Iconic Aussie underwear brand 2wink Australia has added two sexy new ranges of swimwear briefs to its collection, entitled “Bondi & Surfers.” The new ranges highlight a removable “Bulge Booster” pouch that makes up for those embarrassing cold water moments.
The “Bondi 2026” range is an exclusively black pair of swim briefs, which name represents the postal code for Bondi Beach in New South Wales, Australia, and the exclusively blue pair is called “Surfers 4217,” which is named for the postal code of Surfers Paradise in Queensland, Australia. Each pair includes the “Bulge Booster” foam mould that can be inserted into or removed from an inside pocket in the front pouch.
The ranges, modeled by Ryan Burke and shot by photographer Russell Fleming, highlight the 2wink Australia logo with an exclusive Southern Cross emblem that represents Dante’s four moral virtues associated with the four main stars, including Justice, Prudence, Temperance and Fortitude.
“The brand represents a subtle, iconic nature about the man who is donning them,” says 2wink Australia co-owner Carl McNeill. “He’s confident, though simultaneously conscious of himself as he either removes or inserts the removable foam mould in the front pouch.”
The 100% Aussie-made Bondi & Surfers swimsuits are made from imported Italian Nylon. The physique-showcasing swimsuit briefs are fully lined on the inside and include a drawstring and pipe-styled nickel toggles. Each swimsuit retails for around $79 USD (free worldwide shipping), and are available online at www.2wink.com.au.

I’ve really enjoyed reviewing Pistol Pete. The newest pair I received is the Rookie Trunk. And while I don’t wear trunks often, I was happy to throw these on and give them a try. Pistol Pete always uses eye catching patterns and color combinations; the pair I received are red, white, and blue. Perfect for July! 72% Polyester, 25% Rayon, and 3% Spandex, they felt great.
I wore these on my day off, which depending on the day can be very active or completely consumed by watching bad TV all day. On this particular day I spent most of the day running errands and window shopping. They were comfortable for the most part. The pouch in front is nice and definitely provided support. Part of the reason I don’t wear trunks often is that they tend to ride up on the legs. These did as well, so I found myself tugging on them periodically during the day. Of course, for someone who is used to wearing trunks this may not be an issue. I am a big fan of underwear that has a center seam in the back like these trunks do. A couple of times when I sat down I would feel the seam get a little tighter and the waist drop a little lower in the back. It wasn’t uncomfortable, just not something I am used to. The curse of having a bubble butt.
I really love the color combinations for this trunk. The pattern makes it almost look like a pair of briefs with something underneath. The stitching on the front center really defines the pouch. If you like a nice defined seat then these trunk will work for you.
Pros
- Great colors
- Pouch front
- Breathable fabric
Cons
- Legs tend to ride up

Its hard to keep up with the underwear Andrew Christian produces. They are one of the underwear companies that comes out with one new pair a week. Sometimes more then one! The new pair we are profiling is the Zuma Jock. The Zuma jock is a limited edition pair of underwear, so if you want it you need to buy it now before it’s gone.
This pair is perfect for someone who wants a little extra room up front. Made with his signature jock look. If you loo you will see the front looks very much like a brief but the back is pure jock. It’s a very cool design and he’s taken to make most of his jocks in this form. If you are a big fan of Andrew Christian you definitely need to check it out.
Features:
- 1 3/4 inch logo elastic waistband – signature waistband
- Open back jock with straps
- Trendy and sleek stripes for added style
- Easy care machine wash warm, tumble dry low
Available at the Andrew Christian site for $22.50 and only available in Blue/Grey.

Our first Underwear of the Month as voted by our readers is the C-IN2 Grip Profile Brief. It was a close vote but in the end C-IN2 won it! We had a very big response for the first time and expect it to grow! Here are what some of the readers said about the pair:
- These are the most comfortable fitting briefs I have ever worn. Great for everyday or gym use!
- Because, the briefs are sexy!
- Made for majority of men
- Sexy but practical for everyday wear.
- I just got these briefs. They are amazing. The fabric is great, the fit is sexy and the color scheme is awesome!
- One of the better looking briefs to come out this year.
Each month we will profile what the readers who voted on the pair said. We got some great comments from each pair! So next month comment and you could find it on the blog.
Find this pair at C-IN2 for $24.00
Anyone who knows me and my love of underwear knows that I love the N2N brand. They always create styles and cuts that accentuate the important parts while providing great comfort at the same time. I received the Haze Pouch brief in blue in a size medium. “Hand spun and dyed”, this underwear is 90% cotton 10% spandex. And true to N2N, they were a hit with me.
Typical of many N2N lines, this brief has a pouch front. The pouch provides support and lift, pushing the goods forward more than regular cut briefs. When I pulled them on, I immediately knew I would love them. They felt great. Throughout my work day I felt like I was almost wearing nothing, the fabric is so soft. A couple of times I had to adjust the pouch, as it seemed to stretch a little as the day went on.
I love the patterns this brief comes in. I got them in Indigo Blue; they also come in Sunset Yellow. The fabric is such that it appears slightly transparent even though it is really not.
Pros
- pouch front
- feels good on the skin
- fun pattern
Cons
- pouch stretches a little

If you cannot tell that Modus Vivendi underwear from Greece has become a personal favorite of mine from our Facebook page, you must view our page. I am simply enthralled with the look, the styles, the website, and the fun that Modus Vivendi seems to project onto their clients.
The Modus Vivendi Jean Boxer style is a great pair of boxer briefs in a dark blue fabric that resembles denim. The boxer has leather look detailing along the front pouch area that is separated and held in place by a black cord with silver pieces on the end. There is also a leather look Modus Vivendi label on the back where the patch on regular blue jeans is located. This pair of underwear is listed as fetish wear on the Modus Vivendi website and is modeled after country style clothing.
The fabric consists of 95% Vicose (synonym for Rayon) and 5% Elastan and makes for a soft feel with perfect stretch and conforming abilities 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 X-Large was a nice fit based on European to American sizing, but not true to size as I am a true Large in undies (Size up, guys!). There really isn’t a waistband on these boxer briefs. The area around the waistband is a bit rigid and bunched up for my taste which led to a bit of uncomfortable feelings as I wore these. The way this boxer brief is sewn creates the exact look of blue jeans from the rear and from the front. The front appears to have pockets due to the way the stitching is sewn. The paneled construction creates a nice fit that contours to the body and provides a sleek look.
Upon first inspection, the boxer is more of a squarecut boxer rather than what one thinks of when you use the word boxer, the quality was good, the dark denim blue with black leather look trim is a excellent combination, the rear consists of a couple of separate panels 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 tightened and loosened to accommodate the package, or reveal it. To be honest, the way the underwear fit and created a silhouette reminded me of how some guys really fill up their jeans in the front and the back. I like the way the underwear is conforming and how it feels against my body as it moves with my movements. The way the rear is paneled together in pieces allows for definition and provided a nice look.
I wore this Modus Vivendi Jean Boxer from beginning of the day until around 11:30 that night. I began the day with my travelling to a local tourist town on Saturday morning for a weekend stay. I shopped, ate, walked the town, went out that night, and wore these undies the entire day. The boxer brief remained fairly comfortable the entire day. I say that because Modus Vivendi lists this as fetish wear and I probably should not have worn it the entire day and expect it to be comfortable the whole time. I found the waist to be a bit uncomfortable and rigid after awhile. However, I should have worn it tied loosely and slightly open like shown on the website in the photograph Modus Vivendi has up for your viewing.
Overall, this was a nice pair of underwear. I liked the look of the rear, the way the dark denim looked, the leather look enhancements, the feel of the fabric, the overall look of the boxer brief, the conforming nature of the pouch, and the contrasting black lace-up cord. 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. Now, I will have to report back with the fetish side of things….
PROS
- Fit
- Fabric
- Construction
- Look/Styling
CONS
- Price (however, they are specialty undies)
- May have to hand wash them
- Not for daily wear
