Tuesday means it’s $12 Tuesday! This week’s pair is the Luxe Boxer Brief. The pair is made from  95% Modal Cotton and 5% spandex. Meaning it is super comfy and fits well. As you can see it’s more of a traditional boxer brief. To get the deal make sure you go under the Specials at the Baskit Website. While there check out a few more pairs on the specials page!

PPU is a brand that has always had some classic to wild underwear. Meaning they have done solids in bigger cuts to thongs and jocks that are just barely there. This year is no different. They are making the collection a little more classic. Don’t worry if you are a fan of some of the wilder cuts, there are some new ones you would like.

Here is an overview of what you are seeing in the collection that is out now

  • They are introducing some basis back into the collection Basic Microfiber and mesh. It feels super SOFT
  • Those include styles: Boxer 1022, 1024, 1023, 1014, 1010
  • Peekaboo cut outs are part of the collection. These are cut outs on the side of the Boxer Brief. Style 1005
  • The jeweled, well you know (see pic below) on the pouch (Boxer 1070)
  • 1008 very cool cut. It’s almost a cross between a trunk and a brief. The curved tailoring makes it one of the more interesting in the collection.
  • Sheer is not gone from the collection. The front in 1006 is sheer and comes in black and white
  • 1020 circle marks the spot highlights the package in either grey, red or black
  • There are new jock briefs, jocks and thongs and Slingshot. My favorite is Style 1015. However 0962 is still an interesting take on a jock
  • Butt enhancer brief from PPU 0988. No one will be able to tell the padding is removable pads in front and back and one of the best from last season
  • 1016 is unofficially called squid. It is just a pouch for well, you have to see the picture below.
  • 0958 and 0987 are both c-ring enhancing pairs without a pouch.
  • You can see pictures of all these styles below. Let us know what you think of the PPU line!

    Bum-Chums is quite adorable in their approach to underwear shopping (even their little tushy logo is cute). I was sent a pair of Bum-chums to review, and low and behold, this hilarious pair of undies came into my life.

    At first glance, it looks like a space suit turned into a trunk. After reading that the pair was Bum-chums’  “Moon Pants” hipster, I realized they lived up to the name perfectly. Without further ado, I slipped the hipster on.

    I was surprised at how soft the inside felt compared to the shiny metallic layer on the outside of the nylon/lycra fabric.  The hipster (aka trunk) fit very nicely in my allocated size, and hugged my butt firmly (the Brand knows what it’s doing), and had a nice amount of room in the front, I might even say verging on a little baggy.

    As I said for a metallic underwear, they are very comfy to wear, but the Bum-chums site states that the Celestial (metallic) collection should be considered “Occasional” wear, because with too much heavy wear, the metallic finish might “tarnish” (read: rub off), and they won’t look as Moon-y.

    The waistband was very nicely sewn onto the metallic fabric, leaving no uncomfortable metallic edged seam to rub against your hips. The cut on the undies has a seam up the back for more contouring on the “bum”, while the front has an inset two-panel pouch.  The waistband also has a branding label sewn to the outside of the Left front hip. It’s a nice idea putting the uncomfortable tag on the outside, but it’s visually a little uncalled for.

    Price-wise, for roughly 20$ USD, it’s not a bad price for such a cute pair.

    PROS:

    • Super fun metallic look.
    • Really comfortable.
    • Well cut in the bum area.

    CONS:

    • Not as great fit in the front pouch area.
    • Not great for daily use (mind you, wearing silver undies daily might be a bit much anyway).

    Petit Q‘s jockstrap is a very sexy showpiece that is for a confident guy that wants to feel sexy.  They have a French appeal to them, with a quality sheer material in the front and contrasting black criss cross straps around the back.  The layout of the straps on the hips and back feels very sexy, and a little naughty.  The front pouch is a sheer fabric cut and sewn to wrap around every detail of your package.

    These are definitely best saved for a special night or occasion.  I did need to adjust the straps for a bit in the mirror to make sure everything was in the correct spot and laying flat, but once I was in, I felt great.  Again, these are for a confident guy, there’s not much to these except a sexy web of straps.  I saved them for a special night with the boyfriend and he was more than happy to get caught in that web!  They really turned both of us on, so if you feel comfortable in a hot design and are in the mood for a sexy pair of underwear, I’d recommend these.

    I was excited to receive Cover male’s bikini brief in royal blue as I had the chance to try their running short a few weeks back and was a fan.  All the things I loved about the running short were here in the bikini brief in a more wearable and supportive style.  The poly/spandex blend feels great on and these fit great.

    I wore these to work and to then to the gym.  They functioned great for both situations.  The pair offered comfort during the workday and felt great, and enough support while I worked out.  I really enjoyed wearing to the gym because they didn’t feel bulky under my gym shorts.  I’m looking forward to wearing these around the pool in the summer; they flatter the body with the right cut like a sexy speedo.  I think they’ll function well in the water, I mean a semi-private pool anyway.  The royal blue color is fun and summery and will definitely draw some attention.

    I was excited to try this new line from Cover Male. I had been hearing great things about the fabric and design. If you are like me you can never have too many comfortable pairs of fun underwear. Sometimes a sexy pair of underwear and a comfortable pair of underwear can be a tricky combination.

    There is that moment when you first touch the fabric and you know right away if you are gonna love the underwear. I got this design in vibrant neon orange. It’s definitely a pop of color. The microfiber fabric is very stretchy. The 4-way stretch of the fabric is definitely ideal for a thong. It has thin waistband and strap were very comfortable and never needed to be adjusted. The fit was perfect. The pouch design features a contoured pocket that lifts and supports, however, is a very low-rise fit. I personally could have used at least another inch of fabric. There were a couple of moments where I felt like I was falling out of the top of the pouch.  The base of the pouch was a little too small causing more pressure than I normally desire. I just think this design needs a few tweaks to really bring it into a real contender as an everyday thong.

    I also thought the placement if their tag was strange. If I had left this big white tag in the back you would have been able to see it every time I wore the thong. I removed it but then realized that there are no other brand markings on the underwear. I would also suggest they rethink how they put their company’s name on their product.

    I will wear this pair again but I probably won’t be wearing it as an all day item. I might wear it to lounge around my house in. I also thought about wearing it to the pool. The fabric would make a great bathing suit. I hope they keep expanding their lines and come up with more creative products using the great fabrics. They have a great start already and I am sure I will be wearing more and more if their thongs over the next few years.

    Poor Joey Giorgianni never gets the love he deserves, but he sure knows how to sauté the perfect romance for our Andrew Christian models and real-life couple, Nicco Sky and Kyle Clark. The video begins with the boys looking sexy in their Andrew Christian V-necks as Chef Joey teaches them how to roll the meatballs just right. However, as the seasonings are added, the clothes are subtracted and shirts and pants magically disappear. As distracted as we are watching them, so are they in each other’s company; they can’t seem to keep their hands—and lips!–off each other. Against all odds, the food comes out perfectly, but we aren’t quite sure if the boys ever got a chance to finish their noodles and meatballs. Oh, we are so bad!

    If you want to jump to the good stuff, start at the 9 minute mark on the Uncensored Version where Kyle throws Nicco on the counter.

    If you are a Dancing with the Stars Fan you will recognize the guy above. He is William Levy a current contestant on the reality show. I bet you never thought you’d hear about DWTS on this blog. He is one of the most popular contestants and regularly gets much applause going well into the judges comments. However, there is a “scandal” with him, that he modeled X-rated pictures for N2N Bodywear. Please note the word scandal is in quotation marks. The pictures in question are not “x-rated” rather him modeling in mesh underwear. Yes there isn’t much to the imagination in the pics but they are not sexually explicit.

    We have talked about the double standard in men’s underwear this year on the blog. I feel this is another example of how if this was a female contestant it would not be a big deal. I haven’t seen this on TV yet, but it has set the blogosphere on fire! Specifically entertainment and reality show blogs. I think this is pretty much a non issue. With that said it’s really amazing press for N2N, who couldn’t have timed it better since their new line is about to be released.

    I would like to know if you feel this is a double standard? Please leave a comment, post on facebook, email us and/or answer the poll below. Show your support and on Monday vote for William!

    One of the hottest new crazes in mens underwear is the Jock Brief.  Full brief in front, jockstrap in the back.  It’s the best of both world’s!

    I recently received this CandyMan Jock Brief.  Well known for creating “novelty”, costume underwear, CandyMan offers a wide selection of fun underwear and not your everyday briefs…

    It’s my first black pinstriped pair of underwear, so I was eager to try it out.  As soon as I put it on I knew I would like it.  The stretchy fabric (93% Polyester 7% Spandex/Elastane/Lycra) feels great on the skin.  The elasticity creates a pouch that is loose enough not to feel flattening yet still provides a moderate amount of support.  The rear leg openings fit perfectly and didn’t bind like some jocks do.  The pinstripes are eye catching, and the logo on the waistband is perfectly proportioned on the center.   With this pair, they’ve given me something that I can add to my daily rotation of underwear to choose from.

    Available in black pinstripes and in red plaid, this brief is great for every day wear or a night on the town.
