1-8-15-1The new Trophy boy brief is out. I will say this is one of my favorite lines from Andrew Christian. This line is made for the guy who’s got a trophy to show off. It has a super large pouch and is a blessing or guys who need it. Each guy has different needs in underwear, some need  pouch, some need back coverage and the list goes on. Andrew Christian answered the endowed problem and has kept the line around!

Here is what Andrew Christian has to say about the pair: “The waistband features our signature Trophy Boy label with a pop of color and is soft to the touch as well giving the appearance of a smaller waistline. Bold colors with contrasting stitching and trim, will get you excited to put these on. This brief is very similar to our Almost Naked collection with more room in front, just where you need it. The anatomically correct brief features dual contrasting fashion detailed leg openings. When you pull them on it feels like You’re not wearing any underwear at all, 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 new colors available are heather and purple. This is a limited edition pair so it won’t be around long so you snooze you loose! Its available for $19.93 from the Andrew Christian site. Check it out if you are interested fast!

The League range from aussieBum is a staple of the brand. Each year this line is updated. Some years its a a slight color update, meaning they add one or two colors. Other times they do a complete revamp. This year they did a complete revamp of the line. The colors they chose are a mix of colors you don’t normally see in swimmer. I really like the color selections.

The colors they chose are: Flamingos (pictured above), Peacocks, Sharks, Sparrows, Dolphins, Tiger, Doves, Leopard and Whales. Can you guess which colors is which? I bet you can’t. Well Flamingos is pink, Peacocks is a teal, Sharks is a lighter blue, Sparrows is red, Dolphins is a medium blue, Tiger is orange, Doves is white, Leopard is black and Whales is a dark blue. All pretty cool colors.

The line is a square cut design. Each year is represented on the front right hip or back in the number. This year is 15 so there is a 15 on it. This series has been around for over 5 years so you may have seen it on the net with different pictures. The first time I remember seeing it was in 2010 and they did a Water Polo shoot.

It’s a great suit for those not wanting to go full swim brief but wear something fun at the beach or pool. With the addition of these amazing colors you will stand out for sure. Especially if you wear the Flamingos pink suit. That suit, mark my words will be one of the first to sell out. Pink in swimwear is always awesome. Pink isn’t going anywhere in men’s underwear or swimwear.

If you are interested in the line you can see all the pictures at the aussieBum site. The suits retail for $36.21 on the aussieBum site.

When you think Pop Stars you would want as as an underwear model, I would be safe to assume that Justin Bieber is not top of your list. But he is the new face of Calvin Klein. It was released on his Twitter with the phrase “it begins.” I will be the first to admit the pictures don’t look half bad.

Justin joins former CK underwear models Mark Wahlberg, Antonio Sabato Jr, Marcus Schenkenberg, Fredrik Ljungberg, Djimon Hounsou and Brandon Stoughton. CK has never shied away from making controversial picks for their models. In the 197o’s he had a very young Brooke Shields say “Nothing becomes between her and her Calvins” when she was just 17. When he got Marky Mark aka Mark Wahlberg he had a rougher image than he does today. So many people were skeptical about it.

6a00d8341c730253ef01b7c72ff07c970b-800wi

When I first saw this I thought maybe it was a hoax. Back in the 90’s Woody Harrelson had a bill board up in Times Square as a CK underwear model. It turned out it was just part of a movie called “The Cowboy Way.” But do a Google search and you will see this is legit. It’s reported in everything from the Daily Mail in the UK to US Magazine. So the Bieb’s is going to be in CK for a bit.

What do you guys think to this choice? It’s not the one I would choose for them. I think they should get an someone like Adam Levine, Chris Evans, Liam Hemsworth or  for a lesser known actor maybe Matt McGorry. But I can see why they would pic Justin. For one, he’s a controversial figure and they are going to get massive publicity (we are doing a post on it). Next, you got to admit he does look good in the pics. I was surprised he has put on some muscle, has a few more tats and yeah prob photoshopped for it.

6a00d8341c730253ef01b7c72ff07c970b-800wi

Do you feel CK made a good choice in choosing Justin s the new face of CK? Or do you think they made a big mistake in having him pose in his undies and joining the ranks of previous models.

The temperature is about to turn COLD here in the States. Even in warmer climates a cold front is moving in and bringing below average temperatures! So it’s the weather for Long Johns. It’s making wish I had snagged me a pair before now! Go Softwear’s American Jock has added pair of long johns to the Active line.

These aren’t your typical long johns. They are made out of a “lightweight athletic stretch mesh fabric making them ideal to wear underneath regular pants for warmth or with your favorite workout gear for added muscle support.” So they may not be ideal for super cold climates but if you’re planning to be active and want some extra coverage these maybe perfect for you!

The entire Active line is black with a trim color. Those colors are red, royal and yellow. The design as described by Go Softwear is ” This design has a functioning front fly for easy access as well as banded at the bottom with contrast color trim for a clean sporty look. The colorful 1 ¼ inch waist band is superbly woven with AMERICAN JOCK logo feels like a second skin”. The long Johns retail for $49.50!

It’s a really new take on long johns. I love the what Go Softwear does for men’s underwear. They are a company that has it’s own vision and has been around for a while. They continually do amazing underwear! Check these out and more at the Go Softwear site.

Over the last year Singlets have been big in the gear market. They have appeared at most companies and several companies are known for their amazing singlets. I have received many questions from friends and readers about getting a singlet. Which one should they get, what’s important to look for and just general information about them.

Singlets are different than underwear. First I wouldn’t recommend wearing them to work during the day. It may sound like a good idea to wear it as an under shirt that doesn’t come untucked. However, if you get a traditional singlet there is no way to get out of it to use the bathroom unless you take all your clothes off. Which could be problematic when at work. Especially if you wear a suit or uniform to work every day. Some of the shorter singlets you can mange to get creative and take care of when nature calls but its not always easier to do.
There are more than one kind of singlet. Believe it or not there are several type of singlets. I arrange them in High Cut,

prd_matman-beijing-fila-cut-wrestling-singlet-royal.xlg
Matman Singlet from Internationaljock

Low Cut and Fetishewear. The high cut ones are like a full tank on top and the legs to just above the knee. Some of these can be hard to get in and out of. The low cut ones are thinner straps that go mid stomach and sort of a racer back and the legs end on your upper thigh. The lower cut seem to be harder to find these days. I couldn’t find a pic of the ones I like best. The fetishwear are ones that could be either and made out of mesh, have pouches that accent your crotch. For “real” wrestling singlets they don’t accent your business and few have built in pouches.

What are you wearing the singlet for? Believe it or not some wear it to work out or be active and not just for fetishwear. If you are looking for one that you can work out in I would suggest looking for official wrestler singlets. Those from Adidas, Brute or Cliff Kleen. These are also the best if you want to get into wrestling. If fetish is what you’re after then the most important is to show off. Which there is nothing wrong about! It can be fun to wear one for your partner. They are as much fun to wear as they are to take off. Think of what factor is important in fetish, mesh, accent your goods, show off your body. Then make a decision on the best one.
Who makes erotic singlets? Well that list is way longer. Some of that make the h

Pistol Pete Xpose Singlet

ottest eroticwear are from N2N Bodywear, Pistol Pete, Go Softwear, Ruskin and Cellblock13. All three of these really make singlets that show off everything you have. They do it by making amazing pouches, use mesh (as cut outs and as the material for the singlet), bright colors and super sexy cuts that show off your body. More singlets get released every season. More guys have discovered how fun and amazing they are. One example of a total fetish pair is the Pistol Pete Xpose Singlet. It’s a fishnet mesh that leaves little to the imagination.

Next question is where can you get Singlets? If you’re looking for official wrestling ones you can find it occasional at sporting good stores. But there are wrestling supply stores online that can sell them to you. Also International Jock has some great ones. They sell Mattman and Brute singlets. They also sell other brands. As for the erotic they are a bit easier to find. You can get them from all the brands listed, International Jock has them and most underwear retailers do as well.
I have a few of these brands. My very first singlet was a Cliff Kleen that was low cut with high legs. I still have it and love it! I have several high cut ones as well. I have expanded my fetish collection too. One of my personal favorites is the N2N Bodywear PX Singlet. It’s super low cut and has a pouch that accents what you have. I also bought a Andre Valasco  Leopard body suit form UnderGear for $5 during one of their sales. I currently have about 7-9 singlets. Many I have had since my late teens. I am amazed how well they held up.

If you have any singlet questions let me know I will gladly answer them as a comment here, on Twitter @unbtim or email me at the site. They have been a passion for mine for years and I love all kinds from official ones to erotic.

Andrew Christian - BLOW New Years _3_How many of us make New Years resolutions each year? I would wager to say that there are quite a few of us. But how do you get them to work? Experts say make them reasonable and measurable.  I say tie your love of underwear into the resolutions. I hear you going “yeah I love undies but how do I tie them into my resolutions?

Well here are a few ways you can tie it in with your resolutions
  1. Get in better shape. How many of us have made this and broke it by January 7th? Well one way to tie underwear in is buy performance underwear for the gym and only wear it to the gym. Brands to consider are UnderArmour, Nike, Papi Cross Roads and Bike
  2. Better presentation skills. Public speaking and presenting can be nerve racking.  I was talking to a friend this week (one I didn’t know liked undies) and he said he wear thongs on days he’s giving a presentations. It takes his mind off giving it and gives him a boost in this co offense for the day. Underwear can change you attitude. Brands to consider Gregg Homme, Joe Snyder and Pistol Pete
  3. Before out going. I myself am a bit of an extrovert so I totally get wanting to be more out going. A few months ago Kyle wrote how his boss told him to put himself out there more. Little did the boss know he was wearing the Andrew Christian (Insert name). I am not saying let it hang free but wear smoke thing sexy. Maybe even wear something fetish related that could be mesh or a jock.  Brands to consider Cellblock13, Modus Vivendi or Timoteo
  4. Step up you fashion. This may sound counter intuitive but not all guys who dress wear great undies. To me there is nothing worse than a guy who looks like the stepped off the pages of GQ but only to wear cartoon boxers or something else as rediculous.  Wear something classic that shows your personality and Style. You don’t have to go crazy but great underwear is tha icing on the cake. Brands to consider 2(x)ist, C-IN2, Calvin Klein or Diessel
  5. Spice up the bedroom.  Sometimes the bedroom suffers when we get busy. We get in a rut and need to get out. So we plan evenings where is all about something new with our partners.  So we step out of our box and wear something super hot that we wouldn’t normally wear. I hope many of you would spice it up ona reg basis. That could be something skimpy, small or super fun. Brands to consider are Clever, Pikante, Andrew Christian and N2N Bodywear
These are a few suggestions to incorporate underwear into you New Years resolutions. We would love to hear how you guys incorporate undies into your resolutions

It’s time to look back on the year and evaluate it, or so they tell me. This past year UNB had been a roller coaster ride. I won’t go into behind the scenes details but I think 2014 was a year we needed. It is going to make 2015 more focused and some new things coming. But more about that in 2015!

I would say one of my favorite things we did last year was the UNB Swim Guide. This shoot went amazing and it was a fun day. I loved the final product and think we had the right models. Everyone had fun that day and it was nice and relaxing for me. Only on thing went wrong, the SD Card for my camera was the wrong speed for video. Who knew that you needed a certain class.

I am very thankful for all you guys who read and I have gotten to know. I have made some great friends through UNB and want to make even more. We have a lot planned for 2015 so stay tuned for all the great things we’ll do!

Many of us out there don’t want to wear plain solid underwear. We want to show off who we are through our underwear. We do this through unorthodox colors (pink and purple), patterns, prints and cuts. I feel underwear is just another extension of our personality. Very few see it but its awesome when someone catches a glimpse of your undies and ask “What are you wearing?” They ask because they are intrigued by it and want to find out more.

Frank Dandy is one of those companies that just get underwear is fun and creates amazing prints and patterns. Sometimes they are over the top and other times they are perfect. But, what’s over the top for me may be the perfect pair for you. Underwear is subjective and it’s great we have so many choices. Here are a few of the prints I think you guys should know from Frank Dandy.

Beast Boxer – Dark Navy

1563_7cf75b16d6-11254_1_1.jpg

Big Bro Stipe – Red

1547_88a6382f25-11254_1_1.jpgRobots – Blue

1624_d6ebc9bc85-11254_1_1.jpg

These are just a few of the prints. I hope you guys check them out and they are on sale here in the States. So you should be able to find them easily! If not find them at Dapper Drawers.

 

Let’s face it many of us, including me, make a vow every year to get into better shape. Whether we keep up with it or not is up to us! One way I have found I keep my resolutions is to buy new underwear just for working out. Then after I see results allow myself to buy more. The Papi Corss-Roads line would be a great set of underwear to wear to the gym. Not only would it motivate you to get into shape but you would look great doing it.

The line is as they say “Take your underwear to the next level of endurance and comfort with the crossroads performance series. The sleek moisture wicking fabrication offers a smooth feel, but is built to keep up with you even during the most strenuous activities”

The line has a camo and solid section but I think the camo is way cooler! It’s not a crazy camo print but super fun and if the undies show under your shorts why not give them something to look at rather than basic black or white.

The line consists of a Compression short, Jock (in camo and solid), Euro brief, Muscle Jersey, Brazilian Trunk (solid and camo), and Boxer Brief.

Compression short – Camo

Euro Brief – Solid

All of these should be at Macy’s or on the Papi website. This line I LOVE. I do plan on getting some of these for the new year. The design will keep you cool and comfy when working out or doing cross fit. So put this line on your list if you plan on getting new underwear for the new year.
