Unknown-10Lace is one of those things in underwear, either you love it or you don’t. There is no in between in the world of men’s lace underwear. The lace trend crosses all sexual orientations as well. We have readers who are gay/bi/straight who all love lace and can’t get enough of it. Lace, isn’t exactly main stream, but is being accepted more and more as a fabric for men’s underwear.

ausieBum has released the new Lace range in a hipster and brief. Personally I love this collection. It’s a very small collection but fun to me. The brief is my favorite and yes I very much would wear it. From a design point of view is a mix of masculinity and femininity that really works well. Plus there is something about a guy who’s comfortable enough to wear lace.

This is what aussieBum has to say about the range: “Inspired by society’s evolution to accept and respect everyone’s right to live life the way they want. LACE pushes the boundaries for some, while for others embraces the concept of change. Made using the finest Italian fabric printed in a cross matching lace with no binding on the leg. This smooth silky finish will have even the hardest critics accepting fashion an interpretation of life.”

The Lace Range is available at the aussieBum website now. The brief retails for $19.34 and the trunk is $21.27

EW0334-2Before I start the review. Bikinis are my favorite cut of underwear. I love the fit and feel of them. When I saw the new Vermouth collection from Ergowear I knew I had to get some. I have a series of 3 underwear reviews coming up featuring Ergowear.

I have loved Ergowear since the early 2000’s. They make amazing pouches that fit like a glove. One of my favorites is a X3D brief in white. It’s got to be 10 years old and I still wear it. It’s one of those pairs I cant get rid of because of the fit. Flash forward to the new Vermouth collection.

EW0334-3

A few things to know about the Vermouth Collection. It’s a special collection they have released featuring some of their best sellers. They include styles from the X3D, Feel and Max collections. The styles include the thong, bikini and mini boxer. Also, there is just one color. It’s sort of a lilac (purple/pink color). This may scare some of you off but don’t let it.

So on with the review. Having a positive history with Ergowear, I was excited to try this line. When I slid it the Vermouth X3D bikini on I knew it would be a new favorite. The first thing I noticed was the fit. It’s a smaller cut bikini but with that ergonomic pouch. I loved the pouch and how it held everything together. The next thing I noticed was the amazing microfiber fabric. The fabric is some of the softest I have worn in a while. I thought it maybe modal but it’s a polyester/nylon blend. I love loved how it felt .

I wore the pair running errands. I wished I had had this pair in Vegas. The pair really breathes and moves with you. Its perfect for someone active or being outside in the hot sun. The fit kept all day and gave me amazing support. I really LOVED this pair. I wanted to wear it a second day, and  wished I had more than one pair.

Ergowear has one of the best sizing guides on the market. This will allow you to pick the perfect size. It think more brands should create a guide like they do. They tell you when you may want to go up a size. My XL fit me perfect. It wasn’t too tight or too loose. It was just right. I honestly don’t think you will have issues in sizing.

Pros:

  • Super comfortable fabric
  • Loved the color
  • Amazing and supportive pouch

Cons:

  • Some may not like the color
  • Some may not like the smaller cut

Reviews:

  • Daily fit: 10
  • Sizing: 10
  • Materials: 10
  • Styling: 10
  • Daily Performance: 10
  • Overall: 10

If you are a bikini fan this is a MUST have! Its not often I give a 10/10 on ratings but this has been one of my most favorite pairs I have reviewed in a long time.

The Ergowear Vermouth X3D Bikini was furnished by Candyman Fashion and is available for $28.48.

Underwear Kickstarters are taking off! The latest in the Kickstarter is JockUp!  I have followed them for a bit on Twitter and they reached out and told us about this effort. I really love underwear kick starters because you guys get to participate in the industry. If you see a company you like you can directly support them!

So what is JockUp doing?

“JockUp features a full line of underwear for the modern guy, specifically: real, masculine men that seek a fit and active lifestyle while wanting to look good. JockUp’s products are clean and confident with thoughtful detailing, which sets it apart from baggy ill-fitting cuts, crazy colors and materials of other brands. All garments are proudly designed and manufactured in California with moisture-wicking fabric, cut and sewn to enhance athletic performance.”

Their reward levels are pretty good as well. Here is a graphic explaining it all:

I’m really impressed by both of the new lines. These are underwear you could wear anywhere! Here is what they tell us about the collection:

Those who prefer the pitch to the pool hall will enjoy Fútbol, the underwear of choice for the striking striker, the macho midfielder and the dashing defender.

The Attacker Mini-Short has a low cut waist and high cut legs; Goalkeeper Thong offers a low rise waist and one inch t-back; Fullback Bikini is square cut with full back coverage. Each style comes with a comfortable enhancer pouch, and the black/green or yellow/turquoise color selections really stand out.

FullSizeRender-1Summer is almost over but the ability to get great swimwear isn’t. I ran across the brand thanks to Colby Melvin. He posted a picture on his Instagram and I have to find out more about the brand! We got a chance to chat with them about the brand.
Q: What made you start your own swimwear line? How long have you been making these fun pairs of swimwear? 
I have always had an obsession with the beach since I was a little man, as I grew up older I always looked for the hottest swimwear and was never satisfied. Suits where always plain and simple solid colors and nothing that impressive that would catch someones attention . Till I made my own…DANNY MIAMI Swimwear!
Q: Some of your pairs are named Royal Lust and Lavish Lave. Where do you get inspiration for these prints? 
It represents me and my love for fashion with a touch from the sexiest place in the world… Miami.
I started the process at the begging of this year and recently launched the brand about 7 weeks ago, my inspiration for the prints always come from rich and vivid colors, extravagant, fancy prints like none other that  I call it Casual Luxury, there is nothing more casual then swimwear and underwear… Lol
