The Modus Vivendi Fetish Boxer style is a great pair of boxer briefs in a black fabric that is stretchy and shiny. The boxer has red patent leather look detailing along the front pouch area that is separated and held in place by a black zipper and cord with silver on the end. There is also a small, one inch square in silver with Modus Vivendi in black on the front left hip. This pair of underwear is listed as fetish wear on the Modus Vivendi website and is directed to the leather and leather look fetish group of guys.
The fabric consists of 95% Cotton and 5% Elastan and makes for a soft feel with perfect stretch and conforming nature to provide fantastic support in all areas. The way the pouch area is sewn creates a very nice and full look while wearing these boxer briefs. Size Large was not the best fit based on European to American sizing, but not true to size as I am a true Large in undies (Size up, guys!). The area around the waistband is a standard black elastic, but Modus Vivendi went the extra mile and place the fabric in the body of the brief around the top of the waistband for comfort. This leads to a more comfortable feel against the body. The red leather look material running up and down the front pouch runs under the package and provides a nice full look to enhance the package. The seat is one piece of fabric, but really conforms to the rear in a nice manner.
Upon first inspection, the boxer is more of a squarecut boxer rather than what one thinks of when you use the word boxer. Quality was excellent and the black fabric with the red leather look trim is a excellent combination and makes a nice contrast. While the rear consists of a single panel to provide support and definition of the rear and the pouch size was perfect in sizing and support. After putting this pair on, I found the pouch to create a very full look in the underwear and I loved the way the leather look pieces could be zipped all the way up or left slightly open to reveal your manhood. I like the way the underwear is conforming and how it feels against my body as it moves with my movements and creates a very nice silhouette.
I wore this Modus Vivendi Fetish Boxer for a few hours one evening. I began with working around the house a bit and ended with a nice dinner with my significant other. After the dinner, the fetish side came out and let’s just say that this boxer works for fetish wear. The boxer brief remained fairly comfortable for the evening. I say that because Modus Vivendi lists this as fetish wear and it probably should not be worn for long periods of time and expect it to be comfortable the whole time. I found the waist to be comfortable and conforming. The pouch was comfortable and Modus Vivendi really thought about the zipper as part of the underwear rather than just throwing it on and not worrying about it. This is because when I have had other underwear with a zipper, it is just there and could do some damage if one is not careful. Modus Vivendi has made sure to line have a nice zipper that self-lines itself to cover the metal teeth of the zipper to provide a soft piece of fabric for comfort and no worry about injury.
Overall, this was a nice pair of underwear. I liked the look of the rear, the way the black and red looked together, the leather look enhancements, the feel of the fabric, the overall look of the boxer, and the conforming and enhancing nature of the pouch. The price is a bit high, but fairly reasonable for this type of specialty underwear due to styling. I think I will hand wash these since they have the special detailing and cord on them. In general, I have no major complaints about this boxer and I enjoyed wearing them.
