Tim, Andy, and Erik are on the show to talk about how GQ/Men’s health magazines always include super basic undies in their top 10 lists for underwear. We think they are playing it too safe and anytime you get underwear in anything larger than a 3 pack you’re in trouble. 

We also are starting the UNB Concierge service where you tell us what you are after and we’ll find you underwear that matches your needs. We are sure between the three of use we can find what you love. 

Here is a link to the Bodysuit from Underwear I was talking about – https://www.underwearnewsbriefs.com/2014/05/style-brief-extreme-master-bodysuit-from-undergear/ I forgot I wrote it up on UNB and it was 2014 not the early 2000’s. 

Looking for new Lingerie here is the German company that Tim was talking about.  https://www.spitzenjunge.de

We really need to build a sense of community in the world of men’s underwear. It doesn’t matter if you’re gay, straight, bi, non-bianry, or anything else you call yourself. I was thinking about what can I do to foster a greater sense of community. Then it hit me, an underwear list on Twitter to show guys who love undies!

Why did I start this? Well, that’s a great question. I was going through my feed and wanted to see undies guys. What I saw was a lot of porn (hey no judgments on porn, every guy looks at it), but I wanted to interact with undies lovers. Having to scroll through everything was frustrating. Then I came up with the list idea. We have some guys on it now and want to add a lot more.

Why did I choose Twitter? Twitter is the only social media site that you can really create lists and share them with others.

What rules do you have for the list? Here are the qualifications:

  1. You have to love underwear
  2. You post about underwear, specifically pics of yourself in undies (but not mandatory)
  3. You don’t repost a lot of porn (again, this is undies not porn)
  4. Sexual orientaztion doesn’t matter
  5. You want to find more undies guys and have great conversations

Note, that this won’t filter out all dick pics. Guys may show theirs off in undies and out of undies. I won’t penalize guys showing themselves off. It won’t be porn but it will be self pics of guys.

How do I join the list? You go to my Twitter profile twitter.com/unbtim. Send me a reply or DM to be considered to be added.

How do I view this list – Go to the Undies Guys List

Any questions email me or DM me.

I hope you listen to the solo podcast I will be releasing (or released depending on when I post this) about the show I attended in early August. It was a very interesting experience because I thought the show would be awesome when I booked the trip in early May. After all, we’d be in the middle of hot girl summer, vaccinations rolled out, and normalcy should be coming back to us. Enter Delta that wiped that all out… There were only a few bands I needed to see in Vegas and one in a suite. 

Enough of the background that you’ve heard before, but why are the shows really not attracting men’s underwear brands. 

Internet/Video 

Even before the pandemic, brands were moving to more video and internet presentations. You can reach way more people and customers than just those who go to a trade show. Not all buyers have the money or time to trek to Vegas for the shows. 

Pandemic 

The pandemic fucked everything up. Everyone was affected by this, and just when you think rounded the corner, something else pops up its ugly head, like Delta. Some of the brands and the buyers are not comfortable traveling. International brands may not be allowed in the US or have even received a vaccination. Why take unnecessary chances.

Cost for Brands

If you are a buyer, you just have the cost of airfare, hotel, and food. There is no cost if you are approved to attend the show. If you are a brand, there is the cost of the booth. The last time I checked, it was 7000-10000 for a 10×10 booth. That doesn’t’ include the new gear to show off and booth design. To break even, you would need to sell that and hopefully more and gain some new customers. This show in Aug 2021, I doubt you would get many new customers to cause unless you needed to go; I don’t see many people coming just cause they have nothing to do. 

Treatment of brands by the show

I forget the year; I think it was 2016 when the underwear brands were put in the back corner in an area that wasn’t even on the show map. This was insane, and many of the brands said their customers just got fed up trying to find them and gave up and never met to buy new collections. Also, they have limited models and what they can wear. This led many brands to go to suites to show off their new lines without limitations. This brought a new problem, and it goes against the rules of the show and the hotel. You can get kicked out, and you are out of luck. 

Finding a new community

The one thing I loved about going to the shows in the heyday was the community. The entire world of men’s underwear is a super happy place. It was great to get face time with brands and really develop relationships that aren’t just online or behind email. This is one reason I created the podcast and relaunched it. I want you guys to see the industry and hear from the brands. I have never regretted creating UNB or the UNB store. It makes me happy to do these things! Granted, opening a store, there is a lot more to learn than just doing a blog. However, it’s skills that I’m willing to learn to do what I love. 

I’m curious, how do you guys see that we can expand the community for underwear online? We all know Facebook and IG aren’t the places to build a community cause so many people and brands get kicked off the platforms every day. This is a question I have been pondering for years with no clear solution. We need something for guys to connect across all walks of like, every sexual orientation, everybody type that’s not rooted in “let’s fuck now.” (hey, we are all adults if ya want to fuck go for it, but I have found so many underwear guys are just genuine guys).   I credit UNB for some of the amazing friendships I have now. Leave a comment, email,  or DM me on any social media.

Military uniform becomes really hot! Khaki green cargo pants adapt their image just from field army pants but obtain / features. Two-sides zipper provides easy access to one’s front or backside, diversifying. Slits on the backside and knees are here for the comfortable wearing and cooling effect. Please note that the item is for party use, not hard sportswear. Check out all the Enforcer line at the Maskulo site.

A collection of Shorts, Tanks and Sweatpants designed to seamlessly mix and match. You have loved our BOLT and TRACK Shorts for years, so now we give them to you in luxury cotton stretch fabrication. Arguably most exciting of all is the return of the RIDER SWEATPANT, our best seller that you’ve been asking for with its unbeatable slim fit, form enhancing cut. You’ll want to wear them day and night!

We’ve done all the heavy lifting, crafting these must-haves for you. All you have to do is arm yourself with these essentials and focus on getting on with life!

Tim is on location in Vegas going over his adventure at Project/Magic. Hear all about the show and lack of show! Some of his crazy adventures cause he lives in interesting times. And a brief on the future of the shows. It’s a solo show around 20 minutes. Recorded on Monday, Aug 9th, and Friday, Aug 13.

BRUTO PRIDE COLLECTION: JOCKS, BRIEFS, SWIMWEAR AND TANKS TOPS

Bruto (by Estevez) has been always been about being out and proud and embracing who you are whether you’re a bear, cub, otter, daddy, wolf or admirer. With this new collection, however, they’re taking Out and Proud literally and have created one of the most spectacular Pride collections we’ve seen. A collection that not only includes jockstraps but also briefs, tank tops and some stunning Swim Briefs. It’s all about Rainbows, Stars, Dragicorns and being Super Proud and of course, sexy as fuck.

The collection is also designed to mix and match so all the tops looks great with all the bottoms (no sexual innuendo intended for a change!)

It’s also all made with a super fast dry fabric that’s looks great, is super-soft and feels phenomenal against your boys and body. Plus, the colors are vibrant and stay that way due to a sublimation printing process. They also don’t fade or crack.

Pride is every day and for everyone. As with all Bruto jocks and gear, the Pride Collection is all available in sizes small all the way up to XXlarge (for jocks, underwear and swimwear it should fit guys with waist sizes 28 inches all the way up to 46 inches!)

Jocks and Briefs:

The Bruto SuperProud Jocks and Briefs in horizontal stripes the colors of the rainbow flag with large SUPERPROUD front and center of the white waistband. There’s also Bruto’s totaly fabulous Dragicorns Jocks and Briefs with their unique, fabulous and totally gay fabric with repeating dragicorns (unicorns in drag!), rainbows, stars and the word PROUD all in rainbow colors of course!

Tank Tops:

The Bruto SuperProud Dragicorn Tank Top has a large dragicorn along with rainbow stripes and large SUPERPROUD across it. In back, another large SUPERPROUD plus a large rainbow stripe runs vertically down the tank top.

The Bruto Pride Stars Tank Top has a series of rainbow shooting stars on a white background both front and back.

The Bruto Always Proud Tank Top has a large repeating ALWAYS PROUD along with small rainbow colored stars on a white background. In back, a random pattern of small rainbow colored stars on a white background.


As always, Bruto is available in North America exclusively at Jockstrap Central.

Be sure to head to our website to see our model Matty showing off all the new Bruto gear (we may have taken some liberties and included some full-frontal shots!). We’ve also included a few photos of Bruto’s sexy Colombian model in the gear just to show it on a completely different body type.

One of the newer questions is, what do you guys wear when working out? I was curious to see if you guys were wearing more spandex or it is still traditional. First up, we asked what you wear when you run. Most wear gym shorts or running shorts. However, a good number wear spandex runners or shorts. As a side note, I don’t know why I put singlets in this section other than I love them. Other than lifting, I don’t know when most guys would wear them.

Ok, you guys shocked me on this one. I knew for a fact that spandex runners would be up there for lifting. I wore them when I did lift (a long time ago) for extra support. But you guys wear the gym shorts by a super-wide margin. WOW, guys! That’s all I can say.

You boys love your gym shorts—again, another blowout when doing cardio. I personally think we need to make spandex more popular than it currently is with you guys. Maybe we need to do a spandex giveaway.

This wasn’t even close to anything other than gym shorts for Crossfit.

Yoga had more spandex than many of the other pairs. But again, almost 50% I gym shorts. Guys, I have my work cut out for me. Before the next survey, we need to spread the word on why you should wear runners or spandex shorts. I never guessed that you guys would be such hard-core gym shorts, guys.
