For Today’s Brief Distraction I decided to get one that I loved from Pipe Underwear. This is one from the 2008 collection. But I think it is def worth revisiting. I hope you enjoy

Review: Andrew Christian Show It Retro

Andrew Christian is probably the brand that has a chance to make designer underwear mainstream. Usually, I really like the brand because it fits and feels great. This pair looks great, but I did have a few issues with the pouch technology. Those issues aside, it was a pretty good pair of underwear. If you love pouch underwear that makes you use the pouch, then you’ll love this pair.

Like usual, the fabric is 90% Cotton and 10% Spandex. That’s always a good combination. I really enjoy the piping on the side. The waistband is also comfortable with the Anti-Muffin technology.

I put these through the daily grind and I was actually a bit disappointed. I know underwear companies these days keep putting pouches in underwear. Frankly, I do not know why. I find them to be terribly annoying and extremely uncomfortable. I only know of a few companies, or pairs even, that manage to get it right. If you have the pouch design, you need to make it so that you don’t have to use the pouch if desired.

That being said, it’s still a pretty decent pair of underwear. Like I said before, if you like the pouch, then you’ll probably love this pair. If you don’t like the pouch, then you won’t. It’s all up to the wearer.

Review: Croota White Austar BAS01

Summer 2010 is upon us. I sure hope you have something exciting to wear to the beach and the pool this year. If you don’t, there’s no need to worry! There is still hope coming to you from Croota.

The White Austar sports some pretty awesome designs. Each section has some sort or writing or logo, giving you a total of four to complete a seriously awesome look. It’s a great looking pair and though white swimwear has a special place in my heart, this pair has an even more special place where it’s well deserved.

Like the other pair of Croota swimwear I have, this pair is made of 85% cotton and 15% Spandex. It has what I think is something to protect the privates from showing when the suit gets wet. With that nifty add-on, it’s a really comfortable swimsuit. You should check out this pair. With its great price, you will definitely want to add it to your collection.

Today’s Brief Distraction is from Karim Konrad. He sent me a bunch of great new pics! I hope you will enjoy them. He does some really fun work. !

INTRODUCING THE NASTY PIG TAKEDOWN JOCKSTRAP

Masculine, sexy and athletic are the words that come to mind for all Nasty Pig jockstraps but they kicked it up with the all new Takedown Jock surpassing their standard of excellence and as to be expected, they are now available on Jockstrap Central.

This jock has incredible styling using their iconic Nasty Pig pig logo front and center with complimentary contrasting dual racing stripes both down the center of the pouch and across the waistband. Complimentary piping edging the jockstrap pouch finishes off the whole design for a touch of pure class. It’s those little details that set Nasty Pig apart from the rest.

Incredible styling aside, like all Nasty Pig jockstraps that have come before, the Takedown Jock is one of the most comfortable and well made jockstraps you’ll ever own – made with a super soft durable ribbed cotton with just a hint of spandex to maintain the perfect fit. It also includes a super plushed 1 and 3/4 inch waistband with 3/4 inch leg straps to keep your boys all happy and in place.

The Takedown jock comes in three slick variations – red and black, white and black, and yellow and black so make sure you get over to Jockstrap Central and grab all three!”
