From now until Sunday, January 9th (midnight EST) for every order at Jockstrap Central with a product total of $40 or more, they will throw in a free jockstrap with your order. While supplies last, the free jockstrap will be one of their Wolf or Omtex Athletic Supporters (If they run out, you’ll still get a free jock.) At the end of checking out, you’ll be asked for your color and size preference.

Wolf and Omtex jockstraps are phenomenal and if you don’t have one already, this is a great chance to get one to “try” out. We’re sure you’ll be hooked!

* Due to limited supply, Jockstrap Central

will only be giving away one free jockstrap per order. Your order total must be $40 before shipping charges and any applicable taxes.”

This is the first chance we had to review McKillop U/W underwear.  I was really excited.  Ryan has done great work in the area of jocks.  He’s taken a classic pair of men’s underwear and made it his own.  I love to see this from a company.

They have been around for over a year.  He’s taken jocks and added colors and one of the best pouches I have worn in some time.  The pouch is stretchy and fits you like a glove.  This was my favorite part of the review.

The construction is also top notch.  You can tell time and care was used and they wanted to make undies that last and fit awesomely.  The materials will hold up for every day use, a night on the town, or even worn during sporting events!

The pouch on these is made of mesh.  Mesh is a big trend in men’s underwear.  I don’t see that trend disappearing soon since it has really taken off.  I loved that he uses all colors of mesh and not just black.  He’s stepped outside the box and created something great.  The mesh, however, was also my only problem.  You may say the seam would be the problem but he’s thought ahead and put the seam on the outside.  Very smart thinking, if you ask me!  The mesh simply annoyed me throughout the day.  I am not sure if it was a personal preference or the materials.

I wore them all day and at certain times, not all the time, it sort of made things uncomfortable.  These maybe the perfect date pair if you are looking for something sexy and fun.  I will wear them but not for all day use.

I get another chance to review Equmen!  This brand has been around for about two years and seems to be ever growing.  They were one of the first in shaping/performance underwear.  The purpose of the brand is to make you look slimmer and give you better posture.

I first have to apologize for the lateness of this review.  I received them in early November and the package got misplaced.  I had to search the house to find it, which I did and all was well.

The two pairs I’m reviewing are the singlet (tank) and trunk.  I was glad to try out the singlet.  The fit is very well and does the same as the t-shirt.  It really does give you great posture.  When I wear it, I notice a difference in how I stand.  The shirt makes you stand straight as well.  It’s nice because there are times when I don’t have the best posture.  The other great thing about it is that no one notices you have it on.  It’s your secret!

The trunks were very well fitting as well.  I normally don’t care for trunks/boxer briefs but these were well made and fit everything snuggly.  I wore them out to a busy day and they kept their shape and gave me great support.
