We are delighted to show you today one more exclusive editorial for Men and Underwear, photographed in Greece featuring model and Men and Underwear ambassador Stathis. The editorial is called Daylight and is a celebration of nature and natural light. To many of us this has been a very strange year and most didn’t get the chance to go on holidays this summer. We hope with these images we bring some sun and happy vibes in your screen. The underwear we chose for this shoot is the Fern Briefs of Walking Jack, a natural choice since its print is inspired by nature. These briefs are a unique combination of comfort and contemporary design, perfect to wear every day and at any occasion. If you haven’t tried this brand yet, these briefs are a perfect example of their craftsmanship and top quality materials. Stathis is always a pleasure to work with. His professionalism and great sense of humour make every shoot we have with him an absolute joy. Stay tuned, more photos from this editorial are coming this week!
We love Dustin James. This is a pic of him in a Wayne Underwear Thong. He’s a super guy and go listen to our. podcast with him! He will be on more podcasts soon too.
You’ll “get the picture” when you slip into Private Screening, the latest innovation from Male Power.
This collection of novel mini-shorts put the focus where it belongs, on the micro-mesh pouch. It is screen printed with a choice of illustrations – Skull and Crossbones (for buried treasure), Fishbowl (for aquascaping) and Pot Leaf (for an all-time high).
The tattoo inspired images accentuate a lightweight, Modal garment that assures a supremely comfortable fit. Male Power lets you look cool and feel cool at the same time.
Size does matter, and you can select the one that fits best: S-M-L-XL. Immediate shipment is available in the company’s high quality packaging.
Private Screening – it’s the perfect showcase for the private parts.
So, I do love underwear! I used to wear all kinds: briefs, jockstraps, and thongs, but lately, probably around late 2016 and beyond, I have been focusing more on my love for thongs, specifically those with no wide elastic waistband and Lycra.
I started my love for underwear as a boy when I asked my dad to buy the colored and funky bikinis from Avon catalogs (yeah, they do sell clothes besides makeup!). And he would go and place the order: 100% cotton bikinis with fun prints: stripes, rectangles, polka dots, etc. I’d also buy plain and bold colors: red, blue, yellow and of course the basic black, gray and white.
I never cared for boxers. The furthest I went with those were boxer briefs, and I never really enjoyed them. I have thick thighs, so they would always end up rolling up, so uncomfortable.
As I grew older, I started buying my own underwear from regular brands like UCB and CK, mostly briefs since they were available locally in stores. As soon as I started talking with others in chat rooms, I discovered more brands: AC, 2Xist, Diesel, Aussie Bum, H&M, etc. I knew I wanted to try those and so, I did! My first lycra thong was a white CK some guy gave me as a present! Man, I loved that thong!
I remember my first solo trip; I went shopping at Macy’s, I bought beyond briefs, jockstraps, cotton thongs. I was hooked! From cheap Hang Ten and Joe Boxer to expensive CK, I at least owned 5 thongs, plenty of jockstraps, and briefs!
Later on, I realized I did love thongs the most and started wandering around sites like spandexguys and getting in touch with men who also enjoyed this fascination and thong fetish. Again, for me, it goes beyond a fetish since I do wear thongs regularly.
I started knowing about their brands, MuscleSkins, Joe Snyder, TM, JQK, Tendenze, Dory, iKingsky, Arroyman, Jovana, etc. Most recently, last year, I discovered Skinzfit.
That’s pretty much a summary of my journey with underwear.
Riley Jacob is an amazing guy, I hope to work with him soon! But this is a pic he did with Nic Hippler. How many of us play video games in our undies lately?
This week, our panel, Andy, Erik, and Ryan are joined by Al. They talk about thonging in their home towns and areas around them. Andy talks about the Midwest, Erik talks about Phoenix and LA, Ryan talks about Utah, LA, and Austin. Special guest Al talks about his current home of Costa Rica and previous visits and stays in Mexico City, Miami and more.
It’s Thong Thursday! It’s also Thowback Thursday. We posted this awesome pic back in December of 2016. Sukrew still makes amazing thongs, so go check them out.
We are well into the Christmas season. Garcon just released their Christmas video with Manila Luzon. Just note this is a YouTube video and you can see the unedited version on the Garcon site.
The Speedo Movement and Artist Emmitt Smith create a swim brief that is literally art and clothing in a really cool way!
We are so proud to bring our limited edition suit “Spotlight” to the UNB Blog! Hurry and order yours as it is literally almost gone!
When we were trying to decide what to do with our store for the Black Friday – Small Business Saturday – Cyber Monday weekend we thought how fun would it be to create a limited edition suit that would be both visually interesting and promote our idea that “all bodies are speedo bodies.” We were fortunate enough to collaborate with Emmitt Smith, an artist based in San Francisco, CA on this project. We literally took one of his paintings and translated it to a swim brief. The process was a LOT of fun and we released the limited edition run of 25 for sale. Currently as of writing this we only have a few more left. You can head over to https://the-speedo-movement.myshopify.com/collections/movement-merch/products/spotlight-le-swim-brief to get one before we sell out.
Each suit will come with a bag that Cody (The Speedo Movement Co-Creator) hand made with Emmit’s signature and our logo on the front and the pink drawstring that you will see repeated on the swimming suit itself. Each suit will also come with two cards that explain the original piece of art and the process of how it turned into this really cool suit from both the artist’s (Emmit Smith) perspective and Joe and Cody from the Speedo Movement. The suit is designed to be kind of abstract and colorful when up close, but as you step back it becomes more “focused” which is the way many paintings and art pieces reveal themselves to the viewer. We also have each limited edition suit edition numbered on the rear, and you will be one of ONLY 25 people in the world to own this suit. Think of how cool it is that each body that wears it becomes, in a sense, a part of a work of art, partly a canvas for the art and part of an ongoing piece of performance art. We are so excited to share this collaboration and hope you enjoy “Spotlight” as much as we do!

UNB Store furnished the Xtremen Microfiber Brief for review. . All opinions of the review are my own.
Rating: 8.8/10 (Average of the ratings below)
Daily Fit: 8/10
Sizing: 10/10
Construction: 9/10
Styling: 9/10
Daily Performance: 8/10
Pros: Love the color combo of the blue. The fabric is one of my favorites and breathes with you. The sizing fit me and my 42 Inch waist
Cons: The pair rode down in the back (you need some junk in the trunk for it), some may not like the fabric if not used to mesh.
UNB Tim recommendation: If you are a bigger guy this pair is one you should check out. I love that Xtremen is making underwear for us bigger boys. Although I had issues with the back falling down the rest of the pair was awesome. Hopefully, after it’s washed a second time it may shrink down a little.
This is my second pair of Xtremen to try. I was super excited to try the Xtremen Microfiber briefs because I always found the design super hot. I love a great bikini and it looked like it would fit great. And now that they were making larger sizes I get to try it. Being a beefy boy (42″ waist) I’m left out a lot of the underwear world.
The first thing I loved was the mesh fabric. I am a big fan of this sports mesh material. It offers enough breathability but not so see-through or too airy. Next, I loved the color of the trim. The blue is offset by the pink. I love this color combo. So I put these on and went about my day!
I wore these at my part-time job that is very active and around the house after. Support wise they did great. The pouch gave me plenty of support without any constriction. The fabric felt great as well, I was not let down by that. However, I did have one problem. the pair kept falling down in the back. I was like WTF, but I think it has to deal with fact that I have no ass at all! I think if you have some junk in the trunk you will fit in these great. I guess I’ll have to do some squats before I wear them again. This was my only down side to the pair.
The sizing of this pair was good. I give Xtremen a job well done for their larger sizes. They are paying attention to men in the larger end and making sexy undies. I hope they keep releasing more pairs for us guys who love undies but don’t fit in the 32 waist size.
PAIR: Xtremen Microfiber Briefs COLORS: Blue, Grey, or Black FABRIC: 65% Poly 25% Nylon 10% Elasta SIZES: Reg Small – XL, Extended XX-Large – XXX-Large PRICE: $19.95

Yesterday we brought you the video from Todd Sanfield. I talked briefly to him yesterday and he was saying the new collection has improved on the previous designs. So, he talked me into buying some undies and give them a try.
One other new thing is the XX-Large size, Before now I could never fit in Todd’s underwear. But I”m giving it a try. I’m very excited. I will have reviews of the Micro Brief above and Sport brief from the new Defiant collection.

Before we get started with our interview, I’m sure many of our readers have seen you over the years on UNB. Tell our readers more about you; when you have free time, what do you do in your downtime? What are your hobbies and interests?
The thing about DW Chase, it’s an alter ego. That’s why there isn’t that much information about “me.” I have tried to keep my, let’s call it “modeling” stuff separate from the rest of my personal and career life. That being said, I am not a person who really enjoys conventional downtime. If I am not working one of my four jobs, I am usually at the beach tanning, at the gym training, or working in my hibiscus garden. I can’t sleep unless I feel like I have accomplished stuff every day. Because of the stay at home stuff, I have gotten more into hibiscus, exotic ones, and I live next to a nursery so, that’s become my real hobby lately.
Infinity Pool by Vela Imagery (Playa del Carmen) CA-RIO-CA
When did you start modeling?
“Modeling” is a word I use loosely because there are real models out there who make a living doing all that, with agencies and stuff. I started taking my own photos when I still lived back in Western North Carolina out of boredom around 16. Model Mayhem connected me with local photographers. After I got my bachelor’s, I moved to Los Angeles, worked with more photographers, and then landed a job in Texas, where my real career and the modeling stuff became more of a focus.
What made you focus on the world of underwear/swimwear?
As someone who grew up very isolated, with no self-confidence, it was a gradual thing for sure. I always knew there had to be some alternative to baggy board shorts, and my love of the beach just led me in that direction. I actually didn’t buy my first pair of swim briefs until I lived in Los Angeles after college. My height and body frame ushered me more in the direction of swim and underwear, I tried to do clothes modeling, and it just never worked. I grew to be fascinated by swimwear brands and stuff that I never had access to at a young age, and those types of things just kept getting more mainstream. As I began to travel to Australia, Japan, and other countries, I also realized smaller, more fitted swimwear was what people in shape wore.

You have been in so many magazines and websites over the years. What are some of your major accomplishments in the world of modeling?
Those have all been great, and I still can’t believe anyone would feature me. Even some of the artists I have worked with, if I didn’t have the proof, I wouldn’t believe it. I am blessed to have met and worked with such talented people in some amazing locations. Being featured on tv Dylan’s LUST book’s cover was certainly a highlight; more recently, getting to do a multi-day shoot with Charlie Valentine in Kauai around the island in “locals only” spots was certainly a photoshoot I will cherish forever.
What do you credit your success over the years and longevity in the industry?
I’m tenacious for sure; I think adapting is another thing you just have to do with social media, learning what’s new, but at the same time, still being able to offer your fans what they expect and keep surprising them. I’ve been called the king of the tease, ha ha, so I think that’s another thing. Persistence is something important to me, like with my new website DWCHASE.com, I post something new every day. I make rules for myself and take it very seriously.

You always wear some of the hottest gear in your shoots. Do you have any favorite brands you like to wear? If so, what brands do you love?
I have a lot of favorites and keep discovering new ones. Rufskin is a brand that I discovered a long time ago, and I have some really old stuff from them that I still wear, and they always keep reinventing themselves. CA-RIO-CA swimwear is another company that, when producing new stuff, seems to fit my body and personality very well. Marcuse out of Australia has some of the best fitting swimwear, as does Modus Vivendi in Greece. ES Collection has by far my favorite jockstraps. MerTailor is one of the most innovative also.

Where have been the best locations you have ever shot at? And why did you love them?
As I mentioned before, my second trip and second shoot with Charlie Valentine all over the Island of Kauai is one of the best I have had in my 135 photoshoots. Some locations in Peth Australia with Ev Dylan were unforgettable. The state park in Costa Rica was perfection in every direction. Shot there with Esteban Barrientos. The West Coast of Puerto Rico was also picture perfect. Location shoots are what really get me excited about photography.
You take a lot of pics yourself on your deck/patio. How do you take such amazing pics by yourself?
Years of practice, but to fulfill the quota I create for myself, I learned a long time ago that a tripod and timer are your best friend. I think so much self-photography has made me better when I work with others because I already know what works and what doesn’t.
Parachute by AU Fotografia (Galveston)
You have had a few guests on the patio/deck. Is there a model or models you would love to do a shoot with?
I feel like I need to make that a series; now, you have got me thinking, “DWChase Patio Pals.” Well, my speedo wearing friend Tim had been an online friend of mine forever. It was great finally having him in Galveston to hang out with and tan with. Hey, I am open to anyone who wants to hang out and take pics. I sadly don’t have a lot of model friends, and I am not sure why. So, DM me! Ha ha
Has anyone ever busted you when you were trying to take the perfect pic? Or do you have an interesting story about taking your own pics?
That has happened once or twice on an actual photoshoot—less busted, but more “people in my way” type of thing. But I tend to gravitate towards more secluded locations anyway. The only interesting story I have that would fit here is a few people from my gym have found me on Twitter, haha.
Sunset by Trey’s Photo Studio (Galveston, TX) Charlie by MZ
When not modeling, what is your favorite style of underwear to wear? (Thongs, jocks, briefs, bikinis, trunks, boxer briefs). Also, what is your favorite swimwear to wear? My everyday underwear is Tani Briefs, my every other day gym workout alternates jockstraps, which I usually post on Twitter. Briefs for underwear is my preference, and bikini style cut for swimwear. My current favorite pair (changes constantly) is probably a hot pink bikini cut suit from Modus Vivendi.
What is your opinion on swim thongs? Do you like them? And wear them?
I did some photos in one while in Puerto Rico. I am not a huge thong person, but they do look pretty hot for photos. I certainly can’t make them look as good as Jf De La Torre!
Jock Strap hike by Mello Mikie (West Texas) Rufskin Denim
What is one word that describes you?
diligent
What is a fact about you that would surprise our readers? (are you shy? Love disco? Know all the words to Star Wars?)
Oh, there are lots. Here are a few quick ones. I’ve never drank alcohol, never been to a bar, never smoked; I mostly only listen to instrumental music (mainly Hawaiian Slack Key Guitar). I haven’t had pizza in about a decade. I hate Disney movies, loathe animated anything. I can’t stand the temperature under 60 degrees, and I don’t celebrate holidays or birthdays.
In honor of an interview coming up today. We thought you guys needed to see the new Mertailor Men underwear. The prints kinda match the swimwear. These Octopus briefs are awesome
