October 6th is the anniversary of UNB. It’s hard to believe that I have been doing this for 11 years! Back in 2008, I started this journey and figured it would last a few months. You know, share my love of underwear and swim briefs and move on to something else.

It’s been such a fantastic ride over the last 11 years. There have been ups and downs along the way. Like in life, the ups far outweigh the downs. The ups have been getting to know the men’s underwear industry. I have made some fantastic friends who run brands, sell underwear, and read the blog. This is a close community that is very friendly and amazing.

The biggest downside is all the brands that have gone out of business. I go through the blog, sometimes looking for a Throwback Thursday, and remember all the incredible brands that have gone out of business. We have covered thousands of underwear brands.

This year we launched the UNB Store. This is the biggest thing to happen since I began the blog. Some of you may wonder what prompted this addition. I have been asked by brands for years when I was starting my store. As far back as 2010, people were asking about my ambitions. I never really wanted to open a store. Some things changed in my personal and professional life, and I decided to go for it. It was an “offer I couldn’t refuse.”

I do have plans for the stores and look forward to seeing it grow. It’s a rewarding and interesting experience now being on this side. I worked for Erogenos for a few years in the early 2010s and got some inside knowledge on how a store works. If you need undies, check us out!

Where are we going in the future? That’s an excellent question. I have a few things in the works, but nothing I can reveal right now, but if they pay off, they will be amazing. Things are always changing, and new ideas come to me all the time. Some things work, and others do not work.

Thanks for all of you who have been with UNB and me over the 11 years and those who joined along the way. Feel free to email me at any time to chat about undies, get recommendations, and more. Here’s to 11 more years!

Candyman has always produced super fun costumes. Their very first collection featured them and each year they come out with more. They are over the top and just fun! Some of these you can wear out and others are more for bedroom entertainment.

The costumes have some of the ones you would expect to have such as policeman, pilot, pirate, devil, cowboy, and more. The most recent ones have been more on the skimpy side featuring thongs and jocks. The original ones has more boxer briefs and briefs.

If you love one of the costumes it’s time to buy it now, several of them will not be made any more, some like the Mechanic and Racer driver are gone! Those were super popular to wear out because it was a sheer body suit with just the right things covered up.

If you are bold enough to wear them out or just at home for someone special. Check out all the Candyman Costumes at the UNB Store.

New XXX H Collection is out from Go Softwear. This is a collection of fun colored mesh, and it is paired with black fabric. There are a few things, but in this post, I’m focusing on the spandex/singlets. 

There are two new singlets XXX H Plunge Singlet and the XXX H Singlet. The XXX H Singlet is one made entirely of the mesh. “Leave just enough to the imagination in this newest Fall design by GO SOFTWEAR! The XXX ‘H’ Plunge singlet, part of our provocative HARD CORE Label, is constructed entirely in body-hugging see-through mesh fabric. This garment features a deep scoop front extending down to the pouch along with Y-back design. The one-piece measures 26 inches from center back to bottom with a 6 inch outer side seam”

The XXX H Singlet is a regular cut singlet with mesh around the legs, and on one side, mesh goes all the way up. It’s for those who don’t want to dare to bare of the XXX H Plunge singlet. “You singlet fans will appreciate this up-to-date design by GO SOFWEAR, part of our provocative HARD CORE Label. The XXX ‘H’ singlet is constructed from soft cotton/lycra fabric with contrast see-through mesh panels to outline your best attributes. This one-piece also features spacious arm openings and a semi-scoop neck for an overall athletic look.”

Lastly is the XXX H Tights. This is similar to the singlet with the mesh, but it’s on one sides. “Fashion your tights in this newest creation by GO SOFTWEAR, part of our provocative HARD CORE Label. The XXX ‘H’ tights are comfy and flexible to your every move, due in part to the cotton/lycra fabric that feels great next to your skin. This garment also features an inner drawcord waist for easy adjustment along with contrast mesh side panels for a hint of color and fashion. Create a look that is uniquely yours when pairing these tights with our XXX harness or shimmel.”

ORIGINAL BIKE #10 JOCKSTRAPS BY MEYER NOW IN BLUE, SCARLET AND GOLD!

We’ve been bugging Meyer to bring these in for years and our persistence has paid off! It’s the Bike #10 Jockstraps (by Meyer) now in Bike’s original colors: royal-blue, scarlet and gold as well as the original white and black.

The Bike #10 Jockstrap is back but under another brand – it’s the Meyer Original Bike #10 jockstrap.

In case you don’t know, here’s the scoop: Meyer was the licensed distributor for Bike in Europe and dealt with the Bike Factory directly, so when Bike stopped producing their jockstraps, Meyer approached the Bike factory to start producing the original Bike jockstraps for them using the exact same fabric, sizing and specs – the only thing different is the brand name. Size, style, fit, and even the label are identical except where BIKE was is now a MM (for Meyer Marketing).

Seriously, it doesn’t get better than this. This is the classic sports jock that started it all and THE jock to have for all your sports fetish play. It’s the epitome of masculinity with it’s full 3 inch wide waistband, moisture wicking contoured pouch and sturdy leg straps to keep everything in place.

They’re true sports jocks, so for sports get them size-as to give you the support you need but to wear for any other reason and for longer periods of time, consider going up a size.

This week the pair for $12 Tuesday is the Baksit Wild Stripes boxer brief. This pair is onsale for just one day! Today! It goes off sale at Midnight.

We bet you’ve got a bit of a wild side. Almost everyone does. So, strip down and show off your wild side in our WildStripes collection. Baskit set a fun multi-colored stripe pattern on unbleached premium cotton and spun in a little elastane to give it some stretch for superior fit and feel.

Do you love bright colors and bikinis? If you said yes to both of these the new N2N Bodywear Air Basic Bikini is for you! N2N Bodywear made this is four amazing pops of color! And we all know N2N isn’t afraid of color.

The AIR BASIC BIKINI has returned in all it’s glory in an array of bright colors to welcome beautiful autumn! The line has a full pouch and full booty coverage. Made with a 60% Rayon 32% Polyester 8% Spandex fabric blend.

The four colors of the new line are Red, Royal, Orange, and Kelly. Four amazing primary colors that will be a great addition to your underwear drawer. My personal opinion is that you should wear underwear in a bright color to enhance your mood. If these don’t do it then nothing will.

I would suggest getting every color you want when you order. Like many of the lines that they have released, they sell out quick. So, don’t waste time and order soon and order often.

Check out all the new lines before they sell out!

PAIR: N2N Bodywear Air Basic Bikini
COLORS: Red, Royal, Orange, or Kelly
FABRIC: 60% Rayon 32% Polyester 8% Spandex

If you have wanted to get some new Candyman, you’re in luck! They just released their newest line for Fall. It’s everything you would expect from Candyman lace, thongs and new costumes! They continue their mixing of masc/fem line

I think Candyman definitely fills a space in men’s underwear. There are a lot of guys who love the mix of the masc/fem. I am one of those guys, thought I don’t own a lot, I do see the draw to these. Other guys I know have loved the preview I gave them.

If you aren’t about lace and skimpy cuts, there are also some new costumes. The three are Pirate, Cowboy, and Police. These three seem to be the most popular of the costumes. One of the first they ever created was the cowboy.

Here are some lifestyle pics of the collection. We will give you more in-depth view of the collection over the next week or so. View the entire Candyman Collection at the UNB Store.

McKILLOP XXL-BULGE ENVY SPORT JOCK – NEW COLORS ARE HERE!

Although our HUGE-ly popular attention getting McKillop Max Bulge Jockstraps fit most guys, we had a few customers tell us they couldn’t fit their LARGER than life junk in them. So we tasked McKillop to make us a custom jock brief for the really BIG guys. The XXL-Bulge Envy Sport Jock was the answer. Joining the original black and white are two new colors – blue and red.

Quite simply, XXL-Bulge Envy is a very see-through sheer mesh jock brief that’s all about the bulge. It has a very large, ergonomically designed pouch that’s cut short at the base of the 3D pouch to help lift your boys up and out. Despite that villain called gravity trying it’s best to keep your hulking monster down, Envy puts up a pretty damn good fight against it. Look no further than our models Markus Kage and Caleb King for proof it works – even with their rather large endowments they fit in easily and with room to grow!

The back, of course, is like a brief with a cutout to frame your best assets.

McKILLOP MAX BULGE LONG JOHNS – WITH INCLUDED COCKRING – THEY’RE BACK!

Summer has said farewell, Fall is here and Winter is unfortunately heading our way – but things have never been hotter with the return of our sexy and completely outrageous McKillop Max Bulge Long Johns. To be honest, you can wear them as long johns but also as lounge pants. It’s really up to you but first let’s talk about the main event… the pouch:

Sure, it’s all about the bulge – but McKillop is taking bulging to the extreme. With a secret weapon, well, two to be exact to ensure you’re bulging sky high! First in Max Bulge’s arsenal is a front pouch panel that’s super contoured and cut high to sit up under your balls. Second, a double-wide elasticated fabric cock ring is included with every pair of long johns for extra lift and to potentially restrict some blood-flow. The result: your manhood is hoisted up and put out there on display for all to see, as it should.

The long johns are made with a second-skin Modal fabric that’s not only super soft and stretchy but thin enough to wear under your pants or pair of jeans. It’s an extra layer of warmth while outside in the cold with the added bonus of creating a prominent bulge that will get you noticed, big time. Once you get home, strip off those jeans and just hang out on the couch in your bulging johns – they’re that comfortable. Just be warned: alone or with someone else you’ll be hard pressed not to give those bulges the attention they’re just begging for.

Max Bulge Long Johns are available in five colors, black, navy-blue, red, royal-blue and white and all come with McKillop’s signature 1.5″ wide elasticated fabric cockring.

By the way, in case you’re in a situation where you don’t want the extreme bulge effect, simply wear them without the included cock ring and they’ll still look amazing.
