Friday, August 5, was National Underwear Day. I had everything ready to go and then, I forgot. Yes I forgot, working a new job and doing the site has kept me super busy. But from now on I will put it on the Calendar and not forget! But instead of an underwear day, don’t you think we should have an underwear month? Celebrate the joys of underwear for an entire month.
You could have a week for Briefs, Boxer Briefs, Trunks, Bikinis/Thongs. And that week wear that type of pair. I know we have readers with immense underwear collections who could do this. Just a thought, I would love to know what you guys think about doing an underwear month.
But in the mean time Freshpair.com, the sponsor of National Underwear Day is giving away 5,000 pairs of underwear! Yes we said it right. That is a massive amount of undies. Last year they did the same thing. To enter, go over to the Fresh Pair site!
It’s always intriguing to learn of new manufacturers who are investigating new technologies and applying them to stylish and functional new fabrics. Having the opportunity to review my first pair of Ergowear underwear, I did a little research on the company and this specific pair—the InCopper Max Premium Boxer. This particular line offered by Ergowear is differentiated by the antimicrobial fabric that they call InCooper. This material was specifically developed by Ergowear and takes advantage of the latest innovation in copper antimicrobial year technology to help protect your skin against infections by microorganisms. According to Ergowear, the powerful germicidal properties of this fabric do not decrease over time or with washing cycles.
In terms of construction and esthetics, the boxer is designed with a three-dimensional pouch with the intent of offering an exclusive shape-enhancing and yet comfortable lifting effect. As shown in the picture, the pair comes in a thin pin stripping fabric in a flesh tone color. In my opinion, a flesh tone color is not flattering on any skin tone regardless of body shape or size. The pair I tested was well constructed and fit quite well with no problems to mention. The 1 1/3” waistband offers extra support and a more athletic look. The Ergowear logo travels across the front of the waistband and thus far, continues to keep its shape after multiple washes.
My only concern with this pair, besides the color choice, is the manufacturer’s ability to create something that is both fabric technology forward and crafting a boxer that further enhances the pouch that is successful—stick with one or the other. These contrived attempts to create an enhancing pouch leave a lot to be desired. It appears that every manufacturer is on the same bandwagon which unfortunately is the current trend. Either you’re anatomically blessed or you’re not. Gentlemen, feel comfortable in your own body and let a good pair of functional underwear speak for itself. What’s next, two little Viagra pills with each pair?

Today’s Brief Distraction is from Top Drawers, here is what they sent us!
We’ve updated our Topdrawers Underwear Model Gallery at Topdrawers.com with a new look and some great new photos of our favorite male models who have worked with us over the years since we opened out doors way back in 1992. Our latest cover-boy is uber-hottie Benjamin Godfre – who has made quite an impact with his gorgeous photos!
We’ve also received some awesome new low-rise swimwear from Brazilian menswear designer Tulio. With sporty details and low-cut body-conscious styling these hot men’s swimsuits will be sure to turn heads on the beach this summer.
After spending three months in Italy, David came back to the states with a new respect for underwear. He fell in love with the style, comfort, and fabrics used in European underwear. Since being back in the U.S., he has developed a fondness for high quality underwear such as 2xist, Go Softwear, and by far his favorite, an Italian company, Intimissimi.
Keith is a boxers kind of guy. Although he has a soft spot for Ginch Gonch, his favorite underwear is whatever comes in a 3 or 4 pack from Target. David hopes this will change with his introduction to some of the finer threads that he and Keith will be reviewing. After reviewing their first two pairs, Keith is starting to realize how much of his life he’s wasted wearing bargain brand underwear.
This seamless underwear line features a series of mesh patterns from Jamaican to Signature. We were given the Jamaican and Square patterns to review. Both patterns are available in a variety of colors. The Jamaican Mesh is available in Euro Gray (reviewed), Modena Red, Jet Black, Midnight Blue, Sky Blue, Iris Yellow and Paparazzi Pink. The Square Mesh is available in Black (reviewed), Amparo, Lily Green, Vanilla, Euro Gray, and Sky Blue. The array of vibrant and subtle color choices allows for anyone to find a pair that will meet their tastes.
As for fit and function, we were hesitant to wear them for an extended amount of time given their mesh appearance. Who really enjoys skin to jean friction? The Jamaican Mesh, once put on, stretches to have an open mesh that makes skin visibility quite high and quite sexy. The Square Mesh does not open as much, but shows just as much skin. This exposure made us wary of putting them on under a pair jeans or another harder fabric. However, fears aside, we were pleasantly surprised at the comfort and support they provided. They have no visible pouch in the front, as they are a unisex brief, but were able to expand where necessary to allow for comfort. A more endowed individual, however, may have difficulty getting a proper fit. There are two sizes to the briefs and possible larger size would accommodate more in the front. That limitation in size choice does lead one to believe that these are meant for smaller individuals. The material combination of 95% Nylon and 5% Spandex is quite breathable and, to the touch, feels as you would expect an Italian Jaquered product to feel. All in all they are a comfortable, attractive and very sexy pair of underwear.
Pros:
Attractive (Sexy)
Comfortable
Breathable
Ultra Soft Fabric
Cons:
Hand Wash Only
Lack of Sizing Options

Take these out of the box and you’ll swear they look like you have had them a lifetime looking worn and tattered. Baskit‘s Burnout collection are made of a special cotton polyester blend that creates a worn-in look and feel, mimicking a vintage t-shirt. Casual and cool but superiorly constructed, each pair features ultra soft and ultra thin fabrics that get even better with time. Available in black and white as a brief or a trunk.
We bring you more pics from Tom Cullis. These are ones that feature some of Timoteo’s awesome new undies and gear. The work is amazing. Look for more!
