Maclovia is one of those brands that I had never heard of before, but it is one that is going to stick in my mind. From the moment that I saw the look of these undies to the moment that I tried them one, I LOVED THEM.
UNB sent me the Maclovia Platinum Teal PT339 trunk in a size small to review. One of the first things that I noticed was the bold choice in color. These trunks are white with blocks of navy and heather grey color. They are very bold but don’t overwhelm. The trunk featured a closed fly with a very roomy front pouch. The waistband is a 1.5 inch silver metallic material with the Maclovia logo. The fabric is amazing. It is soft and provides enough stretch for great movement and all-day wear.
These are a trunk style cut, so they are going to be a little shorter in the inseam. They sit just below the waist, which is exactly where I like it. The fit is pretty true. I usually wear a medium (32 waist), but these smalls fit. They were a little tight, but not enough for me to send them back. I did notice they did shrink a little after the first time I washed them.
PRO’s:
- The Look – If you are looking for a bold but not to flashy pair of undies, these and the other Maclovia styles are for you.
- The Fabric – The fabric is soft yet sturdy and provides enough stretch for all-day, everyday wear.
CON’s
- The Waistband – The waistband is pretty standard, but I noticed that it is pretty stiff and doesn’t offer a lot of give. If you get a pair that doesn’t fit right, that could be uncomfortable.

Lots of great looking undies; and if you don’t see anything you like, keep checking back as according to their website they are providing new styles quarterly.
