103-204 Black editedMale Power doesn’t always make super sexy underwear. They have been known to make some great underwear you could wear to the gym. The Bamboo line is one that comes to mind that did very well for them. The newest line is the Rayon Swag line. It gives you the feel of silk without the price of silk!

Here is the write up from Male Power:

Men who like the look and feel of silk, but not the cost, will really enjoy the Rayon Swag collection from Male Power.

Rayon, nylon and spandex combine to create highly attractive undergarments that are sensationally soft and stretchable. The fabric, in either black or taupe, contains a subtle texture and a hint of sheen. Rayon Swag comes in five classic styles, including racer back tank top, mini short, wonder bikini, wonder thong and posing strap.

The classically styled wonder bikini and thong offer full, round uplift pouches. The mini short pairs perfectly with the tank top. None of the garments contain any exposed elastic.

There is a new store on the market and it’s from an underwear blogger. So we had to interview him and talk about his journey form blogger to retailer. Also find out what his store is all about!

So what made you start an underwear store after being an underwear blogger?

Ever since I was a young boy I’ve always known I’ve had a passion for men’s underwear. Underwear to me is so attractive. I founded UndieFan.com when I was 18 and it’s been a passion of mine ever since. Blogging for so long made me realize that I love independent underwear brands. It also helped me learn that my favorite style is the jockstrap. I founded HisJock.com to help me express my passion for underwear, jockstraps, independent brands, customer service and retail. I get so excited when I receive an order that I drop whatever I’m doing to pack that order, and ship it out. As a customer for so long I know how excited I am to get my undies in the mail.

Tell us about your store? What brands do you currently carry?

His Jock focuses mostly on independent brands and jockstraps. If you love a good jock then you have to check out our brands. We currently carry 2EROS, Cell Block 13, Colt, N2N Bodywear, Papi, Pistol Pete, Supawear, Timoteo, and Todd Sanfield. We also plan on adding more very shortly.

What sets you apart from other retailers on the market?

Any customer can contact me direct. I’m willing to help any customer at anytime, personally. Like I said above I drop whatever I do to get a new order out. I love talking to customers about underwear and helping them with their needs. Also I’m open to hearing about new brands we should pick up based off what customers want!

Who are your current favorite underwear companies?

Currently I’m obsessed with the new Todd Sanfield Collection. I love the colors they used and each style has a great fit. Not to mention that the fabric is uber soft. I’m also very obsessed with anything that PUMP! comes out with. Hopefully we will pick them up at our store sometime soon.

I’d love to offer all your readers Free shipping with the discount code “UNB”. Only applies to U.S. orders at His Jock.

Modus Vivendi swimwear 2014

Modus Vivendi always creates super fun underwear and swim. The new collection has a denim look. As you can tell by the silver pair above! Styles that are in this collection are a boxer, brief and low cut brief. The styles are available in gold, silver and khaki.  My personal favorite is the Low Rise Brief, this is a true bikini and something we definitely need in swimwear.

I think this is definitely a fun collection. The metallic material is shiny but not over the top like some metallic fabrics can be! Being just released these should be at your favorite retailers soon or on the Modus Vivendi Site.

Modus Vivendi (http://www.e-modusvivendi.com) is proud to announce the release of its new swimwear collection 2014. Inspired by the eternal elements of the Greek summer, the collection embraces the gold of the sun, the silver flash of the sea and the deep, tranquil greens of the forests and mountains. Available in luminous gold, shiny silver and khaki, this first part of Modus Vivendi’s new swimwear is the perfect start to a dazzling summer – Greek style! 

lanai-red-0It is now swim season and it’s time to spend as much time by the beach/pool as possible. I would totally agree with this but here in the ATL it’s been rainy and cloudy every time you turn around. So you can wear swimwear but it hasn’t been ideal conditions. So I used the Teamm8 Lanai swim shorts to hang out in one day by the pool. This was the first time I ever wore Teamm8. So I was excited to give them a try.

I will say it’s not normally the style I would wear. This pair has a very retro look, it reminds me of something from the 70’s/80’s, and yes I was old enough to remember them! So I was a little apprehensive about them. Back in the day I hated these types of swimwear and hoped that I wouldn’t have a bad flash back! But, this is Teamm8 and they make out of modern materials/fabrics, so I should have known this wasn’t going to happen.

I wore these to a pool that really isn’t swim brief friendly. It was a friends neighborhood pool, but I did keep my swim briefs under them, I like the extra support. As I relaxed in the pool and hung out this did fit great. The color got a little big of attention because it’s not the usual navy, white or red most swim trunks are. A few people complimented me on them and asked who they were. I forget you talk to people outside of the underwear/swimwear world, most of the population hasn’t heard of Teamm8. Well I am changing it for them an other brands.

Back to my day. These dried pretty fast and didn’t bunch or bind when going form pool to laying out and such. One of my biggest gripes in swimwear are those that don’t dry fast. I hate sitting in wet clothes for over an hour! The 100% nylon dried pretty fast so I was super happy.

The color I received was Watermelon. You are going to make a statement in this pair. It has a small palm tree print that alternates black and white tree. The pair has white piping around the lets and seams. It also includes a drawstring waist. Which is pretty standard for swimwear. If the Watermelon is not your style check out the mint (green) pair.

As for sizing, definitely pay attention to sizing charts. It was a little tight on me, just because I have gained a few pounds. Which I’m not happy about but I plan on going back down. However, that said you can get the right size if you check out the sizing guide. Their chart is easy to find, a button next to the size selection brings it up!

Pros:

  • Great construction
  • Attention getting color
  • dries fast

Cons;

  • retro design some guys may not like
  • Colors maybe too bold for some guys

Ratings

  • Fit – 9
  • Sizing – 9
  • Construction – 9
  • Styling – 8
  • Performance – 9
  • Overall 8.8

Teamm8 furnished this pair for review. You can find it on their site for $64 AUS

We are bringing you a new fitness column. We have had them off and on the last few years but have a great guy now wanting to share his info with you. The first column is about a 30 Day Squat Challenge:

Spring is here and summer is upon us.  It is that time we start wearing shorts and swim briefs (especially if you are take the swim briefs challenge).  Get way to get your legs in shape for the summer and you need to start now.  Weather you are new to fitness or a fitness buff this challenge (and squats in general) is good for all!  Don’t care who you are everyone likes and wants a nice firm shapely bubble but.

The squat is one, if not, the best exercise you can do for your body.  It works the whole body not just your legs.  It activates the back to stay tall in the movement lots of core stability to move and a whole lot of legs get shaped up and stronger.

Attachment-1 2

How to do this challenge:

The number of squats as your progress maybe a little daunting but do not worry.  You have all day to do them.  You can do 20 – 25 at a time though out the day.  Another nice thing is you don’t need to go to the gym to do this. You can do your squats anyway you can stand up, at home, on an elevator between floors, at the beach, etc.

  1. Anchor you heals into the ground in an athletic stance with  the feet slightly turned out (athletic stance has some variation depending on your hip flexibility and mobility.  Good rule is anywhere from hip width to a toe heal wider on both legs).
  2. Keep your torso as tall as possible (chest lifted) through out the movement. Shoulder blade pulled together and core engagement and working
  3. Press your hips back (hip hinge) to start the movement (as if you were sitting in a chair behind you).  This is how you will squat down by pressing your hips back. Do not start the movement from you knees. You should work to keep your torso and shines as vertical as you can throughout the movement.
  4. Squat depth varies from person to person.  In the perfect world ass to ankles.  Each person’s hip and ankle flexibility will dictate how long then can go.  Aim for a depth between your thigh bone being parallel and ass to ankle is get.

Things to think about (it’s a lot but you have 30 day to work on it)

  • focus on the muscle you are using.  Keep everything strong and engaged
  • don’t rush through the movement
  • breath! inhale on the down phase exhale on the effort or push phase
  • on the up phase think of pulling the floor or ground apart as you stand
  • squeeze your glutes (butt) at the top to finish
  • arms either straight out from your shoulders parallel to the ground or hands on your hips for balance.

xpose-jocksTOTALLY EXPOSED WITH THE ALL NEW PISTOL PETE XPOSE JOCKS AT JOCKSTRAP CENTRAL

Be prepared this summer, with your own personal air conditioning – in the form of these new wide mesh jockstraps from Pistol Pete that just hit the shelves of Jockstrap Central. Just like their best selling singlets, the Xpose Jockstraps feature a sexy and very revealing wide mesh pouch – unlike Justin Bieber and Rob Ford, sometimes being over exposed is a good thing. Here’s the details:

The pouches on these jocks are constructed of Pistol Pete’s signature wide mesh fabric and includes a center seam and outer piping for structure and support. It’s fairly generous with a bit of stretch to accommodate most guys. Our model Josh is pretty well endowed (as you can see from our photos) with both large balls and shaft and he just loved wearing the Xpose Jocks.

Although the pouch is the real star, the waistband is pretty spectacular too: It’s sturdy, plushed for comfort and 1 1/4 inches wide with the highly stylized Pistol Pete “P” logo up front and center which compliments the almost Aztec motif running throughout the rest of the waistband. Finally, two masculine 1 1/8 inch leg straps complete this jockstrap.

The Xpose jocks are available in four flavors – black, blue, red or white. Be sure to check out Jockstrap Central’s website for their countless and always uncensored photos.

Also, if you act quickly (before Sunday, June 8th) Jockstrap Central is offering free USA shipping or discounted world shipping on all orders of $20 or more. Just buy one of the new Xpose Jocks or any one of most of their fashion or fetish jocks and you’ll get the free or discounted shipping. Get Shopping

RAVE 0304Swim season is in full swing. Since Memorial Day last month every weekend is now prime swimwear days. Granted, that is if the weather cooperates! Quarter Homme has released a new swim brief called Rave. The Rave is simple designed but fun pair that they just released.

Not every pair of swimwear needs to shout look at me! It doesn’t need to be made out of wild patterns or bright colors. Those suits have their place but I think every guy needs some basic designed swimwear in their drawer. And by basic I don’t mean boring. Simplicity can be pretty awesome.

The new Rave is a swim briefs with a solid body color and a contrasting trim on the waistband and leg openings. The colors available are White/Blue, Red/White and Black/Orange. My personal favorite is the white/blue. There is something about white swimwear that makes people cringe. You can show off everything in swim if it’s the wrong material. Speaking of the material it is body hugging and fast drying. There is nothing I hate more than swim that takes too long to dry.

This pair is perfect for those looking for a great, classic styled swim brief. Not only is the styling great the price is even better. The retail is $27.90. Which for a pair of swim is amazing. You can spend anywhere from $25-over 100 bucks on a pair of men’s swimwear. You can find this and more at the Quarter Homme site
