What is the Scale of Sultry?
It is SwampButt Underwear’s more honest way to describe game-day heat—combining temperature, humidity, sunlight and how quickly fabric dries.
Why stadium conditions matter
Kickoff time, sunshine and whether a venue is indoors can completely change the experience. The live football forecast keeps those details together.
Don’t let your underwear lose Week 1.
SwampButt Underwear is designed for the heat, the humidity and every overtime.
Free shipping on orders of $35 or more.
The Scale of Sultry is an informational and entertainment tool, not an official weather warning. Follow local authorities and venue guidance during dangerous heat or severe weather.
