0229_Turquoise_3JOR has their new 2016 line out and I have to say, I am very impressed. I was first introduced to JOR through one of the underwear of the month clubs. I fell in love and they are keeping that romance going with this new line. *swoon*

First off, love the color swatch. It is mostly all very pastel colors, slightly muted but they make an impact. They remind of the typical nerdy girls who are always behind a book in old 80s and 90s Rom-Coms. Then the main character takes a second look and it’s like, BAM! I really dig all of the light yellow, grey and pink. And then the bold blue makes a nice break from it all. Well done JOR!

Now let’s talk about the thing that I find fascinating: the thongs. Especially the Mediterraneo thong. I feel like the best way to describe it is that the top part, with the waist band looks trunk like. It has a fascinating square cut that I keep scrolling back up to (on the website). It’s new, it’s fresh, it’s eye catching. Did I mention that I’m a fan? Plus you can get it in such interesting colors.

The other thongs in the line don’t disappoint either. The Soft Thong has a similar but lesser played look that I looks great too.

0229 (2)

And then of course there are the assless briefs. I know I already swooned but I mean, come on. These have such a perfect cut going on. Assless briefs can have a few different ways to do the cut in the back. There can be fabric underneath the waist band in the back. There can be thicker straps with piping, and there can be slightly odd squared off sides, to name a few. These ones (the Soft Jockstraps) have the first part with a slightly lighter piping and no odd squares! They frame the bum like the work of art it is. The Electro Jockstrap DOES have the heavier. Contrasting piping for those who really want to highlight the rear (rawr!).

For color lovers, for design lovers, for UNDERWEAR lovers in general, this is an extremely intriguing and playful line. I am so excited to see this hit the stores and even more excited to see it hit some bodies out there.

0281_Printed_2

I was going to profile a nice calm pair of swim briefs. Ones that are more low key and relaxed. I was thinking a simple black brief, which is classic! However, as my week went on I wanted something with a little more pop in them. So it got me thinking who has some great new swimwear? Then I remembered that JOR just released a brand new line!

There are so many great pairs from JOR. It will grace Swimwear Sunday more than once. The pair I chose this week is the Ibiza Swim Briefs. The Ibiza is a print with a blue background. The image features the great island of Ibiza! Match that with the blue sky and it’s a conversation starter for sure! Made out of Polyester 13% Spandex blend with a hidden draw cord waist.

Swimwear should be a bit different than our underwear. You have to admit it’s flattering when someone comes up and asks about your swimwear. “Who made that suit?” “Where did you get that amazing swim suit?” We are sure if you wear this pair you will be asked those questions. That is because prints are big in swimwear. They have been carried over from underwear I believe. Guys just want to express themselves in different way.

One more thing about the pair. We have to turn you around. The back has the print and says “Welcome Summer.” I love this touch! It just adds to the conversation factor! JOR is all about fun!

How is sizing? The sizing chart states that a Small is 28-30, Medium 30-32, Large 32-34 and XL 34-36. Its not a traditional underwear size but it’s comparable to most undies. I wished it came in more sizes on the larger end.

If you are interested in this pair you can find it at your favorite store or online at Candyman Fashion for $45.48

JOR (2)

 

Candyman Fashion furnished us with some great pairs of the JOR Workout collection to review. 

JOR – Logo Black T-shirt

I received a black long-sleeve style shirt from JOR, my first impression of it was comfy and light. This was the first thing I have ever tried or worn from this company. This particle shirt does have a white version as well; its cut is the same.

I wore it around the condo and around town, it was quite comfy. It was a regular, non-active day, and with how well it felt by the end of the day I have no doubt that this shirt could take a beating and be fine.

I received a size large from them which fit me like a glove.

In terms of likes and dislikes for this shirt, I loved the fit and fabric for this shirt. I wasn’t a huge fan of how the neck opening was, but after a while I got used to it.

Pros:

  • Good Sizing
  • Amazing Material
  • Nice fit

Cons:

  • Neck opening is cut off

Rating:

  • Daily Fit – 9
  • Sizing – 9
  • Construction – 9
  • Styling – 9.5
  • Daily Performance – 8.5
  • Overall – 9

JOR- Runner Black Long Pants

I received a pair of black runner tights from JOR, my initial impression of these was they felt very nice.

I wore it around the condo and went to the gym to workout. It was a regular workout so I put the pants through their paces, and at the end of the workout,

I received a size large from them which fit me very well and was extremely comfortable.

In terms of likes and dislikes for this pair of pants, I loved everything about them, from material, cut, styling, sizing/fit. There wasn’t anything about them I disliked.

Pros:

  • Sexy styling
  • Good Sizing
  • Good cut
  • Amazing Material
  • Nice fit

Cons:

Rating:

  • Daily Fit – 9.5
  • Sizing – 9.5
  • Construction – 9.5
  • Styling – 9.5
  • Daily Performance – 9.5
  • Overall – 9.5

5 RUNNERSDid you make a resolution to work out more in 2016? Or do you want something a little more fun to wear to the gym? If you answered yes to either of those questions this post is for you. Runners have really come on strong in the fitness world. They are being worn at the gym, running or cross fit. They can be worn for extra support or maybe comfort. We have selected a few of the newest pairs for you guys!

You may know Aronik as the swimwear company. This year they have branched out and created a line of runners. The line is called Command. It is available in three colors: Coal (pictured above), Vino and Blu. Each one has the Aronik name on the right thigh. Each pair retails for $90. Find the Aronik Command Line at the Aronik Site.

If you don’t want to wear the runners with nothing over them. You should try the Junk UnderJeans Raw Street Runners. They can be worn solo or with something over them. The front has a breathable mesh panel as well! The Raw Street Runner is available in Aqua, Green (pictured) and pink. Don’t let the pink fool you black with pink accents. Made out of 95% Polyester/5% Spandex blend. The Raw Street Runner retails for $40 on the Junk UnderJeans site

Unknown-17

Looking for a pair that is fashionable as well? Rufskin has been making Runners for years. The Lynx is one that isn’t so over the top that you can’t wear them to the gym. Some runners they have made are super sexy and may turn a few too many heads. The Lynx runner has a stripe that goes up the legs and back to accent the body. The olive has a shiny wet look finish. The black has a more rubber like appearance. The Lynx retails at $82 at the Rufskin site.

0220_Blue_1

One thing we haven’t covered too much is color. There are some of us out there who love to wear color in our underwear and work out wear! JOR has released the JOR 0220 Runner Long Pant. The blue is a bright fun blue with a white stripe down the side and neon waistband. If you’re looking for something less bright they also make it in a black with a yellow stripe! Made out of a 96% polyester, 4% spandex blend.  Find the JOR 0220 Runners  at the Candyman Fashion site for $55.48

Unknown-18

The last pair we are going to cover is the 2EROS BLK AKTIV line. These are basic black with a 2EROS waistband. Much like the Junk UnderJeans listed above these can be worn by themselves or under a pair of shorts. It’s made from a 95% Polyester / 5% Elastane lightweight fabric that will wick moisture away. Perfect for working out in. Can you go wrong with basic black? The BLK AKTIV Compression Tights retail for $89.95 AUD on the 2EROS Site.

Check out these five great pairs of runners. We are sure there will be one pair you will love!

Show of hands who here loves great colors? Who here loves great prints? Who here loves matching tanks and underwear? Who here loves bright fun swimwear? Who here loves bright work out wear?  If you answered yes to any of those questions the new JOR collection is for you!

JOR is known for their amazing use of colors. It’s not just solid bright colors but prints as well. Each collection they come out with funs prints in both underwear and swimwear. They have a really amazing collection this year. We are going to show you a few pairs we think you guys need to get now!

Rally Collection – Sports mesh underwear is always some of the most comfortable undies. Well I think so. The Rally collection is a sports mesh of a boxer, brief, jock and thong. The entire line is awesome but the jockstrap is my favorite. Below we have all the styles in the line. Available in white, grey and black.

Mirror Collection – Just like a real mirror. The Mirror collection is a shiny nylon/spandex fabric. I don’t think you have to have all cotton and matte underwear. There are times you what to show off what you are wearing. A shiny fabric like the Mirror collection is awesome. They selected a black, white and blue. While the black is classic the blue really pops to me. My favorite in this line is the brief design. It’s low cut with contrasting trim. This line has a boxer, brief, jock and thong.

Lines Collection – Lines is a bit more conservative for JOR. They are known for doing mesh, bright colors. This is a more subtle for JOR. I am not say by any means this is a conservative pair. Stripes can be sometimes very boring. This definitely is not. The color combinations they use really stand out. The red is my favorite with red, pink and white stripes. It’s just fun! The styles in this collection are boxer and brief.

Tiger Collection – JOR has for the last few collections had lines that consists of a boxer, brief, jock, thong, tank and swim trunk and swim brief. It may sound like it would be over the top. These collections have been some of the best in the entire line. One thing I like best is the swimwear is not matchy matchy with the underwear. It’s similar but not the same.  Each one of these deserves a feature but I chose the Tiger.  Other lines with matching tanks are Animal, True Love, Picasso and Zebra

Monaco Swim Briefs – The Monaco series has one thing I love in swimwear. That is different colors than what is expected. This lines has a green and pink. The pink is awesome. The cut is a full swim brief that JOR is known for designing. These both will look amazing on the beach this year!

Vallarta Swim Briefs – Last collection they had flamingos and this time the Vallarta has the bright color print! The print seems to definitely be tropical inspired. The print is a leaf print which by itself has a hint of pink and yellow. Pari that with the pink in the front and you will stand out on the beach!

Runners – Runners are one of the biggest trends in men’s workout wear. JOR put their bright spin on runners. Last collection they had shorts and runners in solid colors. This collection they have two runners. One is a bright blue with a white stripe and the other is a black with yellow stripe. The waist band on the blue pair is a bright yellow. This will make the pair stand out and pop. If you don’t want to draw attention to yourself choose the black! The blue will get some looks!

Player Shorts – JOR has expanded their work out/active wear. These are shorter shorts. Not super booty shorts but form fitting and could be worn to the gym our as a cover up on the beach. The shiny nylon fabric and draw string waist really stand out. Pair that with the logo on the left leg. It really reminds of me of a retro pair of gym shorts. Ones you would see in the 70’s or early 80’s. Just available in blue or black.

This is just a few of the pairs I think you guys should know! There are several more you need to check out. See the collection on GDD World site or shop for it on Candyman Fashion site.
