Xtremen releases extended sizes!

1 Comment

If you are like me, a bigger guy, you miss out on a lot of pairs of underwear out there. The sizing doesn’t go above 40, or 36 inches sometimes. BUT, your wait is over. One brand that is branching out beyond the smaller sizes is Xtremen.

Xtremen has been around for a few years. They got started by making boxer briefs and have added briefs, thongs, and jocks to their line up. But, their sizing was on the smaller end. No more, they now go up to XXX-Large. The 3X goes up to 42-44, while not inclusive to guys on the larger end, it’s a step in the right direction.

One thing I think many brands forget to take into effect is taller guys. I am tall and beefy. And even with losing weight, I think I look best at a 36ish waist size. When I was a 32 I was too thin. It’s great to see this and we have a few more brands following suit and we will see more brands create extended sizes! For that we say Hurrah!

You can find the new Xtremen Xtended sizes at the UNB Store Now!

Review – Butch Underwear Crown Jewel Briefs

No Comments

The Butch Crown Jewel Brief was provided by Butch underwear. All opinions expressed in this review are my own. 

Rating: 10/10 (Average of the ratings below)

  • Daily Fit: 10/10
  • Sizing: 10/10
  • Construction: 10/10
  • Styling: 10/10
  • Daily Performance: 10/10

Pros:

  • Made for bigger guys and will fit you the way underwear should be 
  • Sizing should fit any guy up to XXX-Large
  • The waistband was super comfy

Cons:

  • Some guys may not like the classic design
  • Some guys may not like the limited color choices

Tim’s Recommendation: 

If you want to get a great pair of underwear for any size guy, Butch is your brand. It’s well made, fits great, and made for guys of all sizes. There should be no sizing issues, either. I felt great wearing these all day. 

Butch is a new brand that I ran across on Instagram. They are a brand that makes undies for all sizes but markets to the bigger guys. Being a guy with a 42 waist currently, this is great! They sent me a few pairs to try, and I was super excited. 

I gave these a real review and wore them on a trip to the botanical gardens for the day. In the age of COVID, I needed to get out and out of the house. Nothing was better than social distancing in nature. Which, I didn’t see many people out there. It was HOT out there, and I did a lot of walking, which I discovered how out of shape the COIVD pandemic has made me. That being said, the pair were excellent and fit so well. There was no riding up; it breathed and gave me such great support. 

These briefs are well made. The fit and the feel, you can tell it was designed for a bigger guy. A lot of times, brands create the medium and resize from there. This pair seems it was designed just for me. One thing that amazed me is the waistband. It’s not a waistband design, but the construction. The band never dug into me and fit like a pair of underwear should fit. It wasn’t too tight. Some brands the waistband is too tight for the pair. You can tell the guys at Butch thought about their design for all guys and put their love of undies into this pair. 

Sizing is always an issue when you are a bigger guy. Not with Butch, they have sizing from Small to XXX-Large. I got an XL, and it fit perfectly! They are based out of Australia and have pretty standard sizing. If you are on the larger side, check out the size guide for the right size. I don’t think you will go wrong by following their guide. 

This pair was a classic design but really well made. The sizing and fabric are great. This pair is designed for bigger guys to feel amazing and sexy while wearing. I really loved wearing this pair and plan on wearing them in my regular rotation. They are awesome! 

PAIR: Butch Crown Jewel Brief
COLORS: Red, Black, and White

RAW STUDIO BLACK-OPS JOCKSTRAP SALE – 30% OFF THE WORKS

Gear up in something unique instead of some mass-marketed jocks that everyone has. Get 30% off this unique collection of hand-crafted jockstraps (and harnesses) from Raw Studio. We’ve got all sorts of hot new Raw Studio gear heading your way so we’re making room on our shelves and clearing out last years designs.

Embrace the dark side with Raw Studio’s Black Ops collection. This practically exclusive collection of jocks are made with leather, neoprene and some of the slickest modern-day fabrics with unique detailing all designed to show off your full potential. It’s a collection that’s as much fetish as it is club and perfect for your next Black Party, New Years Eve Bash or other Black Tie Event.

There are ten jockstraps and strapless jocks available in this collection and too many to get into all the specific details here in this newsletter so just head to our website to check them out and snag them before they’re gone for good.

What we love most is the leather jocks are made with Keoto leather. This leather is remarkable in that it’s as soft as lamb’s leather but it’s cow hide so it’s super strong. The inside of the leather feels like a very soft suede – your boys are going to love being in these jocks. Besides leather, some are made with a unique leatherette PVC, slick rubber-like polyurethane and a variety of mesh fabrics that go from subtly see-through to fully see-through.

Along with the jockstraps there are also three solid and mesh strapless jocks (Raw Studio calls them “socks”) – they’re simple yet ingenious consisting of a waistband and suspended pouch and nothing else. Think jockstrap without the leg straps. With a super contoured pouch and a short cut elastic, together they form a cup with a small opening to cradle your boys to perfection, the elastic sits high behind the balls. The best part is because there’s no straps pulling the pouch down, you’re able to hang naturally and free with an awesome bulge

Review-Box Menswear Total Comfort Lounge Leggings

No Comments
Box Menswear Texas October 2019

Box Menswear provided the Total Comfort Lounge Leggings for review. All opinions are that of the reviewer and are not influenced by Box Menswear.

Rating: 9.4/10 (Average of the ratings below

  • Daily Fit: 10/10
  • Sizing: 9/10
  • Construction: 10/10
  • Styling: 9/10
  • Daily Performance: 9/10

Pros: Comfort, Fabric Performance

Cons: Limited color options, Need to be worn under something in public

During the last few years, I’ve really gotten into leggings. My collection of them may not be growing as quickly as my underwear collection, but slowly I continue to add more to my collection. Therefore, I was obviously excited to have the opportunity to try the Total Comfort Lounge Leggings from Box Menswear.

I appreciate the straightforward name of these leggings, and found they really live up to their name. They are totally comfortable and they are prefect for lounging around.

The bamboo fabric of these leggings make them not only comfortable, but functional as well. The fabric absorbs moisture so it will wick away the sweat in the summer and help keep your body warm in the winter. The perfect fabric for year-round use. These certainly could be used for workouts or running, due to the fabric and the cuffs around the ankles to keep them in place. However, the white fabric is pretty translucent and will show anything you have on (or don’t have on) underneath. Because of that, you will likely need to throw some shorts over these if you plan to wear them out of the house. I’m not a fan of the shorts over leggings look, so I’ll stick to lounging around the house in these.

For sizing, I usually order Medium when it comes to leggings, and found that was the best choice for these. Just as a frame of reference, I found I should size down one size in Box Menswear underwear, but I think when it comes to their leggings, you’re best to stick to your usual sizing.

I am really glad that I had the opportunity to give these leggings a try. I can tell that I will get a lot of use out of them. The comfort level is fantastic an I really love the bamboo fabric. I hope Box Menswear expands some of the color options. I think some darker colors might make these more functional outside of the home, without having to throw shorts over.

PAIR: Box Menswear Total Comfort Lounge Leggings
COLORS: White, Grey
FABRIC: 95% Bamboo 5% Spandex
SIZES: S-XL

COST: $60

Review – Box Menswear Red Jockstrap

No Comments

Box Menswear furnished the Men’s Red Jockstrap for review. All opinions are that of the reviewer

Rating: 8/10 (Average of the ratings below)

  • Daily Fit: 7/10
  • Sizing: 10/10
  • Construction: 8/10
  • Styling: 5/10
  • Daily Performance: 8/10

Pros: Construction, Sizing

Cons: Style, Pouch, Price

Box Menswear is a brand I’ve seen a lot of on social media, yet I had not yet tried. I was excited when I received a couple of jocks to try. While I would recommend both, this particular one comes with a more limited recommendation. Read on to understand what I mean.

Let’s start with the good…this jock held up well for a workout. It checked off the boxes for me for being comfortable and keeping everything in place. That said, where it lacks for me is in design. It’s a very simple and basic design, which isn’t my taste. There just isn’t anything, desig- wise, in this jock that really stands out among a sea of jock brands. That makes me feel the price point is a little high for such a basic design.

As far as construction goes, this is a solidly constructed jock, sure to stand up to lots of workouts over time. The straps around the butt were pretty comfortable (which isn’t always the case with jocks). The area where I encountered some issues was with the pouch. While everything fit, I felt as if my equipment was being flattened. This would be a jock I’d wear to the gym, but not one I’d wear in the bedroom if I were trying to make an impression with my package. That said, the cotton fabric of the pouch itself is comfortable, so it really depends on what activities you plan for this jock.

Now let’s take a minute to discuss sizing. I always recommend that guys pay attention to size charts as they can vary from brand to brand. This is certainly the case for Box Menswear. I usually wear a size medium and likely would have ordered that had I not paid attention to the size chart. Turns out that I actually needed to order down a size too small! So if you’re someone who feels a little self-conscious about your weight, Box Menswear might make you feel just a little bit better!

Overall, this jock is okay. It doesn’t really excite me, but it’s solid for a workout. I think this jock would appeal more to a guy looking for function over fashion. It holds up well for a workout and is comfortable, so give it a try if the style catches your eye.

PAIR: Box Menswear Mens Red Jockstrap
COLORS: Red, White, Black
FABRIC: 92% Cotton, 8% Spandex
SIZES: XS-XXL (30″-40″)

COST: $30

Review-Box Menswear Totally Transparent Varsity Mesh Jockstrap

No Comments

Box Menswear provided the Totally Transparent Varsity Mesh Jockstrap. All opinions of the review are my own and were not influenced by Box Menswear.

Rating: 9.4/10 (Average of the ratings below

  • Daily Fit: 9/10
  • Sizing: 10/10
  • Construction: 10/10
  • Styling: 9/10
  • Daily Performance: 9/10

Pros: Sex Appeal, Comfort, Sizing

Cons: Only one color option, Price

Having seen, but never tried Box Menswear, I was excited to have the opportunity to try a couple of their jockstraps. Out of the two I tried, this was, by far my favorite.

I found this jock to be perfect for lounging around the house and for fun in the bedroom. I think it could also be a sexy fun secret under your work clothes in an office setting (if those settings still exist). I found this jock to be the perfect combination of sexy and comfort, which isn’t the easiest to achieve!

Let’s dive into the sexy and comfort aspect by talking about comfort first. The moment I opened the package and felt the fabric in my hands, I knew I was in for a treat. The Polyamide/Spandex mix feels smooth and sexy against your skin and the design of the pouch allows everything to hang naturally and comfortably. The sex appeal is brought out nicely by the thin, transparent fabric and is elevated even more by the mesh side panels.

As far as sizing, these really fit like a glove….as long as you get the right size. I found that I had to go down one size based on their size chart. This was an added boost to the self-esteem, especially after packing on some quarantine pounds

Overall, there are few things I didn’t like about this jock. The price point is a bit high, but the fabric, quality construction, and sex appeal are all there and justify the price point in my opinion. If you’ve been on the hunt for a jockstrap that is both comfortable and sexy, this is one you should add to your collection.

One line everyone raves about from N2N Bodywear is the Vintage Brushed collection. Andrew has released these a few times and now the line is bright neon!

The one reason this line is so loved is the fabric and the fit. The fabric is so soft against your skin. It’s amazing how well this one feels. Then there is the pouch. It gives you some of the best support on the market.
