2EROS has always been known for great swimwear. The first time I remember seeing them was with a swim collection back in 2009. 2EROS has grown over the years and has expanded that initial collection. They just released the new Victory Range. Australian rugby team colors were the inspiration for the range. As you can see by the pic the front has one vertical stripe and on the back are two chevron patterns. This pattern will accent your assets on the beach.
The Victory series:
- Yellow is the Golden Phoenix
- Blue is Red Deamon
- Green is The Dragon
- Made out of 80% Nylon / 20% Elastane
- Drawstring waist
- Low Rise fit
The Victory range is available at the 2EROS website for $60.45 AUD. See the larger pictures below.

The pair of underwear I am reviewing is the ZYLAS Boxer #3078. Before I tried these on, I enjoyed feeling the soft, shiny black fabric with partially see through stripes mixed among a bright lemon yellow pattern. The waistband was the same lemon yellow that was the pattern in the fabric with ZYLAS woven into the waistband in an almost metallic thread. There was a ZYLAS Underwear label centered on the back on the boxer. The waistband is about 1.5 inches in width and very comfortable with no binding or bunching issues during wearing. The slight pouch became quite accommodating once I had the boxer on. This boxer was pieced together to create an extremely comfortable and form fitting pair of underwear that everyone would enjoy. This boxer comes in several contrasting color combinations that anyone would love. This is my first, but not last pair of ZYLAS underwear, and I enjoyed being able to try them.
While wearing this pair of underwear, I went about my normal daily activities for work. I administered assessments to three clients and sat and stood approximately fourteen hours while wearing this extremely comfortable pair of boxers. It was a busy day filled with lots of movement and activity. The pair fit well, did not bunch up, did not ride up, and felt like I was not wearing a bulky pair of underwear due to the nice, slick fabric that never clung to my khaki pants. This pair is more of a fashion pair of underwear and I would hesitate to wear it as exercise wear, but I feel it would hold up to strenuous and rigorous workouts.
I received a size extra large in this boxer. This size should cover a 34-36 pant size. Sizing was not true to size as I am a large in the vast majority of underwear, but this is a nonissue as the company tells you that the XL is a 34-36” size.
I loved the black fabric with see through stripes and bright lemon coloring (83%Nylon, 10%Polyester, 7%Spandex) as it was stretchy and conforming to the body. The pouch was slight, but stretchy and conforming to the bits. I loved the seam that ran along the rear from the leg openings in the rear across the buttocks as I felt it provided more shape and definition to my bum. There is nothing about this pair of boxers that I did not like. Someone was thinking when they designed them as everything about them seemed geared towards pleasing the wearer.
Overall, this was a nice pair of underwear and I felt sexy and comfortable at the same time while wearing them. The design is conforming to the body and creates a fantastic profile. I have enjoyed viewing the other ZYLAS underwear options and look forward to trying some more of the pairs they have to offer.

ZYLAS furnished these for review.
Since bursting onto the scene several years ago with its revolutionary anatomical pouch design, Obviously has literally changed the face of Men’s underwear forever – providing a level of comfort never thought possible.
The remarkable journey continues with the release of Obviously’s first Bamboo Rayon range of Underwear – the EveryMan™ Range
NEW EVERYMAN™ RANGE
The EveryMan™ Range is specifically designed for EveryMan to wear Every Day and provides an affordable addition to your underwear collection.
The EveryMan™ Range is made from a custom blend of Bamboo Rayon and Lycra fabric which provides the perfect balance between comfort, freedom and support. The EveryMan™ Range comes in 5 totally new products:
- Boxer Brief 3 Inch Leg
- Boxer Brief 9 Inch Leg
- Brief
- Trunk
- Hipster Brief
Each of these products is a complete redesign from Obviously’s original Modal Anatomical Pouch products, they are engineered for even more comfort, providing a more spacious overall fit, and ensuring that you can find your favourite every day underwear, whether is Trunks or Long Leg Boxers, at an affordable price – while never sacrificing comfort or quality.
NEW “COMFORT” and “CLASSIC” FRONT CONTOUR STYLES
The EveryMan™ Range also features 2 new front contour styles – Comfort and Classic. The Comfort Style features a single panel front for an enhanced level of comfort while still retaining a slim line appearance and providing support. Think of it as a midway point between Obviously’s anatomical pouch and traditional underwear. This Comfort front contour is perfect if you desire underwear with a little more support.
The Classic Style features a classic double panel front with flatlocked double seams and a shallower front contour depth in order to achieve a classic shape with maximum support.
The complete EveryMan™ Range can be viewed on Obviously’s website on the link below:
http://www.obviously.com.au/index.php/shop/mens-underwear/everyman-range.html
NEW SUN and SURF LOGO
The EveryMan™ Range also features a new logo for Obviously Underwear. This new logo represents a return to the roots of the brand. The stylised O represents a breaking wave across a rising sun symbolising the sun and surf of the beautiful Australian beaches that have always been a big part of the brand. Symbols of fun and energy, of the relaxed Aussie lifestyle, but also of enduring power and beauty.
More information on all of these new releases and changes can be found on Obviously’s new website, so visit www.obviously.com.au today to read more about what’s going on with the world’s most comfortable underwear.
I asked a few of the guys to share some of their favorite waistbands. So we have five of the UNB staff to share which brands waistband they love and a brief explanation why they love the pair. To me the waistband is something that can set off a pair of underwear. It can really add something to the overall design.
McKillop Underwear Red Stripe – This is Alex’s favorite waistband. “It’s simple but still is something new and adds a pop of color.”
2(X)ist Speed Jockstrap – This is T’s favorite waistband. “it’s fun and sassy and the waistband has intrigue, the color just says WEEEEEEEEEEEEEE”
UnderArmour Cotton Charged Brief – This is UNBThong Guys favorite (and it’s not a thong!) “It stays in place. And its not some over thought waistband.”
Modus Vivendi 02913 Zipper Jock – This is Shane’s Favorite waistband. “I love the way the waistband has the color of the body of the underwear, the detailing, the zipper, and the MV logo placed on the side. I love the color because it’s not the everyday colors we come to expect from underwear and it’s bright and summery.”
Timoteo Double Cross Collection – This is Tim’s favorite. “Timoteo has always had great waistbands. This one I love because the way the “T “and “O” both fit in the white line around the waistband and then the two “X”s on each hip. Just fun and sets the pair off. They pay attention to details and always top the previous collections”
Today’s Brief Distraction features Go Softwear. This is from the California Colors Collection called Cal. Lifestyle. It’s getting hot out, so Quench your thirst wearing some of these sexy undies by GO SOFTWEAR
The underwear of the week this week is the Calvin Klein CK One Micro Hip Brief Golden Eye. There are so many choices each week for Underwear of the Week. This week was no different. As soon as I saw this on the International Jock site I knew we had narrowed it down to CK!
There are several reasons why we chose this pair as the Underwear of the week:
- It’s a hip brief which makes it perfect for an active guy
- The stylish pattern that is fun and not expected for a sports pair of underwear
- Fun orange/red waistband
- Fast drying material made out of 91% nylon, 9% elastane
- Retails for $22.00 at International Jock.
This is the last pair for May! Nex week after Memorial day we will have voting for our Underwear of the Month. This is your chance to vote on which is the four pairs should be given then honor! Find the Calvin Klein CK One Micro Hip Brief Golden Eye at International Jock.
We bring you our second Fetish Friday. Fetish Friday is when we bring you a pair that you won’t necessarily see at the gym. They will feature smaller cuts, mesh material and interesting colors. The pair we chose this time is the Pistol Pete Erotic Brief.
The Erotic collection is a mix of solid and mesh material. The pair we have featured is black with red trim. One of the most interesting parts of the pair is the back. There is a half mesh panel that shows off most of the back. This wraps around the sides and the pouch is solid. You won’t show off too much.
The pair is made out of a Cotton/Spandex blend. It is also available in black or white. You can find it at the Pistol Pete website for $26.50

Today’s Brief Distraction is form a brand we haven’t had on in a while. This is new Iqoniq swimwear! They date back to my blog before I even started UNB. They are a great European company. Check them out
We have teamed up with Dead Good Undies to once a month bring you some of the hottest undies and swimwear in the UK. This month we are focusing on swimwear! You may notice they have some really great pairs that we don’t always see in the States!
Deadgoodundies in the UK stock a wide range of swimwear from strings to shorts of varying shapes and sizes. Some are strictly fashion, so they’re in and gone, others can be re-ordered, so DGU is one of the few sites that stocks swimmers all year.
Bruno Banani Serpent Blue Swim Hip Short GBP 51.00 – SLINKY STYLING
We all know the jokes about trouser snakes, but what about sea serpents? This hot new Serpent Blue swim hipster has just landed at DGU from Bruno Banani.
Bruno Banani Summer Cabin Swim Hip Short GBP 39.00 – HOT PRINT
Bruno Banani are rightly famous for their quirky prints – expressed with a smile on their Summer 2013 beachwear including this short. Prints are especially popular with European guys this season.
Bruno Banani Waterproof Swim Brief GBP27.98 – STOCKED YEAR ROUND
At Deadgoodundies there is demand for swimwear year round, so the site has core styles that are constantly re-ordered. Very popular with serious swimmers and holidaymakers alike is this Bruno Banani Waterproof brief.
Ergowear X3D Swim Bikini Brief GBP26.00 – ENHANCING & Ergowear X3D Swim Thong GBP25.00 – STOCKED ALL YEAR
Stand out from the crowd – literally – in Ergowear’s enhancing designs. Stunning colours, strong emphasis on your masculinity and brilliantly comfortable to boot!
Gregg Homme Victory Swim Brief GBP51.95 – HIGH FASHION HIT
A hit this season is Gregg Homme’s sultry Victory swim brief. Clearly contoured to show off a buff beach bod. This Canadian brand has been a best seller with DGU since its launch in the UK.
Olaf Benz BLU 1200 Swim Mini Pant GBP33.00 – STOCKED ALL YEAR
If you want to do a ‘Bond’ emerging from the waves, look no further than this classically shaped short from Olaf Benz, stocked all year at DGU. Offered in black or red, also in a brief or string style in both colours.
Olaf Benz BLU 1251 Surf Pant GBP46.00 – GET COLOURFUL
Colourful prints, stripes and plaids were everywhere on summer 2013 runways. Nothing raises a smile (of the right kind) quite so much as a gorgeous check.

I thought N2N Bodywear came out with a huge line already but now the have released a line of Jammer in 17 HOT prints. I went to the N2N site to look something up and this was on the front page and was like “wait a minute.” To say I was shocked is an understatement. Let’s talk about making swimwear. I am familiar when a company does limited edition suits to do 2-4 but not 17. Some of these fabrics may look familiar to me. Making 2-5 pairs is one thing but doing it for 17 takes a lot more time.. I think N2N has out done themselves.
If you’re not familiar Jammers, they are similar to bike shorts. If you watch the Olympics, Jammers are the suits that the swimmers are now wearing. These N2N Jammers are made with a front inside drawcord, without a liner and out of a 83% nylon 17% spandex material. All pairs retail for $30! Below is a picture of some of the pairs but below the fold we will have all the pics. Find these and more at http://www.n2nbodywear.com

We just wrapped up our UNB Swimwear Coverage and wanted to bring you another great pic from Tom Cullis. This picture features his model Cory Druilliard. We love to get pics from him and think he’s one of the best out there!
If you’re in the States the “unofficial start of summer” is next week, and by that we mean Memorial Day. The weekend everyone starts heading to the beach. If you’re in any other part of the Northern Hemisphere, we are sure you have summer on your mind. So we wonder what type of swimwear do you wear?
- Do you go old school and wear board shorts? Like these Sauvage Boardwalk Boardshorts
- Do you want to show off a little and wear swim briefs aka speedos? Like the N2N Varsity Bikini
- Do you want to show off your body but not too much with trunks/square cuts? Like the Timoteo Surfer
- Do you want to show off big time and wear swim thongs? The Clever Swim thong
Take our poll and let us know. We’ll post the results this weekend!
I reported from Vegas earlier this year that colors are going to be big! Timoteo was one of those collections that proved this statement to be true. The new Pop Out line has been released in some bright fun spring/summer colors. The colors are Sunshine Yellow, Jade, Kelly Green and Candy Pink . These are more on the pastel end rather then super bright primary colors.
The pairs have a classic Timoteo name waistband in black to off set the color. Then they are accented with white piping around the legs and pouch. It’s great to see some fun colors back in men’s underwear
Available in jocks, briefs and boxer briefs. They aren’t on the Timoteo site yet, but you can find it at some of your favorite stores soon!
