First, congrats Nick on becoming the new Trophy boy for Andrew Christian. What made you enter the Trophy Boy Contest?

I decided to enter the Trophy Boy contest on a split decision. I saw a post about the contest on Instagram and thought to myself, “what could it hurt? If I lost, nothing changes, and there’s always a small chance I could win!”

Many times on model contests, so many people submit pictures and get lost in a sea of other models. When did you realize that you were seriously in the running to be the trophy boy?

I actually forgot about the contest after I submitted my photo and just assumed that I went unnoticed. Then a month later I received an email that told me that I made the top 50. At that moment I realized I might have a chance to change my life completely!

You were part of the final four guys. What was the best part about the final competition? What was the hardest thing about the competition?

The best part of the final competition was learning more about the business side of modeling. For a while I thought modeling only consist of taking good photos, but since entering the contest I realized it’s much larger than that. I learned that modeling isn’t just about the poses and the lighting, it’s about true confidence, hard work, marketing yourself, and being open to trying new things! The hardest thing about the competition was actually competing against all of these attractive guys. When all these guys are talented, good looking, and outgoing it can be hard to find a way to stand out from them. Everyone had what it took to win this competition, but the hardest part was showing people that I was different, that I was better.

Andrew Christian has some skimpy styles. Were you up for being photographed in thongs, jocks and mesh underwear?

Yes, Andrew Christian has some skimpy styles and I was totally down to be in (or out) of all of them. I was told one major piece of advice before I left for my first shoot in LA that stuck with me even to this day. I was told to always volunteer and not to be afraid to let your walls down.

What pair or pairs have been your favorite to shoot? And what is the wildest pair you have modeled for Andrew Christian?

My favorite pair to shoot in would have to be the BLOW line. I love the thick waist bands, and the mesh feels amazing! The wildest pair of underwear I’ve modeled for Andrew Christian would have to have been the singlet. When you think of singlet, you think of more coverage then a jock strap, but this singlet was basically a thong and a harness mixed!

Trying out for the Trophy Boy, you were obviously a fan of Andrew Christian underwear. Did you have a love of underwear in general?

I’ll be honest. I probably owned 10 good pairs of underwear before entering the contest. I never really got into underwear until I saw Andrew Christian’s line more in detail. When I tried on my first pair in the shoot, I fell in love with underwear. His underwear made me like underwear more and my body more!

Being an underwear blog we have to ask these two questions: What style makes up most of your underwear drawer? What is your favorite pair of Andrew Christian underwear?

Well since I model for Andrew Christian now, my underwear drawer is pretty equal when it comes to the style. But the AC team tends to love my ass showing, so Jock Straps seem to always show up the most! My favorite pair of Andrew Christian underwear would have to be my FUKR Slick brief. I just feel a sexy masculine vibe every time I slip into them.

Andrew Christian has some great models in their line up. Who are a few of the models you hope to work with in a video or photo shoot?

I love all of the models, everyone has been so welcoming and accepting! I cannot wait to work with all of them! But if I had to pick a few, I’m excited to work with in a shoot, it would have to be Topher and Arad!

Other than starting your career in modeling with Andrew Christian, what do you enjoy in your down time?

Lately my downtime has changed drastically. Before the contest in my downtime, I loved to work out and go out with friends. Now since the contest and winning, my downtown has changed to building. Building a career, building a new life, and building new relationships on the way!

What is one thing that may surprise our readers to know about you?

Something surprising that the readers don’t know about me… that’s a hard one seeing that I am pretty open. But if I had to say, it would probably be the fact that I actually get camera shy on videos. I still get nervous during shoots, even if I may look like someone who always knows what to say.

  • Briefs or boxer briefs? Briefs
  • Favorite workout undies (style)? Hands down the Vibe tagless briefs
  • City/Country you want to visit? Thailand
  • Jock or thong? Jock
  • Singlets? Yes or no? I’m down for anything!
  • Favorite Cheat food Ice Cream
  • Who is your biggest supporter? My boyfriend ☺
  • Swim brief or trunk? Swim brief
  • What are your date night undies? FUKR

  • Favorite Color? Green
  • Ever worn a swim brief in public? Yusssssss

Now that you are the Trophy Boy, when can we expect to see you in a new video/photo shoot?

Any moment now! If I had control over the content I would have been in 10 by now! But the massive video should be the first one! So keep updated!

If Andrew Christian does a second Sex=Power=Freedom. Would you participate?

When Andrew Christian Does another Sex=Power=Freedom book I will be first in line to participate! The book is a positive and strong message and I need to be a part of that inspiration!

What does being the Trophy Boy for Andrew Christian mean to you?

Being a Trophy Boy for Andrew Christian means the world to me. This title means change, movement, growth, and not just with the company, but internally with me. Having this title changed everything for me. It changed the way I viewed life, myself and the supportive community around me! A lot of people see a title, a contract, a pair of underwear, where I see the building blocks to a reality worth living. Being an AC Trophy Boy is the reason I smile when I wake up. It sounds sappy, but I now wake up every day realizing I did it. I worked hard for something I wanted and I achieved that goal, and that satisfaction keeps me smiling.

We asked you guys about thongs and a week ago we shared the overview of the results. Now we want to share what some of you guys said about your feelings for thongs. All this is information is without any identifiable information. So you may be quoted in this post!

We asked why you guys wear thong. You guys said: 

  • I think they give better support than a jock, good under compression shorts at the gym and sometimes for hot yoga, like having decent support with minimal coverage
  • Minimal material, great support, can make you feel sexy
  • Sometimes to be sexy, sometimes because I want to be bare-assed, and sometimes just ’cause I feel like it.
  • I like the support of pouch and knowing people don’t know I’m wearing them.
  • I think it is sexy and gives me an extra boost of confidence.
  • Less bulk under whatever I am wearing.
  • I think they are damn comfortable. I love them under jeans and khakis. I also feel sexy and yes, masculine too. I love the support of good thongs and how they really keep the boys secured.
  • I want to feel extra sexy.
  • no lines in back and shows off my bulge
  • Comfort. Also great under running tights.
  • just to change it up every now and then
  • Comfort! During hot weather, air flow. Amazing support. Maximum freedom of movement.
  • Feels great and sexy. Love the support it gives.
  • No “panty line,” the feel of “less,” & the comfort of the fabrics in the ones I own.
  • I find them extremely comfortable, the support is better than a jock, and they make me feel sexy and more confident.
  • I like the feeling of them—much more comfortable and less restricting than briefs and bikinis.
  • They make me feel sexy, and feel less constricted when wearing them under snug jeans
  • It’s exciting, different, a change from normal underwear. It’s sent, it’s something only.i know I’m wearing. It’s powerful. It’s comfortable and supportive.

For those who don’t like thongs, here are their reasons: 

  • Just don’t like them most of the time uncomfortable
  • They are uncomfortable and not always flattering
  • Don’t Care for the constant weggie
  • I have nothing against them, but i think briefs are so much sexier
  • I work in a factory, peer pressure
  • I find them slightly uncomfortable so they are distracting to wear.
  • I like them, fiancé thinks they’re “gay” she doesn’t like them but tolerates or ignores them

Last, we asked why you LOVE thongs. 

  • Best comfort and just fun to wear
  • Love the look and freedom
  • They’re very sexy. You feel it while wearing it. Makes you very aware of it
  • They’re sexy, comfortable, supportive. Gives a bit of a wild side. Keeps you cooler. Like how they look.
  • Love how they make me feel
  • They are some of the sexiest underwear a man can wear. They also provide support to a man who doesn’t like a lot of material under his clothes.
  • Same as the reason for wearing them. Plus I like knowing I am wearing something that not a lot of guys wear
  • Thongs are a hot option. The t strap might not the best choice for everyone, but I love them. They provide a provocative, sexy charge.
  • I love thongs because of how I look in them. They make me feel sexy when I wear them. I know there is a stigma attached to men that wear thongs but I do not care, they are comfortable and I am sure if men would give them a chance thongs would lose their stigma.
  • Like not being mainstream.

I love polls like this that shares our readers passions and interests. Also, those who don’t like a pair and why.

Do you want to celebrate equality? It doesn’t matter if you are gay, bi or straight. It matters that you want everyone to be equal. Andrew Christian has released a new Pride collection. It features more than just underwear. It has hats, backpack, shirts and more. But we will be focusing on the new brief and jock.

Andrew Christian said this about the new collection:

Celebrate equality with our sexy and cool Pride Stripe Brief. This limited edition pair has everything that you love about every Almost Naked pair we’ve made, and come in a fun rainbow color Pride Print. And because we know you feel as good as you look, they feature our Signature Andrew Christian slimming waistband. They just feel like you’re not wearing any underwear at all. Hang-free design with no hidden cups, straps or padding. Extra room in front, just where you need it. When you pull them on, your package falls naturally into the super soft snuggle pocket to create a truly enjoyable unique wearing experience. Virtually eliminates sticking, squashing, re-adjusting, sweating and chafing.
 The brief and Jock features the awesome Almost Naked pouch. It’s a personal favorite of many of us here at UNB. It’s an ergonomically designed pouch that fits guys of all sizes pretty darn well. It always ranks high in any post we do about pouches. Also, both pairs are made from the same rainbow stripe material. Match that with an Andrew Christian branded waistband. It’s a really great design. The rainbow print isn’t over the top and screams “gay.” Well, I don’t think so! But you can judge for yourself.
Find both pairs at the Andrew Christian site. Note they are limited edition and sizes may sell out!

There is a question that is on a lot of peoples mind in underwear/gear. I know you are thinking it too! It’s “Where is the spandex in the new N2N Bodywear?”  RIGHT?! I know you guys were thinking it. I am here to answer that very question! Sorry couldn’t resist the opening. If you did ask that (which I did after the initial release) more is coming this year!

N2N just dropped the Ultra Skins 2.0 collection. It’s available in a runner and singlet. I, as I have mentioned before, am a big singlet fan. I have prob 10 of them from N2N! Some of the best on the market. They are the right amount of coverage and sex appeal. The Ultra Skins is a solid body with two different colors on the sides.

There are two styles in the Ultra Skins 2.0 collection. The runner and singlet. The runner is one I think you could wear to the gym or running. There are a few runners from N2N that were just for private use rather than public wearing. However, that hasn’t stopped a few readers from wearing them to the gym or out.

The singlet is a lower cut singlet. One of the styles that N2N is known for over the years. Low cut comes down to the hips and has less coverage in front. N2N makes both high and low cut. Would you wear it to the gym? I honestly don’t know. I have many years ago and wore a shirt over it.

There are three colors that both pairs come in. The colors are white, grey and black. The white has blue accents. The grey has red accents. Lastly, the black has white/grey accenting colors. Each have the same pattern of colors. It’s a pretty cool design. I personally love the white/blue the best. Something about it just pops to me.

If you love these go to N2N Bodywear and find them!

BRAND: N2N Bodywear
PAIR: Ultra Skins 2.0 Runner and Singlet
COLORS:  Black, Grey, or white
FABRIC: 83% nylon 17% spandex
SIZES: X-small – X-Large

The first of many new lines by Modus Vivendi this season is the Camo Line which comprises underwear in four styles (low cut briefs, briefs, bottomless briefs and boxers), tank tops and two styles of pants (tapered sweatpants and bermuda style shorts). All of them are available in two geometric camouflage prints: khaki and blue. The line is a fresh take on a very popular trend this season with which Modus Vivendi invites you to find your inner marine or navy seal and be a tower of strength!

The design as well as the campaign that you are about to see is inspired by one of Christos Bibitsos’ all time favourite films, Querelle, by Reiner Werner Fassbinder. The campaign is photographed in Madrid by the talented fashion photographer Joan Crisol. Model Javier F.A. takes on the role of the young sailor to present the new styles in settings and light with clear references to the 1982 drama.

Junk UnderJeans was the big winner at the UNB Reader Awards. They are a brand I spend a lot of time with at Magic/Project in Vegas. They are doing some great things in underwear. They started about the same time UNB did and have grown over the last few years. They have matured and come into their own. I have a feeling we will see a lot more of them on the market.

Congrats! You guys won 3 awards in the UNB Reader awards (Best Trunk, Best Boxer Brief and Best Swimwear). Why do you think your boxer briefs/trunks captured the hearts of our voters?

When we begin each new collection at its inception, we make sure that we have a full understanding of what the current trends are; be it fabric trends, color trends or fit trends and incorporate that into each design. Each season we create a new collection, but within each collection we look to make sure that each style has a stand alone appeal, whether its an accent pop color, fit of the pouch or the cut of the trunk.

What is your philosophy in creating new underwear? What are your main goals?

We have a brand philosophy that is not only to make the high quality and fashion trend product that we do, but it is always to design styles that will appeal to a wide demographic. It’s always been understood that young ppl want to look young and mature people want to look young and we try to look to satisfy them both equally and simultaneously.

What separates your trunk and boxer briefs from other brands on the market?

Since the inception of the brand, it’s evolved to find a fit in the market that hasn’t already been designed to by other brands. Through this evolution, we have been able to create a style, quality and look that says Junk Underjeans and becomes expected of the brand. One of the things that uniquely sets us apart is that we are a completely vertical company in that we manufacture our own product from designing it ourselves and producing it ourselves. We manage to maintain the integrity of the product by spinning , knitting, dyeing and sewing all of our own production so that we can always ensure the best available quality to our customers.

You aren’t just known for boxer briefs/trunks, what are some of your other styles that are a favorite of your customers/fans?

As the brand has expanded nationally, so to has our product offering. In each product category that we venture into we test the market and desire for new product from our brand and then build a category out accordingly. As a reference, within this past year we have launched a very successful athletic line under our Underjeans moniker and is branded as Underjeans Athlete. These collections which are in their 3rd season now include fashion performance, moisture wicking underwear as well as the inclusion of running shorts, workout shorts running/ workout leggings, hoodies, pullovers, tanks muscle tops and warm up sets.

Your swimwear won swimwear of the year as well. I have to share, that when we shot the 2015 swimwear guide. We got more comments from models on how comfortable your swimwear is, what makes your swimwear so comfortable?

Firstly, thank you for the positive feedback. I have found through the years that models have always been very genuine in sharing whether they do or don’t like something so we genuinely appreciate the first hand input. As I mentioned that we do our own production and along with that we have the ability to be specific with the yarns that we incorporate into our swim wear, our factory specializes in a proprietary nylon yarn that we incorporate along with spandex which both create a very soft comfortable finished fabric that we construct into our fashion swimwear styling.

What do you have planned for the summer of 2017 in terms of swimwear? And when will your 2017 swimwear collection be out?

As we previously mentioned expanding our product categories, a fully merchandised collection of swimwear was just launched at this past menswear show in Las Vegas, which was extremely well received. It consists of three dynamic color stories, each of which displays wonderfully as a collection and has a silhouette that can appeal to every consumer’s individual taste. The collection includes briefs, high-hip trunks, trunks, thigh length boxer briefs and knee length jammers, anything from solids, color blocks and print.

We can’t leave underwear out, what can we see in the terms of new underwear in 2017?

Under our extremely popular Junk brand, we constantly look to bring newness to each collection. In the new product that we will be delivering in June of 2017 is a fun range of underwear styles that utilize a base fabric of clean textured solids and fashion stripes but also incorporate multicolor and neutral geometric and logo design created as a sublimation print on the waistbands. This brings a fresh pop and will stand apart from previous collections and other brand.

Where can our readers buy you underwear? Also, where can they find you on social media?

As we have grown over the last several years, we acquire placement and highly respectable men’s fashion boutiques nationwide, as well as stores internationally. From UnderU4Men in Portland Oregon, Torso in Columbus Ohio, and Off Chute Too in Phoenix Arizona, as well as Simons a very fine department store chain in Canada, our collections can be found across the globe- Japan, Austria, South Africa and in U.K are some examples of our expanded placement.

In addition to being able to find our product for sale on our website at junkunderjeans.com, we can also be found at fine online retailers such as HIsroom.com.

Swimwear Sunday is back! If you are new to UNB, we run Swimwear Sunday through out the summer. Most of the posts will feature swim briefs, but we will profile all kinds of styles. It’s fun to have just a section for swimwear.

A new pair just released by 2EROS is the Sunset swim brief. 2EROS used a really great sunset print for this swimwear. 2EROS has always had a keen eye to find the most amazing prints for swimwear. Over the years they have tried many different prints. It’s become a signature of the brand now.

2EROS says this about the pair:

The V10 fit is now a core and loved fit for 2EROS. It boast a daring low-rise fit, the iconic 2EROS pouch which celebrates the male form and accentuates your every asset. The V10 Sunset captures the moment perfectly with yellow, orange, blue, and pink hues combined with silvery silhouettes and a gold foil feature.

This print isn’t over the top. The colors aren’t super bright and shouting “Look at me.” However, that said it’s a really interesting print that I will be will draw attention. Specifically, people asking where did you buy it or what brand is it?

Should this pair be in your summer rotation? We say yes it should. I”m a firm believer you need more than one pair of swimwear for summer. What’s the fun in just one pair? Get a few pairs like this and a few other from 2EROS. We guarantee that you won’t be disappointed in their swimwear.

BRAND: 2EROS

Jockstrap Central just launched these new Jack Adams Gridiron Jockstraps (with built in zippers) and a new yellow version of the classic jock inspired and bestselling Athletic 2.0 Jockstrap. And even better, you can get them at introductory pricing with their Jack Adams Sale going on until Sunday, March 26th.

Pay attention: The Jack Adams Gridiron Jockstrap is full of features and is like a mood ring: Whether you’re serious about looking good or you’re feeling frisky, the Gridiron has you covered (or not).

For the exhibitionist in you, Jack Adams has incorporated both a zipper and a drawstring. Undo the zipper for partial exposure then release the tied drawstring for the full monty. Plus being a jockstrap, your bum will always be on full display..

Now for the style and design portion of our program: This is seriously one well made and good looking jockstrap. Starting with the pouch: It’s made with a moisture wicking mesh fabric with a contrasting zipper in it’s own panel running vertically down the center. The zipper is reinforced with a backing fabric flap to prevent your dick getting caught when you unleash your beast or reign it back in. Bold contrasting colored piping edge the jock and match the color of the zipper. The pouch is both contoured plus the fabric has a four way stretch for better fit and comfort.

The waistband is equally awesome – it’s a full-on thick 2 inch wide waistband made with a mesh fabric wrapped elastic with a drawstring running through it. The fabric is perforated for visual interest and is super soft against your skin. The Jack Adams Logo sits dead center at the back of the strap.

Along with the Gridiron, Jockstrap Central also snuck in a new version of Jack Adam’s best selling, classic sport jock inspired Athletic 2.0 Jockstrap for the launch. Along with the existing blue and grey, red and black and grey and blue version, there’s now a yellow (gold) and black available.

Of course the best news is that Jockstrap Central also has a Jack Adams sale going on until Sunday so you can get all their Jack Adams jockstraps and Air Mesh shorts for 15% off including the new additions.”
