It’s Tuesday, that means it’s Baskit $12 Tuesday. I know not a lot of you guys wear boxers on a daily basis but some of you wear them around the house. This week the Active boxer is just $12, the perfect pair for a lazy and rainy Sunday when you don’t want to put on pants.
I am in the process of sorting through the responses and getting the results finalized. Some interesting things in this year’s survey. One that I think is fun to ask is “How many pairs of underwear are in your collection?” We are all curious if we have the right amount of underwear or not enough. I think I fall on the “NOT ENOUGH” end, even though I have more pairs than just about anyone I know.
The one number that surprised me was the 151+ category. I wasn’t expecting 21% of you guys to have big collections! Which is awesome, because I should know by now never to underestimate our readers. You guys are amazing. However, 50% of you guys have 21-70 pairs. Which I think is about average for underwear lovers.
I will say I love these results! Glad to see so many guys growing their collection. I hope UNB had something to do with it, exposing more guys to great undies. That includes thongs, bikinis and more! Underwear is for all guys and you guys sure are proving it!
I”m working on getting the rest of the results. I came down with bronchitis and now a cold! UGH but I have the easy results tabulated and going through the rest of them. Stay tuned, I wanted to get these first results out!
The 2EROS Pro Aktive line was released earlier this month. It’s a super fun new line and you guys should check out the entire line!
Have you taken our Swim Brief Challenge? If you have its something to celebrate! More of you guys seem to be taking the Challenge every year. We have created some graphics to share on social media when you take it. We did this because not everyone wants to post a swim brief pic on the web!
Download any or all of these graphics and share them as you take the challenge. Now go have fun in the sun!
Bikinis are one style you guys love. Who makes them better than Cocksox? We love their bikinis. We will have a more in depth on the UNB Reader survey this week. But check out all the styles of the CX01.
It’s about a week away from the official start of swimwear season in the states. That day is Memorial Day weekend. It’s the time we flock to the beach and go as bare as we dare. Some barer than others. This is the year to do it Aussie Style. Wear those swim briefs to the beach and own it. Gay, bi or straight it’s time we unite and bring it to the beaches in the states.
One brand we have really love is Sluggers. We interviewed them a few months ago, and they impressed me on their designs and philosophy in swimwear. The one I really love is the Banana DeeTees. Because they are fun, you can have your very own banana hammock. I would totally rock this and enjoy chatting with people about it!
You may be asking what DeeTees means? They say it mean’s Dick Togs. Which is Aussie slang for swimwear. This is one of the four styles that Sluggers make. They say these are great for the American market. But if you want more of an Aussie cut we suggest the Classics.
The Banana are my favorite of all of them. The bananas are on a navy background. Made out of a polyester and spandex makes for a stretchy fabric and a tighter fit – but still comfy. Swimwear should be tight. If it’s not it may come off while getting out of the water. Some of our readers wouldn’t mind that. Well, if you’re on a public beach that could be a problem.
If you are looking for something awesome, then you need to look no farther than Sluggers. They have some other great prints and solids as well. Make sure you go to the Sluggers site and see all the amazing pairs they currently offer! The Banana DeeTees retails for $36.53 at the Sluggers site
Clever Moda is known for their amazing color and prints. This year’s pairs are no different. You will see they continue the tradition of bright colors and prints that make you go WOW. See the entire collection at Clever Moda.

I wanted to do something special for a brand that has been around 20 years. I asked the real guys who love the brand to tell us why they love N2N Bodywear. We had a few answer and a few of our staff members.
“I love my N2N gear. Over the years I have bought many items. Not one or two, not ten or more, but dozens! My collection includes swimbriefs, jammers and running tights. What appeals to me about N2N gear is the styling, the fabrics and the colors. The styling is bold. The stretchy fabrics are really comfortable. The colors are loud. Not for the shy, but at the beach, gym or at home wearing N2N gear works for my lifestyle.” – @speedostudtx
“I’ve bought a range of different underwear from N2N. From briefs to tanga to jockstraps to g-stings. They’re all well made and fit well. I also enjoy that the brand also covers everything from the basics to the unusual. I always feel a bit sexier and naughtier when I’m wearing their stuff “ – @check_two
“N2NBodywear was the gateway to my Lycra and bulge fetish. I don’t remember how it started. Maybe with a catalog. But in 2006 I ordered a few swimsuits and a singlet. Pulling on that shiny smooth Lycra the first time was like finding a second skin . I’ve been a loyal customer for years, most of my swimsuits are N2N and I look forward to it every season.I just need them to make more of the Titan line!” – @sixfootfiveguy“
“The first thong I ever bought was a black mesh g-string from N2N. The person who sold it to me said it N2N underwear was both comfortable and affordable. Since that first g-string I have owned dozens of pairs of g-strings, thongs, bikinis and swimwear. I have owned every pair in their cotton line and the cotton thongs are daily wears for me.
Their gear’s fabric is usually thin, which not only makes it comfortable, but also shows off really well. I have a few N2N thongs that I love wearing to the beach and to the pool. I also have a pair of lounge pants that are very comfortable and leave little the imagination. So thank you N2N for making great fitting and fun underwear.” @bithongguy
“N2N has been one of my favorite brands since I first discovered it. I always thought of their products as something a jet-set millionaire playboy would wear. Additionally, N2N helped me get into thongs. I found, as a straight guy, the thongs from the Tropic Line so sexy that I just had to have one. It wasn’t my first thong, but it helped me to see the sex appeal that can only come from a thong. That alone makes the Tropic line my favorite N2N line over the years. You never forget your first pair you fall in love with.” @underweardude

Hashtag Hooker is a brand I found on all places, Facebook. It’s rare that I find new brands on there. Mostly it’s on Twitter and Instagram. However this brand came across my radar and I thought I would share. They have a super interesting name and we’ll go into that in a post soon!
I thought I would share the Johnny Jock with Chystals. They say “From our #HOOKER Gold line. Solid with accents of crystals strategically framing your “jewels” and “assets.” Crystals are hand-embellished on the waistband, around the front, back, and leg opening. Made with imported COOLMAX® nylon/lycra tricot knit jersey and features our signature two-tone #HOOKER logo elastic waistband”\
This pair is in white, black, and Pink (as shown). It also retails for $55 at the Hashtag Hooker site.
Bodyaware has been one of the leading companies in design for fun and fashion in men’s underwear since 1998. If you’re ready to step out of the board shorts and get some sun on your legs, Bodyaware has a new swim brief called the Bam Bam. I’m assuming the name comes from the leopard print. Or possibly a color the Flintstones might have fashioned. These swim briefs are available now to prepare for your summer fun. I have not worn this brand of swim briefs before, but I may have to try this pair.
The new Bam Bam swim brief comes in a white color with black and light blue leopard spots animal print. The front pouch has a soft structured seam down the front. It is lined on the inside with a brilliant contrast panel. while the back is full with a center seam. One of the unique features of this swim brief is the metallic silver rings on either side of the front pouch. To give you more of a nude look.
They are made of 85% nylon and 15% spandex to give you fitted feel but enough stretch for movement. With the majority of the material made of nylon the swim briefs are going to be quick drying. Which I think is essential for all swimwear. The 85% nylon should make you feel like you’re almost wearing nothing. Guys can wear these swim briefs to the beach, the pool, or lounging around at home in the back yard. Be brave this summer and break away from those board shorts and get some sun on your legs.
This pair of swim briefs is machine or hand wash which is key. Summer is too busy and doesn’t last long enough so I need to be able to machine wash. The Bam Bam swim briefs are definitely more revealing than board shorts, but it’s summer and hot be brave. As small as the swim briefs are and with the material type. It won’t take long for your swimwear to dry after you take a dip in the water.
If you are in the market for some new swimwear this summer, be confident and let your inner caveman out. With a pair of Bam Bam swim briefs. I haven’t tried these out yet, but I will probably get a pair. They are available now, so hurry before they run out. For more information or to order go to www.bodyaware.com.

COLORS: white with light blue leopard spots

Here’s a sneak peek of the UNB Swimwear Guide. These are some behind the scenes pic. We are working with Chandler again. We love working with him. He’s an awesome guy.
If you would have told me there would be a certain sector of guys who would go crazy over swim thongs. I would have thought you were crazy a few years ago. But over the last year, we have seen growth in the swim thong market. Not only from gay guys but straight guys. YES, straight guys are going suns out buns out for summer. We are reaching a point where underwear/swimwear is no longer gay. It’s for all guys.
Today we chose the JOR Sunny Swim thong. It’s going to be in our Swimwear Guide (we shot it yesterday) and available in solids and prints. One color it is available in is Fuchsia. I mean if you’re going to rock the thong why now announce it to everyone around! Say, you’re less included to shout it out they also have it in black and white. But really, wearing a thong on the beach will bring attention in the US.
JOR has been one of the companies that have embraced the swim thong. They have been making them in every collection for the last year or more. Each collection they seem to release more and more swim thongs. That means you guys are buying them and wearing them. I think we still have a ways to go to get more on the beach but hey, it’s a start.
If you want to try a swim thong. We think this pair will be an awesome first pair. It’s not too small or too big but just right. If you already wear a bikini why not take the next step and thong it on the beach or private pool! We say go for it and rock it proud
