I have never had a pair of Joe Snyder underwear. I know that is very hard to believe considering I run an underwear blog. There have been many things I have heard over the years about Joe Snyder.  There are some who swear that Joe Snyder is the best underwear company around. While others have said that the pouch is small, it’s tight and etc.

With all these opinions going through my head, I was a little worried how I would like them. Would the pouch be big enough? Would it fit? More on that in a minute. The newest line from Joe Snyder, it has made a big splash in the world of underwear. Joe Snyder is one to use vibrant colors and classic designs.  The line has a black accent stripe that literally frames your pride. It will draw attention to the pouch.

I wore this pair to work and knew the minute I put it on that it would be an amazing pair. The complaints about the pouch being small are not true with this pair. When I first put them on it was like the pair was made for me. It fit so well that I didn’t’ want to take them off.  It was like I wasn’t wearing any underwear through out the day. It is a line that I will get more of and put them in my drawer. These came at a good time because after loosing weight I’m in the market for new undies to fill my drawer.

If you have been a long time reader of the blog you know that a pouch is the most important thing to me in underwear. I don’t care what else the underwear has going for it, with out a pouch I won’t like it as much. The pouch on the Pride Frame has to be one of my favorites I’ve ever reviewed. Why did I like it so much, it was the combination of the fabric and design that has won me over. I want to get them in all colors now!

The Pride Frame is made out of 90% Polyamide, 20% Spandex mix, which is super stretchy and conforms to your body.  The pair I wore was an XL, in typical American sizing it would be a Large.  Meaning it would easily fit a 36 waist. The important thing on Joe Snyder is read the sizing chart at their site or the retailer to pick the right size.  There is nothing worse then getting the wrong size of underwear!

Pros:

  • Great pouch
  • Classic Bikini style
  • Incredible fabric,

Con’s

  • I want the entire line

Joe Snyder furnished these for review.  Available in 7 colors from $23.50.

I know with the holidays around the corner you guys are already putting together a wish list you want to receive this season. If you are like me you may buy some for yourself as a present. One pair you should check out is the Andrew Christian Almost Naked Brief with Show-it Technology. This is a combination of two of the most popular lines in the Andrew Christian range. So you get the great pouch from the Almost Naked and the enhancement of the Show-it line

  • Feels Like you’re not wearing any underwear at all
  • Almost Naked pouch is combined with Show-It Technology combined into one style.
  • The biggest and best “package” enhancer of any of our underwear
  • Contrasting pouch and a limited edition silver and light blue waistband
  • 7% Spandex for a great stretch & recovery to prevent sagging

Find this pair on the Andrew Christian website for $22

Today’s Brief Distraction is from our Annual Holiday Guide. We teased you with a picture this past week and now you get to see a preview of the pairs we shot for Clever. We are working on the behind the scenes video but iMovie is not cooperating and we will have it later this week. The guide will be released on Friday

We round out our review of Kiniki with the Savile Hipster. The pair has a really great print, so I was really excited to try them. I am not one too much for super wild patterns, but the paisley print was so very cool to me.  A silver waistband sets off the pattern of the hipster and looks very cool.

With that said I would say that this pair was my least favorite of the three I reviewed. And I really wanted it to be the most favorite. It just looks so cool! The main reason is because of the fabric. The Poly Elastane didn’t have enough give as I’m used too. My favorite brand has either lycra or spandex. Underwear made from material that forms to your body and gives great support through out the day.

I wore this pair to work and through out the day at work and for the first half of the day it did great. However for the second half of the day it kinda rode up and didn’t lost its support. This is what I like least about trunks/boxer briefs. I want to try them after the second wash to see how they hold up.

This review isn’t all bad because the material did feel good against my skin. I think if some spandex or other stretchy material were added in it would be one of my favorites.  The waistband is a classic design. The solid silver really sets of the pair.

The construction if the pair is very good. I think all the underwear I have gotten from Kiniki has been very well constructed. This pair is just a matter of personal preference. I know we will have other guys out there who love it and it will be their favorites.

Pros:

  • Great pattern
  • Accenting waistband
  • Soft Material

Cons:

  • Rode up during the day
  • Material didn’t give support through out the day

Ratings:

  • Fit – 3.5
  • Materials – 4.5
  • Construction – 4.5
  • Look – 4.5
  • Daily Wear – 3.5
  • Overall -4.1

This pair was furnished by Kiniki for review
