We continue our journey into Fetish Friday! What is one of the things guys always like? MESH, is almost always the answer. Mesh is one of those fabrics that never seems to go out of style. Its always on the top must have for a lot of guys. It allows you to show off to who you want and hide under clothes from others! The new Pikante Argarot Briefs are a new fun mesh design.
The mesh of the pair is made out of microfiber. I may hear your saying, yeah so what? Well, the fabric will give you amazing support and not show under clothes. To many this could be a plus or a negative. Not everyone will show off the briefs to everyone. Others like to show off what they are wearing under their clothes sometimes!
The design is really awesome and stands out. Its more of a bikini cut with white accents in both the black and green pairs. The pouch is designed to have an anatomic design. The microfiber fabric is made out of a 75% nylon, 25% spandex stretch microfiber mesh. This fabric will conform to your body better than traditional material.
Put all these things together and you get the makings of a great pair of underwear! Its sexy, fun and great to wear. Even fetish wear should be comfortable all day. Because let’s face it we all want to feel sexy every day!
Lastly, I would say that the green draws my attention. Not just because I love green, but it’s a different color for the world of men’s underwear. The black pair pops and us über sexy. Being black also makes it a bit more see through. The green will leave more to the imagination and be a little different.
The Argorot Brief is available at Candyman Fashion for $20.48!

Pikante is a brand that always has some interesting styles and prints. This collection is no different. It consists of some very sexy cuts, great prints and bright colors. I you are brand new to Picante a few things you need to know. Some of the styles can be very provocative! They aren’t afraid to use mesh that shows it all off! Lastly, its about fun with the brand. You can wear it to a date night or under a suit.
We are going to profile a few of the pairs that we really like!
Pikante PIK 8398 Nozomi Boxer – Black or Green
This pair is great for a trunk fan! The print is something different and not one you would really see in the world of underwear. Its available in black and green. The small waistband elastic forms a supportive pouch and it contains a full back. They used this print in a few different styles! The boxer is $24.48 at Candyman Fashion
PIK 8665 Argot Briefs – Black or Green
Picante always has mesh in the collection. Its the kind of mesh that leaves very little to the imagination. The new Argot Briefs at first glance isn’t totally see through but it’s not going to hide much either. This can be a good thing depending on where you wear it. The pair has a bikini cut with white trim in both colors. The front does have a pouch that will show off what you have under jeans or pants. My personal favorite is the green. It’s because it’s a different color than we are used to in underwear. The Argot Briefs retails for $20.48 at Candyman Fashions
Pikante PIK 9244 Teyotl Jockstrap Thong – Black or Blue
Pikante is no stranger to the hybrid pair. In the last few years more and more brands are making them. Picante is releasing the Jock Thong in these prints. You maybe asking what is a jock thong? Its what you see above. From the front it looks just like a jock but from the back it has leg straps of a jock and the center strap from a thong. This is the other print they are using this season. Its very low key. The black has the black waistband and the blue has the white. The Peyotl Jockstrap Thong is $25.48 at Candyman Fashion.
These are just three styles in the new Picante. See the entire new collection at the GDD World Picante 2015-2 Page. You can shop at Candyman Fashion! See our post earlier for sale information!

It’s Fetish FRIDAY! How many of you out there are excited? How many are participating? If you aren’t think about doing it next week or on a date! Most Fetish Friday’s we cover something skimpy and small. Let’s face it there are a lot of us out there who love this type of underwear. Bare as you dare as they say. And there is nothing wrong with that at all!
There are other pairs that are considered fetish that aren’t skimpy. When anything larger comes to mind I think of leather shorts or chaps. We aren’t going that far this week but we do have a super fun pair. It’s the Pikante Drako Boxer. What makes this pair so much fun is the sides. Each side has three straps that join the front and back. Which will show off a little skin on the sides!
The Drako boxer is made out of a shiny 95% polyester 5% spandex fabric. It gives it a sort of rubber/latex look. The front does have a contoured pouch that will give you some great support. The back is a full back (well where the straps end) as well. The waistband is a shiny almost metallic Pikante waistband that really off sets the pair.
The color of the pair is something that may throw you. Each side of the boxer is a different color. The gold is gold in the front but red in the back. Where as the black is black in front and white in the back. This design feature really gets the pair off well. It’s creative and super fun.
If you are looking for something different and fun we suggest you check out the Pikante Drako Boxer. Get either the Gold, Black or both! Find this pair at Candyman Fashion for $34.48

Bryce has another review this time the Pikante Perseus brief from GDD World. See how he liked the pair!
Pikante is another one of those brands that I have always associated with a more daring, sexy look to their underwear. Several of their items that I have seen online seem like they are better suited for a night of fun in the bedroom as opposed to a long day at the office. So when I received my next review pair you can imagine what thought went through my head. I opened up the package and found Pikante’s Mardi Gras Mesh Thong in my hands for my review. This pair of underwear does not have a lot of fabric to it and leave pretty much nothing to the imagination. What was my first thought? How am I going to make it through a work day wearing this? I will be honest and say that I decided to start off small on this one and wore it on a date to dinner.
The thong has an elastic waistband featuring the Pikante logo around it several times. The logo is a fun font including a pepper for the “i” adding a little spice to the name. The material is a nylon and spandex combination which at first touch, feels a little rougher than what you are used to. Apart from the waistband, there is very little material and very little cover up. Prior to my evening out, I slipped the pair on to make sure I could be comfortable to last through dinner. The look of this thong is so sexually intriguing its hard not to feel a little excited wearing it for someone. Underneath the waistband, there is no fabric, leaving the entire pubic area and bottom of the shaft visible. Personal tip: You may want to trim prior to wearing this pair of underwear for added visual appeal. Two straps dive down to create a mesh see thru pouch that holds the remainder of your package. As you can see, everything is visible when you wear this thong so you will leave nothing to the imagination for whoever you choose to see you wearing it. The back of the thong continues the trend of the little to no fabric with the classic “T” look. There is a thin strap coming straight down from the middle of the back of the waistband, resting between the cheeks to form a “T”. There is no other fabric for the back, leaving everything exposed. You would not think this would be a comfortable pair of 
underwear to wear and that it is purely meant for the bedroom but I have to say, I was pleasantly surprised how comfortable I was in it during my evening out.
I wear a medium and although there is not much fabric to determine whether or not things are truly to size, I did feel the waistband was on the tighter side but I had enough room and comfort in the pouch to offset any discomfort from the tighter waistband. The strap down the back did not pose any discomfort and to me was very unnoticeable.
All in all I was surprised that the underwear was more functional underneath a pair of jeans than anticipated. I definitely feel that this is a pair that you will wear with a purpose as I did. You can’t beat the design. It is so appealing to look at and that is what I love about underwear. Not all underwear is made for your basic everyday wear and that is what this is. I may still try to wear it throughout a work day coming up to see how it holds up. As I mentioned for this review, I wore this pair on a date and had a great time going through dinner knowing what was underneath my clothes. And at the end of the night, I think my date appreciated it too.

Have you guys checked out the new line from Pikante? If not head over to the GDD World site and check out the new Fall/Winter line they just released.
Pikante has released their new Fall/Winter 2014 Collection. Over the last few year Pikante has gone to the wild side! Not saying this is a bad thing. Letting your wild side out is something you have to do every so often! The theme for this year is metallics, mesh and pouch enhancing (well more show off than enhancing).
I really like this collection because it’s super fun. Pikante is not one of those companies to make the same things over and over. They have a few staples but most are new designs, styles and fabrics. My favorite from this collection is the Amadeus Boxer in gray (Main pic above). Just something super sexy to me about it.
I would like to think that this line would be worn all the time and not as a fetish pair. I mean I’d love to see some metallics worn under a suit, khakis or uniform. Make the day better with some super fun underwear! If this is too Tame for you they have pairs that your business will fit in and show off totally, that pair is the Castro Brief. I’m not sure they would be great work pairs but I could see them for a date night.
I just wanted to inform you guys on the new line is out! To check out the line go to GDD World and see every pair in this collection. We will bring you more on specific pairs soon but enjoy some of the lifestyle pics of the brand
This is the Throwback Thursday edition of the Brief Distraction. This features Pikante from 2103. We hope you enjoy a look back at the collection.
Are you a fan of something fun and metallic? The new Go Go Brief (8647) from Pikante is the perfect pair for you. This collection from Pikante is definitely a walk on the wild side. It’s so wild we can’t promote much on Facebook. I know many of our readers will love the collection. I know for a fact we have a few straight readers who will go crazy over some of these pairs!
The Go Go Brief is available in three metallic fabrics; Gold, Silver and Black. Each one has a snap off pouch. Which allows you easy access for those times when you want to have some fun. We know there are some out there who would never wear undies like this but for a whole set of guys this is fun and something exciting.
The back of this pair has a mesh panel at the top. It’s not a super see through mesh and doesn’t cover the entire back. Its only about the top third of the back. Gives you just enough of a peek. It also has similar snaps that you see on the pouch. It’s a lot of fun.
You maybe asking, “Would you wear this pair?” Honestly, I would give it a try. I think we all need to push ourselves and try something new. My biggest concern would be the pouch. Would it hold through the day? The material is a Polyester/Spandex blend so it should hold you in place and feel good.
If you’re up for something fun then definitely check this pair out. If you want something wilder, this new collection has even more you will like! These should be rolling out to retailers as we speak!

This is my second review of Pikante this week. I will say Pikante is becoming one of my favorite underwear companies. The pair I am reviewing is the 9220 Jockbrief. This isn’t so much of a jockbrief as a jock bikini. It’s a smaller cut then usual jock briefs from other brands. I have one other jock brief and a pair of boxer briefs from Pikante. The other jock brief has a great fit and I hoped this one was going to have a simlar fit.
The Pikante 9220 Jock brief is available in four colors. Those are white, red, blue and black. Each pair has a contrasting trim around the waist, legs and back openings. Made out of 94% Cotton, 6% Spandex blend fabric. Which felt good through out the day. The waistband is a smaller waistband that had me worried if it would hold up through out the day.
I wore this pair to work and when I first slid the pair on on it made me feel a bit naughty. I haven’t had too many jock briefs and the opening in the back, didn’t feel odd but felt nice and did I say naughty because everything was hanging out! The waistband issue I mentioned above didn’t cause problems. It held me up as I ran around work and did some errands. I received the red with black trim. I loved the color combination
Sizing in Pikante is pretty well matched to the sizing chart. I received an XL and it fit my 36-waist fine. This is definitely smaller then typical US sizing but if you follow the chart listed on websites you shouldn’t have a problem getting the right fit.
Some things I liked were the smaller size of the brief. It fit me just right and felt great through out the day. Next, I love the color combination with the trim. They could have made it a solid color but added a bit of pop. My suggestion for improvement is minor. The Cotton/Spandex blend felt great but I’d love to see this with a nylon/spandex blend. Some other pairs I have with this blend just fit so well. The nylon/spandex could make it more form fitting.

Pikante furnished this pair for review
We all agree that underwear should be fun. I decided to put that statement to a test. When I got a chance to pick some Pikante I chose the metallic silver Spotlight Anatoimc brief. It is not one that I would normally wear on a daily basis but sometimes we have to step outside the underwear comfort zone and try something new. This is the third pair of Pikante I have tried since loosing my weight.
My first impression was it’s a really cool pair, being all bright and shiny. The material is metallic (Polyester 93%, Spandex 7%.) but didn’t seem like it would stretch like other pairs I have received from Pikante. I was a little worried about the fit. On top of that is it has a zipper in the pouch. Need I go into detail how that can be bad for a guy? I don’t think so. But I always try to have an open mind and I took an extra pair of undies to work just in case this pair didn’t work out.
I wore this pair to work. I didn’t want to do a review that was too intensive because I wasn’t sure how well this pair would hold up. The main concerns were it’s ability to move and breathe. So in the morning I put it on and liked the look of it. The fit surprised me; it didn’t fit as tight as I thought it would. It was snug but not too tight. As I wore it through the day my worries about it not breathing were put to rest. I could barely tell I was wearing a metallic pair. Granted I wouldn’t wear it to the gym or running but for daily wear or a date night you should be fine.
The zipper maybe a concern to most of you guys. I didn’t find it as a bother. The zipper is covered with fabric so it didn’t rub me in the wrong places. You may ask if I used it. For the review I unzipped it a few times during the day. Each time I as super careful zipping up. It worked fine and its not just decorative.
If you are familiar with Pikante and their sizing chart it’s pretty much spot on. I’m a size 36 waist and the XL fit me fine. I believe the XL fits 36-38. If you’re close to a 38 you may have an issue. These aren’t made for bigger guys. Being a former bigger guy it can be frustrating to find great undies in larger sizes. But follow the size guide and you should be fine.
I really liked this pair. Will I wear it weekly, probably not but it will definitely be a fun pair to wear on occasion. The major down fall for this pair is it’s hand watch only. If you wash it in the washer you may find the metallic fabric may not hold up. So put in the washer at your own risk. I would say another great place to wear this would be in a costume if you go to Cons. There could be some super creative things you can do with it. But for my daily wear it made me feel sexy all day, no one knew that I was wearing such a fun pair under my pants.

Pikante furnished this pair for review. The pair is also available n black
When I first received my pair of Pikane Biologic Piping Briefs in the mail, I wasn’t so sure about what I saw. They appeared way too small for my size, used a strange combination of colors and felt a little bit weird. I hadn’t tried any other pairs by the brand, and heard good things, so I figured I’d give them a whirl. This particular style comes in three colors–I tried the purple/grey combination.
Before writing this review, I wore the pair for a fairly normal day for me. I rode the bus 45 minutes to work, sat in my office working all day long and then wore them as my pajamas for a night’s sleep. Though I didn’t really have an “active day,” I think this pair would hold up really well regardless of what you’re doing, because the material was so lightweight and comfortable.
I have a 29-inch waist and got a size small. I found the pair to be true-to-size, but definitely on the smaller/tighter end of the scale. They’re also fairly stretchy. The sizing is Columbian..
Overall, I really liked the feel of this pair against my skin, which really surprised me. They’re 100% polyester and I almost never go with that. The material was extremely breathable. My heritage leans heavy on the Italian side, so I can sweat profusely on a typical day. I didn’t experience any of that with these. They also fit surprisingly well–not too tight as I had initially thought they would be when I received them. I think the look is what could use the most improvement. Though the purple-gray combination definitely grew on me, I found both the pattern and the waistband to be a bit cheesy.
Though I initially thought that this pair wasn’t for me, after about 24 hours of wear, I was presently surprised–the fit was perfect, the material comfortable and the look fair. They also passed the boyfriend test–I showed them to him at the end of the day and he thought they were great. To sum up:
