UNB Tim’s Recommendation: It’s a great jock for running errands or a day at work. I am not sure I would wear it to the gym or active. I could see it under a suit or a night out. The fabric will be something I think most guys will love. This will be a pair I plan to wear often.
One of the pairs we received from Andrew Christian is the BLOW Gilded Jock. It is one I really wanted to try. I really liked the look of the jock and the fabric. The previous review of the FUKR Net Brief, I hoped it lived up to or even exceeded that review.
The jock didn’t disappoint. It was probably one of the most comfortable pairs I have tried from Andrew Christian. The pouch is made out of 95% Cotton 5% Spandex blend. It was super soft. It really felt awesome on. The pouch was supportive and not too tight. A lot of sports jocks can be super tight. This one let things fall naturally and comfortably.
I wore the BLOW Gilded Jock on a very hot day. In Atlanta, we were blessed with 90-degree weather in September. This was a great choice for the day. I wore it to a job where I was outside and in the car a lot. The jocks material and design kept me cool. I was really happy about that. One design element I really like is the strap design. It’s not a strap sewn onto the waistband. The design has a solid fabric sewn into the waistband. Then the leg straps attached. This kept the straps in place.
The sizing is pretty spot on. Again, I never had an issue with Andrew Christian sizing. They have had a consist ant sizing over the years. Just make sure you double check the size guide for the exact sizes. The XL I received fit pretty well.
Lastly, is the design. I really like the solid black with gold trim. The center seam is gold as well as the waistband BLOW writing. Black and Gold is a classic combination. It also comes in white and red.
