In Bruno Banani

Brand Intro: Bruno Banani from Germany

November 16, 2017 2 Comments

There are some interesting marketing campaigns with the brand Bruno Banani that I’ll touch on a bit later in the post. Bruno Banani is a German brand, so some of my research on them was translated from German. The brand was founded in 1993 by Wolfgang Jassner who already worked for various textile companies. Jassner saw there was a gap in the underwear market with no “young, groovy brand” in men’s underwear.

Bruno Banani sells more than men’s underwear and swimwear. They also sell many other items including women’s underwear too. They granted licenses for fragrances, watches, bags, sunglasses, hats, and even towels. Also, they sell shoes, jackets, socks, and shirts. All of the products for both men and women. Let’s look at the women’s underwear a little first. They have a pretty good selection for the ladies, which you don’t find quite as much from a brand that offers both. Most of the time it is a couple of styles and a couple of fabric options for one sex and then a bunch for the other. They still offer more for men than women. They offer women’s styles in thongs, bikinis, hipsters, briefs, and bras. They don’t offer any women’s swimwear though.

Let’s go over the men’s selection. For us, they have the boxer brief, the more modern hipster, long johns, and the boxers. On the skimpier side, you have sports briefs, which vary in side widths. You have bikinis that they call tangas, and then there are the strings or traditional thongs. The boxer briefs and hipster are a good part of their men’s underwear makeup. For their swimwear offering, they have Bermuda, which is their knee-length shorts. Then they call swim shorts by boxers. Hip shorts are in the square-cut family with the shortest inseams. The other square cuts are called shorts. They’re a little longer on the inseam, but most appear not to make it to mid-thigh. Then there is Retro, which is kind of like sungas or square cuts without an inseam. Their swim briefs are called mini. They’re similar to cut to the sports briefs. Skimpier than a full swim brief, but not quite what I would call a bikini. And lastly, they have thongs or strings for swimwear. They pretty much have something for every guy in underwear and swimwear.

Bruno Banani marketing strategy is one to get themselves notice. They started that with a bold motto or slogan of “Not For Everybody.” When you see that does it make you wonder why it’s not for everyone? Like I said a bit earlier, from a style standpoint I would say they could be for everyone. If you go with price, then maybe not. I would put them in the premium price area at typically $25-$35 a pair for underwear. If you want boxers, you can get them under $20.

They staked claim to be the first designer brand in space. They outfitted one of the astronauts on the MIR space station in their underwear. Bruno Banani adventure tested their underwear in a 10,000-kilometer adventure by Achill Moser from Jerusalem to Zimbabwe. Another extreme adventure test for their underwear was an Eco-Challenge. The German team at the challenge was outfitted in the “Air Active” collection in their 500-kilometer journey through the Australian jungle. There are a few other marketing campaigns they talk about. You can read more about them here.

There is one last marketing campaign I want to touch on that I think is a pretty bold one. The German luge team took a Tongan who was aspiring to be the first one from the country to make it into the Winter Olympics under their wing. This luger had the same name as the German underwear brand Bruno Banani. Of course, this was not his real name, but just a marketing hoax that was eventually uncovered. This brought criticism and attention to the brand, which had to be the goal of the campaign. The luger’s real name is Fuahea Semi, and there is a movie about him called “Being Bruno Banani.” Check out more about the movie on the IMBd website.

As you can see they have done some interesting marketing to build their brand recognition. Have you tried the Bruno Banani brand? Let us know your thoughts on them.

Show Me Your Drawers! Part 2

November 15, 2017 No Comments

UNB writers have previously discussed different ways of organizing an underwear drawer. But the problems in organizing underwear also arise when trying to keep straight a growing swimwear collection. Here’s what I did recently to try to contain the clutter and ease the process of selecting the appropriate swimwear for my chosen watersports activity.

I started with a Skubb drawer organizer from Ikea ($7.99). It’s inexpensive, and the seven divided compartments of varying sizes helped group different swimwear by style. The organizer also takes up only two-thirds of my drawer, leaving a large additional space for more swimwear. Here’s a look at the final outcome:

And here’s how I got there:

A. I first folded lengthwise my three pairs of swim trunks and put them stacked in the open space to the left of the Skubb organizer.

B. I folded and placed my single pair of board shorts in the top left square of the organizer. These are Andrew Christian board shorts, so they’re neither as thick or as long as most board shorts.

C. One pair of square cut trunks resides in section C. (The other two pairs of square cut trunks went to section G.) There’s room in section C for at least 1-2 more pairs.

D. The sections marked D hold swim briefs that would be appropriate to wear at any beach or public pool. I folded and turned each brief so that the back faces the front of the drawer. Folding and storing in this manner provides the largest possible view of each brief’s pattern when later selecting which suit to wear.

E. The small, top right corner of the organizer holds swim thongs. I don’t often wear these, but folding and stacking them so that the pouch faces front makes choosing easier when the right wearing opportunity does arise.

F. I utilized the organizer’s two medium sized sections to store the swim briefs and bikinis that might be too immodest to wear to the neighborhood pool. (These swim briefs typically have a profile pouch or are custom-made swimwear from designers such as Muscle Skins, Beach-N-Dance, or Jovana Design.) As like before, I folded each so that the rear of the suit faced forward, making the pattern more visible and easing a later search for a specific suit.

G. Finally, I folded and placed two of the more modest square cut trunks next to my all-locations-appropriate swim briefs. The square cut trunks in this section lack the profile pouch of the square cut found in section C. (Think “more James Bond” and less “Magic Mike.”)

In total, the Skubb organizer provided an inexpensive solution for organizing and storing over 35 pairs of swimwear of varying styles. All my swimwear had previously been just stuffed randomly in the drawer. I am pleased with results of my attempt at organization, and I hope I can maintain this level of order through the end of next summer.

To Subscribe or not Subscribe

November 13, 2017 1 Comment

Everywhere you look these days, every company, brand and more seem to have their own underwear subscription service. Wait we are pleased to announce…. Not really! We aren’t planning a subscription service. The question is are they worth the money you pay? Will you get pairs that you will actually wear? If you’re paying $20+ a month you want something you will wear on a regular basis. We have a few words of advice when picking an underwear subscription service.

Go with a brand

If you love a brand and they have a service it is worth looking into. First, you know the brand and the quality. The designs, prints, and fabrics won’t come in and you go “what the hell is this?” It’s more likely the brand will send you similar to what you already love. Two brands doing subscriptions are MeUndies and Andrew Christian. MeUndies will send you an awesome print each month in the style you love. Thiers is pretty straightforward. The designs/style will not change. If you want to try some different things Andrew Christian can vary the line they send in a brief. You could get an Almost Naked, trophy boy or more. Pouches could have the Show-it Tech or they could be mesh. Andrew Christian has a lot of different things they could send a month.

Get something new with a retailer

If you love a style such a brief or jock. Sign up with a retailer doing a subscription. They will bring you a new brand every month. This can be good and bad. It can be good because it can expose you to a lot of brands you may not have worn before. You could find a new favorite. On the flip side, if you hate a brand you may get a pair in the subscription. It’s a gamble you will have to take! Most retailers will try to get the best value for the consumer. Always follow up with a brand if they send you something you love or hate. Feedback is always good.

Try something out of the box

Some subscriptions make you pick a style and stick with it. Others will send you anything from a boxer brief to a thong. If you want to expand your horizons why not let the luck of the draw dictate what you get. Or, if you love all kinds of undies, this is perfect for you. You will get sent, randomly, whatever pair they have that month in whatever style. It can be like Christmas and not knowing what you’re going to get till you open the package!

It’s about the money

The last thing to consider is the cost. They vary in costs. It’s smart to shop around and see who is offering the best deal. The cheapest isn’t the best if you’re paying $5 or more for shipping for each pair. Looking into shipping costs is a must. It will add to your subscriptions overall cost. Next, are you signing up for an ongoing monthly basis that you have to cancel or is it for a set

Next, are you signing up for an ongoing monthly basis that you have to cancel or is it for a set time? Double check before you order to see which you are getting. You may only want to try for 3 months but sign up for a year or more. If it is an ongoing subscription, is it easy to cancel your subscription?

If you want to reward yourself I think an underwear subscription is a great way to do it. Shop around and see what the costs are for each of the ones you are interested in purchasing. Most will have some of their past selections. It should give you an overall view of the service. After you deciede on your service determine how long you want the subscription. And then sit back and enjoy as undies show up at your door everymonth!

Fetishwear – Where to start..2017 Edition

November 7, 2017 No Comments

I have a pretty broad definition of fetishwear. It’s anything that I consider skimpy, wild, and out of the ordinary. That could be leather, rubber/latex, lace, pleather, satin and more. Its a market I have seen grow over the last 9 years of running UNB. It’s going more mainstream. Which I think is awesome. You no longer have to go to adult stores to get it. Many sites are starting to carry it along with the mainstays of the underwear world. Here are a few companies to check out!

Gregg Homme – This is one of the pricer brands on the list. It’s not uncommon to pay $30-50 a pair. Their designs and fabric are first class! The skimpy barely there cuts with fabric that seems magical. I say this because when you get some of the pairs you’re like “This is missized. But, it will stretch to fit you and give amazing support. Every year they release two collections.

Cellblock13 – Like a bit of leather inspired gear? Cellblock13 is Timoteo’s brand that mixes the leather, neoprene and harnesses to create an awesome collection. Timoteo has been pushing the designs to create some of the most innovative pairs in the world of fetish. Just when I think he can’t top the last collection he does!

PetitQ – PetitQ is mixing the masculine and feminine. This is a big trend in men’s underwear. The walls are being broken down and you are able to wear whatever you want. PetitQ has always done skimpy well! From the start, they were all about showing off what you have and making you feel great while doing it. The last few collections have seen more lace sneak in the collections. Still looking super hot!

Nasty Pig – They are one of the first fetish brands to go mainstream. They have been the brand around the longest. They have a mix of underwear, fetishwear, denim and more. They have expanded out of the world of just gear. They have some great designs that will make you happy! The fetishwear and underwear are still on point.

BodyAware – One taking the masc/fem to the next level is BodyAware. Not only do they do lace, but also do satin, silk and other fabrics that have been traditionally for women’s lingerie. The designs are also influenced by women’s wear. This brand crosses both gay and straight worlds. From thongs, bodysuits, bikinis and more. The skimpier the better I would say from BodyAware

Maskulo – The last on the list is a brand out of Russia. Yup, we said Russia. Having the issues with gay’s in Russia, you wouldn’t think of them having a leather-like fetish line aimed mainly at gay men. They do a mix of leather and sports gear. When I first saw it, it made me stop and go “Who is this, I MUST KNOW.” Jocks, pants, shirts, singlets and more carry their signature codpieces and padding!

And I could name about 20 more. But these are some of the brands I think are on top of their game right now. We will profile more soon! So stay tuend.

Show us your Drawers!-UNBDustin

November 4, 2017 No Comments

Hi everyone, and welcome to another edition of Show us your Drawers!, a series dedicated to having a look at the underwear drawers of UNB readers and writers. Today we are taking a look at the drawers of UNBDustin. Here is what he has to say:

“I’d love to say my underwear drawer is perfectly folded and organized because half of me is OCD and likes things just so. However, the other half is lazy and can’t be bothered. So first, you’ll see I have a dresser just for underwear. It’s vintage and cool (even the original liner in the drawers) but doesn’t actually hold a lot. I do separate by style: top drawer for thongs and jocks, middle two for briefs and bottom drawer for boxer briefs and boxer shorts. This keeps things easier to find and looking pretty neat. However, with 250+ pairs, they don’t all fit. This is where the other side of me kicks in: a laundry basket with underwear simply folded and stacked in there. It’s not on its way from the laundry – that’s where it lives. The problem with this is that I think I only wear about 10% of my gear because I grab what’s on or near the top. I never make resolutions but I might this year…wear a different pair every day until I’ve gone through my entire collection. If I don’t like wearing them, get rid of them. This will hopefully help me clear things out and make way for new stuff!”

Ergowear celebrates 15 years with a new collection!

November 3, 2017 2 Comments

Ergowear is out with a new collection, called XV, in celebration of its 15 year anniversary! XV is stated as “the most sophisticated version of our exclusive Feel and best-selling Max pouch underwear styles,” and boy does it look it. It really is more than a regular collection. I’d call this collection super-sized, as some pairs have multiple pouch options!

The line is available in the usual range of Ergowear styles: Midcut(Boxer-Brief), Boxer(More like a trunk), Brief, Bikini, and Thong. The Midcut and Boxer are available in both the Feel and Max style pouches. The Max is more of a traditional “push up and out” style ergonomic pouch, while the Feel I less traditional but very popular. The Brief is only available with a Feel pouch, while the Bikini and Thong are only available with the Max instead. All the pairs utilize the same nylon/spandex material, with a 1’5 inch waistband that displays your brand allegiance without being overtly flashy.

These pairs are classy, coming in three colors: White, Navy, and Space Grey, with a contrasting Black or Gold waistband on the White pairs. The Navy and Space Grey changes things up with a same colored waistband.

I think the real key to this line is the mono-colored pairs. The Navy and Space Grey pairs have a great sophisticated look at them in my eyes. I’m hoping to get my hands on some pairs from this line this year, most likely those bearing the Max pouch, as I already own a Max trunk, bikini, and thong, and adore them. So which pair tickles your fancy?Which color is your absolute must have? Let us know in the comments below, email us at info@underwearnewsbriefs.com, or message me on twitter @underweardude. I hope you liked this look into the newest line of one of my favorite brands. Happy birthday, Ergowear, here’s to another 15 years of awesome underwear!

Show us your Drawers – Osgon drawers

November 2, 2017 No Comments

I take a mostly utilitarian approach to underwear organization. My collection consists of more than 175 pairs of everything from the smallest of “anatomical pouches” to traditional boxer shorts. Such a large stock requires using multiple drawers within the chest of drawers, with certain drawers dedicated to specific styles of underwear. I also rotate what I wear within each style so that everything wears (almost) evenly.

For my “show me your drawers” submission, I chose one drawer dedicated to briefs and bikinis and a second drawer dedicated to multiple styles. (Two additional drawers hold the trunks, boxers, undershirts, boot socks, and still more briefs.)

To organize briefs and bikinis, I place them flat in four separate stacks within the drawer. Underwear most recently washed appear on the far right; underwear to be worn next reside front-and-center. As the front stack is depleted, replacements are rotated forward in a counterclockwise fashion. (Pictured are favorites from Andrew Christian, Nasty Pig, Buffed Bod and N2N Bodywear.)

A Skubb drawer organizer from Ikea ($7.99) helps corral socks, g-strings and K’Mando pouches in another drawer. These too are roatated, but certain pairs nonetheless get more wear than others. (Pictured across the top are g-strings from Andrew Christian, Hotline and Gigo, as well as pouches by K’Mando Sport.) The Skubb organizer leaves about five additional inches inside the drawer, providing space for thongs (not pictured).

Avid readers who remember the Fort Troff Sport Trunk review may wonder about athletic gear – compression shorts, running tights, jock straps and swim briefs – that are undoubtedly part of the collection. Well, that’s another story altogether . . . .

Review – HOM Freddy String

November 1, 2017 2 Comments

Rating: 8.6/10

Daily Fit: 8/10
Sizing: 8/10
Construction: 10/10
Styling: 9/10
Daily Performance: 8/10

Pros: Overall a pretty comfortable thong, well made
Cons: Haven’t come across US retailer, so international shipping, limited colors
Recommendation: If it is one that interests you, give it a try. I like Doreanse Euro thong better since the pouch is narrower (Not as roomy as Freddy if you need room though). Plus it is available from a US retailer and even a little cheaper.

The Freddy Thong from HOM has been around for a long time. I’ve been thinking about trying it for years. Thanks to UNBTim, I finally got my chance. I have a few swim bikini briefs from them and a swim thong. All of which I like the fit and style of. The Freddy string is my first pair of HOM underwear. I like to describe this type of a thong as a cross between a g-string and a traditional thong. Also it kind of fits into the v-string category, but without the matching side width to the tail width. Any how it has a 3/16” string that attaches the pouch to the back. You get the traditional thong look in the back when wearing them, but the g-string type tail between the cheeks.

Overall it is a nice thong. I’ve found sometimes I have to get these adjusted right. Once I do they typically stay pretty comfortable to wear and would be a nice everyday thong. I don’t see it being a good one to wear for athletics or something really active. It has the excellent everyday nonworkout time support. I wore it lounging and doing errands and performed well with those activities. The pouch has a center-seamed, so has some contouring. The fabric has stretch and is what I’m going to call full frontal coverage. It should hold most packages within it. The fabric is a blend of 93% cotton and 7% elastance, which I’ve seen different fabric content listed for these. My tag has the stated blend. The sides of these are about one ¼” wide. I find it to be a pretty good fit all the way around in a medium. The size chart says 34-inch waist for medium and 32 inch for a small. I float around 32 and 33, so I say pay attention to the size chart. I’ve seen some recommendations of ordering up a size on them.

The colors selection is very limited that I’ve come across in these. For how long they’ve been around I would think there would be more color options. It seems your choice is red, blue, black, and white. I haven’t come across a US retailer selling the brand HOM, so there is International shipping to get a pair. If you are interested in this style, you may want to check out Doreanse Euro thong. It’s a pretty similar cut, and there are US retailers selling it. Main differences are it is a micro modal fabric, and the pouch isn’t as roomy as the Freddy. Both are good options in this particular style.

Brand: HOM
Made: France
Pair: Freddy String – Blue
Colors: White, Black, Blue, Red
Fabric: 93% Cotton and 7% Elastance
Sizes: XS – XL
Cost: $14.27

Review – Joe Snyder Bulge Boxer

October 31, 2017 2 Comments

I purchased the Joe Snyder Bulge Boxer, which isn’t in line with my normal choice of thong underwear, but I really liked the all day comfort that these offer.

Rating: 8.4/10 (Average of the ratings below)

Daily Fit: 8/10
Sizing: 9/10
Construction: 8/10
Styling: 8/10
Daily Performance: 9/10

Pros:

Super stretchy-soft nylon fabric that stays close to your skin and is very breathable
Roomy unlined pouch accentuates your package while keeping you cool
Comfortable for all-day wear

Cons:

Limited availability in prints
Unlined (if that’s even a con?)

UNB Ryan’s recommendation: I love thong underwear, and until recently I have worn them almost exclusively for the past 15 years or so. However starting to review underwear over the past few months has given me the opportunity (and encouragement) to try different styles and fabrics. I have this same suit in the wet look black fabric, and the red fabric feels like a completely different suit due to the difference in fabric. These are really stretchy, and feel great for all-day wear, whether you’re lounging around the house or following the wife around a shopping mall!

As an underwear reviewer, I shouldn’t be biased to a particular brand, but I LOVE Joe Snyder! They offer styles to appeal to both men and women, which can be used as underwear and swimwear, and they offer cuts from modest to daring. I love the multitude of fabrics and color choices that Joe Snyder offers, and like that all of their suits accentuate the cheeks. While I do normally love to wear thongs, I have been branching out recently and have found many trunks and boxer styles offer a cheeky feel reminiscent of a thong or tanga style. This suit was not entirely out of my comfort zone-I plan to try some brief and jock styles in the future!

I have only worn this pair one day, which was a good test because my wife and I were due to go see a movie and do some shopping afterward. While watching the movie the pair was very comfortable, and I could hardly even notice them. They have an almost natural fit that hugs your skin without being overly constrictive. The pouch holds your package up and is supportive, and is unlined so it keeps you cool all day. While walking around the mall with my wife these performed the same in that they were hardly even noticeable. The bulge pouch does add some to your confidence, and depending on how snug your pants are, can even be noticed through a pair of jeans!

This suit was everything I have come to expect from Joe Snyder. The construction is top-notch, with attention to detail. All of the elastic is positioned to allow for maximum comfort and doesn’t dig or cut into your skin anywhere. Also, the leg openings do not have any elastic, so they just follow the contour of your body and are extremely comfortable for long-term wear. The only thing I don’t care for is the large tag that is present in all of their suits, but it is very easily remedied with a pair of scissors!

Joe Snyder’s line has always had a very consistent fit for me, even between different lines and cuts. This pair is no exception; in fact, they may even feel a little better than some of the others I have in my collection. I have this exact same pair in a black “wet look” fabric, and they don’t have near the elasticity that the red fabric has. These feel great, don’t pull or ride up throughout the day and have just the right amount of give for all-day comfort and support. This pair has a generously sized pouch that fits your anatomy, and has plenty of room to stretch throughout the day to allow for movement and support.

In conclusion, I was overly satisfied with this review, and will likely continue to wear them. The quality is nothing short of what Joe Snyder is famous for, and I will continue to support them! If I had to ask Joe Snyder to change anything about this pair, I would encourage them to design a smaller care tag. If you like cheeky styles, give these a try, you won’t be disappointed

BRAND: Joe Snyder
PAIR: Bulge Boxer
COLORS: The pair I reviewed was in red. Other colors available in the line include yellow, wine, white, turquoise, purple, black, navy, pink, white mesh, black mesh, black lace, white lace, royal, metal black, rainbow, nude, and camo
FABRIC: Red 80/20% Nylon/Spandex blend
SIZES: S-XL

COST: $31.00 through Joe Snyder online store

UndiesGeek explains his mixing masculine and Feminine

October 30, 2017 1 Comment

Growing up I’ve always had a passion for cute and fun underwear. It wasn’t until I was about 17 that I realized there were much more options aside from Hanes briefs and boxers. The excitement I felt when I purchased my first pack of thongs is a feeling I will never forget. It was a brand Target used to carry called BVD. They were very comfortable and the fit was amazing. From that moment on I was hooked on wearing thongs and other sexy underwear.

Moving forward a few years I began to notice the cute patterns and fabrics that women’s underwear were made of. I wondered why I could never find men’s underwear in mesh or lace unless I went to an adult store and even then the choices were unflattering at best. It wasn’t until I met my fiance who also shared a love for underwear almost as much as I did. We would always talk about cute underwear and how women’s underwear and lingerie were always so much sexier than what was out available for men. On my birthday he surprised me with my first pair of panties and they were so sexy that I tried them on instantly. I not only felt so cute but also very sexy in a taboo sort of way. A feeling much different than I would get when I would wear men’s underwear.

For years I have always mixed masculine underwear with feminine lingerie and panties in the privacy of our home. It wasn’t until recently with the support of my fiance that I wanted to share this love of mixing the two with the rest of the world by creating my Instagram account. I was very nervous about putting myself out there like that as I didn’t know the reactions I would get. I was terrified that the feedback would be so negative it would make me want to rethink my love of underwear and lingerie.

I checked my phone constantly to see what reactions I would get and to my surprise the feedback was positive and people loved it.

To be able to mix fabrics such as lace, mesh, lingerie with everyday clothes makes me not only feel better about myself but it empowers me to want to continue to do what I love and be able to share that with others as others have shared that with me. I try to be unique by mixing my everyday geekiness into my photos to give a little insight into my everyday life. To put it plainly, I am just your average Joe. I love video games, movies, comics, working out, and above all else underwear. Whether it be men’s thongs, jocks or women’s panties, and lingerie.

I personally don’t believe that underwear should be confined to either sex but rather be embraced and accepted by both men and women. I personally love seeing other men in panties, lingerie, thongs, and jockstraps. I merely appreciate the male body in all its beauty but something about seeing a body in some sexy underwear just adds that much more to the beauty of it all.

I hope that anyone who follows my Instagram who is curious about trying something new and different should not feel ashamed or embarrassed but rather feel powerful and sexy. If we are confined to societies gender constraints about what masculine and feminine should be rather than what we can make of it than we are not living up to our full potential.

If I can inspire just one person to be able to embrace both their masculinity and femininity than I feel I have done my part.

Sincerely

Hey everyone, and welcome to another edition of Show us your Drawers, where we take a look at a UNB writer or reader’s underwear drawer. Today we have our first reader submission, from Steve. Here is what he has to say:

“Here’s my drawer. I’m up to 43 pairs organized by category of course. Jocks are on the left, then g-strings, thongs, bikinis toward the middle, briefs and finally trunks on the far right. As you can see, I try and mix it up with a variety of colors and patterns.

There are 15 different brands represented, with the top three being Gregg Homme, C-IN2 and JM. My current favorite pair is definitely the teal Grip thong from Gregg Homme. It’s got a really sexy strappy cut-out on one half and detachable buckles.

Love the blog, keep up the great work!”

Thanks so much Steve! Want to be like Steve and show off your collection? Send an email to info@underwearnewsbriefs.com with Drawer in the subject line, along with a picture of your underwear drawer and a paragraph or two about your underwear collection and/or storage system. We look forward to seeing your drawer!

SlickItUp Football pants aren’t just for Football

October 27, 2017 No Comments

SlickItUp is one of my favorite gear companies. They are creative, fun and always go all out in their designs. Some of you guys here love gear, especially sports-inspired gear. One of the newest pairs is the Buttless Football pants. Which are a mix of sports gear and leather?

I say this is a mix of leather and sports gear because from the front it’s very much a pair of football pants. From the back, it’s more like a pair of chaps. Well, a pair of chaps with a thong built in. These are really cool to me. Mixing two things that I really like. Slickitup is known for their creative vision in gear.

Some of you may be asking where would you wear this. Well, if you’re bold! It can be worn to a gear night at a bar. A liberal dress code bar. If you’re like me this would be more for at home and private sessions. I suppose you can pair it with a jersey and watch your favorite team as well. But this isn’t something for a sports bar.

The pants come in two sizes. They are small/medium and medium/large. I’m not typically a fan of sizes together. Being a tall guy and bigger they typically don’t feel tall guys well. Which sucks cause I really love these pants. Currently, they just come in black, but I could see these made in other colors as well.

Slickitup says it’s the mix between the best of sports and fetish wear and I totally agree. They are sexy and hot! While not for every guy, i”m sure we have quite. few who will love them. The Buttless football pants retail for $94 on the SlickItUp site. Make sure you check out all the gear on the site form swimwear, underwear and a great deal of fetishwear.

Hi, guys, it’s Underweardude, back again with another look into the underwear drawers of the internet. Today’s drawer is from yet another UNB writer, The Bottom Drawer! Here is what he has to say:

As you can see from the photo, my drawer is not neat at all. It doesn’t mean there is absolutely no organization to it. I use to fold my underwear and at least stacked them in the drawer. Then I got married and had kids so taking time to fold undies went out the door.

When I did an organization post for my blog I attempted to make my drawer neater. See photo below. The photo doesn’t have all my pairs in the drawer but shows my feeble attempt at some order. What I’ve found from my organization attempts is none of them really helped me find the pair I was looking for. You’d think by the picture of the neat drawer I would be able too. Part of this is probably due to having close to 200 pairs now. Then there is the problem of not keeping the drawer that neat too.

Now I do try to keep a bit of order in the drawer most of the time. I keep pairs that are older or don’t care too much about to one side. These I wear for things like yard work or exercising that can be harder on a pair. The other side for newer pairs and ones I want to keep in decent shape longer. So far all my underwear fits in one drawer, due to them being bikinis and thongs. I’m actually planning on trying to do a purge of the drawer. There are pairs I don’t wear and probably will never wear again that I should stop storing. I’m sure there are some in there that should be retired too.e

I’m hoping the show us your drawer series that Underweardude came up with will give me ideas on improving the messy drawer I have. Maybe with doing an underwear purge and some new organization ideas, it will improve my ability to find the pair I’m looking for quicker. At least when I am actually looking for a particular pair. Come join in on showing us your drawer by emailing us at info@underwearnewsbriefs.com and use Drawer in the subject line. I look forward to reading everyone’s submissions.

PetitQ Breaking the rules of Men’s Underwear

October 19, 2017 No Comments

We got a chance to ask the PetitQ boys some questions about their brand and new collection. We hope you enjoy

You guys have been releasing a lot more collections this year. Why have you been putting out collections about every two months?

We release 8 collections a year in the US and even more in Europe. Starting next week, we will have new products every week on our European website. Now that we have our own sewing shop, it’s easier to release new products. We have so many ideas coming that 2 collections a year was not enough. I also think that the market has changed and online, people want to see new stuff all the time and not many brands are capable of doing it.

The new collection just released has some really sexy lace pairs. How do you transform a feminine fabric into something masculine?

I think that lace trend for men came from Europe where people take more risks and don’t care as much about what masculine should look like and you don’t need to be masculine to be a man. We have customers buying sexy lace thongs telling us their female sex partners love it. Lace is actually very comfortable and brings some softness. You can go 2 ways with lace. You can be very feminine with floral patterns, knots, bikini cuts. Or you can make it more masculine by using lace fabrics with more geometrics patterns and use it for men cuts. To make it look even more masculine, we like to mix it with a harder fabric like pleather like fabrics. This hard and soft mix gives a masculine refinement look.

Producing pairs with cutouts has been one of the signatures of PetitQ, You have a lot more pairs with cutouts? What inspires you to create these pairs?

We do have a lot of cut-outs. In the front, in the back, on the sides. Everywhere. But actually, we rarely sketch products with cut-outs. But then when we try the prototypes, we’re like: ‘this should be open here’. We know some people don’t understand why an underwear should be open but it’s usually here to make the visible parts looking better and take all the attention. Trust us, people will look at your cut out and not at the few extra pounds you haven’t lost yet. Maybe we also have a butt fetish 😉

I love the new Harness in the collection. Especially the red are we going to see more designs featuring harnesses?

Yes, we are going to see more harnesses coming. Honestly, we didn’t see that coming. We used to have many harnesses when we first launched in the US 5 years ago. It’s not easy to make harnesses size wise. You don’t want to have the elastics lose nor look like a roast beef. It took a while for us to be ready to do them by ourselves but now we have a whole collection ready and in production. It was pretty logical to make harnesses, many customers wear our underwear for parties and harnesses are like underwear for your chest, it’s here to show your body and show what you want 😉

You guys also wear your own underwear. I see you posting pictures in the gear online. Do you each have a favorite pair from the new collection?

Yes, we have to wear our underwear. Even though we try the underwear on us when we do the samples, there are things you only realize when you’ve been wearing your underwear all day. It’s also like this that we find new ideas.

Arthus’ favorite is the Redon Brief, the one with the leather-like fabric and lace. The design on the back is really sexy and show just enough of skin

My favorite is the Corlier, it’s like a boxer but open on the back and sides. It also has that balance between the soft lace and the strong leather-like fabric. The pouch is not attached at anything under, like a slingshot, and I like that kind of pouches.

Why should guys wear PetitQ?

If you want something different, playful and of good quality, you should definitely try some PetitQ. We have over 200 different designs, there will always be one that fits you. We really work around the male’s body.

Review Andrew Christian Lace Brief

Review – Andrew Christian Lace Brief

Rating: 9.6/10

Daily fit: 9.5/10
Sizing: 9/10
Construction: 10/10
Styling: 10/10
Daily Performance: 10/10

Pros:

fantastic look and feel
unique styling for men’s underwear
gives your confidence a supercharge

Cons:

fabric doesn’t stretch as much as others
might need to size up
the pouch is a tad snug

Lately, there’s been some talk on this site about lace underwear. I’ve never tried any, but the idea always intrigued me. I feel like I’m pretty open to trying new things with underwear and lace was no different. So when Andrew Christian debuted a line of lace and I was asked if I wanted to review a pair I jumped right in. This was my first time wearing lace, and as far as I know, the first line of lace from Andrew Christian. All I can say is what took us so long?!

I received the lace brief, but there’s also a thong and singlet available. They’re all constructed in black floral lace. Other than the black waistband with the signature ‘Andrew Christian’ logo in metallic silver this brief is constructed entirely of lace. Hold it up to the light and you get the full effect of the stunning lace design. There’s no lining or double layer anywhere. This means everything that contacts your body gets that awesome lace feel. And that feel is a huge plus when it comes to lace. This isn’t a cheap, scratchy lace material. It feels great against your body and has a nice stretch to it. The logo waistband and the pouch give no doubt that this is men’s underwear. I know some guys get hung up thinking lace looks like or can be confused with girls panties, but there’s nothing to worry about with these.

I wore the brief to work which included a lot of desk work. The beauty is I wore it with jeans and boots. The contrast of a masculine look on the outside and a lace brief on the inside was an exhilarating feeling all day. And the way I could feel the lace move against my butt reminded me that this was a special pair. Just wearing lace gave me a huge confidence boost, but feeling it against my skin was also a great bonus.

I’m about a 32-33 waist, and I got these in a medium. The lace has some stretch to it but not nearly as much as some rayon or bamboo blends. You may want to consider sizing up, especially since the pouch on this was just a tad on the snug size.

I was super excited to get my first pair of lace and you should too! In fact, I just ordered another pair. There’s no reason why guys shouldn’t experience the rush of excitement and feel of the fabric all day long. Knowing that I was wearing such a risqué pair made it that much hotter. If you’re on this site, you owe it to yourself to try a pair.

BRAND: Andrew Christian

PAIR: Lace Brief

COLORS: Black lace

FABRIC: 90% polyamide / 10% spandex

SIZES: XS-XL

COST: $18

Discovering Cover Male on a Closeout

October 16, 2017 2 Comments

If you’ve ever been on the fence about trying a new underwear brand, now is definitely the time as many manufacturers are trying to liquidate some of their current and older styles to make room for their fall and winter lines. One in specific that I am pretty excited about is Cover Male. Cover Male makes a wide assortment of styles that is almost sure to appeal to everyone and they are having a MASSIVE blowout on dozens of their styles.

Whether you are a fan of bikinis, briefs, jocks, or thongs you are sure to find a deal on Cover Male’s website. They currently have many styles on sale and up to 60% off. Additionally, there is a closeout section of their website that features styles starting as low as $5.44! If you are a thrifty shopper like me, this is a great opportunity to score some great undies at an unbeatable price. They also offer free shipping if you spend at least $50.

I am a long time fan of the Cover Male brand, and are particularly fond of their cheeky styles, which to me are more like a wide banded thong or boyshort style of brief. I also enjoy the brand because they offer a lot of solid colors, which to me is attractive because I don’t always want brightly colored underwear, particularly if I am going to be visiting the doctor or there is the chance someone else may see them throughout the day.

Cover Male also offers a partial line of athletic apparel to include tank tops and athletic shorts. They offer a full swimwear line including bikinis, briefs, boxer briefs, squarecuts, and trunks. To my dismay, Cover Male does not currently offer any swim thong styles. However many of their underwear styles are made of a spandex blend that should be quick drying and could possibly be worn as swimwear.

Visit Cover Male and Give them a look if you haven’t in the past, or try them again if you’ve visited in the past. Now would be a great time to stock up if you want to grab some great underwear at a great price. Don’t forget to let us know.

In Brief Reviews

Daniel Alexander Brazilian Bikini Review

October 15, 2017 3 Comments

I purchased the Daniel Alexander Brazilian Back String Bikini in purple, blue, and black.

Rating: 5.8/10 (Average of the ratings below)

Daily Fit: 6/10
Sizing: 4/10
Construction: 6/10
Styling: 6/10
Daily Performance: 7/10

Pros:

Polyamide/Spandex blend fabric feels nice
Back style hugs and accentuates butt
Feels good for long term wear

Cons:

Sizing is off-I could probably wear an XS if it were available
No pattern colors available
Waistband does not stretch at all

UNB Ryan’s recommendation: If you like tiny, almost not there bikini underwear, this is the pair for you. The Brazilian Back String Bikini from Daniel Alexander feels great against the skin, doesn’t over-accentuate your package by lifting it out in the front, and feels rather sexy hugging your butt all day. I love the way it features a tiny Brazilian back with tiny ¼” string sides that would almost be more at home on the beach than under a pair of dress slacks!

I haven’t worn Daniel Alexander in the past, so I decided to give them a try with the Brazilian Back String Bikini. I am normally a thong wearer, but allow myself to try other things from time to time, and this skimpy bikini sounded like it would fit the bill. If I’m not going to wear a thong, I typically want to wear the slinkiest pair of underwear that I can find. This style from Daniel Alexander was definitely tiny! I looked forward to wearing this pair after placing my order, and planned to wear them first on a normal workday as I do most of my new styles.

I have worn these underwear numerous times to work, out shopping with the wife, and lounging around the house. For leisurely activities, these work great, but they are pretty tiny and don’t really offer much support, so I don’t think they’d be very well suited for wearing to workout or on a run. These feel great against the skin, and gently hug your package and butt. The only downfall to the style is the material used for the waistband isn’t very stretchy, so they don’t fit as tightly as I like.

These underwear are constructed very well-after numerous outings in them I haven’t noticed any stretching or stitching coming unraveled. The fabric used is a polyamide/spandex blend that feels nice against the skin, and doesn’t require any special care. The pouch on this pair is a flat front design, so you can feel free to wear these under any type of pants without the fear of them showing off too much. The pouch holds your package in a downward position and is not a push out design. The rear of the suit is a Brazilian design and doesn’t cover very much. They feature a flat coverage back and are not gathered or bunched in the rear. I like the fact that they are as skimpy as they are-it’s exactly what I was looking for in a Brazilian cut.

I bought these in a size small, as I do all of my underwear. I normally wear a size 31-32 in dress pants and have found that for most styles a small fits me well. This style is an exception-they fit well everywhere other than the waist. I think it is due to the material used for the waistband not being very stretchy. If I had to make any suggestions to Daniel Alexander concerning this style I would recommend that they replace the waistband with a different style or fabric.

In the past, I wouldn’t of really been too excited about a simple bikini style like this one. However, after reviewing a couple of pairs, I am a Brazilian bikini fan! If you like small bikinis, don’t let this one pass you by. The only downfalls to this pair of underwear are the straps not being very stretchy and the sizing being off. If you wear a larger size, give this pair a try and perhaps size down when ordering. Drop me a line in the comments if you try a pair!

BRAND: Daniel Alexander
PAIR: Brazilian Bikini
COLORS: The pair I reviewed was purple, these are also available in red, blue, black, and a variety of dual color combinations.
FABRIC: 86% Polyamide 14% Spandex
SIZES: S-XL

COST: $17.33 through Daniel Alexander online store or Amazon for $18.20
Where to buy: Daniel Alexander or Amazon

In Man Store

Brand Intro: Manstore from Germany

October 13, 2017 2 Comments

It appears the Manstore brand started back in 1969 by Paco Rabanne and Hans Schöller. Then upon Hans death in 1995, the brand looked like it wouldn’t survive. However in 1996, Olaf Benz’s Alfons Krauzer stepped in and took over the brand. So today it has similarities to the Olaf Benz brand. The Manstore brand is in the premium underwear brand bracket, which makes sense with it being with the same company as Olaf Benz. Both brands have styles that look pretty similar but Manstore is weighted towards or described more as fetishwear.

I wouldn’t personally call them a complete fetish brand, but I can see some items considered fetish wear. The products made out of sheer fabrics, lace, leather-like, shiny rubber looking fabric, and even velvet I can see people considering fetish. Then some have metal rings, snaps, zippers, and even easy release buckles on the sides, which also may be considered fetish like. Then there are a few designs in general that could be placed into fetishwear. I think they have a good mixture of fetish like wear and so called regular underwear. Their styles include bikinis, thongs, briefs, trunks, boxers, leggings, shirts, and bodysuits. They do not offer any swimwear that I have seen. Manstore offers some prints in their lines, but seems to be mostly solid colors.

Manstore does describe themselves as lascivious luxury. Which you could translate into fetishwear, since both are related to arousing sexual desires. Though really so called non fetish wear underwear can bring the same desire. Manstore says their underwear pampers you like a second skin. They have the passion for quality and design like Olaf Benz. They are a brand I would like to try at some point. You can read about the history of the brand here. Have you tried the Manstore brand? What are your thoughts on it? Do you consider it a fetish brand?

Show us your drawers!-UNB Ryan

October 13, 2017 2 Comments

Hey guys, Underweardude here. I hope you enjoyed a look at my underwear drawer last week. This week we are taking a look at the underwear drawer of another guy here at UNB, UNBRyan. Here is what he has to say:

As you can see, my favorite color is pink! I have a mix of thong and tanga styles along with a couple pairs of briefs. I also wear thong swimwear and have many pairs in my underwear drawer.

After I collected about 50 pairs of underwear and swimwear I decided it was time to get organized. I was never able to find the pair I wanted and it was hard to keep them in the drawer. Every time I pulled a pair out I’d get two or three along with. I looked around and found the storage solution in the attached picture. It allows me to separate underwear by style and color, and I can easily see what I have available to wear for the day. I am usually able to stuff a couple of pairs into each compartment and still see what I’ve got for the day.

Thanks, Ryan! Look to see more underwear drawers of other UNB personalities in the coming weeks. Want to join in and show off your collection? Send a photo of your drawer, as well as an optional paragraph about you, your collection, organization, or anything else related to your underwear drawer, to info@underwearnewsbriefs.com, with “Drawer” on the subject. I can’t wait to see everyone’s awesome collection. Big or small, we want to see them all!

UNB Turns 9 Today!

October 5, 2017 No Comments

UNB is 9 Today! It’s been a roller coaster ride over the past nine years. There have been ups and downs, like most things in life. But, I tend to remember the good things that have happened. UNB was formed a little before now, but it wasn’t UNB. I had a personal blog that I posted underwear stuff on. Then on October 5th, 2008 I registered the domain! And the rest is history!

Here are some things that have been the highlights of UNB

Friends – Have made so many friends in the men’s underwear industry. They range from brands, retailers, readers and current/former staff members. I have surrounded myself with good people, and I hope it shows. The men’s underwear industry is an amazing group of people.
Straight guys – When I launched UNB 9 years ago I kept things very middle of the road. I always hoped that straight guys would read the blog and fall in love with undies as I had so many years ago. Well, not only did this happen but it happened way bigger than I thought it would. Our staff has a majority of straight guys. Our past asst. editor and also our current one is straight (the current is ThongedGinger).
Travel/Las Vegas – I love to travel, and since 2010 I have fallen in love and gotten to know Las Vegas. The current situation makes me very sad because I know the area very well. My thoughts go out to the family of those killed an injured. I won’t get political, but if you’re on my personal Facebook you know… I also have traveled to Los Angeles and other places to meet with brands and men’s underwear people.
Steve Grand – Our interview with him has been the biggest post we have ever done. It got picked up by so many media outlets because he addressed the swim briefs directly. We haven’t had much follow up with him since the interview. We intended to show a public figure not afraid to wear them and get other guys to wear them. I don’t think he or we thought it would get so big. We still love Steve and hope he’ll do a follow-up interview with us. Right after the interview, he wanted to be known for talent and not swim briefs. Now he’s embraced it and still looks awesome in a swim brief.
Underwear/Swimwear – being exposed to so many underwear companies I would never have known about if I didn’t run an underwear blog. This includes brands seeking us out and us working with them. There is such innovation in the market, and each year it keeps getting more creative.
UNB Guys – Thanks to all the current and former UNB guys. We have had so many guys over the years. They all made UNB what it is today. Each of them left an impact on the site and me. Many of the former guys I”m still in touch with and still friends with. I hope we grow this family more!
Readers – All this would be nothing if it wasn’t for our steady readers. We have improved over the years and grown. If you look at our archives, you will see. Many of you have been with us since the beginning. The best one was the ThongedGinger read UNB in High School! He still gives me grief about some of the mess ups in the early days! I hope you guys keep reading and supporting us. I have no plans of stopping UNB anytime soon. We have been offered to be bought out, but I have always turned them down due to the love I have for the industry. Sometimes I get burned out, but I come back stronger than ever.

Thanks to everyone who has contributed to UNB. This includes brands, retailers, staff, readers and the loved ones who always humor our underwear love! Here’s to 9 more years.

Show us your drawers!

October 4, 2017 1 Comment

Hi, everyone, and welcome to the first post of a new ongoing series, entitled “Show us your drawers!”(Note: If you can think of a better name, feel free to use that instead.) This series is a place for you the reader to show of your collection and storage method. This will be a blast! We are starting off with a look at all the guys who make up UNBs’ drawers, beginning with..me!

I originally had all my underwear in the same place it had been for years: at the bottom drawer of a dresser, tossed in along with my socks. As my collection grew, I began wanting more space, and eventually became enamored with the idea of under-bed storage. I loved the idea of being able to roll over in bed in the morning, pull open a drawer, and pick out my pair for the day while still in bed. Sadly, while this pair of built in’s doesn’t make that dream a reality, it does hold all my pairs. The drawers don’t pull out all the way either, which means there are a few more pairs not seen in the picture and can make putting pairs in the back annoying. I have so many pairs I don’t just have one underwear drawer, but two!

The first picture is of my daily wear drawer. There you will find briefs, boxers, trunks, and a few semi-skimpy pairs. This si the stuff I wear day to day, the stuff I feel I would be ok to be seen in, etc. The organizer therein is one i’ve had for decades that was originally meant for socks I believe but was repurposed.

The other picture shows my skimpy drawer, with, left to right- jocks, thongs, and bikinis, as well as a small spot in the back left behind the jocks for pairs for special occasions. Also, yes, the bikinis and thongs are separated by those that have a waistband, and those that do not, thanks for noticing! The organizer in here is from Bed Bath and Beyond, but It doesn’t quite fit well enough. I guess that’s the downside about buying under the bed drawers that match your bed from a group that doesn’t offer organization for them. I like how everything looks folded, but I’m not sure if I’m going to keep it up. It’s a lot of work! I own slightly over 100 pairs, which can make laundry day a real pain in the butt.

Want to show us your underwear drawer? Send in your submission to info@underwearnewsbriefs.com with the word “Drawer” in the subject line, along with a photo of your underwear drawer and a short description if you would like. Check in next week for a look at another drawer from a UNB guy!

JOR – Enjoy a Mojito in Havana

October 2, 2017 No Comments

JOR is known for their amazing prints. Two of the newest are the Mojito and Havanna. Both have a latin influence. Mojito is the brighter of the two different prints. But, both are pretty awesome. Each set has tank, trunk, brief, short, mini short and swim brief. The Mojito has a swim trunk and the Havanna has a jock strap and thong.

JOR is known for creating lines that span udnerwear and swimwear. Which to me is pretty damn cool. Sometimes you wish your favorite undies were swim and vice versa. Mix in the tank and it’s a perfect mix of all three!
