We are joined by our resident bisexual stud Patrick. We sit down to have a real and honest discussion about issues facing bi guys in the world of underwear and also touching on issues straight guys have as well. This show was supposed to be a 15-20 min show to introduce this segment and well we went for almost an hour! It’s so easy to talk to Patrick, that’s what we did. This has to be one of my favorite podcasts in a while. Talking real issues is not for everyone but I hope you will listen and if you are a bi or straight guy please reach out and get on the show. I think those perspectives need more attention in the world of underwear. We all have issues so let’s address them!

The stretchy fabric gives you a great fit even when you’re active at the gym. It’s the perfect everyday underwear! Shop at C-IN2

The designs in our BodyArt collection are never dreamt up on our designer’s sketch pad or plucked from a graphics book. No, the inspiration for BodyArt  comes to life as a tattoo born of the blood, sweat and tears shed by the guy who proudly bears it on his skin. 

Our first collection featured the ink of an exiled, most likely ex-Yakuza member, tattooed from head to toe and living out his days in London.

Our current BodyArt collection tells the story of Adam Von Rothfelder, an MMA fighter turned celebrity fitness guru, who transformed his personal tragedies into physical triumphs.

Adam views his ink as a work in progress, highlighting the ebb and flow of his life. Made from 95% premium spun cotton and 5% elastane, BodyArt packs a punch.

I have been going through a lot lately, personally, professionally, and in life in general. I am fast approaching the 14th anniversary of UNB, and I keep thinking about where the blog and UNB world will go. Have I figured out the road map forward, not in the slightest, but I have never really planned out UNB every step of the way. There has been a general road map, and then let things play out!

PODCAST

The podcast is one part of the blog that is true to the road above. I started it in 2009 and went to the start of 2012. It didn’t catch on, and I didn’t do it as often as I should have, but we struck on something great when it was relaunched in 2018. Instead of doing the podcast about the brands and such in underwear, I turned it into discussions about underwear with real guys. You get to be a part of the conversation.

This part of the blog has brought me so much joy as well. I love talking to new guys about underwear and getting new guys together on shows to talk about specific topics. Some of the emails have been incredible. How we are making guys find out they aren’t alone out there! Those of us on the show take it for granted to talk undies, but so many out there don’t have that friend or any outlet, so listening to us go back and forth has been one way to hear like-minded guys.

I have so much planned for the podcast it’s just making it happen. I want to add more people of color, all body sizes, people outside of the US, of all orientations, and even married couples (gay, bi, straight). I have been lucky to call many of these guys my friends. I hope this continues. The only downside is editing. For the time being, one podcast a week is about all I can manage.

The Blog

I know many people have turned to IG/TicTok and influencers in the underwear world and such. However, I think blogs will always have a place on the internet. During the last few years, I have gone from a staff of 8 down to just me writing. I would welcome guys to come on and write. If you are passionate, email me or DM me on social media.

Why haven’t there been many reviews? Many may have noticed a cut back in reviews. The main reason is owning a store and reviewing isn’t ethically responsible. I usually get Andy, Erik, or Stevie to do some reviews for me. I miss doing them, but I don’t want anyone to say, “you’re giving a good review just to sell underwear with the UNB Store.” The blog differs from the store, and I will always treat it that way, promoting other stores and brands. UNB welcomes everyone in the underwear world.

I plan on making the blog a little more personal and talking about issues in underwear, so pivot from the “journalistic” point of view I started with, and I think many guys love that as well. I also welcome brands and stores to guest write and do new things. We have teamed up with the fantastic Men and Underwear Store to do the “What’s Hot in Europe” monthly.

UNB Store

I started the store in 2018 as a discount site, but at the time, I never had time to devote to it and let it sit for months. In 2019 I lost my primary source of income and had the opportunity to launch an actual store, and I took it. It’s growing and needs to grow a lot more! I love doing it, even though I said I’d never do an underwear store for years.

It’s a learning curve to run a store! I worked for a store in the early 2010s and got a feel for it, but now I’m the buyer, bookkeeper, social media manager, marketing, and customer service agent. Plus, the economy this year has been rough on many businesses. Using social media to sell undies is just as difficult as you guys wanting to share your love of undies. It sucks. because there is so much we can’t do that other industries can.

One thing I want to do is create personalized underwear recommendations for guys. If you are interested, let me know, but know this will not happen overnight and may take a few days to get back to you. However, this is a thing I love to do, and recommend new brands and styles. Also, Erik and Andy are willing to help with the thong suggestions.

Just a few updates for you guys, and look to new writings on the blog, new podcasts, and new recommendations!

Timoteo has always designed fun and excellent swimwear/underwear. This year he has released several pairs of swim from the Vaux line. I knew once I saw the Vaux Playa Swim Brief. First, it was because of the design, and second is the print pictured above!

To me, this design is a classic swim brief design. It’s a little smaller, but that’s part of the fun. The print, on the other hand, is one of my favorites this year. I love bright, bold colors, and this one will stand out on the beach or pool. I am sure if you go to a pool party this year and wear this pair, you will get multiple guys asking where you got this pair.

All NEW Vaux Playa Crossover Swim Brief is made of high quality nylon/spandex fabric for a great fit in and out of the water. This crossover brief features a covered elastic drawstring waist with a Vaux logo heat transfer on left hip. Wear it as an underwear or as a swimwear

PAIR: Timoteo Vaux PLaya Swim Brief
COLORS: Black, Black Floral, Multi Print (as shown), Pink, and Turquoise
FABRIC: 82% nylon, 18% spandex
SIZES: Small – X-Large
PRICE: $38.00

Todd Sanfield makes some fantastic underwear! He’s added more and more thongs to his collection lately, and he has just dropped the Natron Thong to his collection. I have heard from a few guys that they love all his styles, including the thongs. I have several pairs and think they are some of my favorite in my drawer.

One thing you can say about Todd is he doesn’t sit. Still, he’s constantly adding new styles, colors, and prints to his collection. Each addition seems to be hand-picked and seamlessly fits into his overall brand. His collection has grown and matured over the years into one that will be around for many years! His fabrics and designs have resonated with guys, and the quality is up there with the best brands on the market.

This new thong is ” Our classic style thongs are elevated with a high-stretch, soft-to-the-touch polyamide fabric that sits low on your hips to ensure a comfortable fit” Granted, if you don’t like a waistband with your thong, this isn’t for you. However, it’s worth a try if you do, and I bet you will love it.

The Natron Thong is out now on the Todd Sanfield website.

PAIR: Todd Sanfield Natron Thong
COLORS: Red
FABRIC: 90% Polyamide / 10% Elastane
SIZES: X-Small – XX-Large
PRICE: $34.00

Fem Friday is a celebration of posting pics that emphasize Femininity. Men’s underwear has a whole new lingerie section inspired by women’s lingerie. It shows that there is more room in the industry for everyone with every like. No matter what you think of the Fem side, it’s good to see risks being taken in men’s underwear.

One brand that has come onto the scene is Secret Male. This brand really takes design style from women’s lingerie. It’s for the guy who wants to experience the Fem side a little farther in underwear that’s made for men. One issue about wearing women’s lingerie is that there isn’t a pouch for the goods.

This collection has a little of everything from garters, thongs and more. You can check out the latest collection at the UNB Store. It was just added this week! Go check out the super fun collection. Get 20% off with code Fun20 at check out until Aug 16.

We are joined in this Brief Tale by JC Ortega. You may be following him on IG or have seen him in the recent Vegas Trip and Grand Axis shoot in the desert. He joined us for a conversation about how he fell in love with Underwaer. It’s an fun story and he likes some very classic things! But don’t worry he loves some amazing thongs as well.

N2N bodywear just released a really fun new pair. It’s the FIRE ISLAND RAIDER THONG. Feel the heat, the DAMN heat! It is STILL summer. Still time for beach days and POOL PARTIES!  What better way to have some real sexy fun than in the FIRE ISLAND RAIDER THONG! 3 bold SKIN BARING colored suits equipped with the ever popular easy release clip on the side to usher in those sexy tan lines AND attention!

This week’s Swimwear Sunday pair is one that I love the print. I am huge on prints and think 2EROS makes some of the best prints. This one is called the V10 Print Swimwear – Paradise. This pair comes after a long line of superb prints over the years. I think this would make an amazing pair for any pool or beach.

Fly into paradise this summer and make a splash with the Birds of Paradise beachwear. The birds of paradise feature outstanding oranges and beautiful blues to form crane-like florals. It is designed to accentuate and celebrate the male body. Pair it up with a crisp white top so the design really pops

The V10 is one of the popular styles of swimwear from 2EROS, it’s been in their lineup for years! Don’t worry if you don’t like prints this comes in many solid colors as well, but I think the prints are freaking amazing.

We are fast approaching the end of swim season. However, I think the season gets extended by trips to Mexico, Hawaii, and cruises. It’s always good to pick up new pair of swimwear for these trips! And remember it’s never too late in the season to buy new swimwear.

You can get this pair from the 2EROS site or many of your favorite online sellers.

If you are a jockstrap fan, Ergowear just dropped some amazing new jocks. One of the things I love the most about Ergowear is the pouch. This line has the Max and Gym Ultra pouches! Both of these pouches give you some of the most amazing support.

If you are after a great jock to work out in or wear every day, these are the jocks for you. In my opinion, Ergowear makes some of the best jocks in the industry. They fit amazing and give you such great support for cardio or everyday wear.

MAXimum support and shape with the MAX XV Jockstrap – Red

Probably the closest thing to not wearing anything, but still getting plenty of support for your genitals and glutes. These Jockstraps in red feature a 3-dimensional, nose-shaped MAX pouch which gently lifts your anatomy and provides enough room, so that everything stays in place, even for well-endowed guys, without being confining or too tight. The rear of the MAX XV Jockstrap is supported by two straps that are attached to the waistband from the outside to maximize smoothness on the skin

MAXimum support and shape with the GYM ULTRA Jockstrap

Probably the closest thing to not wearing anything, but still getting plenty of support for your genitals and glutes. These gym Jockstraps in white feature a 3-dimensional, nose-shaped MAX pouch which gently lifts your anatomy and provides enough room, so that everything stays in place, even for well-endowed guys, without being confining or too tight. The rear of the MAX XV Gym Jockstrap is supported by two straps that are attached to the waistband from the outside to maximize smoothness on the skin.
