First its awesome to see Jack Adams using model Alex Misnky. We interviewed him this past year and think he’s an amazing guy. We hope to see much more of him in the underwear market! It’s been a while since we covered Jack Adams and I think we have mentioned this pair but need really did a post on it!
Jack Adams has a really great style. The use of the colors and trim contrasts is something they really excel at, also the design. I think their designs are ones that accent a guys body. The lines of the trim really highlight areas you want to show off. Jack Adams has their own take and style for men’s underwear.
The title may confuse you but it’s a jock brief. Made our of really breathable material (78% Nylon; 22% Spandex) and in several color combinations. Each combination has the signature dip in the front of the pouch. These would be great for working out or another sporting activity.
They are available at the Jack Adams site for $26.00

McKillop is one who’s not afraid to speak his mine. I talked to him briefly about this collection last night. It’s a way to protest the Russian treatment of Gay and Lesbians in Russia. They created a blog To Russia With Love. Which, Ryan told me, each day the pics will get more revealing.
From McKillop:
“For the month of Feb. we have decided to create a mini collection (Brief$40,Jock$20,Boxer$30 + S/H). We used a red and white printed fabric that is reminiscent to Eastern European/Russian design and we have turned this into a little bit of an awareness campaign for LGBT community in Russia.
Of course the images do not reflect that directly but we have opened up a blog just for the month to post links about the Olympics, The LGBT community/ their laws and treatment but mainly there are a months supply of some really hot photos. Dean Monroe helped us with dawning his pretty face in our undies and it seems to be getting a lot of attention.
We are running this product and campaign for only this month”
Don’t miss this before they are gone, this is a limited series from McKillop. See pics of the line below

First let me start off saying this pair maybe out of stock. But, there are other colors than the limited edition pair. We got a lot of Andrew Christian to review. Over the next few weeks you’ll see them. I choose this pair because it was limited edition and for Valentine’s Day.
Andrew Christian to me makes really great underwear. His Almost Naked and Trophy Boy are some of my favorite undies. They fit me great and are made for a guy with extra up front.
There are several reasons why I choose this pair to review. The first was for the color. The Valentine’s Day inspired pair is red/pink with white mesh in the back. I don’t have any fun pairs for Valentines Day. The second reason is the pouch is a separate piece and allows easy access. It seems to be a trend to create just pouches that either aren’t attached or just a pouch.
I said above I chose this, knowing I didn’t like pairs with pouches that detach or enhance. When I got to put this on I realized this and thought, “oh no I maybe in trouble.” I slide the pair on and the leg openings were a little tight. It made me wonder if it was too tight through out the day. After I pulled it up, it didn’t feel too tight. I just hoped it would last! Second, I slid my junk through the opening and put it in the pouch. The pouch really worried me. I was worried I would all our and through the day it would require constant adjustment.
As the day went on, I kind of forgot that I was wearing pouch underwear. The initial fears didn’t come through. The pouch was supportive and held me in place all day. I was really impressed. They did a great job on this pouch. The bonus was going to the bathroom all you had to do was lift the pouch up and then put it back down. Next the leg openings didn’t feel tight. I have had pairs in the past that drove me crazy and had to go!
I wore this pair running errands. I knew this would put the pouch to the test. It was about 6 hours of running around and driving. About an hour in I forgot about my concerns and just enjoyed the pair. It amazed me how well the pair felt. There was just the right amount of tension to keep the pouch in place all day. The mesh in back was a great touch too. Its sexy but not over the top.
Pros:
- Fun Valentine’s Color
- Great fit
- Loved the mesh panels, sexy for Valentine’s day
Cons:
- Pull off pouch – some may not like the fit
- If you have large thighs the pair may be too tight
Ratings:
- Fit – 8
- Sizing – 8
- Construction – 9
- Styling – 9
- Daily Performance – 8
- Overall – 8.4
This pair was furnished for review by Andrew Christian. It may not be available but find similar pair in different colors on the Andrew Christian site.

I asked our guys, what you are planning to wear for Valentine’s Day. We have a mix of single/dating and gay/straight so where are what some of us will be wearing.
Alex – I’ll be wearing my new Andrew Christian punted tighty whitie jock. It’s a new sexy take on an old classic. Just the fun valentines day needs!!
Shane – Being the special day that it is to celebrate love and infatuation, I will be wearing the color of love – RED! I will be wearing the newest pair of red underwear that I have added to my collection, the Modus Vivendi metallic loose fit boxer. It is simply wonderful! I love the stripes being dark and bright red with a slightly metallic sheen. They fit great and look great. These are not your dad’s boxers. They make me feel confident and look great on. Love them!
T – I’ll be wearing the Gregg Homme Pump Up Thong, just in case I bump into a guy who wants to start a whirlwind romance then and there 🙂 I’ll be wearing good undies, supportive, but still scandalous.
John – Having been in a relationship now for over 8 years, Valentines Day is just another day that I get to spend with the guy that I love. As for my underwear selection… I think I will be in a jock. My partner loves when I wear a jockstrap, so since the day is about showing him how much I love him, that is the way I will go. I have a cute new pair of Andrew Christians that will be just perfect. It is a pair of his dark red Teaser Air Jock. I love these because they are super comfy and light weight with plenty of room so they are great to wear all day, yet sexy and playful so that what ever happens that night is just as exciting.
Tim (ME) – I”ll be traveling so I won’t have any romantic dinners unless you count having one on a Southwest flight 32,000 feet in the air with 200 of my closest friends. I am going to wear my John Seivers California Gold Brief. This is one of the best briefs I have for traveling. Will anyone see it, NOPE just me but I’ll be in Vegas that night so how bad could it be?
ES Collection has a great new line of active wear. This is part of the new collection that includes the runners as well. Enjoy the picture
