img_0378This post is a little late, but with the new site and a few other things I’ve been working on I haven’t had time to write it up. Last month I got to attend an apparel show here in our home base of Atlanta. Which was a first and a lot of fun.

Our contact at Underwear Station got us in to the show. I didn’t know what to expect a img_0381first. I registered and made my way up to the booths. I found them pretty easy. And when  saw the booth, I was in underwear heaven. They had all the lines from Steven, Elite and Joe Snyder. As you can see by the pic, it was pretty much everything.

They showed us a lot of stuff from each line. It was just great being able to see a lot of the undies you normally wouldn’t see. Since most retailers that I have been to carried certain items, but this whole collection at one place!

img_0379The booth was decked out in posters of all the undies they were carrying, and really caught the eye of some of the attendees. As I sat there talking, a few folks waked by and looked. I spend a good portion of the day talking to them and I found out a lot about the lines and they are great guys at Underwear Station.

As more items come out we will report on them from each of the three lines. The big show in Vegas was this past week, Magic. I hopefully will attend it and meet more people in undies and bring you a lot more fun and and interesting brands!

Titan Men star Dillon Buck was recently invited by SALeathermen to South Africa to join them as their special guest at the Hellfire Club Party held at Station Bar on 30 January 2009. The Hellfire Club Party was a charity event held to raise funds for the Cape Town based Dibani Aids Project.

Dillon stopped by Bone Wear a few days after the Hellfire Party event to choose some complimentary underwear from Bone Wear owner and designer, Wilco Stemmett.

jm_men_ecoskinz_lrIn what appears to be an on going trend in the world of Men’s Underwear, more and more companies are going green. JM is one that has joined in to save the environment and also give you great underwear.

JM has come out with the Ecoskinz line. They are created from recycled polyester and just a bit of spandex.  The spandex gives you just the right fit to keep you comfortable through out the day. One of the best things about polyester, including recycled is the ecoskinz_92147_c03_lrability for it to breath and wicks perspiration away from the body keeping it dry and comfortable through out the day.

The manufacturing of the recycled material has less of an impact on the environment. Which lessens the impact on natural resources and total energy consumption.

The line includes a pouch brief, jock strap and tank top. They are available in two colors slate and blue.  If you want a trunk or boxer brief, I would say give them time, as the green movement grows more and more styles and colors will come out, not just from JM but other companies.

We’ll keep you posted on more from JM especially in the spring when swim suits are out!

Over the coming months, Daniel Miljkovic, designer for the men’s underwear brand Obviously will be presenting a short 10 part series on the 10 things that make men’s underwear more comfortable.

Part One: Room to Move, Room to Grow

I’m not sure where it started, but at some point someone decided that it was OK to have men jamming themselves down the front of the pants  with no room to move. Every man knows the feeling of being squashed down the front of his underwear, there’s nothing worse. That sick feeling that you get when you know your most important bits are suffering. And every woman knows the feeling they get when the guy in front goes for the quick crotch adjustment that turns into the 5 min scratch.

Top of the comfort list is underwear that provides men with the freedom to move, not swinging in the breeze freedom, but the not‐squashed comfortable kind of freedom: the sort of freedom where everything is right where it should be.

When designing the Obviously for Men underwear range, one main design element focused on ensuring that there enough room for men of all shapes and sizes to be comfortably support without the need for constant crotch readjustments. Through the use of clever design an fabric selection Obviously ensures that you have room to move and room to grow.
