Cocksox furnished the CX75 Mesh Sports Brief for review.

Rating: 9/10

  • Daily Fit: 9/10
  • Sizing: 9/10
  • Construction: 9/10
  • Styling: 9/10
  • Daily Performance: 9/10

Pros: Not as big a pouch as the CX01, The mesh is sexy and not over the top, great starter pair for a guy to try mesh, tag info was printed in the pouch

Cons: Not the same pouch as CX01 (some of you love this pouch), Some may not like the basic colors.

UNB Tim recommendation:  This is a great pair for daily wear. It can be worn to work as equally as well on a date. It won’t loose it’s shape. Some mesh pairs can be made to be worn for an hour or more, this one I wore well over 12 hours and it felt great from the start till the end of the day. It’s also a perfect pair for a guy wanting to dip his toe in the mesh underwear world.

I am continuing the reviews of some of the latest Cocksox. So far they have been pretty good pairs. One of the newest lines is the Mesh line. I got the honor to review the CX75 Mesh Sports brief in white. It was one I have been curious about trying for some time now. It looked super sexy and a lot of fun.

The first thing I noticed was that this isn’t the same pouch in the CX01 briefs. It’s a more subtle pouch, meaning you won’t put everything out there. This maybe a bonus for some of you guys out there. Also, another thing that caught my eye was the tag. There is no tag in the back, it’s printed on the pouch. I thought this was a great touch. I can’t tell you how many times I have gotten mesh briefs, to only cut the tag out of the back.

I wore this to a somewhat active day. As I said above the pouch wasn’t as bulgy. The mesh wasn’t as stretchy as I thought it was going to be. This isn’t a bad thing but I expected something lighter and stretchier. However, it still fit great, I was not let down at all. It was a pleasant surprise for me. The mesh brief held up well to my running some errands and working. It’s a sexy pair that is made for a date night but designed for everyday wear as well. And, isn’t that the point of underwear to feel amazing and sexy each day.

Another area that worried me at first was the waistband. Having the fabric not be as stretchy, I wondered if it would stay up. I have reviewed pairs similar where the waistband couldn’t take all day wear. My fears were put to rest at the end of the day. The pair remained in place all day.

Speaking of fabric, this pair is made out of a 95% Nylon 5% Spandex. I received the white pair. It’s also available in black and red. The white seems to be the one that shows off less on me. Depending on skin tone you may have one that shows less than other pairs.

Sizing was spot on. It’s rare that I have had a pair that felt too small. I received and XL and it fit me to a T. Their sizing has been pretty consistent over the years. If you check the size chart, you should be confident the pair you get will fit you well.

I really enjoyed the brief. It held up to all day wear. It made me feel great all day. It is definitely a date night pair. I just need someone to wear it for! If you’re a fan of Cocksox and mesh, this is the pair for you. Also, if you want to try mesh for the first time. This is a great starter pair.

Imagine that on a brief, thong and pouch. Mix those styles with bright vibrant colors and you have the Gregg Homme Suspender Collection!

If you think the pair can’t get any sexier, you would be wrong. Each pair has a mini clip. This will allow for easy access when you need it most. This is probably the sexiest collection in the line up for me personally. The fabric is “This luscious and sensous delicate stripped knit will make you go wild. Ultra soft on your skin,”

Briefs and thongs have been staples in the Gregg Homme collections. I’m really glad to see the new pouch design. These can be hit or miss in the world of men’s underwear. Given the amazing fabric and design skills of Gregg Homme, I can bet this will be one of the best pouches on the market. When done right the pouch is one of the most comfortable designs on the planet.

The colors in this collection feature classic and fun colors. The classic colors are black and white. The fun colors are pink, purple and lime. My favorite is the Pink. Some of you out there may disagree but the picture above is super hot!

The new Gregg Homme line is a lot of fun. They always do something different and in their own unique style. One line they are doing their own style is the Rococo line. It’s their take on the lace trend in men’s underwear. Many guys out there are loving this style of underwear.

What makes this line different from all the other lace pairs on the market? First, Gregg Homme doesn’t skimp on fabrics. They use some of the best  fabrics on the market.

The Sukrew Full Jockstrap was furnished by Sukrew for review.

Rating: 9.4/10

  • Daily Fit: 9/10
  • Sizing: 10/10
  • Construction: 10/10
  • Styling: 9/10
  • Daily Performance: 9/10

Pros: Great design, Ergonomic pouch design, designed to make you feel sexy

Cons: Not many may wear it to the gym, I had issues getting it on but its user error.

Recommendation: If you’re looking for a super sexy jock. Any jock from Sukrew is for you. The design is made to make you feel sexy. I’m not sure guys will be wearing this to the gym. It’s more of a date night or play night pair. I think fashion jocks are taking the jock to the next level.


Let’s face it jocks really aren’t designed for working out anymore. They are more fashion than function. This is a good thing because there is so much more that can be done with jocks. One company taking their own spin on the jock is Sukrew. I was looking forward to wearing the jock. I have tried a few pairs of Sukrew and the pouch is always amazing.

Before I delve into the review. Let me say for jocks with straps that attach to the pouch like these. I always have issues with. Is it design? Nope, it’s more user error. When I slid these on they felt a bit funky. I messed up the straps (see above) and the pouch felt funny. After a few seconds of adjustment, I got situated. The pouch that I knew from the other pairs became apparent. I really liked the fit and feel.

I wore these to my part time job that is a little more active than running UNB. The support they gave were great. My one annoyance is the waistband kept ridding up a little in the back. I think this was because I had to bend over a lot that day. The pouch feels great. Sukrew has their own design that if it’s not ergonomic it’s pretty darn close.

The design is pretty cool. I have to finally learn to put these on. I don’t have too many jocks like this and I think I can just slide it on like a regular jock. You have to adjust the straps so the fit just right. After 2-3 minutes of me cussing and fidgeting. It’s set up as it should be. The color of the style is black with red. I love how they have the red on the side of the pouch. Sukrew has a really great design philosophy. The design philosophy for this jock is “Designed with an elastic ‘X’ over the pelvis this jock is intended to give a sexual focal point to the garment.” If you don’t feel sexy in this, well you’re not wearing it right!

The sizing is really great with Sukrew. I got an XL and it fit me pretty darn good. It’s been my experience that they are consistent with sizing. You won’t have to worry about sizing from different styles and lines. Everyone I had fit me pretty well.

cx01sc-decadence-1The CX01SC was furnished by Cocksox for review.

Rating: 10/10

  • Daily Fit: 10/10
  • Sizing: 10/10
  • Construction: 10/10
  • Styling: 9/10
  • Daily Performance: 9.8/10

Pros: Limited Edition Print, Great pouch, Bikini cut, awesome fabric

Cons: Was a bit smaller, can show more bulge than some guys would like

Recommendation: If you love Cocksox these are a must have. The limited edition pair made out of the original style. They fit great with the incredible pouch. They were a little tight when I put them on but really didn’t affect my daily wear.


This year Cocksox celebrated their 10th year in business. In the world of men’s underwear that’s quite an accomplishment. While in Vegas early this year, I heard of this pair. An anniversary pair that would be coming out. It would have words on the fabric that are used to describe Cocksox. The words are pretty spot on for the pair!

The Decadence collection is available in many of their popular styles. Of course, the pair I wanted was the trusty CX01. They fit well, but they were a bit smaller than other pairs. More on that in a minute. However, the print is my favorite. When I was told about it. I pictured a red pair with white and black writing. I wasn’t let down with this pair.

I wore this to work to give them a good work out. They fit like other pairs of Cocksox. They have an amazing pouch that gives you great support. They didn’t bulge as much as I thought they would. Sometimes a pair of Cocksox can make you show off everything to everyone! The pair moved with me and never got in the way. I had to lift and move and be active all day.

Sizing in these were a bit smaller than I am used too. Most pairs of Cocksox fit great. Even if I have worn a size smaller, they still fit pretty well. It wasn’t uncomfortable and I only noticed it when I put them on, after they had been on I didn’t really notice it anymore. Which is fine because I hope to loose weight again and won’t have to worry about these not fitting;!

If you are a fan of Cocksox, the Decadence line is a must have. It celebrates 10 years of an amazing company. Show your love for Cocksox with these!

shareyourAs most of you already know, we here at UNB are all about empowerment of guys to wear what they want and when they want. Without the preconceived notions of society. It could be a thong, lace, long boxer briefs, jocks, bikinis and the list goes on and on. UNB is open to guys of all sexual orientations, the only qualification is you love underwear!

We have a post called a Brief Tale. This is a post all about our readers. Where you guys can tell how you discovered underwear. You are able to share your personal story with readers who identify with and have lived the same story. It also helps us build a community of awesome guys! We here at UNB like to share but we love to hear from you guys. UNB is just as much ours as it is yours!

We have retooled the questions from two years ago. If you read Jayinca’s post this past week. This is the new format. Also, I had a few of you tell me that his story was very similar to their own. The best thing about underwear is we are more alike than we are different. I have learned that gay, straight and bi guys have such similar stories.

Lastly, this helps us fight the double standard in underwear. Showing all types of guys willing to open up about their undies, empowers more guys to be open with their love as well.

How can you share your story?

Email us at info@underwearnewsbriefs.com for the template. Then get it back to us! It’s that simple. Just be yourself and answer the questions honestly and tell your story. After it’s posted you will get feedback from other guys (especially if you share a social media account). And you just may inspire someone else!

why-are-we-doingWe have been debating doing sponsored posts for a while. We finally came up with an idea that would be good for brands and our readers. Our idea is to promote sales that brands and retailers have on our blog. This doesn’t mean we won’t be doing out Sales Briefs on big holidays. Our Black Friday/Cyber Monday are ones people look forward to all the time. Other holidays such as 4th of July, Labor Day, Memorial Day and more.

How can you tell it’s a sponsored post?

  • Before any text starts it will say sponsored post
  • They will run at 10 AM slot. This may change, if it does this page will be updated.
  • The posts will be tagged “Sponsored Posts”

What is a sponsored post?

  • Posts that were paid for by a brand or retailer
  • It can be content UNB creates or the brand.
  • The goal is for the post to drive traffic and sales for the sponsor

Why Did you do sponsored posts?

  • We needed ways to monetize the site more then we were doing.
  • I felt this was the best way to do it and keep our objectivity.
  • UNB will still remain independent and have our own opinions. And keep sharing them
  • I also believe that an ad for a sale is something you guys won’t mind seeing more often.
  • Our current advertisers get free spaces while other brands will pay for the space.

Our content won’t change from what you expect from UNB. Just know many of our 10 AM post will be sponsored. They will say so! Plus, they will be for sales that we know you guys will love as well. So hopefully this will be a Win-Win-Win. A win for you guys to get great undies, A win for us to monetize the site more and a win for brands who will get more sales!

The CX01BD was furnished by Cocksox for review.

Rating: 10/10

  • Daily Fit: 10/10
  • Sizing: 10/10
  • Construction: 10/10
  • Styling: 10/10
  • Daily Performance: 10/10

Pros:  Great fabric, incredible pouch, fun colors and did I say great pouch?

Cons: The bulge may be too showy for some guys, that’s about all I can see as a down side.

Recommendation: This is one of my favorite briefs of all time. I can’t recommend it enough. I think all guys need one or two of these in their underwear drawer. The support given by Cocksox is one of my favorite ever. They know how to make underwear without any straps or instructions to put on. They make a solid pouch that fits guys of all sizes. I say this is a must own pair!


It’s been a while since we had some Cocksox to review. They sent us over about 10 pairs that you will see in reviews soon. It will be split between myself, Beau Briefs and Salvatore. Cocksox being one of my favorite brands, I was really excited to get some of the pairs from the last year to try out. The CB01BD is one I have loved the color

The CB01BD is one I have loved the color combinations. It’s the CX01 brief cut but with contrasting trim. I received the Coral blue pair. Which is a blue on blue pair. But any of the colors would be amazing. The Vivid and Nightfall are two that are bright and fun. If you want a classic color, try the Carbon black.  It makes me want all the colors!

Knowing Cocksox like I do, I had to wear these to work. The incredible pouch is something I was looking forward too. I slid on the pair and felt instantly comfortable and at ease. The pouch has been one of my favorites for years. It fits me so well, it’s like it was designed for me. As the day went on I forgot I was wearing the pair. It covered and supported everything.

The fabric is 92% Supplex® 8% Lycra®. It is the perfect fabric for Cocksox. It breathes throughout the day. I never felt stifled. It conforms to every inch of my body and gives the best support. At the end of the day, the pouch is just as supportive as the beginning of the day.

The sizing of Cocksox is pretty much spot on with their sizing chart. You can almost be guaranteed that it will fit. The fabric has some give in case you buy smaller you won’t feel squashed or constrained. I have some a size smaller, that I wear on occasion, that fit good. I wouldn’t recommend doing that but, in my case, if you gain some weight you won’t have to get new undies.

If you’re looking for an amazing pouch and great fabric these are for you. They are stylish and fun. Made to the Cocksox standards!

aussieBum is back with a new range of sports performance undies called Flashr. The name may sound risque but the undies can be worn to the gym! Performance underwear is becoming big business in the world of underwear. Some are made with function over form. We’ve all seen those. If you want a little more form over function this line is for you.

The line consists of a brief and a jock. I have noticed in more sports oriented lines aB is making more jocks and less hipsters. I prefer working out, when I do, in briefs rather than boxer briefs. This is what aB has to say about the new Flashr line:

Stand out of the crowd with aussieBum’s new FlashR undies. These super soft cotton elastane undies come in brilliant optical white with an oversize waistband in blue or black. Flatlock stitching gives the support and durabality you expect, with a sports brief and jock cut giving ultimate freedom of movement. Get them now!

Both the brief and jock have oversized waistband. Which appears to be about 2 inches, give or take. This is also where the colors are located. Each pair in the line is a white body and the waistband color, the writing and stripes, are either white or blue.

The fabric is a 90% Cotton, 10% Elastane blend. Making it comfortable to wear and form fitting. Also, the white will make it easy to wear to the gym. We know many guys out there prefer to wear something more classic to the gym.

Make sure, if you’re an active guy, go to aussieBum and see the Flashr line. It could be in your gym bag for all your workouts.

Let’s face it underwear should be a lot of fun. One way to make underwear fun is prints. One company has come on the market with some fun prints. That company is dotwear. Founded by a pair of brothers who wanted to make unique underwear. Something different than what was on the market.

Dotwear believes that underwear gives you confidence as well. “Dotwear boxers will leave you feeling confident in whatever situation you happen to find your pants down.” This is something we support at UNB every day. How could you not have fun in a pair of Milk and Cookie Boxer briefs. Called Cookie.wear. Or a pair of Bluetooth.wear boxer briefs?

The attention to detail that goes into making each pair of dotwear boxers will not go unnoticed – you can feel and see the difference. Each pair is $28.00 and you get free shipping on orders $50 or more. So why not get two pairs!  Shop at the Dotwear website.

Gregg Homme is no stranger to Fetishwear. In years past they have used mesh, animal print, leather like, rubber like and actual leather in their collections. This year is no different. The fetish collection for this collection is the Diablo. Diablo is a mix of animal print and studs. That’s right, we’re not talking the guy in the undies, but actual metal studs on the undies.

You may have noticed I said animal print. But, looking at the picture above, it doesn’t look like animal print. The print is a subtle print that can be seen in the light. It’s a black on black print that many may not notice right off as an animal print. They have done this effect before and it’s perfect for the guy who has a bit of a wild side but doesn’t always want to show it.

Mix the print with the studs. Studs have really be part of the leather world for a while. They occasionally make their way into men’s underwear, especially more fetish underwear like Gregg Homme. “Paired with silver pointy studs along the front pouch and faux leather trims,  you will stand out.” The studs, I wouldn’t necessarily wear under work clothes. I guess you could but they could cause some strange bulges and such. It’s more of a “at home” or night out.

The Diablo is the line that has shirts as well as underwear. The styles available are Diablo Crop Top, Jock, T-Shirt, Boxer Briefs, Thong, Briefs and Tank Top. Each of them has the same print and studs fashioned to it in some way. I’m glad that Gregg Homme keeps the fetish side in their collections. Fetishwear can be uncomfortable after a while. This is not the case with Gregg Homme. This line is made to be worn our and comfortable for a night of dancing. As well, as a night in with someone or some people who are special. No Judgments here!
