IS_UND_Billy_Galaxy_1_121207141224Underwear of the week should be very fun. This week the search didn’t take very long to find a great pair. That lucky pair is the aussieBum Billy Galaxy Brief. It is very retro in the print, deigns and colors used. aussieBum has always taken pride in making underwear fun. A prime example of this is on the podcast we did a few years ago with Sean Ashby said they created the Fisherman series because the model had a nice butt. aussieBum is a company that like fun and doesn’t always have to take itself seriously.

The new Billy line has 9 retro style in each of the pairs. However, the pair we chose is the Billy Galaxy brief. The pair is very retro 80’s! That means the print of 8 bit video characters and the colors used will transport you back to the 70’s! You can see this in the picture to the right. It looks very Space Invaderish.

Reasons this pair is our underwear of the week:

  • Made out of 100% Australian cotton.
  • Material is super light weight
  • Great colorful 70’s inspired print
  • A bikni cut that is a throw back to the 70’s
  • Available for around $17

Find this and all of the 9 different Billy retro inspired underwear at the aussieBum

site!

 

ab_bilyThe one thing I love about covering underwear is that someone always comes up with new fun prints and colors for undies. By doing this it really adds to the fun factor. aussieBum has done just that with it’s new Billy Range. The range has 8 retro fun prints. As youc an see they have the 8 bit graphic, camo, floral and cartoon inspired.

aussieBum is one of those companies not afraid to take a risk. If you remember a few years back they had the Valentine’s underwear of bunnies, well for a lack of better term, doing it! Which really made me laugh. The 8 patters are as diverse as our readers. There will be one that you will love.

We posted the video this week but to see all the patterns go to the aussieBum site and check them out. The pairs retail for $16.75 and only available in brief cut!

Welcome to the 2012 Holiday Guide. This has to be the biggest guide we have done to date. We had over 80 pairs of underwear, three models, a photographer, an assistant and a stylist.

Are you a fan of aussieBum? If you are then they have released a new range called the CottonSoft. aussieBum is known for their great fit and designs and not afraid to take risks in the men’s underwear world. This design is very classic in styling. I think most brands need to express themselves and then have a pair or two for when you want the great fit but something a little less flashy. For example, this pair is one that you could wear to the gym with out any strange looks. Although we have a few readers who like getting the looks!

  • Available in White, Grey and Black
  • Waistband colors Metallic Silver and Earth Green
  • 92% Cotton, 8% Elastane
  • Styles are Brief and Trunk
  • $22.50 for the brief and $25.50 for the Trunk

Find these and more styles at the aussieBum website.

Monday night (here in the U.S.) aussieBum streamed live their photo shoot. If you are a fan of our Facebook page, we posted a link to the aB LiveStream channel. aB really knows how to use social media to their advantage. The feed was a little testy for a bit. It would play then cut out and pick back up. I watched for about 30 mins at the beginning.

It is a great way to see how a photo shoot is conducted in the underwear/swimwear business. Very few companies actually will show you the behind the scenes of a shoot in this detail. There have been others who have done this but aB has started doing this on a regular basis.

The shoot was for a DNA Magazine cover. As you see form the picture here they will be releasing a singlet soon! We will have all the information about it when it is released. Next time they do a stream we hope to post it before it goes live!

Are you a big geek like me for Comic Book Movies? Do you love underwear? If you answered yes to both, then you need to check out aussieBum‘s coverage of the premier of the Avengers. They do have a product placement in the movie! It has been been a big year for the world of men’s underwear!  The image holds a count down till  5:15 PM (BST) and it will switch to the live stream automatically. You can watch the stream below or at the aussieBum site!

aussieBum has released a new style . This is part of a range the Flame range. We have reviewed the flame range last year. The range was only available  as a trunk. They have expanded the line into briefs as well.

Features:

  • Thicker waistband
  • Silicon branded waistband in 4 colors
  • Made with that great aussieBum fit
  • Brief comes in white and black
  • Retails for about $25 US.

You can find this brief on the aussieBum site.
