Believe it or not I have never had a pair of Candyman Underwear. I hear you saying “NO WAY” but I could never fit in them before this year. Candyman is known for making very sexy, fun and erotic underwear. This is not the undies you wear to the gym or maybe even every day. But for a date night they would be amazingly fun to wear. The pair I have to review is the Candyman 9695 Brief. The brief is white with a gold waistband and a kind of lace up back.
I decided to take a chance and wear it to work. How many times have we all bought “date night” underwear and they last about 2-3 hours before its time they come off one way or another. My initial impressions were I may not like this pair. But, I was keeping an open mind. I usually like pairs with a more defined pouch and hoped it wouldn’t bind as the day went on. Also the back is a lace up and open and that gave me other room to worry. As the day wore on the material, 93% Polyester, 7% Spandex, held up pretty well. I wish it breathed more through the day but it really didn’t bother me too bad. After I put them on and my jeans over I forgot I was wearing a more “erotic” pair of undies. Granted that said I wouldn’t wear them to the gym or do anything super active, but for every day wear or lounging they would be fine.
Sizing was pretty good. If you follow their sizing chart you should be fine. Note that the XL isn’t a 38 or 40 but size 36. So this is smaller then American sizes we are used too. So make sure you follow the sizing guide, if you don’t you maybe sorry. The XL fit me pretty well for a 36 waist.
Overall I liked the pair and will definitely wear it again. I loved the gold waistband and thought it set the pair off nicely. There is a big trend in men’s underwear to bring in metallic accents. The lace up back I thought would just drive me insane through out the day really wasn’t noticeable. I will say it surprised me and became one of my favorite features. My biggest complaint is I wish the material were a little more breathable. If you are super active this will not be something you will like.
I will say I’m enjoying trying different undies now that I can fit in them. Candyman will be on my list and this will be the first of many pairs I plan to own from them. I mean it bites when you can’t wear undies you want to try. Candyman just has fun with undies and it shows in their designs.

Today’s Brief Distraction is another featuring model Justin Coale. We will be seeing a lot more of him coming up. We hope to be working with him soon as well!
I’m reviewing Candayman futuristic zipper brief. It’s a black and metallic silver and blue color block brief with a zipper opening on the left Title: Review – Candyman 9696 Futuristic Zipper Brieffront. The label says it’s made from 97% polyester and 3% lycra. Despite metallic appearance, all parts of it have the stretch due to the lycra. This brief is available in three different metallic colors and retails for $25.
Just out of the package, it looks like a fun, flirty brief suitable for undressing after a date—but maybe not the best for a workout. I have several pair of underwear made by Candyman that I love, due to their tongue and cheek approach to underwear, and that often allow tantalizing peaks of skin to show, as this one does.
I usually like to put review underwear through their paces by wearing all day at work, and then to a workout. However, given the polyester material (which I doubted would breathe well) and flirty style, I thought this would be more appropriate for a date (and then I could get my date’s reaction as well). So I put them on in the morning before work and planned to wear them all day through my dinner date that night.
I put them on first thing in the morning. They seemed to fit to size, although with my big butt, I was sticking out a bit at the top (see pics). I went off to my office for work. Things went well for the morning, but I could feel them not breathing well by lunchtime. I’m glad I did not wear them to the gym, as they began to irritate my skin the longer the day went on. By the time I got home, I was ready to take them off, take and shower and change. Unfortunately, my date never got to see them on me, (but he liked the way they looked on the floor).
Candyman does have a good feel for American sizing. I wore a medium and it fit my waist well. There was ample room up front for the plumbing. I could have used a little more material in the back, but if this underwear is more appropriate for a date, perhaps you might want to be cracking out a bit. With the zipper undone, there is a nice peek-a-boo of flesh and this gives you a bit more breathing space in the back. I do wish the zipper was on both sides, as this would give you a bit more flexibility.
I like the cheeky style of Candyman, and this Zipper brief does not disappoint on that front. The flexible metal look is sleek and modern (I can see it going with a sexy Tin Man costume next Halloween), and the peek a boo zipper is neat touch. Incidentally, the zipper is plastic and did not pinch my skin once despite playing with it many times while I wore it. The waist sizing was dead on, and though I could have used a bit more material in the butt area, if the goal is have someone take them off you ASAP, then that effects works.
I’m not a bit fan of this polyester blend, as it does not breathe well, and becomes sticky after a whole day. However, if you wear this just for an evening date, it would be fine. I wish they could find a way to produce the shiny fabric in a material that does not trap in moisture—that truly would be futuristic.
I like the current direction in which Candyman in going—many of their new products are wearable all day and make good additions to an underwear collection—while still maintaining their playful side. I would put the Futuristic Zipper Brief in the category of “datewear”—something to wear for less than four hours and are cute enough for your date to want to help you out of them.

The Underwear of the Month voting is in and the winner is the Geovanny Mesh Brief. This was a very close race, prob one of the closest we have had in the history of Underwear of the Month. When we have an underwear of the month, I usually have a feeling on which will win and this was an upset! I think it’s great for the underdog to win sometimes and Geovanny did just that. I say that because I wasn’t sure if Geovanny was a brand most knew but I guess you guys did and voted to make it our Underwear of the Month!
Here are why some of you voted for the Mesh Brief
Now go check out this pair at the Geovanny Underwear site. It’s available in white and black for $24.99. While there check out the new site! Lastly, see the unedited picture below!
Today’s Brief Distraction features an up and coming model. This is Justin Coale! He’s a relatively new model on the scene and you may seen his pics on Facebook. I got the chance to talk to him the other night and after talking to him, you will see a lot more of him soon! We hope to work with him as well soon!
It’s been a while since we selected a jock for our Underwear of the Week. This week we selected the Papi Stretch Jock to be our underwear of the week. Jocks should be fun and functional. The Stretch Jock comes in two different color packs. That’s right we said packs because they are sold in 2 packs! So you will get to double your value. The colors available are Blue/Black or Blue/Red. The waist band has the corresponding color as an accent.
Papi makes great jocks. I have some of the three pack jocks they have on the market and they are some of my favorites. These live up to the Papi tradition and if you are a jock fan you will definitely put these in your collection.
Reasons this pair is our Underwear of the week:
Find these at Jockstrap Central for $20.00 per two pack. This post contains affiliate links for Jockstrap Central.

The 2013 Stretch Jocks have arrived at Jockstrap Central. They are not only stylish but so comfortable you won’t want to wear anything else. Luckily Papi knew you’d feel that way so they bundled them in twos so you’d have one to wear while the other is in the wash. New for 2013 are two new bundles – either a black and a blue jock combo or a red and a blue jock combo.
Here’s the details: The Pouch is contoured and constructed of two panels with a center seam. It’s almost all cotton with a hint of spandex not only for a better fit but to provide an extra touch of soft comfort. The 1 1/4 inch comfort waistband is the perfect blend of sturdiness and stretch with a high thread-count weave forming a stylish stripe running around the waistband with a front centered Papi logo. The 3/4 inch soft elastic legstraps provide the support to keep things in place yet stretchy enough to prevent the cutting in you find in many other jocks. Once again, this is a 2 pack. You get two stylish and comfortable Papi jockstraps for one great price.” Shop at: http://www.jockstrapcentral.com |

We are two days away from the end of voting for the Underwear of the Month for April. Make sure you get your voice heard! Should C-IN2, aussieBum, Geovanny or Quarter Homme be crowned the winner? Go vote now!
2(X)ist has just released their new prints! The one pictured is one of my favorites I have seen from them and this collection. That pair is the Bandana print. The waistband is solid but the main body is like a bandana. It comes in both red or blue. They also have a no-show brief and no-show trunk. To me it’s a really great pattern they are using on both. Its so much fun.
The other prints in the line are Southwest, Zig-Zag and Square. The best thing about this line is if you don’t like a print like the Bandana, the Southwest and Zig-Zag both have a patterned waistband rather and solid color fabric. So you get a touch of print without going to crazy.
If you want to go the other way check out the square pattern which is fun print where the pattern is made out of squares. It looks really cool up close. It’s definitely a different print that you haven’t seen in underwear before.
Like the Bandana line each one has a No-Show Brief and No-Show Trunk. The brief retails for $18 and trunk is $24
We hope you are having a great week and this is another great picture from Eric Battershell fitography. It features Michael Rocco wearing the strip brief in blue. We hope you enjoy!
