Okay, if you have been following me for any amount of time here on the site you know I have a true affinity to anything sheer. This week’s Undies of the Week are no different. It is N2N Sheer Mesh Pouch Boxer N10. I love everything about this boxer. It has an awesome pouch, low cut waist, full leg coverage and IT IS SHEER! J
The N2N Underwear collection is created from a soft stretch sheer net fabric. It features their signature pouch which provides comfort, support and enhances your profile.
The boxer is made of 90% Nylon and 10% Spandex. You can get it in different colors like Black, White, Brown and Nude. You can find them at NuWear.com for $19.00. Check it out and check out all the other great sheer undies while you are there.

Here is more info about the awards:
The Shorty Awards honor the best people and organizations on Twitter. These unique awards are for the Twitter community, by the Twitter community. Online voting is public and democratic, culminating in an awards ceremony that recognizes the winners in 27 official categories as well as those in brand new crowd-sourced ones.
The second annual Shorty Awards nomination process has begun! In January 2010, the community is invited to nominate Twitter users for excellence over the past year. The awards recognize each content creator’s entire body of work, not just an individual tweet. Nominations are made by sending a tweet, whether it’s through this site or on Twitter.
In February, the nominees will be narrowed down to five finalists in each category. Winners will be determined by a combination of popular vote and by the members of the new Real-Time Academy of Short Form Arts & Sciences. An awards ceremony, complete with 140-character acceptance speeches, will be held in March in New York City.
Looking for something comfortable, colorful, and new for your drawer? Look no further than Whittall & Shon! You may have heard of this small operation out of New York, but if you haven’t, you are seriously missing out on some of the most comfortable underwear and clothing accessories around. I personally found Whittall & Shon very early on in my underwear career and I’m extremely happy I did.
Some styles have names, but others just have numbers. I have two pairs of the 161 Trim Square Cut style. I ordered the Turquoise-Orange from DealByEthan.com, and due to an inventory error, I received the Brown-Blue style. I was a little bummed at first since I really wanted the bright colors of the Turquoise-Orange, but the second I put them on, they could have been any color in the world.
The feel of the material in this underwear is seriously unrivaled…made of 95% Microfiber and 5% Lycra. Let me put this out there…I love microfiber. Love it, love it, and love it! Coming from a car guy who uses microfiber towels to clean his car at car shows, I just love the material and the fact that a company will put it into its underwear is amazing. Call me bias, but I feel the use of microfiber makes this underwear some of the most comfortable around.
Not only does the underwear feel amazing, but it also looks amazing. The 161 comes in almost totally opposite colors of the spectrum: brown and blue, turquoise and orange, yellow and blue, and white and red. It is amazing how a simple, two color design can produce such an aesthetically pleasing product. The piping around the edges is one color and the fill is the other. Such a simple design will get instant attention at the locker room, the club, or wherever you find it appropriate, or not, to strip down and show off your undies!
 
There’s more to talk about with the 161 from Whittall & Shon. Some of us care about the feel, some the color, and others care about the fit and the support. Worry not! I’ve got you covered, and so does the 161. It has a seriously amazing fit. I continue throwing around the word “amazing”, and you may think I don’t mean it. But I seriously do! There is absolutely no bunching at all, especially on the legs. The boxer brief is still a boxer brief at the end of the day; it won’t be a brief when it’s time for bed. That is even the case for someone like me who is constantly moving around, in all sorts of positions. Support is also good with the 161. Though there isn’t a dedicated pouch, there is still plenty of support for the valuables. It feels right and far from cramped.
If you’ve managed to stay along for this journey, and are still interested, definitely give Whittall & Shon a try. They are available from their online store at whittallandshonmen.com or from several online retailers, such as dealbyethan.com.

My recent assignment was to try out a new pair of Australian briefs. We’ve written lately about the emergence of the Australians in the men’s underwear market. We are very happy to see them since they are bringing about changes in the way we see underwear. It is also good that the world is getting more choices than the ones we had become so familiar with. It’s funny that years ago, the slate was clean and underwear had many directions it could take. Today, that slate has become full of competition as designers from around the world embark on discoveries in new designs and materials to make the modern man comfortable and sexy…all while wearing one pair of underwear. One of those would be the Ristefsky Macheda Dare Brief.
Started by its founders Stephen Ristefsky and Vincent Macheda in 2005, Ristefsky Macheda (RM) has blended European and Australian style to create a bold line of underwear and beachwear. Both designers are of European decent and have placed themselves into Australian fashion and expanding their vision to the rest of the world. We welcome RM to the world of men’s fashion and plead for their creativeness in supplying men with innovative clothing.
I, like many others, enjoy the feeling of opening a new package of underwear. One could say that opening this package meant opening opportunities…for feeling sexy or well supported. This pair of red/white Dare Briefs did not disappoint in offering those opportunities. For a size small, the briefs fit true to size. There was no bunching, no looseness, and no cut marks on either the waist or the leg. This brief comes with a fly opening for those that chose to use it. I am not a fly user since I feel it causes the underwear to lose much of its pouch shape when stretched out. If you do use it, be sure to notice the width of material you will be fishing through; it’s rather wide. The material used in the Dare Brief is 95% cotton and 5% Elastane. The brief can be washed in the washer (thankfully) and it is not recommended to tumble dry or iron them.
There is no defined pouch used on this brief. I thought I was going to have to position differently than I normally would, but surprisingly, I was able to dress comfortably downward. The material is stretchy enough to supply a nice fit to the crotch. The legs were not tight and the waistband fit perfectly with a width at 1.75 inches (4.45 cm). The rear had ample coverage and did not move out of place. If I had gone to the gym, I am sure these would have been perfectly fine while running or lifting weights.
All together, I am very impressed with the RM Dare Brief. The designers did very well in producing an article of clothing they should be proud for anyone to wear. The brief satisfied all my expectations in what a great pair of underwear should provide its wearer.

Our Friends at Planet Undies sent us another new line that we had to share with you! Its the Bruno Banani Optimist line. With the last year being such a bad year for many people, the line has come out with something that may give us a bit more Karma because we will be thinking good thoughts! The line is available in either yellow or black. They also have have smiley faces on them and OPTIMIST written across the butt. I think they are just fun and maybe what we need to keep us thinking good thoughts about not just the economy but life in general! This is some understated fun in undies. It’s not over the top. Imagine wearing these to the gym, taking down your pants just to see a smiley face! Although with my personality I may need a pessimist one, or maybe these will change my outlook!
