Everyone and everything has a modest side and Candyman Fashion is no exception. The 9515 Boxer is one of their more modest pairs and even someone as exciting as me needs a break now and then to enjoy some simple, but enjoyable, boxer briefs. Though I did say simple, they are quite shiny and in the right light, they are a little see-through.  When you have them on, you don’t have to worry about anything being seen.

This pair is made of 90% Nylon and 10% Spandex, all of which is again, very shiny, almost a little too shiny for my likings.  Since I wear pants over them, it’s not that big of a deal.  There is a simple design on the front of red horizontal stripes on the legs that connect to a black pouch, all with a bit of glitter to them.  Surround that with a silver background and you have yourself a modest pair of underwear.

When it comes to actually wearing the pair, the 9514 is a little loose and it has an interesting feel.  I can’t really put my finger on it, but it’s a tight feel, even though the pair is somewhat loose.  Don’t let that deter you, however, from giving the 9514 a try.  They are still a great pair of underwear.  If you would like a good fitting, comfortably simple, and modest pair, I would certainly recommend that you go and buy the 9514 Boxer!

Candyman Fashion provided me with this pair of underwear to review

I’m still working on getting all the info from the different lines to bring to you, but in the mean time, I have all these pics and wanted to run down my time at Magic. It was really fun and from here on out we are going to try to be at all the shows and cover men’s underwear and give you all the info on the new lines.  If you aren’t familiar with what Magic is, it’s a big show for retailers to look at and buy all the new lines for both men’s and women’s clothes. But there is a section called “Underwear Alley” where most of the underwear companies are located.

The first thing I have to say is it was really great to meet everyone face-to-face. We have been working with most of the companies for a long time and actually being able to sit down and talk to them was great. I did forget to ask a lot of “What can I report?” and “What is new” But, in my defense, the whole thing was a bit over whelming at times. You see some of the top underwear companies in the world, and you get a chance to look through the lines and it’s like being a kid in a candy store! Then the next day you go, “DOH! I should have asked…”, but that’s what email is for! As a side note, it’s been a little slow getting all the information, because they all have to go back and put in all their orders and get everything shipped to the company. But never fear we’ll get you more info shortly!

With that said, the trip to Magic was a fast one, I basically spent one day in Las Vegas. I flew in Wednesday night, the show runs Tuesday through Thursday. Then took the red eye home on Thursday night. Told you it was fast! I got in and crashed, since the plane landed at 11:30 EST. I got up the next morning and hit the show. It was a mixture of excitement and nervousness.

Baskit

I got in the show and talked to Eric from Baskit. I dropped my stuff at his booth and then met Eric Turner. I’m sure many of you are aware of him from MegaMuscle and Facebook. As you can see by the pic of us together, he kept saying he was fat, and I was like “Whatever!” Although, he kept cracking me up all day. I will say that I enjoyed seeing him through out the day! The one thing I really want to check out is the new “easy access” pair they have. I am getting more information but it’s going to be a very fun pair.

Candyman, Clever, PPU, Pikante

The next stop was at the Candyman, Clever, PPU and Pikante Booth. These are new companies that we just started working with before attending the show. I got to meet them and go through the collections. One of the things I really loved is they have a line of shape wear that has prints on them. Which are the coolest thing I have seen in a while. We have predicted that shape wear is going to be big and with this latest addition, it will be even bigger. I got a chance to see the Candyman line and it’s just a fun line. My favorite set they had was the vampire one! These are really the first fantasy line for men I ever remember seeing that had some time into creating the line and made it fun! The other lines I love because of the use of prints and patterns.  Clever has to be one of the lines I really want to see more of, because of the patterns. They have some really great patterns and prints. I admit I’m a color guy and love it when I see new companies taking risks with colors. I will go into more detail and bring you guys Brief Distractions from the companies!

Punto Blanco

I got a chance to talk to them for a little bit. They are a line we have only covered in sales information. We have done very little with that and we hope that will change. We have emailed back and forth and I hope we will get more in depth info for you very soon. Punto Blanco reminds me a sport wear line. They have stripes and solids, noting too out there.

(B)rief underneath

I got a chance to talk to them through out the show. I walked around a lot. I think they have a really cool concept in underwear. It’s boxers with a brief built in. I know so many guys who are still wearing boxers, but haven’t made the decision to move to briefs, and these are a great compromise. They have really great colors and styles of the boxers. I am not much of a boxer guy but I did see a few pairs I liked. So, if they got me looking at them, then they are doing something right. They also, were showing their loungewear. I can’t wait for these. Imagine comfy lounge pants with underwear built in, I know it’s not traditionally underwear but this is brilliant concept and I can’t wait for it to come out! We will keep you posted when it’s available.

Ginch Gonch

I like Ginch Gonch, there are many things going on with them. They have come out with their new “I Love” line. Which currently features I love boys and girls lines. They are going to extend it into a few more cities. The  I Love London was just released at London Fashion week this past week. They are carrying over the themes of I Love in to some really cool Long Johns. I love that companies are actually experimenting with them. I admit, and I know many out there love the traditional long johns, but I would love some color and fun in long johns. Ginch Gonch has proved this with their previous pairs, such as the Argyle ones. I am talking to them soon so I’ll let you know more out the new lines.

This is the end of Part One! I will finish up tomorrow with the rest!  I will go over a few more brands and then we’ll keep you up to date on the hottest men’s underwear!

One of my goals this year working on the Underwear News Briefs blog is to expose our readers to some brands of underwear that they may not know about. Candyman Fashions is one of those brands that I wanted to bring to our readers.

Candyman Fashions looks to role playing costumes to get inspiration for their underwear. However not all of their undies have a “costume” feel. They have some great undies with a lot of fun, unique, and sexy features that you will not find with any other underwear company. Their fabric is one of a kind and you must experience it to really grasp its uniqueness.

I received the”9516 Zebra Boxer” in a size medium to review. This is one of those styles from Candyman that is not a costume, but just a fun pair of undies. They feature a zebra style pattern on the hips and butt, and a solid black front and inside thigh panel. A solid black logo waistband trims it off and adds a little extra “pop”. When I first pull these undies out of the package, the first thing that I noticed was the fabric. It has a shiny look to it. The black front and inner thigh panel almost looks like leather. However, this fabric feels nothing like leather. It is thin but durable, and it stretches and moves with you without any issues. These undies fit great and looks even better .My first impression of the front pouch wasn’t the best. I found it to be a little small, but as I wore them, they almost conformed and molded to my body and we actually very conformable to wear. The one drawback that I did notice is the leg openings did ride up a little, but not enough for me to really notice too much.

These and many of the other styles from Candyman are great to wear for daily wear, but these undies really shine when you wear them out on the town. The fit is great for all day wear, but the patterns, colors, fabric, and sex appeal of these undies are meant to be noticed. They also can add a little extra spice in the bedroom. I wouldn’t recommend wearing these to the gym or out for a run. I am not saying that you couldn’t, but I believe there are better undies for that. Best to let these eye catching undies be seen in the wild and not full of sweat while you are doing to squat workout.

Overall, I really enjoyed these undies. They add an element of fun and a little “something different” to my ever expanding underwear collection.

For those of you that have read my reviews and articles here on the blog, you know that I have a few favorite brands of undies.   I don’t, however, have a true brand loyalty to one company or another.  Call me a free spirited underwear guru if you must.  I love having the opportunity to try new brands whenever I can!

A few weeks ago, I received one of the many underwear email promotions I subscribe to and I saw a brand I had never heard of before…Candyman!  I did a little research online and contacted the company to find out more about them since there isn’t a lot online.  After exchanging emails, I scheduled a conference call with Candyman’s vice president to see exactly what this new underwear line was all about!

Candyman was launched about six months ago with the idea that they wanted to provide guys with “something different” when it comes to men’s underwear.  If you haven’t seen anything that Candyman has introduced, they definitely have different nailed down.  The thing I like about Candyman is that they allow you to get as wild as you want, but yet they offer some styles to let you be fun as well.

Candyman gets its inspiration for designs and styles from role playing costumes.  The parent company of Candyman also has a women’s line of role playing costumes and wanted to bring that same fun to a men’s line.  Their 2009 collections offers costume-style undies like “Office Naughty”, “Ride On Cowboy”, “Knockout Nurse” and “Take me in Prisoner”. These are styles that will add an element of fun and excitement to whoever wears them.

Candyman Fashions will be launching their Spring 2010 collection in a few short weeks.  They will be offering about 20% more products over their current collection.  You will see a styles return from their past collection, but you will also see the addition of a firefighter and pilot costume as well.  Candyman’s Spring 2010 collection will also feature some new styles that revolve around a new shiny fabric that looks almost like Latex and will be available in 5 different colors.

Candyman is focused on keeping things fresh.  They will be updating their collection twice a year as opposed to most underwear companies that produce a new line once each year. They pride themselves on shipping orders within 24 hours and have plenty of options including overnight for those of you that can’t wait to get into these undies.  Candyman can be found at numerous online men’s underwear stores as well as many brick and mortar retail outlets.  Check them out and let us know what you think of this fun, crazy, and different underwear company!

Candyman has also sent us underwear for reviews, so be looking for those in the next couple weeks!
