What’s Hot in the US from Mensunderwearstore.com

No Comments

PicFrame 3

We have teamed up with Mensunderwearstore to bring you some of the hottest underwear in the US. Its always great to hear form a retailer whats really going well and is hot!

TX310203200334505-F1000

2XIST 3-pack No-Show Brief
Everybody loves multi-packs. With 2(X)IST’s 100% cotton No Show Briefs in 3-packs, you can have the comfort, style and edge of hot basics in tons of colors and an updated brief style. These give you great variety – and at a great price.

NKNKDCBMTWHITE-F1000

Naked Cotton Modal Trunk
Comfortable underwear should feel like it’s not even there – that’s the theory behind Naked’s designs. The NKD Cotton Modal trunk combines an even mix of cotton (for the soft feel every guy loves) and modal (which brings luxury and a more sleek feel into the picture). The NKD trunk will give you a body-hugging silhouette and  an incredibly cozy fit.

TX310372590140122-F1000

2XIST Pro Sliq Brief
These are one of our hottest items this month. The 2(X)IST Pro Sliq Brief has a little something for everybody with the bold neon yellow, the black and navy neutrals and the high-tech “lazer” prints. These come in a nylon-spandex blend, so they’re silky smooth and stretchy.
GA3A71111138900135-F400

Emporio Armani Basic Stretch Modal Trunk
These are the epitome of luxury. Emporio Armani’s modal line is one of the sleekest on the market. With these, you’ll have the trademark body-contouring fit and classic look for which Emporio Armani is renowned. Wear them for a hot date, a classy event or for everyday wear – these upscale basics are everything you’ll want and need in a trunk.

DLNAAV00CG3JNAAV02-F1000

Diesel Stripes Multi-Color Briefs
We love a good print – and Diesel’s Stripes Multi-Color collection hits the mark. The super modern stripes pattern is contoured by hems in different colors, which make these pop even more. They’re cozy briefs in soft cotton with a tiny bit of elastane blended in, so they stretch to fit your body. Diesel loves it when its wearers dare to “be bold.” These briefs do just that.

CKU8908F6AS-F1000

CK Bold Micro Low-Rise Trunk
It wouldn’t be a “What’s Hot” without including the newest Calvin Klein. The Micro Low-Rise Trunk modernizes the traditional CK style, and the details are in the contour lines: a rounded contour pouch with connecting hems from along the sides of the front panel to the bottom-front of the trunks. We love the rich colors these come in – Aegean sea (teal), deep orchid (dark purple) and Nuvo (the deep lavender shade) – and the microfiber blend feels so soft on the skin.

UnderGear Issues an Apology

2 Comments

PicFrame 2It’s not often we cover apologies on UNB. Heck its not that often they are released in the world of underwear. We have given a few over the years but we’ve never seen them from a company that feels they may have not lived up to a customers expectations. I know quite a few companies that should issues them, they are in the world of undies and out.

I received this apology from UnderGear via email and a mailed letter. The snail mail is what impressed me the most. Here is what it said:

Dear Valued Customer:

We’re always proud to be the first to bring you the newest underwear fashions that come to the market, and bring them right to your door. But lately, our service hasn’t been up to our expectations.

In March of this year, we started making enhancements to our distribution and shipping procedures, and unfortunately, it’s taken longer than expected. Orders that should have been lightening fast took too long, communications were not as timely, and other mistakes were made.

Simply put: If we let you down, we are sorry

We don’t take your loyalty for granted — in face, we’re going to keep working to make your experience with us better, faster and more satisfying than ever. That is what you expect from us, and we promise to deliver.

Then it went on to give 20% off your next order. I like it when a company steps up and takes responsibility. It makes me look at them in a better light to me. I say good job Undergear. Will this sway you to shop there, I don’t know but it’s making me look at them again for my underwear shopping.

Underwear for the Guy with a Bubble Butt

No Comments

34712_White-2_Sport

First off I would like to say hi, I’m Bryce and I have a bubble butt. As the proud owner of a bubble butt I have learned that not many underwear brands think about guys with butts.

Having a bubble butt can be an amazing thing. It makes your pants look good, and helps hold your pants up so you don’t have to have a belt. It can get you attention from guys. You also have cushion if you are clumsy like I am.

Underwear looks amazing on a bubble butt but after awhile it can look less than great. This is my one big complaint to underwear brands. For guys with bubble butts some underwear just stretches out. It becomes uncomfortable and starts to ride up.

My biggest recommendation for underwear brands is to make it with fabric that is more flexible. Briefs can be especially bad since there is not extra fabric on the legs. I have found some brands make the leg holes with strong enough elastic that it won’t stretch out.

Some great brands I have found so far include 2xist, Andrew Christian, Express and Clever.

With 2xist I haven’t ever found a style I don’t love with them. One of my favorite styles is the Sports Collection they released a couple years ago. The fabric is soft and has plenty of stretch for a bubble butt. They don’t stretch out or get baggy feeling after hours of wear. The 2xist Plaid line from 2 years ago was also a great style. It was less sporty feeling and just a nice cotton material. Would stretch perfectly and continue to look great on by the end of the day.

Express actually makes some great underwear. I wouldn’t recommend it for people with bigger bulges because they don’t make big pouches. The material is simple but does stretch well. I mainly have sport trunks and boxer briefs which make it easier to fit a butt. I did recently purchase some Express briefs and really like them. The elastic around the leg is perfect and stays tight after a day of movement.

I have one pair of Clever. While the pair doesn’t have the stretch others do I still love them. I think one of the main reasons I love them is how they hug my butt. The pair fit perfectly and clings to the butt like you see in all the underwear ads.

What are some favorite brands of other guys with bubble butts? We want to hear from you guys which brands fit the best for a bubble butt!

Underwear Nation’s Amazing Photography – Interview with Photo Jerrad

No Comments

Dan-B7

Underwear Nation is run by two amazing guys. Two guys I have met and love talking too. They have come on the underwear scene with AMAZING photography. I thought it would be great to interview Jerrad one of the Owners and photographer at Underwear Nation. Find out how they do the amazing pictures and see whats coming soon from them.

You guys came on to the underwear market in the last year, your photography has set you part, did you initially set out to do that?

Yes.  Exactly that.  The idea for Underwear Nation came about because an old friend, Todd, approached me after years apart because he had seen my photography on a blog.  He said, I want to start an underwear company with you, with your photography as the focus.  I was sold then and there.

Varsity1b

You come up with themes it seems with each month, this past one was set in a locker room, what is your creative process for the monthly theme?

Honestly… this may sound cliche, but it just comes to me.  Sometimes I think of a theme I want to shoot and we find the underwear to match the theme.  Sometimes we find underwear we can’t live without and it inspires the theme. This month we had a theme in mind leading all the way up to our underwear purchase… then we ordered the Timoteo Varsity Collection and everything changed.

Is there a theme for a shoot that was too difficult or proved to be to complex to do?

So far, as our themed issues are a relatively young idea for us, we’ve been able to keep everything pretty simple, yet sexy. So nothing too crazy has come up quite yet.  Although the more we do, the more creative and unique I’ll be forced to become. I hate repeating myself in my art.  I’m definitely looking forward to doing a duo issue with two models someday soon.

Jake-B4b

Where do you find your amazing models?

Well, it just so happens that I also own a model agency here in West Michigan where we’re based.  That helps a LOT.

Have you thought about taking your great photography and making cards or posters of them? They are literally works of art.  

Awe. Thank you!  Yes, we’ve considered selling products like posters or books.  I think we wanted to get a little more material together before doing that.  But remember, our members get a collectable card from each month’s shoot included in their shipment.

Ajdin-B4
You did a find the model contest this past year, are you going to do another next year? How did the shoot with the winner go?

The shoot with the winner of last year’s Face of the Nation contest went really well!  He was fun and enthusiastic and great in front of the lens.  We will definitely be doing another contest in 2014.  We have some plans to make it even bigger and better!

What can we expect from Underwear Nation this next year?

Well, you can expect us to continue to grow.  We plan to expand our product offering even more, while still holding true to our strict standards of quality, comfort, style and fit.  We will still carefully curate every item we choose to sell, but add a lot more variety.  We may even introduce some new memberships!

Oh, and our new and improved Ambassador Program just launched! Guys who are as passionate about underwear as we are can earn real money for referring others to Underwear Nation.  They simply sign up, share their custom Ambassador Link, and start earning cash for every sale made from that link! We’re excited about the growth of that program over the next year.

Style Brief – aussieBum Milk Range

No Comments

IS_und_milk_brf_strawberry_01_131114135724Being a big underwear fan, I like to think great underwear is good for us. Which is what I tell myself when I buy new pairs. But the new pair from aussieBum maybe just that, good for you. The new limited edition range is called Milk.

The range is “made using real milk fibres that are specially designed to capture moisture and nourish your skin leaving it tender and smooth. These eco-friendly, lightweight and breathable undies are so silky-soft you won’t believe how delicious they’ll make you feel. Available in hipster and brief in both strawberry and vanilla.”

aussieBum says the the milk fabric will nourish your skin. So this mean’s that this underwear is good for you! My theory is upheld! So why not buy some of these and tell anyone who gives you a hard time you have too much underwear, that its good for your skin!

My take is these are really fun and cool. Why something about the colors just makes it great. The blue waistband and either pink or white just compliment each other. Having owned quite a few pairs of aussieBum I know they will be made out of the best materials and fit great!

Just available in the brief and hipster and only available in Vanilla (white) and Strawberry (pink). Like they said they are only available for a limited time so don’t miss out on them! Just when you think aussieBum is done putting out new pairs, BAM here is a new one and they keep outdoing themselves.

Style Brief – Rufskin Larson

No Comments

1390761_748582665156144_1865879603_nOver the past we weeks I have been talking to members of our focus group. There is one thing most guys really like, whether they are gay or straight, it’s we should cover more fetish inspired pairs. I know this won’t be every day wear or even to the gym, but let’s face it, we all want to feel sexy.

One of those brands that has super sexy underwear and clothing is Rufskin.  Rufskin makes it their mission to make “vintage, sexy, masculine, athletic and futuristic” clothing. They are great at accomplishing that goal. One of the newest pairs is the Larson Brief. Rufskin is no stranger to making mesh underwear for men. As you can tell by this picture it has a sheer mesh back, and a solid pouch. Perfect for the guy how has assets to show off!

The Larson is available in white or black in a Body: 95% cotton 5% spandex Trim: 90% nylon 10% spandex fabric blend. It has a double layer pouch with a white waistband and trim. One very important thing to know is the sizing. Rufskin is one of those brands that only make small, medium and large The large fits 32-34 waist. So keep that in mind when looking for new undies.

This pair to me is sexy without being too much over the top. Mesh is a trend that keeps going strong in men’s underwear. I think that it has moved beyond trend and more into a men’s underwear staple. I think a great pair of mesh underwear should be in every guys underwear drawer.

Find this pair on the Rufskin website for $29.00 or at your favorite websites.

New Stretch Mesh Country Jocks at Jockstrap Central

No Comments

pulse-mesh-country-jockstraps

Pulse has another hit on their hands. First was the Stretch Mesh jockstraps, then the Sheer Wrestling Singlets (which we can never keep in stock) and now a combination of those two – the Stretch Mesh Country Jockstraps.

Made with Pulse’s remarkable four way stretch mesh fabric and sublimation printed with some of our favorite country’s flags, these jockstraps are unbelievably sexy, totally erotic and completely stylish. Upon first glance, you’ll probably wonder how that skimpy little pouch is going to hold your junk but not to worry, it not only molds to fit what you’ve got but when you get excited from wearing this hot jockstraps the fabric s-t-r-e-t-c-h-e-s to accommodate you rock hard (need proof? just check out the photos of our model Jack on our website for a demonstration!) Even hotter is that the mesh is fully see-through – as is all the Pulse gear we carry.

Of course it wasn’t enough for Pulse to just print the mesh fabric, they also styled the waistband: It’s a heavy-duty one inch wide white comfort elastic edged in blue with the country printed front and center (except Germany) and includes three quarter inch sturdy comfort elastic leg straps in matching colors.

Don a country’s jockstrap but be sure to stand at attention to show your true patriotism – everyone will be looking.

One word of warning: Pulse gear is very popular, always sells out and usually takes up to 6 months to restock so get them while you can
RESTOCKS: PULSE MESH WRESTLING SINGLETS

Along with our shipment of the new Pulse jockstraps, we also received a handful of the Pulse Mesh Wrestling Singlets, but only Canada and USA. There’s not a lot, but if you act quickly you may be able to snag one.

Find both of these at Jockstrap Central

Croota Featured in New Film Called Out To Kill

No Comments

OTKUnderwearShot

Leading gay film producer and distributor Guest House Films today announced the start of production on its seventh feature film – a gay murder mystery with the working title of Out to Kill.  The film will be written and directed by Rob Williams, and produced by Williams and Rodney Johnson.

Out To Kill is an intricate and witty “whodunit” murder mystery centered around a group of gay men living in a Florida loft complex. When one of their own is found dead in the building’s central courtyard, his neighbors enlist the help of Jim Noble, the resident private eye, to track down the killer. With its surprise ending and tropical location, the film offers a sexy, gay twist to the traditional murder mystery.

Principal photography has begun in Tampa, Florida — a departure from the company’s previous films, which were all shot around Southern California in locations that included Los Angeles, Big Bear and Palm Springs.

“The people of Tampa and St. Petersburg have always been extremely supportive of our films, and have often offered to help if we ever decided to shoot a film in the area,” said Williams. “So I returned to Florida earlier this year, found some great locations, and then wrote the script with Tampa in mind.”

“Rob and I both share insatiable appetites for anything within the mystery genre, so it’s unbelievably exciting to make one of our very own,” said Johnson. “The script is great, and I can’t wait to see what Rob does as a director with Out To Kill.”

Out To Kill will be the seventh gay-themed feature film from production company Guest House Films, writer/director Rob Williams and producer Rodney Johnson.  The company’s previous films have included hits like The Men Next Door, Make The Yuletide Gay, and Role/Play.  The film also will expand the company’s distribution catalogue, following the release of Role/Play and The Men Next Door, the short film compilations Black Briefs and Blue Briefs, and the Australian documentary The Doctor’s Wife.
The three actors, wearing Croota and Andrew Christian, are Lee Williams, Christopher John Cutillo, and Nicolas Burgos (from L to R).

Some information on Croota’s “Tennis Fever” range of underwear, featured in this still.

“Inspired by the Croota in-house design team’s love for tennis, the lo-rise hipster trunk comes in two versatile color variations, Sky Blue and Blue Indigo, and also features three different embroidery colors on the lower back. The numbers “00” are in a bold-faced white font on the top right of the rear to symbolize the starting score of a tennis match. It’s the perfect brief for guys on or off the court.

“Tennis Fever” is made of 95% cotton and 5% spandex, and retails for $18.90 USD.  For more information about Croota Underwear or to purchase a pair of “Tennis Fever” lo-rise trunks, please visit www.croota.com.”

Style Brief – PPU 1359 Thong

No Comments

1358-blue-1

I know many readers on the blog find thongs are one of the things you either like or hate. This post is for the guys who love thongs. All too often we forget about our thong guys, and many of our writers have said that every guy should wear a thong at some point. I personally like thongs, granted not for every day wear, but they are fun to mix things up every now and then.

PPU is a brand not afraid to show off what you have, meaning a lot of their stuff is skimpy and fun! The 1359 Thong is one that I really love. First off it comes in red or blue. Each has the a PPU signature waistband, that is only about 2/3 around the waist. As you can see by the picture it has a ring with three straps attaching the pouch. I really think this is a cool design.

These are made out of Nylon 93% Spandex 7%. It should fit pretty well. Sizing for PPU runs small so we would recommend getting a size up from what you normally wear. If you don’t you maybe disappointed.

PPU doesn’t step outside the box, they have created their own box to design underwear in. You never know what they will produce. If you are a big thong fan check them out. If you want something super fun and not an every day pair then these are for you! Find them at retailers on line!

D.HEDRAL to Launch First Flagship Store in London

No Comments

DHEDRAL_MF-Beach

Italian bodywear brand D.HEDRAL opens its first store on London’s iconic Neal Street at the end of this month.

The flagship store will offer innovative luxury mens and womens underwear and beachwear designed and manufactured in Italy.

Award winning architects Lazzarini & Pickering have been enlisted to design the store that will fuse both the digital ecommerce and physical retail experiences.

The interior concept described by Lazzarini & Pickering as ‘striking, sophisticated and user-friendly’ is designed to be modular, versatile and adaptable. D.HEDRAL plans to hold events in-store and it was therefore important to create a design that could be flexible and accommodate a particular stage or setting. This concept will be rolled-out internationally over the coming years in key territories around the world.

With a nod to D.HEDRAL’s beachwear collections shoppers will be embraced with two structures of nautical sailing rope that suspend silhouettes showcasing the product offering.

“It’s a new image to what one finds in the traditional retail landscape so it’s going be very striking. Sophisticated because of the detail and materials that represents the brand. User-friendly because it’s about dissolving the barrier between the web and physical presence. It is the best of both worlds.” – Lazzarini & Pickering

AngleFit Technology used throughout D.HEDRAL’s underwear and beachwear is a brand-new fit concept that will be communicated. To achieve this, shoppers will experience a state-of-the-art, interactive ‘Minority Report’ viewing platform that screens D.HEDRAL’s product offering, an introduction to AngleFit, and acts as the gateway to the ecomms experience.

D.HEDRAL AngleFit underwear and beachwear offers a more tailored fit by introducing an angle that increases the elasticity of the fabric covering the glutes. This improves support and creates a more flattering silhouette.

For customers that desire a more bespoke custom fit from their underwear or beachwear D.HEDRAL offers ‘Gigolo Joe’ for men and ‘Gia’ for women.

These styles with the iconic thermotape Y-back present three angles per traditional waistband measurement for a slim, average or full shape bum. These additional angles create a perfect figure-hugging second skin.

Store Address: 38 Neal Street, Covent Garden, London, WC2H 9PS

A new video is released called, La Sirena, a love story shot by Daniel Jaems on the sandy beaches of Barbados, stars former Scottish international rugby player Thom Evans and Brazilian model Paolla Rahmeier exploring the fragility of love.

The film celebrates D.HEDRAL’s flagship store launch later this month at 38 Neal Street, Covent Garden, London (previously the M.A.C Cosmetics store).
