CockpitUndies Wants EveryGuy To Wear Swim Thongs

No Comments

cockpitundies-swim-thongsWe know a lot of our readers have taken the jump to wearing thongs. It’s fast becoming one of the favorite styles of our readers. In our last reader survey, it was the second most popular style you guys wear. But have you ever thought of wearing a thong a swimwear? I predict over the next few years we will see more swim thongs for men.

One company on the forefront of this is CockpitUndies. They look like a mild-mannered underwear store. When you dig a little deeper by brand. You will see the Cockpit Swimwear. Which is a collection of all thongs. Not just any thong one of a kind thong. Well, not really one of a kind. Each print is made in different sizes. So there are only one in each size. The Title of each item shows the name of it along with the sizes its available in.

We got to talk to the man behind the company and he told us that Cockpit Swimwear is for guys of all shapes and sizes. He’s not making this just for the 28-32 waisted guys. He specifically wants guys on the large and XL end of the spectrum to try thongs. Like us at UNB, Cockpit wants to promote a positive body image of all guys wearing their swimwear. This something we can get behind!

Designing the thongs he told us that it’s designed to fit a guy. There will be no gaps in the pouch to unintentionally show things off. Also, the pouch is designed to give great support without being too enhancing. I know we have readers who like the “bullet” type of pouch. These are designed for guys of all pouch sizes and won’t show off or enhance.

They prefer prints over solid colors. Hence you will see the prints change up throughout the year. Yes, there are some solids but he said they prefer to not do as many solids. As with the current trend with underwear, we are seeing the prints cockpitundies-eric-alden-thongcome into the world of swimwear as well.

They don’t just make thongs, the swimwear comes in a thong, g-string and rio cut. All are revealing and fun. If you’re going to wear something, give something a bit smaller a try. I mean, we all like smaller cut underwear, why not carry this over to swimwear. I say give it a try guys.

Me being a bigger guy I asked the question about sizing. I was told that the XL can go up to guys with a 46-inch waist. The pairs are designed similar to a one size fits all design. A guy who wears XL or XXL can wear their XL without many issues.

It’s really amazing to see a brand of skimpy swimwear go after bigger guys. He makes swimwear for all.  He wants all guys to know regardless of size that they should rock something fun, colorful and skimpy. Enjoy your day at the pool, beach or laying out. I have worn swim thongs in my much younger days when I was much thinner. After talking to Cockpit I may have to give these a try. The best thing is that the thongs are pretty reasonable. All pairs list for $25 at their site. Which, for swimwear is an amazing price.

Check out the awesome swim and tell them at CockpitUndies we sent you. Support a great company that is for all guys to feel sexy in what they wear!

Review – Andrew Christian BLOW Gilded Jock 90042

No Comments

90042_jock-_6_

This pair was furnished by Andrew Christian for review

Rating: Overall 9/10

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

Pros:

  • Classic color scheme
  • Soft and comfortable material
  • Great pouch

Cons:

  • Some may not like the BLOW on the waistband
  • The pouch is supportive but not ergonomically designed. Looser fit
  • More of a fashion jock

UNB Tim’s Recommendation: It’s a great jock for running errands or a day at work. I am not sure I would wear it to the gym or active. I could see it under a suit or a night out. The fabric will be something I think most guys will love. This will be a pair I plan to wear often.

One of the pairs we received from Andrew Christian is the BLOW Gilded Jock. It is one I really wanted to try. I really liked the look of the jock and the fabric. The previous review of the FUKR Net Brief, I hoped it lived up to or even exceeded that review.

The jock didn’t disappoint. It was probably one of the most comfortable pairs I have tried from Andrew Christian. The pouch is made out of 95% Cotton 5% Spandex blend. It was super soft. It really felt awesome on. The pouch was supportive and not too tight. A lot of sports jocks can be super tight. This one let things fall naturally and comfortably.

I wore the BLOW Gilded Jock on a very hot day. In Atlanta, we were blessed with 90-degree weather in September. This was a great choice for the day. I wore it to a job where I was outside and in the car a lot. The jocks material and design kept me cool. I was really happy about that. One design element I really like is the strap design. It’s not a strap sewn onto the waistband. The design has a solid fabric sewn into the waistband. Then the leg straps attached. This kept the straps in place.

The sizing is pretty spot on. Again, I never had an issue with Andrew Christian sizing. They have had a consist ant sizing over the years. Just make sure you double check the size guide for the exact sizes. The XL I received fit pretty well.

Lastly, is the design. I really like the solid black with gold trim. The center seam is gold as well as the waistband BLOW writing. Black and Gold is a classic combination. It also comes in white and red.

BRAND: Andrew Christian

Are Swim Thongs the Next Big Thing in Men’s Swimwear?

1 Comment

swimthongOver the last two years, the popularity of thongs has grown. It also shows no signs of slowing down. Across all guys (gay, straight or bi) seem to be wearing them for underwear. However, will this carry over to the world of swimwear? I’m not saying that every guy will be sporting a thong but the popularity will increase.

Swim thongs have been very popular among a small set of men. They are very passionate about the style and have had meet ups in Palm Springs and other areas. While it was mainly gay guys, the style is growing among all men. We are starting to see new thong swimwear from JOR and new company Cockpit Undies (More on them soon!).

Unlike swim briefs, thongs leave a bit less to the imagination. Your assets are on display for all to see. Some guys this is a benefit, while other see this as a deal breaker. I have worn them years ago but I don’t have much in the asset department. When I did wear them, they were a lot of fun to wear. I never wore them at a pool party or beach. It was pretty much at a private pool.

The benefits of a swim thong, yes there are benefits! Thongs have less material than swim briefs and shorts. It allows for a much greater freedom of movement. Many of you guys talk about how you hate shorts in water. They never dry and feel like you’re swimming with rocks. With a thong, you have neither of these issues. Also, you get a more all over tan. This is good if you hate tan lines. Lastly, it’s as bare as you can dare on many beaches.

Would I wear them now? Honestly, it’s a maybe. It would have to be in a thong friendly environment. It wouldn’t be a local pool or beach. It would have other men of all shapes and sizes wearing them. As more thongs come out for swimwear, we will let you guys know!

Would you wear a swim thong?

What is the Best Fabric for Underwear? Modal!

No Comments

modalFabric can make or break a pair of underwear. There is nothing worse than seeing a pair of underwear that looks amazing. Only to put it on and realize that it scratchy, confining and no give fabric. Fabric is one of the most important things in underwear to me. My favorite fabric for underwear is Modal.

Why Modal you ask? 

It’s Super Soft

Modal is one of the softest fabrics I have ever worn. The first time I slid on a Modal pair of underwear was like the first time I slid on my first pair of bikinis. This is the fabric I have waited on for years. It felt amazing against my skin. One thing to know that it offers less support than other fabrics. If you are a fan of ergonomically designed pouches, It will not be made out of Modal.

Breathability and Moisture Control

Modal is a very breathable fabric. It is perfect for working out, running or being active. You won’t have underwear that feels like you went swimming. This is why I am not a fan of 100% cotton underwear. If you are active your underwear feels like you went swimming and never gets dry. Modal will allow everything to breathe and feel great.

Feels Great

Not only will it feel great against your skin. It will make you feel amazing. When you wear fabrics you love, you feel better throughout the day. We firmly believe that underwear brings you confidence. We don’t think you should wear something that doesn’t bring you comfort. Modal makes me feel amazing. I highly recommend it to anyone needing underwear to be active and feel great in!

Which Brands Use Modal?

Many brands now use Modal? One of my favorite lines was Cocksox Backstage, which is no longer made. Obviously is a company that is making great pouches out of the Modal. Tani is another brand using a good amount of Modal in their lines as well. Even new comers, such as Krakatoa, are depending on the fabric.

We hope you will try Modal if you haven’t, we will bring you more fabrics soon!

Review – Andrew Christian FUKR Net Brief 90036

No Comments

90036_brief-_1_-copyThis pair was furnished by Andrew Christian for review

Rating: 9/10

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

Pros:

  • Super comfortable mesh fabric
  • Great supportive pouch
  • Sexy design perfect for every day wear

Cons:

  • Those guys who don’t like bright waistband may not like the FUKR band
  • If you’re conservative in underwear choice this is not for you
  • Mesh isn’t for everyone

UNB Tim’s Recommendation:

If you want a super sexy and fun pair of underwear. The Andrew Christian FUKR Net Brief 90036 is it. The mesh fabric is one of the best I ever tried. It’s fun, sexy and amazingly comfortable. I recommend this pair for anyone wanting to try or who already love mesh underwear

We got a few pairs of new Andrew Christian to review. One pair I was very curious about was the FUKR Net Brief. I am a fan of mesh but it’s not all meshes. There are a few that make you feel like you are rubbing your manhood against a cheese grater. Ok, that was a little too over the top but it’s true. Some mesh fabrics were made to be taken off. I had a bit worried about this pair but I was going to give it a try.

I wore these on a weekend day where it was going to be around the house. Just in case things went down hill with these. The first thing I noticed was the pouch. Net underwear in the past really haven’t had great pouches. I slid them on and I was seriously impressed. The mesh didn’t feel like mesh. It felt more like a solid fabric. It never got annoying at all. To say I was impressed is an understatement. The fabric was pretty incredible. I could have worn these on a regular day. Where have these been in the HOT southern summer.

The pair is made out of the following fabric. The Light Cool Fabric Content: 57% Cotton 38% Polyester 5% Spandex and Soft Contrast Stretch Fabric Content: 93% Cotton 7% Spandex. This fabric really impressed me. I was not expecting it to be so comfortable throughout the day. It was a very wise choice of them to use.

The sizing of the pair was pretty much as guaranteed. I wore and XL and that is my normal size. It fit me just fine. Make sure you double check the size chart. I don’t recall anyone really complaining about AC and their sizing. You should be good picking

I really liked this pair. I will wear it much more and not just on date nights. The FUKR brief is perfect for hot and humid weather like Atlanta in 90+ degree heat. If you’re looking for something super sexy and fun, give this brief a look. I don’t think you will be disappointed

aussieBum CottonRidge Range

No Comments

is_brief_greenforest_01_160909142106aussieBum is on a roll. They have released quite a few new ranges over the last few weeks. One of the latest ranges is the CottonRidge. It’s more of a conservative line or as we like to say, a classic line. Some of our readers may go “boring.” But we all need classic pairs in our underwear drawers.

The CottonRidge range is a 95% Cotton, 5% Elastane fabric blend. The Elastane will give it just enough stretch to feel great. The older I get the less I am a fan of 100% cotton underwear. I prefer 5% or more of another fabric such as Elastane or Spandex/lycra.

The colors available in this range are Army, Denim, Marble, and Ocean. The four colors are available in a brief and hipster. Each style has the aussieBum branded waistband in black and white. The design is a very classic design in color and style.

The range has been enhanced over previous collections. This new CottonRidge has enhanced shaping and pouch. For the majority of our readers a great pouch design is needed. There are very few things, outside of itchy tags, you guys hate more. It has to be supportive and comfortable over a range of guys size. Pouches are not for just the hung guys.

This range is a limited edition collection as well. If you like it, you better act fast. They won’t guarantee that the collection will be around much longer! Most limited edition collections aren’t around too long before the popular sizes are sold out!

I personally like the collection. As I stated above, we all need classic pairs in our underwear drawer. We may not always be able to wear our favorite thong or jock to an event. These are great to have in those instances.

BRAND: aussieBum
PAIR: CottonRidge Brief and Hipster
COLORS: Army, Denim, Marble, and Ocean
FABRIC: 95% Cotton, 5% Elastane
SIZES: Small – X-large
COST:  $14.50/15.00

Jockstrap Central has the Nasty Pig 2016 Union Suits

1 Comment

nasty-pig-union-suit-2016-26

This is a big deal. Nasty Pig usually does one single production run of their union suits so when they’re gone, they’re gone until next year. Jockstrap Central brings in what they can but consistently sell out within weeks and countless customers end up being left out in the cold.. .literally. In other words, snag them while you can.

It doesn’t get more masculine and sexy than this. Union suits conjure up images of the working man and while Nasty Pig respects the union suit’s past with their version yet they improve it in every way. As expected, they’re available in classic union suit color red, in serious black and new for this year, a very masculine military olive-green.

Instead of the traditional flannel, Nasty Pig uses their signature super-soft, top quality lightly ribbed spandex/cotton underwear fabric. Here’s the hottest part: the snap closure that runs down the chest also runs all the way under the crotch and around to the back ending just above the butt – is an innovative back closure solution, way sexier than the traditional flap. Need we mention that the snap closure, both front and back, make for an easy exit and entry. Finally, the union suit is finished with a tone on tone Nasty Pig logo on the left chest.

Wear them everywhere you want: under your jeans when you hit the streets, paired with a sick set of high tops, or be truly unique and wear them as outerwear before it’s gets too cold. You can even wear them with nothing at all next to a roaring fire on Christmas morning.

Of course there is one thing hotter than a Nasty Pig Union Suit and that’s a Nasty Pig Union Suit presented the Jockstrap Central way. They’ve got their favorite exhibitionist models Adam Stray and Caleb King to gear up and let’s just say there may be a few explicit shots over at their website. Grab a towel and enjoy yourself.!

Thong Thursday – My Favorite Thong Gregg Homme Torrid

No Comments

874-torrid-whiteI am not the biggest thong lover in the world men’s underwear. I got my start wearing I think it was Sauvage thongs. All I remember is they looked like striper wear. I even wore them to the gym a few times. Then I stumbled across the 2(X)IST Y-Back thong. It really opened my eyes to wearing thongs on a more daily basis. They weren’t something to show off in but rather undies for everyday wear.

One of my current thongs that is a must have is the Gregg Homme Torrid. A warning, when you get this in the mail, if you order online. The package will feel empty. Next, when you take it out of the package, it will look way too small. You will have the thought, “How will my junk fit in this tiny thong?” Once you slide it on you will see the amazing stretch of the fabric it’s made out of. It fits like it was made just for you.

Why I like this pair? It’s got a pouch that fits so well. It conforms to your body no matter your size or shape. It’s not going designed for sports, so don’t expect it to be super tight. The fabric holds everything in place and feels great but it’s a looser fit. I like this because it will move throughout the day. Next, is the fabric. I don’t know where Gregg Homme gets their fabrics but it’s nothing short of magic. How can something so small hold everything in it and comfortably. Match that with the great feeling and it’s a winner. Lastly, is the string. Some of them I hate. It feels like I’m being rubbed the wrong way. This one makes me forget I”m wearing one throughout the day.

If you are new to thongs. Try this one out. It will be a fit and a color you will love! It’s a great starter thong. Yes, it’s a bit pricey but Gregg Homme is some of the best-made underwear brand on the market.

BRAND: Gregg Homme
PAIR: Torrid Thong

Brief Distraction featuring Ty Alexander

Thongs are becoming more and more popular. We have seen a big upswing in interest from you guys. I saw Ty Alexander on Twitter and he posts a lot of pics of him in thongs. We got his permission to use his pic for our Thong Thursday Brief Distraction. We asked him why he likes thongs. He said ” I like the feeling of being sexy under my clothes it’s kind of a little hidden secret you have all day.  Also if you have a natural bubble butt it allows it to jiggle a little more I think.”

Jockstrap Wednesday – Flaunt it in Go Softwear

No Comments

2_7dab9e51-4a27-41c9-8ee4-2685c3c15387_largeIt’s Jockstrap Wednesday! We wanted to profile something that is on the fun side. We haven’t done too much with jock briefs. However, when I saw the new Go Softwear After Dark Flaunt Brief I had to profile it today! The After Dark line is one that is more fetish related, but this one you could wear anytime.

The brief has a solid pouch with a different color mesh material. The colors are vibrant and bright. This really sets off the black pouch and trim. Pair that with the matching color Hard Core waistband.Go Softwear has redesigned the 1 1/2 inch waistband. Those who are not fans of too crazy bands. The Hard Core name is in the same color as mesh and just on the front. The rest of the band is solid black.  Go Softwear has redesigned the 1 1/2 inch waistband. This means if it does show over your jeans, you will leave people guessing on what you have on!

The colors of the line are Black/Fuchsia, Black/Royal and Black/Lime. My favorite is the Fuchsia. Just something about the off setting black that I just love. The fabric is Fabric Content: 95% Rayon 5% Spandex. Mesh Fabric is 90% Nylon 10% Spandex. This allows for a “spacious front pouch.” The spandex will give a bit of a give and create a great pouch.

Go Softwear makes some really fun designs. The After Dark line has been one of their best sellers. It’s just a really fun line. This new Flaunt Brief fits in nicely. The colors contrast the black really well. It will stand out if you wear out or wear in! I say great job Go Softwear! We will bring you some of their new singlets soon!

BRAND: Go Softwear
