Denim is not a fabric you think of when it comes to men’s underwear. Cotton, yes, Nylon, yes, spandex/lycra blends yes, but denim, not really. However, Modus Vivendi is hoping to change that assumption. If you aren’t familiar with the brand, they aren’t afraid to take risks, because in previous collections they have used chains, sheepskin, and more in their underwear. Granted the fabric is not a denim but more a denim look.
Denim was a fabric originally designed for cowboys. Because of its durability and resistance to wear. Jeans started to be used to make clothing for workers. Nowadays jeans are one of the most recognizable fashion items.
Modus Vivendi presents the denim collection. Whole range of new modern fetish must have underwear! All designs made of jean printed material, consisting of viscose and elastan. The styles also have a leather look front detail and adjustable cotton cords.
The collection includes jockstraps, briefs and boxers and all are available in black and blue denim.
Are you a fan of 2(x)ist? Do you want to try some of the newest styles, such as Primal, (X)treme, or the new swimwear? If so then head over to 2(x)ist site, and no code is needed, all prices on sale will be marked in red on the site!
Do you like underwear that is fun and not something for every day? Then you need to check out the new McKillop Limited Edition Jocks. They are made out of vinyl and and Denim.

Because of the structure of the fabric is creates a massive bulge compared to our other products. Our vinyl is a fun collection of unique one of a kind pieces to complement your underwear collection.”
There are 14 different styles. They are both jocks and pouches. McKillop has been very busy making some really fun and nice undies. Prices for the jocks and pouches are $30-31. These are only available for a limited time and only for summer so don’t miss them!
Today’s Brief Distraction is from Mundo Unico Store. This is part of the lifestyle images for the new collection. Unico is known for thier great fit and incredible colors.
Timoteo, the Los Angeles based men’s athletic-wear brand catering to stylish men seeking the ultimate in comfort and design, unleashes its next generation fitness brief this summer, Timoteo SPORT 2.0. Made from a cotton/spandex blend, the collection features the season’s steamiest colors in contrasting designs (white against orange & blue trim, royal blue against varsity green trim, black against red and black against striker blue trim) in four bold styles: the SUPER LOW, the SCOUT BOXER BRIEF, the best selling ATHLETE JOCK and the SOCCER JOCK. All styles feature Timoteo’s contemporary custom-designed waistband. Timoteo SPORT 2.0 is available now at specialty stores, online retailers and at Timoteo.net
“SPORT 2.0 is the new-and-improved version of one of our best-selling collections ever,” said Timoteo Ocampo, Creative Director and Co-Owner of Timoteo. “Similar to the original line, briefs are specially geared towards the athletic guy who spends a great deal of his day working out in the gym. He drinks protein shakes, wears weight lifting gloves and belts. The SPORT 2.0 collection is one more tool to help him reach his full fitness potential… and look damn good while doing it.”
Before launching his own label, Ocampo worked as a designer; first for XOXO and later at Baby Phat, where he helped launch the brand with Russell Simmons and Kimora Lee. He names Yves Saint Laurent as one of his greatest influences.
“Our customers are constantly offering their feedback and what we hear most is they are bored of off-the-shelf underwear with no style,” continues Ocampo. “They want underwear that has a personality, is sporty, and available in a wide assortment of fresh, fun colors.”
The demand for SPORT 2.0 is so great, the line has already begun shipping to retailers in the UK, Russia, Mexico, New Zealand, Australia, Japan as well as the USA and Canada.
“As the economy gets stronger and there is more consumer spending towards personal items, we are seeing a demand for a more diverse underwear drawer in men’s closets,” agrees Joel Johnston, CEO and Co-Owner of Timoteo, who predicts SPORT 2.0 will be merely the beginning of the label’s sports offerings. “Men have more money to spend and they are spending it on quality designs.”
In addition to SPORT 2.0, Timoteo is unveiling a second underwear line for summer 2012 called Classic Luxury Mesh, set to release June 1st.
“As an underwear designer it is my job to keep the designs fresh and unique and ahead of the curve,” Ocampo says.
Timoteo launched ten years ago as a small storefront in West Hollywood, CA that manufactured select fashion pieces for men. It has since evolved into a fun and hip brand that produces a full line of product across multiple categories including, underwear, swim wear, denim and sportswear.

Today’s Brief Distraction is from Good Boy Gone Bad. These were sent to us from GBGB Wear! We hope you enjoy these pictures and we have a few more to share with you!
Today is Baskit $12 Tuesday. This week’s pair is the Pure Boxer Brief. This boxer brief is 100% certified organic cotton. This isn’t the only thing on sale, there is swimwear, the pure line and more on sale. Just go to the Baskit Site and go under specials.
The pair I am reviewing is the N2N Bodywear Air Trunk. This is part of the new N2N collection that they just released. The pair is made out of60% polyester / 32% rayon / 8% spandex. Which make it very breathable and a great pair for summer.
The first look at this pair, I noticed like the previous pair I reviewed for the Luxe line, was there was no elastic in the legs. Since I had experience with the Luxe, I hoped that it would be a similar fit and it basically was, with out anything falling out.
The fabric was some of the best. Here in the south we are getting supper hot and there’s nothing worse then having underwear that makes you hotter. This pair really breathed and kept me super comfy through out the day. The sizing was very good and I have never had any issues with sizing with any pair I have received from N2N.
The new waistband they created for the Air line is super sexy to me. I love the thin band with the N2N branding. This is carried over in all styles in the Air line.
My only complaint is that I wished it had a little more support in the pouch. It does have a nice pouch and things don’t fall out or move around too much. However this is a minor complaint. I will definitely wear these again and put them in my underwear drawer!
Pros:
- Very breathable
- Great thin waistband
Con:
- Like a more supportive pouch

A couple months ago, I was alerted of this small new website called CheapUndies.com by none other than the Underwear News Briefs blog. I was instantly intrigued, because well…cheap and undies for me sadly don’t always get to go together. I am a fan of nice underwear, but as a young budding circus artist, I am usually found perusing the sale racks only, finding an awful lot of certain brands, and unable to afford the loftier brands.
Enter Cheapundies.com, this company is grounded in the “woot.com” One Deal One Day mold that brings you ONE item per day at a really discounted price. What I saw when I first clicked is a man’s body and a woman’s body, each modeling the certain pair of undies on sale that day. The pair of underwear I saw that day was probably 60-75% off its original price, coming in at roughly $5. I was in shock, and started to check out the other costs involved (where’s the catch). After snooping around, I discovered the only other fee is the one for shipping, which is a very reasonable $5 for regular post to my location. I wasn’t ready to chip in $5 shipping for a $5 dollar pair of undies just yet. I know it’s only $10, but paying the same amount in shipping as the product just felt odd to me.
For a moment let’s go back to how the site works. CheapUndies spends most of their time (when not shipping undies off to happy customers) sourcing underwear companies that are willing to sell a huge amount of one pair of undies to them for a very low price. This low price for CheapUndies allows them to extend the deal to you, and by spreading out the deals among many underwear brands, no single brand is getting short-changed. So basically, each day CheapUndies gets a huge haul of one pair of undies for incredibly cheap. This is where the magic kicks in.
What happens if not ALL of the pairs of undies are gone by the end of the 24 hours? Well, those undies go into the part of the website called Last Chance Deals. These are not on the One Day time restriction anymore, they are the excess, still priced at their extremely discounted rate. And that, my friends, is where my magic moment happened.
Last week, I fell in love with the pair that was being advertized for the day, but I wanted to maximize the undies to shipping ratio, so I went into the Last Chance Deals, and looked around for other pairs to supplement my main pair, to mollify my worries about the shipping. I ended up getting 3 pairs of undies + shipping to the tune of $20.00. For your information, I got one brief, a thong, and a boxster, and all are incredibly wonderful to wear. I placed my order at around 11pm on May 17th, and they arrived May 21st. So, for $20, I got 3 pairs of quality, well fitted and designed undies, plus shipping that arrived in about 3 days, from CheapUndies.com… I rest my case.
