A Portuguese super-fan reckons his team are sure to win the Euros – because he’ll be wearing his lucky underpants.
Miguel Orioli, 28, has struck gold every time his national team has played this tournament because he’s been wearing his designer kecks – with a cute duck pattern.
Miguel knows his team won’t be lame ducks in the final thanks to his fancy Drake & Hutch tailored underpants.
The language tutor, who lives in Porto, Portugal, will be watching the match on Sunday evening surrounded by family and friends.
He said: “Ever since I bought these pants, my luck has turned around.
“And I decided to wear them every time Portugal play, and they’ve been incredibly supportive.
“Just like the underpants, my team has never let me down, and I’m certain they’ll come out on y-front.”
The Italian woven underwear – which is made to measure for executive clients – was designed by young British label Drake & Hutch.
Each pair of handmade briefs contains panels specifically designed to fit the measurements of the wearer – and even contain a suit-like lining printed by hand in East London to make them super fancy.
Drake & Hutch have teamed up with Jermyn St. tailors, widely regarded as some of the finest in the world, to create the exclusive underwear with the same attention to detail that would be found on a bespoke suit.
The £35 boxer briefs, made from ultra-soft pima cotton, are only available online, but come in sizes dependent upon the wearer’s waist – and ‘how the gentleman dresses.’
Founder Peter McGuinness said: “We know our impressive underwear has never let any of our customers down, and it’s good to know that they’ve never let a nation down so far.”
