When I started UNB Jocks were mainly considered sports equipment or fetish wear, depending on who you asked. Then the fashion jock took off and the industry hasn’t been the same since. Now jocks are in the drawers of many more guys and no longer hidden in the bottom of the underwear drawer. Also, a few of our readers have told us they wear jocks a majority of the time if not all the time. So over the last few years the jock has gone from bottom to the top of underwear drawer!
Papi has created a great new jock called the Pride Jock. The Pride Jock has a waistband has a rainbow waistband. The body of the jock is made in four colors; black, blue, red or orange. Made out of a 88% Polyester 12% Spandex spandex blend. The materials will guarantee a great fit because of the 12% spandex will give you great support.
Then name, as you can guess, comes from the rainbow waist band. It has the colors of the Gay Pride and while not in all the rainbow colors of the body but has four great contrasting colors. If you ask me this jock is designed to be seen. It would be perfect under some low rise jeans with the waistband showing. I am sure we’ll be seeing this at Prides across the country.
Even if you don’t want to show this pair off it can be worn to the gym, to work, around town or just a fun night out! If you are a fan of jocks we suggest you check out the Pride Jock! Find the Pride jock on the Papi Website for $20.00
Don’t forget to take the 2013 Readers Survey to let us know how we are doing. We have the survey up till Monday. One person who answers and leaves their email will win a $25 gift card!

The Kaos line is made out of a 88% polyamide and 12% elastane fabric blend that is super soft against the skin. Fabric is made out of a see through animal print. Don’t expect it to be totally see through. It’s one of those fabrics you will have to look at to see the sheerness.
Kaos consists of the following styles: String, Boxer Briefs, Thong, Briefs and Tank. The Briefs and Boxer Briefs have a solid black waistband. The boxer briefs have a matching accent in black around the pouch. The prices range from $17.95 to $57.94 at the Gregg Homme website.

Andrew Christian, Inc. in conjunction with Island House-Key West and Manhunt.net take the A.C. “car wash” to Florida in an update to the viral Andrew Christian Freshman Car Wash video. When Andrew Christian released the original Car Wash video, no one had any idea what a stir the video would create and with millions of views it left a legacy that is not easy to surpass, but “Miami Car Wash” takes it to the next level.
The video takes place in Key West at the world famous Island House Resort. In true southern style, Andrew Christian turn up the Latin heat with super hung bareback porn star Antonio Biaggi, along with Pablo Hernandez, Diego Vena, Javier Morales and Alex Sanchez who play “gay-for-pay straight boyz” trying to make some “coins” to get back to Miami. The “boyz” start off by having an innocent car wash but soon realize that there is much more money in taking gay-for pay dares from the Andrew Christian Models…Murray Swanby, Cory Lee and Johna Myers. The boys end up playing a final prank on one of their own, Jon Varak, by paying the “boyz” to wash their entire car with Jon.
It is a beautiful day to get your car washed at Island House-Key West. Go on the Island House and Manhunt to get sham wowed and plowed!

Today’s Brief Distraction is the Andrew Christian Splash Bikini. Swim season is right around the corner. Andrew Christian has released a lot of new swimwear in the last few weeks.
I am trying to remember the last time Cocksox has released a totally new range. It’s been over a year with the Cocksox Active range. Unlike other underwear companies Cocksox doesn’t release new ranges every six moths or so, this isn’t a bad thing. Cocksox is known for making great underwear that fits a guy. They have developed quite a few signature pairs over the years. These are pairs that their core customers can’t life with out. I am one of those guys, my pair of choice is the CX01 brief is a staple in my underwear drawer. So when they release a new collection I stand up and take notice! The new collection is called Backstage!
When in Vegas in February I got a chance to sit down and talk to Cocksox. When talking to them my eyes were drawn to the new Royal, which I would say electric blue color, they added. Then they brought out the Backstage range. The colors are a little more subdued then the bright royal. The first thing I noticed was the new waist band. It’s a band that brings metal into the collection. It has the cock sock name on the left hip with a silver stripe around the band. It’s a departure from their previous collections.
After talking for a few minutes about the line they said “feel it.” I felt it and it was amazingly soft. That is because it’s made of Modal. Modal is a very soft material and feels amazing against your skin. I have several pairs of modal underwear in my collection and when I wear it it feels like I am not wearing any underwear at all! This is sure to be the case with the Backstage Collection.
Cocksox took four of it’s designs and made them even better with modal! Those designs are CX76MD Sports Brief, CX16MD Bikini Brief, CX03 Waistband Brief and the CX12MD Boxer. The range currently have three colors Black, Platinum and Gold.
In their email they sent the said this about the line ” 9 to 5 I’m a lead guitarist but I get medieval on weekends.” Nailed it. Ccoksox always has a great sense of humor! Find these pairs at the Cocksox site for $26-34. And yes we will be getting some review pairs soon!
This is a great video featuring Mike Stalker the new face of C-IN2 Underwear. He has come out of no where to be one of the top Underwear Models. This video was shot by amazing photog Rick Day.
Our Brief Distraction today is a pair of swimwear. This is a pair from Good Boy Gone Bad. They have released their line of swimwear! They always have their own unique style and the Green Waistband and white leg openings will make you stand out on the beach this summer!
The votes are in and we are pleased to announce the winner of this months Underwear of the Month! That pair is the N2N Bodywear Signature Jock. The new look and colors seems to have won over our readers. The new Signature line was released just last month and we expect it to be a big seller for them.
We could go on and on about the jock but why not hear from some of the guys who voted for the jock. What made this the stand out pair for the month? Here are a few comments:
- Love the way the N2N jock feels and looks when it’s on. Gives the perfect amount of support.
- N2N is simply the best. I love these Jocks for working out.
- “Sexy, sexy, sexy! N2N is really Comfortable to wear also and everything is made in L.A. A very good ethical company, And, let’s face it, their stuff is HOT! Manny M.”
- “Not only is N2N supportive, it’s colors are patriotic! – Bernie T”
- Because I’ve shot for DNA and I wear and believe in the brand. www.clintearhart.com
- Because N2N is the best brand on the market. Every piece they have fits men in the sexiest way possible.
- Only one winner for me, the N2N Bodywear Signature Jock, 90% Cotton and 10% Spandex mix gives them the look they deserve. As a N2N lover, the soft blend and great fit are without doubt the premier winners out of the four. Paul R
- N2N has kept a classic look and still is made as one would expect with quality the jock is comfortable first and foremost but is appealing and cradles the package and still seems to enhance the male physique it is simple that yet even those that are not into underwear or those guys unaware of choices other than the main steam Walmart brands ect. can find it appealing and wearable without feeling they have made a major change
I was only going to do about 5 comments but these were so good I had to include them. N2N has a strong following and it shows in the comments. It’s awesome to see such passion for an underwear company.
Here is why we think it won underwear of the month. N2N really knows how to mix masculinity and sex appeal together in one. The Signature Jock part of that dynamic. You get the great colors and accent on the pouch and a traditional jock styling that is designed to give great support during any activity. It’s a a design that mixes the old with the new. N2N really pays attention to how the underwear fits guys and it’s one of their greatest strengths. I say this because without a great fit, no matter how sexy the pair is, if you won’t be able to wear it all day or night. So what good is a pair of underwear that you can’t wear!
Congratulations N2N Bodyear. Check out the Signature jock at their website and while there check out the new collection. We will bring you more on the new collection soon!
Are you a fan of the color blue? If so then you need to check out the new Ombre Blue just released from C-IN2 in its Pop Color line. The Pop Color line is one that they refresh several times a year and usually the colors match some of the hottest colors around. The newest is the Ombre Blue. It’s sort of a Denim blue, or a darker blue but not quite a navy color. The pair is topped with the C-IN2 signature waitsband in an orange contrasting color. It’s a great looking pair as you can see in the picture. The Ombre Blue is available in Pop Street Jock, Pop Sport Brief , Pop Low No Show Profile Brief, Pop Profile Brief, Pop Lo Show Army Trunk, Pop Square Neck Tank, Pop Henley and Pop Deep Vee Neck.
I think it’s a really great color addition to the C-IN2 line up. Find these at the C-IN2 website.

SHOW OFF WITH PISTOL PETE XPOSE WRESTLING SINGLETSIt doesn’t get hotter than Pistol Pete’s all new totally outrageous (and a little bit x-rated) wrestling singlets at Jockstrap Central. It’s a wrestling singlet that shows off everything you’ve got made from a wide durable fishnet mesh with four way stretch not only guaranteeing a perfect fit but allowing for expansion when you spring that inevitable boner. If you’re going to own any piece of the Pistol Pete collection – this is it. It’s the pinnacle of erotic playwear design.
Here’s the details: Like we said, it’s mesh with a four-way stretch aided by the hint of Spandex which also helps maintain shape. The fishnet is the entire garment except the edging which is a contrasting white piping not only for support but added visual effect. One last thing about the mesh: It’s brilliant. Not only does it expose everything you’ve got, but the fishnet pattern creates awesome visuals playing on your every bulge, curve and crevice. We probably don’t have to tell you this, but you have to check out Jockstrap Central to see their model Trevor putting these all new singlets through their paces in a fashion only Jockstrap Central would dare too. Definitely Not Safe For Work! Shop at: http://www.jockstrapcentral.com |

Today’s Brief Distraction features C-IN2 Personal Fit Factor. We did a review of the Personal Fit Factor a few weeks ago and it’s a really great pair. This picture also features their new model Mike Stalker!
When you think of underwear companies, 2(X)ist is one of those that come to mind. They were founded in 1991 and have had continued to make great undies over the years. Each year they create underwear that fans of the brand will find different and fun. Which could mean using great colors, stripes or even an occasional print! This time they have released the Sail Collection. It has a nautical theme in both the styling and color selection. We chose the Sail Sculpted Brief is the Underwear of the Week.
Back in August 2012 I got to meet with Jason Scarlotti about what is new for 2(X)ist. This was one of the pairs he showed me at the time. One of the biggest things that really caught me was the tapered leg openings. The trim on it is smaller at the bottom and goes wider towards the top. It gives it a tapered look that really look good on a guys body. 2(X)ist just didn’t produce a pair they have done before, but paying attention to details that sets them apart. They could just produce their classic briefs in different colors and call it a day. However they know that in this industry you have to keep innovating to stay on top of mind of the underwear buying public.
Color is another area that 2(X)ist really has fun with in their designs. Over the last few years more and more companies are paying attention to what guys want. We don’t want the plain boring undies the three main colors (black, white and grey). 2(X)ist has seen this and is making undies to meet the needs of a color hungry consumer. How are they doing this? With color of course. The Sail line is available in Sour Apple (Green stripe), Pewter Grey (Grey/White stripe), Estate Blue (Blue/White stripe), Lake Blue (Blue stripe) and Brick Red (red striped). The brief has a contour pouch and the stripes going in a diagonal V pattern to show off and accent the pouch. Materials the brief is made out of is a 95% cotton/5% Spandex blend. This allows the pair to breathe and hug the body with out loosing the shape or become constricting throughout the day. Lastly each pair is topped with a matching 2(X)ist logo waistband.
Reasons this pair is our underwear of the week:
- The tapered leg trim to give a great profile
- Color stripes that accent a man’s body
- Logo Waistband
- Ultra Contour pouch
- 95% Cotton/5% Spandex blend
Find this pair in all the colors on the 2(X)ist website for $24
We have a new reviewer here at UNB. We introduce you to our newest reviewer Tyler. here is a brief intro on him:
I grew up in the middle of nowhere Pennsylvania and never really notice underwear until we went into the locker room for gym class and noticed all the different colors and styles as opposed to my plain white tighty whites. I then started to notice everyone’s underwear and what they were wearing, and still do to this day. I wear everything from boxers to thongs if they are comfortable and think its so much fun to get a new pair and try them on. I look forward to adding my voice to the review staff here at UNB.
Now on to the review
Ever since we needed to change for middle school gym I noticed that not everyone wore the same undies as I did.This progressed into high school where i wondered how some of the different jocks felt and what made them different than the ones i wore. It made me wonder how did they feel and how were they different from the ones that I wore… I guess that this curiosity has continued through today.
That feeling of gym class feeling came back to me when I opened the package. The nylon material harkened back to the shorts we all wore. I was anxious to get them on and relive those adolescence memories. A long day of meetings awaited me at work so put them on under my suit and went to work. They reminded me of a motel 8… no ballroom. They were very snug all day… almost too snug, kept wanted to have just a ½” of more material in the front to keep the team from getting crushed. They rode very low on the waist which I found enjoyable. These were much better suited to the gym. After the day I went to the gym and they were much more of what I expected. They performed much better there and kept me from flopping out. The construction is solid and the waist band kept it from moving in any direction.
The XL was covers a 36-38 but found they ran small in the pouch. The lower on the waist was more comfortable but then you are wearing these really low but at that point you might just want to go commando.
Pros:
- Comfortable
- Solid construction
- Great for the gym
Cons
- Not much room in the front
