The Scrimmage line from C-IN2 has been re-envisioned with NEON colors. The. Scrimmage collection has always been one that I thought has been one of the most creative of C-IN2. It is inspired by American football practice jersey. Therefore, it’s made for activities and working out!

The new Neon colors are a great evolution of the design. Made in 5 different styles and two of them are shirts. The brief is my favorite cut because of the cutouts and the construction of the design. It’s pretty darn sexy to me as well. If you are a fan of sports gear fabric, definitely check it out.

It’s cold and a chance of snow this time of year. So, what makes us want to post about swimwear? It’s because Aronik has released their new Ensign collection! I have seen it on Tumblr and a few other social media outlets but It wasn’t listed on their site. Then this past week I saw it had been released! Well, it’s more of an unveiling than a release. The new collection is available or Pre-order!

The new collection continues on in the tradition that Aronik has set. There are some great solids and stripes (The ones pictured above I call stripes as well even though they are color blocked.) The Aronik guys have an eye or design that makes their suits just pop. When on Instagram or Facebook, I can always tell when it’s theirs, even before seeing any branding.

There is something I like about this collection that I couldn’t put my finger on at first. After thinking about it, I realized it’s they are evolving and taking the swimwear to the next level. Concentrating on things they do right. Those things are the mix of colors. The gray, white and orange are such a great combo. You can’t see in this picture but the gray is a print. Top that with some amazing styles it’s a winning combination.

There are three different prints that could be considered over the top for the brand. Those are the Bomb range. Each is a bright fun color with a very small pint of popsicles, drinks, or a crab. The back is a big Aronik name with a beach print. Super fun. It s unexpected but still super fun.

One last thing is if you are looking for a solid bikini, this is a brand that hasn’t forgotten about you. Their bikini cut is pretty awesome. Make sure you go check out the new Ensign collection!

Before the Holidays we asked you if you ever gave underwear as gifts and would you shop at a men’s underwear store. We have the results and wanted to share them with you:

You guys def want to shop at a men’s underwear store.

The majority of you guys want to travel 25 miles or less to shop at a men’s underwear store

Most of you have shopped at a men’s Underwear store already. Which is higher than I thought it would be!

Much like the results above 25 miles appears to be the sweet spot for distance to an underwear store.

Most guys want the option of shopping online and also at a store.

Some of the Favorite stores you guys shop are:

  • underU4men in Portland OR
  • Andrew Christian, and some smaller ones in SF, San Diego
  • Toolbox in Indianapolis while there for other events.
  • Skivvies (Dallas), Tapelenders (Dallas), Universal Gear (Houston & DC), and 2 stores in Ft. Lauderdale/Wilton Manners in Florida.
  • Andrew Christian Flagship & Factory Stores. WeHo Block Party, When living in Northern California there were a few mens underwear stores in the Castro, but they seemed to close before I moved back to Los Angeles
  • Egoist Underwear and Cram in Chicago
  • BoyNextDoor in Atlanta
  • Mojoman, Orlando; Pride Factory, Ft Lauderdale; several others in Ft Lauderdale; one in Miami I don’t remember the name

Why do guys shop at Underwear stores?

  • I had a long layover in Portland and was downtown killing time when I happened upon the store, so I went in and shopped
  • Same day availability
  • It was nice to feel the fabrics and see the options
  • Variety. I love trying new things, and going to a dedicated men’s store exposes you to brands you might not know about
  • I like to be able to feel the fabrics if possible — Just a material description doesn’t tell the whole story. Also, when I shop in person, I am more likely to buy stuff — when I shop on line, I frequently decide its too expensive when its time to put in my credit card.

Why don’t you shop at underwear stores;

  • None close to me. Would take over an hour to travel to nearest one
  • Awkward, not sure about trying on things
  • It’s fun to go to underwear stores in a town where no one knows you. You don’t have to worry about being seen by your neighbor while shopping for thongs and jockstraps
  • I prefer places with a good selection of brands, and the closest men’s underwear stores to me are brand specific (Andrew Christian) — and even if I like the brand, I like to mix it up a bit
  • Their selection isn’t what I’m into. Lack of thong styles

If you missed the survey share with us your reasons why or why you don’t shop at underwear stores.

We have profiled a lot of thongs on Thong Thursday. Some have been wild while others have been mild. The one we are profiling today is more on the classic side. The Ergowear X3D thong. It’s a basic thong design with an amazing pouch. The X3D is one of my favorite pouches that Ergowear makes.

My personal favorites from Ergowear are the bikinis. That was the first stile that I ever loved from them. After falling in love with the X3D pouch I wanted to branch out and try a few new things. The thongs are some of my favorites. I don’t wear them weekly but only for special occasions.

This thong would be a great starter thong for any guy out there looking to try a thong. It’s super comfortable and gives amazing support. The basic design will give you a good feel for thongs. As I mentioned above these are great to have in a drawer when the thong mood hits you. Like such as a date night or a Thong Thursday.

 

COLORS: Black
FABRIC: 80% poly-amide 20% elastane
SIZES: Small – X-Large
COST: $25.00

If you are like me you’re on the constant lookout for bikinis. Which, luckily, the style is becoming easier and easier to find. More brands are starting to produce the style. One of those brands is Candyman. They have always had smaller cuts like bikinis and thongs. And sometimes even more briefer cuts! The first collection of Candyman for 2018 is out!

There are a few really great styles but there are six new bikinis that I think need special attention! Looking at the style you can see it’s a low cut, no-fly, smaller waistband and fullback. Our friend Bikinisnthongs I think would approve of us calling these bikinis. If you have been a long time reader of UNB, you know that Candyman is all about fun. These are no regular bikinis they have some great prints!

The Candyman Frosting Bikini – has a floral print. It made me do a double take to see if it was swimwear. From what I gather it’s underwear. The print is awesome and fun. The blue background makes this my favorite of the six. Underwear should be fun and this would make me happy to wear!

Candyman Cheetah Bikini – If you are a fan of animal prints you ay love the cheetah bikini. This has a solid black front with a cheetah face on the back. It’s kind of a surprise! But still is a lot of fun.

Candyman Pineapple Bikini – If the Frosting Bikini is a little much but you love floral prints. The Pineapple Bikini could be a big hit for you. It’s a pineapple print on a solid black background.

Candyman Hands Bikini – This is the most fun pair of the new collection. The hand’s bikini is a black bikini with two handprints on the back. It’s like someone had paint on their hands and grabbed your butt. I could see me wearing this on a date night and asking, hey did you put your hands there!

Candyman Lion Bikini – Just like the Cheetah bikini this is a black front with a lion face on the back! It’s definitely not your regular bikini print.

Candyman Kitty Bikini – Lastly is the Kitty Bikini. If you are a cat fan you can have underwear with a cat face on the back. Not a big game cat but a regular cat!

If you love these and want to see more Candyman go to Candyman Fashions.

There is a saying we posted on Facebook and Twitter. “When you stop believing in Santa Claus you get underwear.” I have a feeling that, like myself, we have a lot of believers of Santa reading this. I did not get any underwear under the tree this year. But I do plan on getting me a few pairs to ring in the new year. If you are in the same boat I have some ways to brighten your underwear drawer.

Just buy what you want at any price. 

If you have a stressful holiday season or year. Splurge and buy yourself that brand or pair you have had your eye on. Do something awesome for yourself. Now don’t go out and buy every pair and spend all your money. But, if you can afford a pair or two just do it! It’s something we all need to do from time to time, reward ourselves.

Scan the sales and buy! 

If you are on a more limited budget, scan the sales and strategically buy the pairs you wanted! A lot of brands are going to have year-end specials. You can score some big deals and get more for your buck. Instead of buying one pair you may be able to get 2-3 pairs or more!

Get the super deal! 

Clearance is your friend. If you’re not picky about wearing last years or seasons collection. This is the perfect way to score some awesome undies and swimwear. This past year I scored Merman Tailor swim briefs for $5 each. I also bought CARIOCA wear for $14.99 when the regular price was around $80. While at Skivvies in Dallas I bought Mundo Unico Brief and ErgoWear bikini! While the price may be right, finding your size can be an issue. If you are a medium or a large, it’s harder to find than a small or X-Large. However, for those who are willing to hunt, the reward may pay off! Also, check out sites like Cheapundies.com!

Have fun shopping and get some undies for yourself, you deserve it!

Not all the companies we cover are all about underwear and swimwear. 2EROS is releasing the new Bondi Short. This line will be out the first part of January! Here is a quick overview from 2EROS:

The S60 Bondi short is tailored to the Bondi lifestyle. Cool off and take a dip in the crystal blue waters of Bondi and sun bake on the fine white sands. Afterwards put on a buttoned shirt and stroll over to one of the many bars surrounding. Bondi shorts are also great for the gym, be the coolest kid doing your squats. Don’t worry about tearing it, it is designed to stretch.

Go look at 2EROS in the new year for these shorts.

PetitQ is a brand that is not sitting still this year. This is their 8th collection they have released this year. That is almost a new collection every month. Which is A LOT! When the PetitQ boys released their line I hoped it wouldn’t be an over the top collection that ended. And it wasn’t. They have been going strong for a few years and I think we will see a lot more of their undies!

The brand has really grown. They have kept the super sexy cuts, see-through materials, and barely there designs. These things have become one of their signatures. Over the years they have used many different fabrics that you don’t think “men’s underwear.” I think the rules of men’s underwear have been broken! Brands like PetitQ are writing new ones where masculinity is defined by the wearer, not the materials. A perfect example of this is a guy can rock a pair of lace briefs and still feel masculine and like a guy.

This new collection has a theme of cutouts. The PetitQ boys you can tell have fun creating these collections. If you follow them on social media, you will see they wear their own undies. Also, in this collection are super skimpy cuts! Which I think is a staple of the brand. Here is an overview of the new pairs!

PQ171001 – THONG W PETITQ LÉO GLAM

PQ171005 – KINI VISCONTI PETITQ LEOPARD

PQ171006 – KINI VISCONTI PETITQ WHITE

PQ171007 – Rosace Briefs

PQ171008 – Rosace Briefs

PQ171009 – W Thongs

Check out the new collection an many of the older collections. You can go to the PetitQ international site or buy local in the US at Candymanfashion.com. Go have some fun and get some great undies.

If you’re like me, the top goal of 2018 is to get into better shape. Notice I didn’t say resolution. It has to be a lifestyle change, not something you do every January. Working out requires work out wear. Sure you can wear something off the rack from a big box store or sporting goods store, but you should look good as well!

SupaWear is releasing the Apex line on January 2! Just in time for the new year and the new you! This is what SupaWear says about the Apex line:

Reach your peak performance with Apex. This collection features a form fitting style combined with Supawear’s innovative panelled designs, which focus on form and structure. Apex is designed to work and flow with your body to enhance your assets.

This collection features shorts, joggers and a hoodie. All featuring breathable fabric for comfort, a form and streamlined fit to enhance your silhouette and a side bonded zip to keep all your valuables (iPhone 8+) safe and secure while your in motion.

If you are looking for new gym gear check it out at the first of the year!

Sure, the spirit of the holiday is about giving, but now your shopping is done. You’ve trudged through the snow (or through the sweltering sun for our friends in the southern hemisphere) and you’ve battled crowds in malls and may even have bruises to show for it, but now it’s all over and we think it’s time to treat yourself.

In celebration of another shopping victory, we’re offering 15% (and in many cases more) off everything at Jockstrap Central from now until December 30th (midnight) – so treat yourself, you deserve it!

Jockstraps, jock briefs, gym shorts, fetish shorts, fetish wear, harnesses, sportswear, wrestling singlets, tank tops, briefs, trunks, socks, cock rings, full-frontal display suits and even socks are all on sale.

Thong Thursday is about celebrating thongs! But it’s not always about classic thongs. In the last year bodysuits for men are seeing an increase in popularity. Not just ones for working out but, ones for everyday wear. This includes having a thong back. More and more of these suits are ditching the reg back and going for a thong!

The company on the forefront of the Bodysuit is BodyAware. One of the thong backed suits they have is the Yoga Thong Bodysuit.  The official description is:

Our all-in-one bodysuit is designed with a thong seat and racer back. Sleekly sexy, constructed of super soft and smooth sports fabric, that will slim and display your masculine profile at its best. Perfect for yoga or any sport. Thong back with no opening between legs.

This suit can be worn working out or under casual clothes. I wouldn’t recommend it for work. The one thing above that makes that point is “no opening between legs.” This makes it difficult to go to the bathroom. You must remove it to go! For a casual day this may not be an issue but at work, it may prove difficult. You don’t want to have removed all your clothes! If you want to wear one to work look for one with an opening between legs. BodyAware does have several of them.

This would, however, be awesome for the gym. You can wear it under shorts or runners. I know we have quite a few readers who would love this at the gym or to work out in. The best thing is that it’s available in 5 different colors. Black, blue, pink, red and yellow! If you want to try a bodysuit we suggest you check out this and other ones BodyAware has to offer.

COLORS: Black, blue, pink, red and yellow
FABRIC: 85% Nylon/15% Spandex
SIZES: Small – XX-Large
COST: $38.95
