There are two things that I love in underwear. Well, there are more than two, but this new pair from N2N Bodywear has two things that are always top of my list. First, Bikinis are my favorite style. I love the way they fit and feel on. Second, Modal is the best for hot climates and being active. It breathes with you. Check out the N2N Micro Modal Bikini.

MODUS VIVENDI is excited to unveil its latest Fur Line from the Fall/Winter 2024/2025 Collection, blending timeless luxury with bold, contemporary designs. The collection embraces winter with a striking palette of black and white, featuring fur accents on both underwear and apparel.
Accompanying the launch is the “Otherwise Romance” campaign, a romantic, gothic exploration of sensuality and style. The campaign showcases a man adorned in elegant fur designs that echo the cool, stark contrasts of winter nights. Shot in black and white, the imagery evokes a mysterious allure, capturing the essence of romance in a goth-inspired atmosphere.
The Fur Line redefines winterwear, focusing on comfort and opulence. The pieces are crafted to elevate both your loungewear and streetwear wardrobe, offering fur-trimmed underwear and apparel for those who seek warmth without compromising on style.
Incorporating luxurious textures, the collection includes black and white fur accents on signature pieces that embody a minimalist yet daring aesthetic. Whether worn to lounge or layer, these designs reflect the MODUS VIVENDI ethos of high-quality craftsmanship paired with fashion-forward vision.
The “Otherwise Romance” campaign draws inspiration from gothic romance, weaving a narrative of intimacy, darkness, and the allure of the night. Shot against moody, dreamlike backdrops, the visuals feature sleek fur-trimmed garments in monochrome tones, highlighting the contrast between light and shadow. The campaign embodies the power of individuality, merging vulnerability and strength through a modern, romantic lens.
The man featured in the campaign is the epitome of enigmatic elegance. The fur, a symbol of warmth and protection, paired with the starkness of black and white, creates an aesthetic that is both inviting and untouchable. It’s a celebration of contrasts—softness and strength, passion and restraint—perfect for the winter season.

Hey everyone, I’m currently juggling three jobs. I know it’s a lot, but I’m doing what I have to do. I’m looking for a full-time job again, but I haven’t had any success so far. I’ve been going to interviews, but I haven’t received any offers yet. (That’s a whole other story I won’t bore you with.)
I’ve been thinking about the direction of UNB since it’s just me, and my time is limited. I’ll be writing more in-depth about the podcast topics we cover. Don’t worry, I’ll still showcase some of the newest underwear, but considering my time constraints, I think this is the best solution. Plus, I can delve deep into topics I want to cover and share my opinions.
I’m moving away from the more journalistic approach that UNB has taken and toward a more personal and opinion-based approach. I’m creating a positive space for underwear guys to come together and share in a place that understands and supports them.
In the past few weeks, I’ve been physically and mentally drained of creativity. It’s not burnout; it’s just that there’s so much going on that when I get home, I crash. I’m constantly coming up with ideas and topics for podcasts and posts, but implementing them is impossible with my schedule.
Speaking of implementation, I’m trying not to podcast much in December since it will be hectic. I’ve already recorded a lot and plan to record more this month. Don’t worry about me skipping weeks without shows; I’ll have plenty.
Also, I want to hear what topics you guys want us to discuss. I have a fantastic group of regulars, which makes me really happy. They have so many diverse views and opinions. I’ll always be adding more guys too.

MODUS VIVENDI Launches Corduroy Line from FW 24/25 Collection: The Perfect Fusion of Timeless Minimalism and Futuristic Appeal.
MODUS VIVENDI is excited to announce the launch of Corduroy Line, a standout feature in the Fall-Winter 2024/2025 Collection. The campaign, named “Futuristic Simplicity”, draws inspiration from the seamless merging of past and future, creating an aesthetic that speaks to the modern man seeking style, comfort, and versatility.
The Corduroy Line redefines simplicity with a futuristic twist, featuring a refined selection of corduroy designs in velvet-like fabric with bold relief stripes that add a textural element to every piece. These designs come in monochromatic tones of black, grey, and off-white, offering a sophisticated palette that complements any wardrobe. This collection isn’t just about fabric—it’s about creating a tactile experience that combines the rich softness of velvet with the timeless allure of corduroy, providing unmatched comfort and sleek style.
The Corduroy Line was created for the man who values understated elegance without compromising on comfort. The relief detail in the fabric gives each piece a subtle, yet impactful look that is both modern and timeless. Our goal was to design garments that feel as luxurious as they look, while remaining versatile enough to adapt to any occasion.
Key Features of the Corduroy Line:
· Velvet-like corduroy with relief stripes for a textured, luxurious feel
· Monochromatic black, grey, and off-white
· Minimalistic, futuristic, and versatile
· Soft and form-fitting, designed to enhance your silhouette while ensuring ease of movement
Whether it’s the sharp cuts of the jackets, the tailored feel of the pants, or the relaxed elegance of the tops, every design in the Corduroy Line is crafted to provide both structure and fluidity. Each piece wraps the body in softness, enhancing your silhouette while offering freedom of movement.
The campaign imagery showcases a bold vision of the future—clean, minimalist, and distinctly modern—featuring model styled in sleek corduroy outfits that bridge the gap between contemporary and futuristic fashion. The luxurious textures, combined with the monochromatic hues of black, grey, and off-white, offer endless styling possibilities, whether paired with bold accessories or worn as stand-alone statement pieces.
As part of the Fall-Winter 24/25 Collection, the Corduroy Line highlights MODUS VIVENDI’s commitment to creating garments that follow today’s trends while standing the test of time. This collection promises to become a cornerstone for men who want to embrace both minimalism and luxury. The “Futuristic Simplicity” campaign embodies the spirit of a man connected to the present but looking ahead to the future.

I’ve been more active on my Twitter this year, sharing more photos than ever before. In my younger days, I used to post pictures of myself in various stages of undress and underwear all over the internet. However, over the past decade, I gained weight and started feeling bad about myself. I hated the way I looked and didn’t feel attractive when I looked in the mirror.
I know that I’ve posted pictures and received positive responses from guys, but I wasn’t happy with the way I looked. I know many of you out there can relate. Whether you’re in great shape or struggling with weight like me, we all have our issues, and let’s face it: I still have mine. These issues won’t just disappear overnight.
In January 2024, I was diagnosed with pre-diabetes and had to decide whether to make changes now or deal with serious consequences later. I chose to make changes now and focus on my health to avoid potential problems in the future. I have family members with diabetes, and I’ve seen the impact it can have on the body. I decided to let this diagnosis motivate me rather than scare me, knowing that it’s possible to reverse these conditions. It hasn’t been easy, but I know that I’m doing this for myself and not for anyone else.
I’ve set a goal for myself, and I’m proud to say that I’ve already lost 60 pounds and dropped three pants sizes. This is a significant achievement, but my main goal is to maintain this progress and reach my target weight of 225 pounds. At 6’4″, I believe this is a healthy weight for me. I started at 337 pounds and I’m currently at 270. As Lady Gaga says, “I’m on the right track, baby.”
One of the biggest victories for me has been switching from XL to Large underwear (in most major American brands). While it’s bittersweet to outgrow my favorite clothes, I’m excited about being able to wear new brands that I couldn’t fit into before.
I still don’t take as many photos as Stevie or others on the podcast. I admit, I’m not great at taking selfies. JD, who has been on the podcast, says I can improve, but it takes practice. I appreciate the positive feedback I receive when I post photos, but I still struggle with seeing myself as an overweight guy who doesn’t look good in anything. Will this change? I don’t know, but I hope it will as things move in a better direction.
I also want to address how other issues can affect body image. I have a lot of stress in my life, with two part-time jobs and the search for a full-time job. Dealing with underemployment is stressful, and when I add body image concerns to the mix, it becomes all-consuming. I tend to hyper-focus on my body because it’s something I feel I can change, and it distracts me from other problems. Is this healthy? Probably not, but it’s a habit I’ve developed. When the rest of your life feels like a mess, it amplifies the body issues I have.
It’s important for us to come together as a community and have open conversations about this, regardless of our size, shape, or anything else. Even muscular guys and larger guys have their own body image issues, and we shouldn’t dismiss their struggles. Body image issues aren’t always rational; they’re often fueled by anxiety. We need to support all guys who are dealing with these issues. If you’re struggling, you can always reach out to me. My schedule may be busy, but I can make time to chat and provide a safe space for you to open up. It’s not easy to talk about these things for the first time, and you might feel like your issues are insignificant, but they’re not. They are unique to you and can have a real impact on your mental health.
Like you, I’m working through my own challenges and doing my best. I try to be open and share my true self with you—the good and the bad—because it’s important for you to see that even on days when I’m excelling with the podcast, I might be struggling mentally (like I was the other week). It’s okay to say, “I’m not okay.” I’ve done it many times. It doesn’t mean you’re not strong; it means you need someone to support you. When I know I have that support, I feel much better.
Sorry for rambling. I just wanted to share this with you. I’m trying to write more in the blog, but it’s been tough with my schedule and the podcast. I promise to do more soon.
I know we all love body-hugging underwear—something that fits great, provides incredible support, and is fun to wear. Supawear released its Vortex line, which was made to give you all three of these things. Go check out this incredible collection.
