Can Underwear Bring You Luck in the New Year?

The question was posed in the headline. But does wearing yellow underwear bring you good luck or good fortune in the New Year? It is believed by countries in South America. Columbia is one that believes this ritual for the next year. It’s similar to those of us in the south that believe if you eat black eyed peas and greens it will do the same.

The pair above is from International Jock and it’s the 2xist Color No-Show Trunk. The one thing I noticed while writing this post, there are not a lot of yellow pairs online. I saw some from Diesel, 2xist and ManView. So if you are going out last minute to find some, I’d suggest the 2xist because you can get them from major department stores. I know that Macy’s does carry the Color line, but it’s not in every store. If not, think about it next year, it will make your underwear selection easier!

The pair I am planning to wear I got from Erogenos. It’s a super fun pair and it’s by ManView Bodywear (see the picture to the right). it’s called the Manview Bodywear 69 Brief. I thought, “Hey I got nothing to loose by wearing yellow underewar.” It’s just something different then we usually do here in the U.S.

No matter what you do, we hope you have an incredible New Year. Keep it safe yet fun and enjoy the night. Post a comment here if you do anything for new years like this, especially if it involves underwear!

 WHO’S YOUR PAPI?

Papi’s stretch Jock have arrived at Jockstrap Central. These fashion jocks are not only stylish but so comfortable you won’t want to wear anything else. Luckily Papi knew you’d feel that way so they bundled them in twos so you’d have one to wear while the other is in the wash.

Here’s the details: The Pouch is contoured and constructed of two panels with a center seam. It’s almost all cotton with a hint of spandex not only for a better fit but to provide an extra touch of soft comfort.

The 1 1/4 inch comfort waistband is the perfect blend of sturdiness and stretch with a high thread-count weave in black and silver forming a stylish stripe running around the waistband with a front centered Papi logo. The 3/4 inch soft elastic legstraps provide the support to keep things in place yet stretchy enough to prevent the digging in found in many other jocks.

Once again, this is a 2 pack. They come in either black or white. You get two stylish and comfortable Papi jockstraps for one great price.

Review: Valentino’s G-Sting

My name is Sean.  I live, play and work in the design industry in Boston. I have been wearing thongs for years! I originally fell in love with the thought of wearing something that was barely there, but then came to appreciate the functional design of such a garment. I wear thongs during my day-to-day life, especially in the summer and almost always at the gym. Thongs are perfect for the gym because they do not restrict any motion and there is very little bunching – as an avid yogi and runner, this is a MUST! I also wear thongs out on the town, not to show off, but to go unnoticed under light colored pants.

Today I am reviewing the NDS G-Sting from ABC Underwear. This particular G-String comes in a variety of colors—I just so happen to be wearing the red one. The packaging was fairly no-frills, but I was still excited to try them on! The G-String had the standard string sides with an adjustable pouch. Upon first inspection, the construction looked pretty good – almost as if it were meant to double as a swimsuit on account of the nylon/elastane blend. The label is a black/silver tag placed on the front of the pouch at the top, which I could do without as it cheapens the look. The sizing on this model was small/medium and was displayed on a large tag attached at the top of the interior of the pouch.  This posed a problem for someone of my size.  I am 6’1 with a size 30 waist, meaning smalls usually fit just right.  This small/medium was definitely too large unless it was meant to be worn higher than standard low-rise underwear. Sometimes being skinny is a curse!

I decided to wear them out for dinner and drinks with friends. I put the G-String on and inspected things in the mirror before setting out. The pouch is contoured, presumably to fit the natural anatomy of a man. This had it pros and cons—the cons not being noticeable until I was out and about.  While it felt as if my “fellas” were allowed to swing, so to speak, there was a lack of support and a little too much swing of the pouch while walking. This didn’t offer up a nice display of ones assets and the pouch tended to change size as it was not securely fastened to the waist string. The waist of the pouch tended to bunch after walking from the restaurant to the bar and required some adjusting throughout the night. While it was nice to not feel confined, the pouch offered a little too much space and swing and was a little uncomfortable as the night went on. While I wasn’t thrilled with the G-String, it was fun to play with the size of the pouch!

 

Likes:

  • Good construction,
  • fun color.

 

Dislikes:

  • Adjustable pouch bunched and had a strange contour, itchy tags, slightly too big in the waist, back strap and pouch,

Review: Lobbo Cotton G-string

I was asked to review the Lobbo Cotton G-string from abcunderwear.com. I know many of you guys aren’t into thongs or g-strings, but I if you were ever tempted to try one out, then this would be the perfect g-string for a newbie.  It is a basic g-string. The pouch is large enough to hold everything in it without smooshing you. It is like a pair of boxer briefs on your junk with elastic string holding it in place. I found the pouch’s width to be great in proportion to my body. I wore it to the gym, lounged in it at home and even slept in it. I own several g-strings and did not think that this one was any better or any worse. The only thing I thought was lacking was the quality of the pouch’s fabric. I personally prefer cotton to be a softer than the material ABC used.

Are most of you going to wear this to the gym? Probably not. Will I wear it to the gym again? You bet! The price on abcunderwear.com is great if you really want to get one or if you are curious about trying underwear that is out of your normal comfort zone. Your girlfriend or boyfriend will love to see you in something sexy or skimpy. Mine does!

Pros-

  • Inexpensive
  • good starter g-string for newbies

Cons-

  • cotton cold be softer
