Marek+Richard Releases “Eat Me Collection”

July 22, 2014 No Comments

Marek+Richard has just released the “Eat Me Collection.” Have you ever wanted underwear that is made in great colors but inspired by candy? Even if you haven’t we think you should check this line out.

Here is what Marek+Richard say about the line: “Satisfy your sweet tooth with Marek+Richard’s EAT ME collection! Get a sugar high when you wear a pair of their pastel undies, or go sour and sport one of their “tasteful” humor tees. Inspired by delicious desserts and candy-coated cravings, EAT ME will take you on a trip to Candy Land: no golden ticket required. So go ahead and indulge, a few cavities never hurt nobody.”

This line is made out of pastel fabrics with a grey accenting waistband. My favorite color is the pink. I don’t know what it is about pink underwear but its one of my favorites! The other colors in the collection are purple, blue and yellow. The trim is in a darker shade of the main color.

Eat Me comes in three styles. The styles are a brief, jock and Trunk ($19.50-29.50). Along with the underwear they have a series of T-shirts ($32.50) with slogans such as “Eat Me”, “Suck on It” and Eye Candy. The t-shirts match the undies perfectly. Marek+Richard is a company that believes that underwear should be fun in and out of bed! Their campaigns are always over the top and super fun.

Be a Supa-Star with Supa-Wear

July 19, 2014 No Comments

Its time to be a STAR! Supa-Wear just released the newest line called Supa-Star. If you have stayed away from Supa-Wear because you wanted a pouch, now is the time to give them a second look. Pouches are the most important thing to me in underwear, so creating a “natural lift” pouch sign me up! I am going to try to get a pair to try.

The new line is in two colors, and as I have said before the names are pretty awesome, Cop and Cowboy. The cop is the blue combination and the Cowboy is the orange/red. I like the color blocking they have done and the piping around the pouch. My personal favorite is the blue, I am not a big fan of orange. However, James on our site will probably love them, he can’t pass up an orange pair!

The new collection is available in a briefs, jock (more like a jock brief) and a long boxer. There is no trunk in this line yet. The trunk has been a staple in the Supa-Wear line but they have opted to go with the long trunk. See the entire line below and go to the Supa-Wear site to purchase!

Style Brief PPU 1412 Sneek Peek Brief

July 1, 2014 No Comments

If you read this blog you know that underwear should be a lot of fun. We all have underwear for every day wear and some of us have underwear to wear to the gym. Those are pairs that are conservative and most guys wouldn’t look twice at in the locker room. But what about those pairs you want to show off and make a statement?

PPU has a pair just for that! The brief, which I call cut out brief, but they call it the Sneak Peek brief. This is a brief cut, where the front is not attached to the elastic but left open. Its a new design is set off by the pink piping around the openings and pouch. So there is no way not to draw attention to yourself when wearing it.

It’s super fun and a really fun design. Where would you wear this? I could see many of our readers wearing it under their suits at work. It amazes me what you guys wear to work! And I say more power too you, wear something that suits your personality. Also this could be great for a night out the pink waistband peeking over jeans will draw attention and maybe some comments. The last part is on a date night. Let’s face it if you wear this pair something tells me you want to show it off.

This pair is also available in Turquoise and Grey. But I think the Pink/Black pair is my favorite. The pink just pops against the black fabric. If you want to show off your undies why not wear a pair that will draw the eye! You should be able to find this at your favorite retailer but if not you can find it on Amazon. A tip, anytime you want a pair of Candyman and can’t find it, Amazon is your friend and you can find all pairs on there!

Style Brief – Pistol Pete Avalon Brief

June 22, 2014 No Comments

Pistol Pete is one of those brands that has their very own style. When you think about it, when you see a pair of Pistol Pete you almost instinctively know that its a pair of PP! This is a good thing in the world of underwear. We always want something that stands out and is different. I think we have very few readers, gay or straight, who don’t want something super fun and something our friends don’t have!

Pistol Pete has released a new line over the last few months and the first pair we are going to profile is the Avalon Brief. I choose this one because of the cut out and the mesh. You guys really love mesh! It amazes me when I find out how much some of you love it. I’m more of a hit or miss with it but this pair I love what Pistol Pete did with the fabric.

The fabric is a mesh with has solid stripes mixed in the pattern. This could have been a fabric they ran as is but they took time to make a chevron with the pouch in front. The stripes will accent your bulge in front and with the trim around the pouch it will def draw attention to the assets. Speaking of assets the back looks great because you can see the stripes in the back! It’s super hot.

This pair is made to be seen. Why would you want to wear a pair like this and not show it off to someone! However, I could picture Wall Street guys wearing this under their suits. I think underwear is a way we can express ourselves in environments where we don’t have much say in what we have to wear to work!

The Waistband is another thing I love. I am a waistband guy and always have been. The Pistol Pete logo on the front and the different squares really is super fun. The blue and black just add something to this pair. You can get this pair in black, blue or white from the Pistol Pete site for $26.50

Style Brief Andrew Christian Coolflex Arrow Jock

June 16, 2014 No Comments

Are you a fan of trunks and jocks? If you are the new Coolflex Arrow Jock is for you! Andrew Christian is always taking underwear we know and turning it into something new and fun. This pair has the cut of a Trunk but with the sides and back cut out (as you can see with the picture).

You maybe asking, the pouch is only attached in one place, what makes it so you won’t fall out? The answer to that question is it features the Show-it Tech. So you will be held in place through out the day. Which is a good thing, because we don’t want underwear that we fall out of it.

Some things you guys should know about this pair are: The pair is a limited edition pair so once its gone its gone and won’t be made again. Next, it’s made out of a modal fabric. Modal is one of my favorite fabrics. It feel so amazing against the skin. Last its just super fun. The hybrid underwear is big right now in the world of men’s underwear. Designers are always taking two styles and meshing them together to see what they can come up with! Its really cool to see the designs.

If you want to get this pair go to the Andrew Christian website, it retails for $24.93. Post contains an affiliate sales link

Style Brief aussieBum Whisky Range

June 5, 2014 No Comments

AussieBum has been on fire releasing ranges after ranges. I don’t see how they are keeping up with the new ranges! The latest range is called Whisky. Why is it called whisky? Because the the super rich and aged hues they use in the underwear. aussiebum always puts it’s creative spin on underwear.

The new Keyhole underwear is one of the latest trends in men’s underwear. If you don’t know what that is its a cut out at the top center of the pouch. aussiebum called it a peep-hole, which is the best name I have heard for such a cut out! This one has a peep-hole in the back as well!

This range is just available in a brief, so if you’re looking for a trunk or jock you are out of lock. The colors are really cool names. The first is Beech with a green pouch and yellow back. Cedar which is grey or tan in the front and red in the back. Oak is tan in the front and navy in the back. Mahogany is light blue pouch with red back. All have a great contrasting piping.

These really do have deep colors. If you’re looking for super bright pairs this won’t be for you. I think these are def a little fashion forward with the colors and piping. The range has the traditional 1 inch aB waistband that is a classic. Its great to see aussieBum to try something new and different.

You can find these at the aussieBum site for $18.50

Style Brief AussieBum Gelato Range

May 28, 2014 No Comments

When I”m in Vegas I always, ALWAYS get Gelato. It prob is one of my favorite things in the world. Here in ATL there are few places to get it, that are really good. So when aussieBum releases a range called Gelato, they have my attention. To mix two favorite things how could it go wrong?

The new range is a cotton range made in really fun colors. The names are inspired by gelato flavors. The colors are: Bubblegum (blue), Berry (purple), Blue Berry (light blue), Melon (pink), Espresso (Black), Cherry (red), Mint (Green), Licorice (Navy). All really fun colors. The styles that are available are a brief and Jock.

One thing I like, besides the main name is the waistband. aB has amazing waistbands. They always create new ones to match the undies they come out with. So this one is super fun and is similar to ones they have had in the bast but really set off the pair. The second thing I love is the contrasting trim on the legs. So often that is either the same color but it adds a little something to the pair.

These are available at the aussieBum site for $15 for the jock and $18.29 for the brief. These are some of the more affordable pairs from them. So def check these out if you’re a fan!

Style Brief Anthony Quintana Underwear

May 17, 2014 No Comments

I LOVE finding new underwear companies for you guys! I know many of you out there want something your friends don’t have, and I’m guilty of wanting new and fun undies. Also, if you’re like me when you see someone in a brand you haven’t seen before and they look great. You have to find out who the brand is and are jealous someone has something different and new.

When in Vegas I got the chance to see Anthony Quintana at magic. He had some amazing new undies in colors and patterns. They are in different styles and it just has an sense of fun in underwear. Granted, classic underwear has it’s time and place, but let’s face it we ala l want undies to make us feel amazing and fun. I think Anthony Quintana is one of those brands. He’s one who designs in bright colors. You will see yellows, oranges, purples and all sorts of really fun bright colors.

The styles also range from bikinis to long boxers. Its great to see a designer cover that range in different styles. Nothing worse than loving underwear just to find out it’s not in your favorite style. I know many out there love a certain style such as trunk/boxer briefs while others love bikinis/briefs. Anthony Quintana has both styles for you!

There are a ton of pics here and if you want to see more check them out at the Anthony Quintana website – http://shop.anthonyquintana.net/. Also check out the pics in the Gallery below!

Style Brief aussieBum Spot

May 14, 2014 1 Comment

aussieBum is on a roll lately! They have been releasing so many awesome pairs of underwear lately! The newest range is the Spot. The Spot is: “This fun, cheeky design from aussieBum is available with bold waistbands and stitching detail in primary colour options of red, blue and yellow. Made from a high quality cotton lycra material for a complimentary fitted look. Spot on for the stylish man!”

I admit I think underwear should be fun or why should we wear it? If you’re reading this blog, you have a similar point of view on underwear. The reason I like this so much is the fun whimsical dot pattern. It’s not exactly a polka dot. The dots are bigger and more spread out. There is just something about this pair that makes me smile.

The styles available are the brief and hipsters. They are available in 3 different colors. But you should note the colors are just the waistband, which are blue, red and yellow. So if you’re looking for some bright colors this pair won’t have them! But, if you’re a fan of waistband, like I am, this could be a great pair.

You can get these pairs from aussieBum for $15.30 for the brief and $16.99 for the trunk. These prices are super reasonable and with the free world wide shipping why not get a pair or two?

Style Brief – aussieBum Read Me

May 11, 2014 No Comments

aussieBum is back at it! This time they are living up to their slogan, “if you doubt yourself…wear something else.” The newest range is the Read between the lines. Which is exactly what you do on the waist band!

They write: aussieBum introduces ‘Read Me’, a fun cheeky product with a conversation starter waistband and first ever side split design. Constructed using soft micro modal fabric for optimum movement and comfort. The soft material and relaxed fit make it the underwear choice for the confident man.

I believe that this pairs waistband is one that must be shown. It would be a big shame to hide it! But, you would want to do it in the right situation. That maybe a night out, on a date or around good friends. I wouldn’t suggest this one to be shown at work.

Next, I’m so happy to see more companies using modal. It has become my favorite fabric for underwear. Not only is it super soft but its great at making you stay cool through out the day.

Lastly, it’s available in a brief and trunk. The colors are red, white and blue with the Read Between the Lines waistband. The brief is around $25 and boxer is about $29. Find these and more at the aussieBum site.

In Chris Salvatore Underwear

Style Brief Chris Salvatore Underwear

April 26, 2014 No Comments

I love bringing you guys new underwear companies. It’s like I find a treasure I have to share it with you guys. Chris Salvatore Underwear was discovered while talking to UNB Kyle. He was coming on the site and told me about the incredible pics. After seeing them I looked up the brand and emailed them. . Admittedly I didn’t know who Chris was before finding his underwear brand, I know I’m prob behind the times.

Chris is an gay actor and singer. He has appeared in the Eating Out series. His best known single is Dirty Love. Many of you out there may know his work already. You maybe asking what made him want to branch out to include underwear designer in his resume? Here is his explanation from his website:

“My career has afforded me the opportunity to wear a lot of great clothes and work with some awesome clothing and costume designers over the years. I began to learn that the clothes don’t make the man, the man makes the clothes. It’s all about what makes you feel sexy and confident in your own skin, and it starts with a great pair of underwear!”

The Chris Salvatore lines has three core concepts. They are to feel comfortable, sexy and confident. I think most of our readers know and believe these concepts. It’s great to see an underwear company expresses the same philosophy. . Underwear should add to your wardrobe and give you something extra through out the day. You should take as much time planning undies as you do the rest of your clothes for the day.

Chris is a relative new brand on the scene. The line launched in February and has a nice core collection of classic styled briefs and boxer briefs. The colors are fun and have names like Bubblegum Pink, Randy Red, Super Hero Blue, Black and Lemon Ice. How could the colors not be fun?

The newest pair released is the Nautical Brief. It has a built in support/enhancer with a fun nautical stripe. When asked why he designed this pair Chris said “I didn’t really like the underwear I saw that tried to incorporate a c0ckr1ng feature. I get that they those are supposed to “enhance” your assets, but they’re just not comfortable! The Nautical Briefs Double Support Pouch does exactly what it says. It gives your Captain and the First Mates a comfy lil pouch to chill in.”

If you’re interested in the brand go check them out at the Chris Salvatore Underwear site – http://www.chrissalvatoreunderwear.com

Style Brief 2EROS Jock Series Long Trunk

April 25, 2014 No Comments

Are you looking for some new undies to wear under your running shorts or to wear to the gym? 2EROS has expanded their jock series with a new Long Trunk. The current Jock line is one of my favorite lines of 2EROS. I love the bright blue and blue/red waistband. The fabric is amazingly soft. But I will tell you more about this in a bit! The Jock Briefs have become one of my favorite pairs of late and I wear them often. I am not a big boxer brief fan, I can hear many of you now saying “you just haven’t tried the right pair.” I have found several brands that I do like their boxer briefs and trunks. Most of those brands I have found has a defined pouch and are super tight. Loose boxer briefs just make me not want to wear undies. These don’t seem to suffer form that and look like a pair I would enjoy wearing. Tight, check, great colors, check and amazing fabric double check! The new Long trunk comes in white or blue and just above the knee. The fabric is a Tactel, type of nylon, that is great at keeping you cool and wicking moisture away from your body. I can speak from experience that the fabric fits great and feels super soft. 2EROS designed for active guys with a pouch that has a single layer of material for a natural hold. That means is shouldn’t bind, bunch or in generally drive you crazy. I really like seeing brands mix up their lines with something new. Jason at 2EROS is always creating fun and interesting undies/swimwear. This style is somewhat of a departure for 2EROS. Lately, there has been a trend for longer boxers and they are not the only brand to release them. The best thing I like is that 2EROS took the longer boxer and made them their own. They did this by incorporating them in the jock series that was inspired by the Union Jack on the Australian flag. If you’re in the market for some new undies to run or work out in I would highly suggest checking these out. They are available at the 2EROS site for $38.95 AUD.

In Bum Chums Underwear

Style Brief Bum Chums Nut Sack

April 24, 2014 No Comments

Bum-Chums has always been a, pardon the pun, cheeky underwear company from Great Briton. They have released a new collection called Nutsack. Note that all the pics the models are wearing modesty panels under the underwear. Meaning that the undies will be totally see through.

Bum-Chums is no stranger to mesh underwear. Their In2cooler line has a rear mesh panel designed to keep you cool! If you wanted to go a step farther the Tool Belt line has a solid mesh back. Let’s say you still want to go father in mesh, the Sneak Peek line is a solid mesh pair. They have taken it to the next level with the Nutsack line.

I would normally tell you in my own words about the underwear but I don’t think I can in any way top what they wrote:

From the book of New Testicles: And it was proclaimed, ‘A saviour shall be sent unto us; holey presents that shall redeem all our souls; a divine host of hipsters and briefs that will lift all men to heavenly comfort. No longer shall man be in bondage (unless he chooses to be), he will be as free as Adam, with not a fig leaf in sight. And this deity shall be called the bum-chums’ Nut Sack and from this day forth, man shall be clothed in many colours, yet be naked and revealed in all his glory….oh, rapture.’

Like I said, no way I could out do that write up that clever. Bum-Chums is all about taking your underwear and making it over the top fun. The underwear is also functional, nothing worse than a fun pair of undies that’s a pain to wear. The Nutsack is a mesh pair that is available in only black and red. The styles they have released are a hip brief and hipster (a trunk for us US folks). We have all the pictures of each pair below, so you can see the front and back of each pair.

Where can you buy Bum-Chums? I haven’t seen them offered on any site or store in the US. If you have let us know, but the only place to order them is their website (http://www.bum-chums.com). The cost of both the styles are £19.99.

In Croota Underwear

Style Brief Croota Sprinkles Range

April 23, 2014 No Comments

Croota has always been a favorite of the guys here at UNB. Since we first started covering them they have always ranked high in our reviews. So when they release something new we want to bring it to you guys. The latest release is the Sprinkles line. I can hear a few of you going, “Sprinkles?” The name speaks to the the pattern they have created.

The first thing you will notice in the pictures is the color is monochromatic. We have guys who read the blog who love more “classic” colors and don’t like really bright undies. They want something that wont’ bring strange stares from people at the gym. You could take your pants off at the gym and many may not notice you have on a brand that isn’t a US staple.

You maybe asking where do the sprinkles come in? They are small dots of color mixed in the fabric. You can’t see them in the main pic but they are in all different bright colors. So when the light hits them it will sparkle! So, in second thought you may not want to wear them to the gym!

The style for this range is a low rise trunk. The waistband is a Croota branded waistband and is available in the grey and black. Both darker colors so the Sprinkles will pop!

Here is some info Croota sent us:

Croota underwear (www.croota.com) has just released its ‘Sprinkles’ range of men’s trunks, adding to a 2014 collection of underwear filled with unique styles, designs and fits.

Croota’s ‘Sprinkles’ trunks offer a subtle splattering of colors against one of two monochromatic color options. The range is offered in grey or black, and features a waistband that is a mixture of two distinctive materials (cotton and elastane), which give the Croota logo a reflective surface.

Like its other ranges, Croota’s ‘Sprinkles’ range is a lo-rise glove-fit pair of men’s trunks. It was designed for a guy who likes simple designs and subtle flair. It is made with 95% breathable cotton and 5% elastane, and retails for $22.90 (www.croota.com

).

Style Brief 2(X)ist Volume Line

April 21, 2014 No Comments

If you’re a fan of 2(X)ist? If you are you should check out the new Volume line was just released! You maybe asking what is new about the Volume line? Before I get into that, the last few years 2(X)ist has really found a way to keep their lines fresh and new. They are having fun playing with materials (like the Sliq Mesh), Colors (in their prints) and waistbands (they change them up often).

Back in August when I met with 2(X)ist they showed me this line. They are one of the few that shows six months out. So, by the time they come out I have to refer to my notes and remember what we talked about.

The first thing that pointed out to me was the waistband. If you look at the picture above you will see the pattern in the background. The pattern is an equalizer, similar to ones you see with DJ’s. This is a subtle print with metallic 2(X)ist written across the front. This is where the name of the line comes from!

Next, is the pouch which is original Contour Pouch. This pouch made to support and boost. There is a trim that runs along the pouch and around the back that accents the pouch.

Lastly, the Volume line comes in a N0-Show Brief, No-Show Trunk and a Jockstrap. The six colors are Black, White, Parakeet (Green), Directore Blue, Poppy Red and Lemon Chrome. Prices range from $24-28.

Find this and more pairs at the 2(X)ist Site

Style Brief Sukrew Union Jack Brief

April 14, 2014 No Comments

Last April a new brand came on the scene called SUKREW. It’s a funny name for a really interesting underwear brand. The owner took his 20 years of design experience and turned it to the world of underwear. Their philosophy is “Our goal is to help you to look and feel sexual, sensual and confident, through creative designs, expert workmanship and quality materials”

The first pair they created was the y U Trunk. The U Trunk is made with U panel that makes you hang free. So you get the feel of underwear but also the feel of going commando. I have seen the pics and they look interesting. While it may not be for everyone its def something new in the world of men’s underwear.

Granted, some of you out there are going, but I like the mystery of underwear and not showing off what I have when out on a date or in general. Well, they have released a full brief that has an enclosed pouch! So you won’t have to worry about lack of support or modesty.

The pair we are profiling is the Union Jack Full Brief. The first reason we choose it is they are based out of the UK. Its only fitting to have the Union Jack on a pair of underwear. We always see the American flag on undies. It’s about time to see more countries on them. Next, the pouch looks really cool. They say the pouch will enhance your package. So it won’t have any straps or instructions how to put on. Lastly, they are a relatively new company and not in the US. We are definitely trying to bring you brands you may not know about!

If this pair is a little too wild for you they do have the same brief in solid colors. We will be interviewing them soon to bring you more info about the brand and how they got started!

The last time I saw SUKREW was at the end of last year before they added to their collections with the full briefs. Now they have 5 different collections and the original fit turnk and briefs, along with the full cut trunk and briefs. The Union Jack Full brief retails for £24.99 at their site. You can find them at http://www.sukrew.com/

In Male Power

Style Brief – MalePower Heather Rib

April 10, 2014 No Comments

MalePower has a pretty loyal following amongst underwear lovers. They are known for their fetish wear, mesh materials and revealing cuts! The perfect example of this is the Fetish line that has a leather like material with barely there pouches and sometimes no pouch at all! They are all about having a guy feel and look sexy! I have tried a few pairs and the zipper trunk I reviewed a few years ago was well made and felt great!

I hear some of you saying that you don’t want to wear mesh or fetish wear. MalePower is not all about barely there underwear. About two years ago they released the Bamboo collection. The Bamboo is a more conservative line with traditional cuts (briefs, trunks and t shirts). It has been a best seller for them.

MalePower is making another collection that goes with the Bamboo styling. That collection is the Heather Rib Collection. Here is what they say about the collection: “Heather Rib is the perfect style for men who prefer to keep things simple and sexy. These shorts, jocks, thongs and bikinis come in basic grey, accented by a black, elastic logo waistband. Made with a polyester rayon fabric, they are smooth, soft and incredibly comfortable. Look sharp and feel great in Male Power’s most basically beautiful underwear”

It could be considered a basic collection from MalePower. It is their most conservative collection to date I think. One reason I say this is because the grey fabric is not something they are known for at all. They are better known for purples, greens and reds. So it’s refreshing to see something like this from them, knowing they can make a classic pair. Not everyone wants to wear a leather like pair to work!

This was just released and should be at retailers soon! We will bring you more about MalePower over the next week!

Style Brief aussieBum AusBoy

April 9, 2014 No Comments

aussieBum has just released the new range AusBoy. The AusBoy range is the newest ergonomically designed underwear. First, let me say that usually aB makes really good undies and I have never had an issue with any fit. But, if they are entering this market I welcome it and feel they will hit a home run. Taking the great construction and mixing in the erognomic design how could they not win!

The first thing that catches your eye is the unique panel design. This design is made to fit a guy and how he moves in sports and in every day life. It creates a pouch to give you support without binding or restricting motion. The pictures feature the model playing cricket, but I have found underwear made for sports is great for every day wear.

The next thing that made me take notice is the material. The AusBoy line is made out of modal. Which has become my favorite fabric in underwear. This is for two reasons. Modal is super soft and feels amazing against the skin. Second, modal is very breathable and keeps you cool. Modal has become the material companies are starting to use in underwear on a bigger scale. I hope we will see it become the dominant fabric.

Those of you who have been long time readers know I love a waistband. It’s one of the reasons I buy a pair. The AusBoy has a new aB Waistband. I like it it’s a bold design and available in black/red (Omega) or blue and red (Alpha). This is the only color in the pair. The body of the pairs are white.

AusBoy is available in a brief, hipster (trunk) and L-leg (boxer brief). This is one of the few times I remember aB making a longer legged boxer brief. I vaguely remember one a while back but it’s not a standard style for them. That being said with a pair designed for sports it’s a smart decision to have it in the collection. Many guys prefer this length when wearing underwear for cricket, baseball and such.

It’s always great to see aussiBum’s new pairs. They are not a company that stays in one box and does the same underwear over and over. They are a company that will take risks. The pairs are available now and the pairs cost, Brief $28, Hipster $30 and L-leg $34. All available on the aussieBum site now

Style Brief Papi’s New Wild Thing Jocks

April 8, 2014 No Comments

You either love or hate animal prints. I have sort of a love hate relationship myself. Some of the prints are amazing while others are a miss. If you fall into the second part of that we may have an animal print you may love. Papi just released the new Wild Thing collection. It’s available in a jock and trunk. The jock is what we are going to be covering.

The Wild Thing collection is a solid fabric with a cheetah print in the same color. So the print is very slight and not over the top. It adds a bit of style to what would be a solid color. I think they did a great job coming up with this collection. This is because it will allow more guys to step outside their solid underwear box and try something a little more wild!

The jock is a traditional jock. The waistband is a grey 1 1/4 inch branded with the Papi logo in the center. Legs straps really can make or break a jock, this pair has a 3/4 inch leg straps that match their other jocks in their line up. Lastly is the material, it is made out of a 63% Nylon / 32% Polyester / 5% Spandex fabric.

Colors are key to this pair and they have just released four bright fun colors. Those colors are Black, Intensity (Red), Purple and Storm Blue. My favorite is the Black. When you think of a black pair you’re expecting solid dark black. This is more of a grey with the cheetah print.

Papi really created something out of the ordinary with this pair. Hats off to the creativity for this one. It goes along with our philosophic that underwear should be fun and add to your wardrobe. This one would do that and would be great under jeans or even under a suit.

As we stated it’s available in a Brazilian Trunk as well. The jock retails for $28.00 on the Papi site.

Vizeau is bring you Days of the Week

April 7, 2014 No Comments

Days of the week underwear is something you think of when you’re younger. It’s a cute way to get When you get older you don’t need a reason to change underwear. We have readers who change their underwear 2-3 times a year. I remember one reader who wore a pair in the morning, then changed at the gym, and then changed after the gym into another pair.

Vizeau has released a new collection called “Days of the Week.” Which is the most conservative style I have seen from the brand! Usually their pairs super skimpy and those who dare to bare and almost show off everything. The new collection is a series of boxer briefs with the days of the week on the waistband. Each one is sold separately, so you can buy your favorite day or get a few!

I Love that that each day has a different color and waistband. It’s not so cookie cutter. Most of our readers want unique and fun underwear, so a brand that makes it all the same is not one you guys would be interested in. Its just enough difference to make the pairs stand out. Each boxer brief/trunk is the same cut but a different main color. On top of that is a tailor made waistband with the name embroidered in to the fabric.

Just by the picture it looks as if each pair does have a defined pouch. So, they took some time to include their style into the pair and not make them so plain. The accent around the pouch also will set off and accent your pouch.

If you have wanted to try Vizeau and didn’t want to go for something wild now is the time to check them out! Also, if you’re a fan of the brand and want to have something you can wear to the gym, they just may have something for you now! Find this and more at the Vizeau site.

Style Brief Clever 5190 Calipso Mesh Latin Brief

April 6, 2014 No Comments

What is sexier than mesh undies? Not a whole lot in my opinion. You can get the pairs that leave little to the imagination or those who give a hint of whats underneath. The Clever 5190 Calipso Mesh Latin Brief is the later! It will show enough of whats underneath but not give everything away!

The first thing you notice about the pair is it comes in a light green. Which in itself is not a color you see typically in mesh undies. However if you want a more traditional color it is available in black. But, if your’e like me you prefer something different and fun in your undies and would definitely go with the green.

As you notice on the pictures the green pair has a grey waistband with Clever written in the same green. While the black is solid black, including waistband with Clever written in blue. The black does appear to be a bit more see through. So keep that in mind when making a selection.

The two pairs are made out of a nylon/spandex stretch mesh. So it will conform to your body and keep things well in place. This also means it will feel great against your skin. I prefer a fabric with a higher spandex percentage. This pair has 25% spandex in the fabric composition.

Other factors that make this a good pair are the low rise style and pouch. The pair has low rise design that is great wearing under jeans. Meaning the waistband won’t show over the top. There are some readers who will not like this and love to show off their undies. The second is the way the fabric is cut it creates a contour pouch. So it will give you great support through out the day.

If you’re up for some really fun mesh underwear we suggest you give the Clever 5190 Calipso Mesh Latin Brief. It is part of the Spring 2014 Collection from Clever and should be at stores now!

Style Brief aussieBum Wonder Jock Raw

April 2, 2014 No Comments

Are you a fan of the aussieBum Wonder Jock line? If you’re not familar the Wonder Jock (WJ) line, it did to men’s underwear what the Wonder Bra did for women’s undies. The WJ takes what you have and enhances it. To do this the it has a pouch to put your goods in and the WJ does the rest! See the pictures below to see how this is made into the brief and hipster.

aussieBum has now created a jock brief and jock boxer brief. Each style has the traditional cuts of the brief and trunk, but the back is cut out. I believe this if one of the first jock briefs they have done. One thing I really love about this collection is the green color. It’s by an far my favorite color and very few undies companies make green underwear. The official names of colors offered are: lagoon Forest, Chocolate, Burgundy and deep purple. Also made with the signature aB logo wasitband.

If you’re interested in these pairs the brief retails for $21 and the trunk/hipster is $24. You can find these and more at the aussieBum website.

Style Brief Vuthy Sim Jellyfish Swim Thong

April 1, 2014 No Comments

This year we have challenged you guys to break out the swim briefs and wear them proud. We have gotten some great feed back on the campaign, you guys are actually going to wear them! Now, the next big challenge for you guys who have worn a swim brief, would you wear a swim thong?

More brands are making swim thongs than ever before. I can’t remember when we had this many on the market. Vuthy has definitely expanded their line. Last year they had a few but this year I think the swim thong collection has doubled. I will admit I have worn a thong to lay out in once. I went to a park that was known to have guys lay out in swim briefs. I would go lay out and would wear my swim briefs as underwear. However, on this day I forgot I had on a thong and when I dropped my shorts I felt the breeze on my back side. I said “What the hell” and laid out. I got a few looks but had fun.

This pair from Vuthy is a lot of fun to me. The color and pattern really bring attention to the wearer. And lets face it if your’e going to wear a swim thong you want the attention! The color is a bright orange with a jellyfish design. Super fun for the beach. It is also available in a swim brief and trunk if you want a pair with a bit more coverage!

This thong is made for swimming. The fabric is a 80% Nylon and 20% spandex. Which means it will be quick drying when out of the water!

The Vuthy line was just released so it may take it a few weeks to get to stores. Just do a search on their site for Vuthy 410 Jellyfish at your favorite store!

Are you bold enough to wear a thong? Have you ever worn a thong?

Style Brief 2EROS Honolulu Swim Brief

March 31, 2014 1 Comment

2EROS is on fire this year and i LOVE it. Their previous swimwear was pretty much solids. No longer, they are now doing patters and prints! The previous Geometric is an amazing pair you have to see. Like I said it may not stand out in pictures but see it in person if you can!

The newest swimwear they have is the Honolulu. Which is a yellow or blue body with a flower print. It’s a pair that will get you noticed on the beach. It’s bright and fun the way swimwear should be!

I think too many times we loose sight that our underwear and swimwear should be fun. We get stuck in a certain color or style and never venture out of that box. I think its time we all do. If you want to try something new and not go crazy, I would say go with the blue. It’s a little more subtle but still has the great tropical flower print on the front and back.

If you want to go wild and fun go with the yellow. This is a bright yellow that will get you noticed on the beach. The contrast in the yellow and pink makes this pair pop. Its making me want to get back in swim brief shape!

These two pairs are made out of 100% polyester. Don’t let that scare you off this isn’t your old school polyester! It also has a roomier pouch than previous swimwear from 2EROS, so if you had a problem you may wan to check this pair out.

I am really loving these. I saw them at their booth in Vegas and they were the first thing that caught my eye. They were amazing and fun. I think Jason outdid himself this time! Find this and more at the 2EROS site. If you get a pair let us know and send us pics in them!

Do you have y our swimwear? Especially for our “Swim Brief” challenge! If not check out the new Andrew Christian Splash Bikini. This is a bikini for those who really want it to be known they are wearing a swim brief for two reasons! First, we say this because it’s available in Neon Yellow. Meaning you won’t be missed in this pair at the beach or pool!

The bikini has a draw string and features the Show-It Technology. If not familiar it’s an enhancing technology Andrew Christian has used for years. This is the second reason you will get noticed. The Show-It takes what you have and shows it off! Some this will be a big bonus and be a big selling point!

Andrew Christian was voted our favorite swimwear brand in our 2014 Reader Awards. If you want to try a great pair of swim we think you should check out the Splash Bikini. If you don’t want to wear neon yellow it is also available in black. Find it at the Andrew Christian website for $37.93!
