There is nothing more patriotic than an all American made piece of underwear that only comes in red, white and blue. There is also nothing more patriotic than a great 97% Cotton 3% Spandex jock strap that just screams “please wear me on the playing field.” This strap from Pistol Pete is a true jock that is meant for its purpose, support and comfort!
Wearing this piece for a full day was not as great as I had hoped, however. It is a great piece minus the slight roll which the pouch edge seems to do occasionally. This role causes the sharp edge of the pouch (a striking design from a visual standpoint) to cut into the inner thigh. Once laid back flat, however, the piece returns to its wonderful comfort.
This piece provides comfort, sex appeal, support, and a striking image. Though it may only come in a few colors, it is packed with possibilities. This is a piece of underwear for the American athlete in all of us. A definite must for any playing field. Buy one for the low price of only $18 and play ball!

This pair was furnished for review by Pistol Pete.
 We are gearing up for Swim season (and yes pun is intended). UnderGear has released the new BodyTech Swim Collection for 2012. The new line mixes classic board shorts with swim briefs, so no matter which style you like you will be able to find something!
This is what UnderGear had to say about the collection. “We’re proud to announce the launch of our new Body Tech swimwear line, available online now! For years we’ve carried the Body Tech underwear and apparel line at UnderGear. Noted for bold underwear designs, Body Tech takes the plunge into designer men’s swimwear with these fashionable board shorts, swim briefs, and swim trunks featuring an eye-catching line up of engineered stripes.”

 When you ask about the perfect swimwear, you don’t think of a Canadian company for Swimwear. However, Skmpeez came onto the men’s swimwear scene in 2008. “SKMPEEZ was launched by two best friends in the summer of 2008. One, a designer, the other a businessman both with a love for fun in the sun and traveling.”
It’s been over a year since we saw the last line for Skmpeez, and they have come back into the swimwear scene andd also released underwear! The current swimwear line consists of:
- Bandz – swimbriefs
- Eruoz – a cross between swim briefs and Square Cut
- Squarez – square cut
- Shortz – swim shorts.
You maybe asking why should you wear Skmpeez? You should if you love different and original swimwear. These suits are not in solids or stripes. They have bold designs and bright colors. Each different styles have designs with a few carry over designs. One in almost every collection pays homage to the Canadian heritage with the Canuck, a take on the Canadian flag.
We can’t go into all the styles here but make sure you go over to the Skmpeez site to check them all out!
