GEAR UP AT JOCKSTRAP CENTRAL – RECENT ADDITIONS
Looking for some hot sexy new gear, than look no further than our roster of sports fetish, fetish and full-frontal jockstraps and underwear that’s we’ve been introducing over the past month and a half. We’ve got everything from our full-frontal (and exclusive) Raw Studio Force-1 Bulge Boosters to Nasty Pig’s 2017 Union Suits (yes, we still have a few left).
Last week we introduced Speed Demon, a collection of jockstraps and socks from Nasty Pig – they’ve been flying off the shelves, and we are out of large and xlarge of the grey jockstraps, but for now, we have all sizes in both red or black and all colors available in the matching socks.
The previous week we introduced Cellblock 13’s modern take on a swimmer jock with a stunning jock brief, all part of the Ward13 Collection. Although we’re now sold out of the army-green jock brief in medium and xlarge, we still have all sizes available for the army-green, red and blue jockstraps and all sizes available of the red and blue jock briefs.
The week before that, we introduced some sexy new Male Power gear including a crazy-hot skin-tight chaps short with a removable inner pouch so you can rip-it off and go full-frontal. Even better – pick one up and you’ll qualify for the Male Power freebie offer above.
Finally, we’re nearing the end: We’re down to single digit quantities of our Nasty Pig Union Suits, despite the miraculous restock we received on the grey ones last week. We are completely out of xlarge in black and as of the writing of this email, we still have at least a few of each size in the red and, new for 2017, grey union suits. This will be it until next year assuming Nasty Pig brings them back next fall.

This is a throwback Thursday featuring the 2(X)ist Miltary Brief. This is one we reviewed on this site. It was from October 2010. When the site was just 2! We hopefully will have more 2(X)ist reviews soon!
It’s been a hot minute since we had a Jockstrap Wednesday. I wanted to do something classic with a twist of fetish. The pair I chose is the GO Softwear Noir Jockstrap. I think a solid black jock is super hot! This one has a leather-like look. Giving it a more than a hint of fetish. I think more guys are allowing themselves to give in to the dark side of undies!
I have a few pieces of leather that I own. The downside of leather is the care and it’s not a forgiving fabric in underwear. This pair has a leather looking pouch. Without all the downsides of leather. It’s easier to take care of and will conform to fit your body. Not to mention this is one sexy jock. The classics also have a special place in my heart.
This jock can be worn for a regular day at work, Night on the town or just hanging out. It’s not one I would probably see at the gym. Although with some of our awesome readers, some of you would rock this at the gym. I said that guys are embracing the dark side of undies. Guys are no longer being shy about fetishwear. It’s becoming more accepted. Over the last 9 years, we have gone from classic and boxer briefs to men’s underwear in made in every fabric.
This pair has 2” waist elastic along with 1” leg straps. Not quite the classic three-inch waistband but still hot. Made in the USA out of 100% vinyl. It retails for $20 at the Go Softwear site. So, get your wild side tamed in this super fun jock!
BRAND: Go Softwear
PAIR: NOIR Jockstrap
COLORS: Black
FABRIC: 100% vinyl
SIZES: Small – X-Large
COST: $20.00
D.HEDRAL has its customers dripping in gold by giving its best-selling Gigolo Joe II briefs the Midas touch for autumn 2017!
The brand’s iconic Gigolo Joe II style with a Y on the rear, designed to improve fit and emphasise the natural shape of the wearer’s body, gets a super-luxe makeover with the addition of metallic gold tape.
Andrew Christian made the new Massive Luxe Brief in Gunmetal. In sexy, sleek silver, each pair also features our Signature Slimming Waistband with MASSIVE Lettering. And you are massive. And like all of your other favorite AC pairs, each one features our uniquely designed anatomically correct pouch, that helps your package fall in naturally.
2EROS is known for making amazing looking underwear that is made for an active guy. The newest line released is the X-Series Commando. It is available in a Brief, Jock, Leggings and a Trunk. Each pair has an awesome 2EROS branded waistband.
This is what 2EROS said about the new line:
Take control with the X-Series Commando! It is made from a premium Lenzing Modal and polyester blend, which offers the luxurious softness and comfortability of modal and the durability of polyester. It is slim fitted to show off assets and silhouette. It features a single layered pouch to give you natural enhanced lift. It is combined with the 2EROS CURV Technology to contour, shape and support your assets as well as creating a ‘contact-less’ support to reduce chaffing and sweating.
Being released this week on the 2EROS site, and followed by your favorite retailer. Make sure you check out this amazing new line from 2EROS.
Looking to get a great pair of underwear? The newest line from Baskit is X Collection. Baskit says this about the new line. “We’ve taken a classic brief and given it a new purpose. X marks the spot where your best assets are front and center. Leading you on your journey forward in life. Plenty of comfort, style and support. That’s our X Collection brief.” This pair is just on sale for today until midnight. Also, check out the “$10 Last Call” section for some great deals.
I loved going to Vegas and meeting with Good Boy Gone Bad. One reason was their model. No, it’s not because he is an adult film actor, but their model Marko Lebeau was one of the nicest guys I would meet. The first time I met he spoke mainly French (being from Montreal), but as the years went by we got to talk more. This was from August 2013.
Are you ready for Halloween? Maybe you are the kind that likes spooky costumes. Or, maybe you want to wear something super sexy? If you like the later, boy are you in luck. Candyman just released a few new costumes! They have always been the leader in super sexy costume underwear. Do you remember the cowboy or policeman? They were super fun!
S&M Costume – Did you see 50 Shades of Grey and want to live out a fantasy. Or, do you have dominant tendencies? Grab a costume that releases the inner dom to wear in with your significant other. Who are we to say, wear it out one night as well! Just be prepared for looks and grabs throughout the night. Retails – $29.48 at Candyman Fashion.
Pirate Costume – Pirates are always popular at Halloween. This is no Pirate of the Caribean. It’s more Pirate of your fantasy Black Sails. Yes, it comes with everything you see! The headband, eye patch and more. Dive into Halloween in this super fun Pirate costume. – $41.48 at Candyman Fashion
Unicorn Costume – Unicorns are HUGE right now. Candyman has come out with a more novelty pair for the unicorn. Sorry, there is no head mane or horn on your head. The Unicorn comes in a thong and boxer brief. The horn is on the pouch of each style. Each style has a rainbow lace up in the back. Pair that with lace and you get a very interesting pair indeed. Thong retails for $20.48 at Candyman Fashion. The Boxer Brief retails for $24.48 at Candymanfashion
Sheep Costume – If Little Bo Peep lost here sheep you can find it now! This looks more like the Big Bad Wolf to me but the ears are different. Made out of a plaid, flannel looking shirt with a hood and ears. Paired with a denim look, pair of briefs. Now, this is one pair you could definitely wear out on the town. $32.48 at CandymanFashion
Pilot Costume – They have had a pilot costume before. It was a bit more conservative. Made out of a tie and boxer briefs. This time you can fly the friendly skies with a pilot in a thong. Complete with wings, hat and rank insignia. The tie and thong are one in this version. $41.48 at Candymanfashion
Bullfighter Costume – OLE! Have you ever wanted to fight a bull? What about a bull in the bedroom! Candyman is mixing lace and masculinity with this collection big time. This costume has a lace pair of underwear made to look like bullfighter pants. The hat and shoulder pads are included. $41.48 at Candyman Fashion
Vampire Costume – The Pilot isn’t the only one getting a 2.0 refresh. The Vampire has a new design as well. This is very much the “Interview with a Vampire” type of feel. At least to me it does. It has a high color and a mini cape. The briefs have red lace over a black body with a cutout/lace up in the back. $27.48 at Candyman Fashion
Firefighter Costume – It’s time to rescue someone with this Firefighter costume! Bust down the door and rescue the trapped person. Made with a lace brief and safety stripe on the front. The neckband is another safety reflector and topped with a hat! It’s not standard issue uniform. $37.48 at Candyman Fashion
These are the new ones. There are some of your favorites still there! But enjoy and have fun this Halloween.
We are changing things up here. We want you guys to help us pick underwear to review. This is not limited to the brands we work with. Have you ever wanted to try a Japanese line? Or maybe a fetish pair from Germany? Maybe a swim brief from Australia? Now is the time for you to help us out! We want to know what you guys want to see reviewed.
We are giving this power to our Patreons above a $5 a month donation. Why are we doing this? Let’s face it underwear is expensive, especially when you are getting pairs from overseas. You don’t want to invest in exchange rates and international shipping only to get a pair you hate. If it’s out of the US you can get free shipping and a good sale. It’s not as bad.
How do you take part in the community? Well, click the button at the bottom of this post to join our Patreon. We want to do a lot of things but we need your help! Currently, we have a great group of guys in our Patreon who have been there for a while. There is a private community we talk in and share topics for posts and even give away underwear. Yes, I give our Patreon members goodies from the UNB Closet.
Other things we want to do is increase our video production, do more exclusive shoots and more! We figure to do what we want, we would need $1,000 to $2,000 a month to accomplish all this. If you find value in what we do and want to see us grow and do bigger things. Donate as little as $1 a month but the more you donate the bigger the rewards.
If you have any questions send us an email. We will answer any question you have! (or use this link: https://www.patreon.com/unbblog)
This picture is done by Seven Continents Photography from our one and only Valentine’s Guide that was shot in January 2013. This is David in Gregg Homme! Which is the perfect picture for Valentine’s Day! We were supposed to have two models but we had to make do with just one!
Garçon Model takes you to a galaxy far far away. Well not exactly but they have released a new line called Galaxy. It’s a limited edition line that has two out of this world prints. That means if you want these pairs you better move fast. Like most limited edition they will be gone before you know it.
The prints are super fun and bright. The colors are on a black background and have a very much 80’s feel to me. Which is a good thing. I love to see brands making fun and bright undies. And as we have seen with the last collection Garçon Model is good at that. If you like these go check them out. Only for a limited time at the Garçon Model Site.
Love the look of classic underwear but want the modern day fit? The new Throwback line from C-IN2 is one to check out.
Over this month we will bring you a variety of pics over the last 9 years of UNB. Our shoots have matured and we have learned a lot doing them. A lot of these pictures are personal favorites and some have stories behind them. This was a shoot we did in Birmingham in December of 2012. I had oral surgery the day before and couldn’t eat. But it was the first time we shot David and Josh. This is one of my favorite pics of the day. David wearing N2N Air trunk.
I hope you enjoy this look back at UNB and some of the behind the scenes stories we will tell.
This is a picture we did with Ignacio Rivera Jr. featuring Josh in Clever. This was the second shoot we did with josh. We did three total over the years with him!
Camo is back at Andrew Christian! This time it’s in leggings! Perfect for the upcoming winter. You can wear them as long johns, to work out, run and more. Also available in other underwear styles.
UNB is 9 Today! It’s been a roller coaster ride over the past nine years. There have been ups and downs, like most things in life. But, I tend to remember the good things that have happened. UNB was formed a little before now, but it wasn’t UNB. I had a personal blog that I posted underwear stuff on. Then on October 5th, 2008 I registered the domain! And the rest is history!
Here are some things that have been the highlights of UNB
- Friends – Have made so many friends in the men’s underwear industry. They range from brands, retailers, readers and current/former staff members. I have surrounded myself with good people, and I hope it shows. The men’s underwear industry is an amazing group of people.
- Straight guys – When I launched UNB 9 years ago I kept things very middle of the road. I always hoped that straight guys would read the blog and fall in love with undies as I had so many years ago. Well, not only did this happen but it happened way bigger than I thought it would. Our staff has a majority of straight guys. Our past asst. editor and also our current one is straight (the current is ThongedGinger).
- Travel/Las Vegas – I love to travel, and since 2010 I have fallen in love and gotten to know Las Vegas. The current situation makes me very sad because I know the area very well. My thoughts go out to the family of those killed an injured. I won’t get political, but if you’re on my personal Facebook you know… I also have traveled to Los Angeles and other places to meet with brands and men’s underwear people.
- Steve Grand – Our interview with him has been the biggest post we have ever done. It got picked up by so many media outlets because he addressed the swim briefs directly. We haven’t had much follow up with him since the interview. We intended to show a public figure not afraid to wear them and get other guys to wear them. I don’t think he or we thought it would get so big. We still love Steve and hope he’ll do a follow-up interview with us. Right after the interview, he wanted to be known for talent and not swim briefs. Now he’s embraced it and still looks awesome in a swim brief.
- Underwear/Swimwear – being exposed to so many underwear companies I would never have known about if I didn’t run an underwear blog. This includes brands seeking us out and us working with them. There is such innovation in the market, and each year it keeps getting more creative.
- UNB Guys – Thanks to all the current and former UNB guys. We have had so many guys over the years. They all made UNB what it is today. Each of them left an impact on the site and me. Many of the former guys I”m still in touch with and still friends with. I hope we grow this family more!
- Readers – All this would be nothing if it wasn’t for our steady readers. We have improved over the years and grown. If you look at our archives, you will see. Many of you have been with us since the beginning. The best one was the ThongedGinger read UNB in High School! He still gives me grief about some of the mess ups in the early days! I hope you guys keep reading and supporting us. I have no plans of stopping UNB anytime soon. We have been offered to be bought out, but I have always turned them down due to the love I have for the industry. Sometimes I get burned out, but I come back stronger than ever.
Thanks to everyone who has contributed to UNB. This includes brands, retailers, staff, readers and the loved ones who always humor our underwear love! Here’s to 9 more years.
We all love to win undies. And I will say I would love to win some Cocksox. This month they are having #soxtober! S0, how do you win?
