Vin Diesel, a former bouncer, created his own fame in much the same way Edward Burns did: He produced and starred in his own low-budget productions that went on to major film festivals. After critical acclaim in "Saving Private Ryan" and "Boiler Room", Diesel set the stage for mega-stardom with the "Riddick", "Fast and the Furious", and "xXx" franchises. His shaved head, powerful physique and quiet-but-imposing personality are common to many of his characters. In "xXx", the defining character Xander Cage is an even more driven version of this persona with nothing to lose, making this an ultimate signature role for Vin Diesel.

For your consideration is a pair of thermal underwear pants worn by Vin Diesel in the role of Xander Cage in "xXx". It was used by the main character in a defining film. Celebrity underwear is very hard to come by. Especially screenworn and screen visible underwear. This pair of thermal underwear pants was worn by Diesel as Xander in several scenes over several days. They were likely worn for warmth as the underwear of choice by the lead actor who was also the executive producer. These are 100% pure knitted silk in black with a boxer-style fly in good screenworn condition. The size is "M". The pants are marked "Xander" inside by the costumer and they come with 2 Certificates of Authenticity. Because they were washed and worn several times during production, the black silk is slightly faded. We are guessing that these were selected by Diesel as everyday wear because they are thin (not bulky under wardrobe) and they provided warmth at a very cold location. They are readily seen is several scenes over the waistband of his light brown trousers as well as a pair of leather pants. They do show signs of wear including some pilling on the legs at the thighs and fading from repeated washing and wearing. It is unclear whether these were washed after the last wearing or not. As you can see in the photo below, this sexy silk Vin Diesel-worn underwear is also rather sheer. $229.
