RounderWear – UNB Holiday Guide 2016 from UNB Blog on Vimeo.

One new brand in the guide this year is RounderWear. If you aren’t familiar with them, they create enhancing pairs that gives you a little more in the back or in the front. The pairs we featured in this years guide are the Padded Tech Boxer, Padded Tech Trunk, and the Lift Tech Trunk. Models are Drew Ater, Wes Holland, and Damien Michael Chase.

With the demise of Bike Jockstraps, you maybe looking for a great alternative for the classic jock. Well, look no further than JockUp. They have a jock that is everything classic. It has the wide waistband, comfy pouch and leg straps. They even have the stripe in the waistband and label on the front!

JockUp is a company I have profiled on UNB a few times. I think they are doing some great things in the world of underwear. They do classic cuts but updated for the modern man. Matthew the owner, has really found a great section of the market to be in!

They have had the white classic jock, but no colors. He said a while back that they would be releasing colors in the near future. He has made good on that promise. I was scrolling through Instagram and I saw the red! It made me very happy. There is also a black jock as well.

If you are a jock fan and looking for a replacement for the Bike #10, I highly suggest giving the JockUp classic jock a try. As I mentioned above, it has many of the same features as the classic jock. They have updated the fabrics to meet the needs of guys needs today.

The fabric is a Bamboo blend. You may be asking why is that good? It has breath-ability for working out. It also has some anti-bacterial properties as well. It’s a great update to the classic jock. I know many don’t like the old school nylon pouch. They want a bit more support and comfort.

This is perfect gift for the jock lover in your life, or maybe for yourself. As I said it’s in white, red and black currently.

BRAND: JockUp
PAIR: Classic Jock
COLORS: Red also in White and Black
FABRIC: Bamboo/Elastic blend pouch
SIZES: Small – X-Large
COST: $29.95

This year we talked about underwear as gifts. Either its for you or someone else. If you haven’t read that post, head back to the UNB Archives for the Underwear as Gifts post. This post got me thinking. We all love certain things and are uncertain about what others like. It hit me why not give a subscription as a gift.

How do Subscriptions Work?

Think of it as the underwear of the month club. Every month you get a new pair of underwear. You pick the size and usually style. Then each month like clockwork you get something in the mail. Some of the services will let you pick one style. Like a brief, boxer brief, jock or thong. And you have to stick with that style. Others, will let you get a random style. So you never know what you’re going to get.

Some of the services pick a brand and send out the entire line. That means they will send out that line in each style. Such as the SupaWear SupaDupa line. Whereas, others will mix up what is sent out not always doing the same brand. If you’re getting this along with someone else you may not want to be matchy matchy, but that depends on your style.

Lastly, you can get underwear delivered in a few options. Most do 3 months, 6 Months or a Year. Just look at each site to see what they offer.

For Yourself

If you read UNB on any regular basis. You have styles and brands you love. Some of you even have very large collections. For someone to get you undies, it could be difficult for them to give you something you don’t have in your collection. A subscription will allow them to buy you underwear but get something new every month. Maybe even from brands you haven’t tried or mix up and get different styles.

You can suggest a service to someone close to you. Especially, if they know you love underwear. It takes the hassle out of trying to find something you don’t have in your underwear drawer.

For Someone Else

Let’s say you have a friend who wants to try new undies. You could go out and buy a pair, but wouldn’t exposing them to more than one pair be the perfect gift? An underwear a subscription will expose them to different styles, brands and fabrics. It will allow them to explore underwear with each new shipment.

Give them a 3 month or 6 month subscription to expose them to many different brands. I would suggest getting them a subscription that rotates styles as well. They may Thank you for it later!

Suggestions to Subscription services

There are tons of services. But, here are a few we recommend. I have tried most of these and don’t think you will have any issues with them!

Enjoy Undies this Holiday Season!

Croota – UNB Holiday Guide 2016 from UNB Blog on Vimeo.

Croota is an Australian brand that we have worked with many times over the years. They been in one of our previous guides. They make some awesome boxer briefs/trunks. One of their favorites of readers are the seamless pairs such as the Dirty HIpster, Jetliner Denim and Dancing Dahlia. Also, they have super fun prints and colors. Our models in this video are Drew Ater, Wes Holland, and Damien Michael Chase. See the entire guide on our website – http://bit.ly/2hwewQA

What could make Cocksox even better? Silver and Gold! I’m not talking made out of the two metals but metallic colors! The new Lustrous Elements. “The super-soft Cocksox waistband in lustrous metallic gold and silver, boldly contrasting against backdrops of black and white. Compound this with signature Cocksox enhancing comfort in high performance Supplex fabric. These perfect mix of elements are a hallmark for essential contemporary underwear.”

They have released the Lustous Elements collection is in 5 styles. They are the CX01MT Bikini, CX76MT Sport Brief, CX21MT Jockstrap, CX12MT Boxer, and CX05MT Thong. The two colors as mentioned are Gold and Silver. The Gold is paired with a dark fabric that makes the gold POP. The silver is a little more subtle with a white fabric.

Cocksox has it’s own design style. I think it their down under sensibility. They use the best fabric and colors that make their underwear look as amazing as they feel to wear.

Modus Vivendi is without question one of the world’s most prolific brands of men’s underwear and, as you probably know, it is Greece’s premier brand.

As it does each year, Modus Vivendi has put forward in 2016 a very extensive collection. It has featured designs of many different inspirations, presented in photographic campaigns from the four corners of the earth.
With its latest release the brand returns home, to Greece. The new Meander Line pays tribute to Ancient Greek civilisation, drawing inspiration from perhaps the most recognisable symbol of classic geometric art, the ‘meander’. This ancient key pattern has decorated countless buildings and adorned sculptures and friezes, becoming an icon of Greek art.

The Meander Line is luxurious. It comprises underwear and loungewear in two colours, blue and white, embellished with gold accents. Made from a top-quality cotton blend fabric, the line offers favoured styles that will please every man.

The campaign for the Meaner Line was produced in Athens. The photographs are the work of one of Greece’s top creative photographers, Vangelis Kyris. Our Greek kouros, Christos Katsavochristos, presents the line in classical poses of strength and control. This stylish underwear is bold, masculine and comfortable. As you would expect from Modus Vivendi.

Nasty Pig is back with their last collection of 2016 and what better a launch for the shiny season than the Nasty Pig Titanium Collection. With the serious jet blackmodal and metallic (titanium) waistbands and iconic Nasty Pig pig logo front and center, this brief is going to get you noticed. It may be uncomplicated but it’s striking in it’s simplicity and the perfect brief for dressing up (could this be your new year’s outfit?) or getting down and dirty.

Choose either the Titanium Jockstrap or Titanium Brief (or both).With a jet-black pouch in Modal, our all-time favorite modern fabric. It’s natural, made from the beech tree, feels and wears like lycra but breathes like cotton. The double walled pouch won’t cramp your style (or your junk) as it’s not only contoured but the hint of spandex means it’s super stretchy. The pouch is edged with a contrasting grey piping for looks and added support. But what sends the jock and brief over the threshold of being basic to the precipice of ballastic is the above mentioned shiny metallic one and half inch wide waistband and the iconic pig logo front and center.

Our model Manny is putting both the brief and jock through their paces so we sure to hit our website to see the latest addition to our model roster.

The UNB Holiday Guide is out. We had a series of delays this year, so we were unable to release on Black Friday. With all that went wrong, we had a lot of fun shooting the guide. We shot it in the North Georiga Mountains. Which was an amazing location, however, we had wildfires a few miles away. This limited us to shoot indoors. This year’s guide features Clever, N2N Bodywear, Croota, JOR, Rounderwear, Dotwear, Krakatoa, and Cocksox.

I know we have quite a few jock fans out there. One company that always does interesting things with jocks is PPU. They make a series of jocks, jocks briefs, and well interesting designs. The new 1604 is more of a jock brief than a jock. It has the PPU spin on it as well. Which includes a great design and fun colors.

The official description is: “PPU Jockstrap is perfect for the guy who likes a sporty and sexy style. Incorporating a low rise, lean cut brief with a sporty jockstrap. On the front this piece combines two fabrics to turn the pair into a stylish design one.  You’re left with a look that’s body flattering and oh so sexy, perfect for any occasion”

It comes in two different color combinations. The first is white. But it’s not the plain white. It has green waistband/trim and a black design on the pouch. The second is Gray. Instead of green the waistband/trim in pink and the same black design on the pouch. I love both of these colors. I’m a big green fan so it’s hard for me to make up my mind on which one I like best. Let’s say I wouldn’t turn either one down! For those who want a solid color, there is as black version.

PPU is a Columbian brand so it may run smaller. Double check the official sizing chart for the exact sizes. When in doubt go up a size in this brand. Trust us you will be happier! If you’re a fan of Jock Briefs we think you need to check this pair out! It will add some spice to your underwear drawer just in time for the holidays! Or maybe get a jump on early Valentine’s Day date night undies!
