Welcome UNB Readers to my first review! Before I get started I want to encourage you all to provide any feedback you may have about my review. I want to make sure I am capturing what you guys want to know more about so if I miss anything don’t hesitate to leave me a comment! Onto the good stuff now!
UNB Tim knows my weak spots and sent me the link to the N2N Raider Singlet awhile back. I am working on a seperate piece to dive into my love of bodysuits/one pieces, but just know the obsession is real. Anyways, once I saw it, I immediately ordered it due to the nature of N2N products going quick. And boy howdy I sure am glad I did! Keep reading to find out why…

Daily Fit: 9/10
Sizing: 10/10
Construction: 10/10
Styling: 10/10
Daily Performance: 7/10
Pros:
Truly comfortable and unless you are wearing nothing else, you will forget it is even on!
Super soft nylon feels AMAZING against your body all day long
Mesh material breathes great during workouts and will get you noticed
Cons:
Bathroom breaks can be tricky
N2N products sell out fast
Too tight in some areas
I would highly recommend this pair (available only on the secondhand market now) but more broadly I would recommend giving N2N bodysuits a try in general. You definitely get what you pay for and in the long run I am seeing the durability outlast many of the cheaper pairs I have bought.
Specifically for the Raider Singlet, this bad boy is hot as all get out and no matter your size or cut preference, if you want a brilliant all-in-one look no further! Going from warm undergear when I am shoveling the driveway to only outfit I need when I work out; it is as versatile as it is sexy!
Introduction Being my first review – and my first recommended pair from UNB Tim – I was both apprehensive but nonetheless thrilled to get my hands wet! I classify singlets in the bodysuit family, so the style was a no-brainer for me. In terms of N2N overall, I have a few of their swimsuits but overall I haven’t delved much into the brand. I have loved the singlets and bodysuits they put out I just couldn’t bring myself to spend that much – I mean how good could they be? My swimsuits from them are fantastic so it is nothing about quality or service at all. Quite the opposite in fact; it truly was me trying to justify the cost. Well, I am here to tell you to save your pennies because they aren’t charging enough.
For this review, and all others, I am a firm believer of putting each pair through its paces. From experience, it is one thing wearing it to bed but something else entirely to go about your day-to-day. I am a fairly active individual and would comfortably say that almost anyone could wear this on a daily basis. From grocery shopping to helping a friend move, it was a universal pair that I often found myself going for but it was already in the wash. What was a bonus is that if you get hot during whatever activity – you can easily wear this with shorts/pants and be totally comfortable.
N2N is no slouch when it comes to the quality of their products and the Raider Singlet continues that notion for me. I have had this now for about a couple of months and after repeated washings and wearings it still looks and feels brand new. The only true critique I have is that the elastic around the legs is firm so allow yourself extra time for the bathroom. That said, it tends to be a common issue depending on the type of singlet so I can’t fault them too much.
Being 6’2” has its goods and bads, and I want to let everyone know that with height comes the battle of size. I am a thinner guy and normally wear mediums in my underwear, but with bodysuits/singlets I have to go up a size otherwise bye-bye shoulders! I find mostly that the height stretches suits out enough to work but every now and then I notice extra fabric in places it shouldn’t be. This was the goldilocks however – no matter what position I bent myself into or stretch I did, this sucker held on in all the right places!
Needless to say, I fear anytime UNB Tim now recommends something as I know without a doubt it will be something I absolutely, positively, 100% must have and cannot live without! Just kidding, I love getting those messages, although maybe not my bank account… If you are able to find the Raider singlet do not hesitate to scoop it up for its flexibility and feel. It truly is a part of my go-to drawer now and have I said how good it makes you look wearing it yet?
PAIR: (N2N Raider Singlet)

If you missed the awesome sale Baskit had last week, don’t fret, the $12 Tuesday sale is back. This is when you get a great pair of undies at a great price. This weeks sale features the (De)Luxe Trunk.
Think luxurious underwear is only for the ladies? Think again. Knit exclusively for Baskit’s De(luxe) collection, you’ll feel the difference when you slip these on. The Low-Rise Trunk provides the classic Baskit fit, but with a lower waistband.
One of the newest swim lines from 2EROS is the Horizon series. You can get the swim brief or the swim shots, or both! Why not cover up with the short and strip down to the swim brief on the beach. We will have this at UNB Store this week!
One of my major goals this year for UNB is to focus on you guys. We will continue to bring you what’s new in the industry and new brands. But, we have seen an explosion of guys posting and sharing their love of underwear and gear.
We want to find guys who will let us share their pics on a one time or ongoing basis. Guys of all shapes and sizes. We may even share some of our pics too. We also want to share how we all fell in love with underwear, and want guys to share their origin story as well.
We also want a group of guys we can ask a question too and get feedback to post on the blog. I love it when we get other opinions about topics. It’s amazing and lets us look at things in a new way.
If you are interested fill out our form below. IF you have any problems with the form email us at info@underwearnewsbriefs.com

Looking for a super cool and retro bikini? If you answered yes then the new Tee Ball is a pair you have been looking for your underwear drawer. The new pair from aussieBum is just a lot of fun.
We are seeing a lot of brands embrace the retro styles. Back in the 80’s bikinis were everywhere. Some of the best were the simple cuts with just a small waistband and white. It takes me back to the classic Jockey Elance bikinis, which I know we have some fans of out there.
Hit a home run in our modern twist on retro style men’s undies. TeeBall is a super soft modal brief with harmonious colourway contrast bind on a neutral base. Light on waistband and superior on comfort, fit and shape; this aussieBum men’s underwear range has a contoured pouch and is sure to be an everyday favourite, so batter up!
The next best thing about this pair is the price. It’s on the lower end of price spectrum. It’s just over $10 (under being on sale).
Pair: aussieBum Tee Ball
Colors: Blue or Red (the top waistband color)
Fabric: 87% Micro Modal, 13% Elastane
Sizes: Small – X-Large
Cost: $12.45
DOH, I didn’t see this till today! LED Queens came out with Valentine’s Day Tights. They are great because they aren’t too specific to just be worn during February. They can be worn year round! Check out these and the other amazing tights at LED Queens site.
Are you in the mood for a little fun? Put on your Maskulo gear and have a great time. We recommend the jocks and harnesses, well we actually recommend it all.
Spandex is growing big time in the gear world. I remember when it first exploded on the market in the ’80s/’90s. Now we see a resurgence of love of all things tight and fun. Spandex comes in a few forms that guys are taking to more and more. They are singlets, runners, Sports Spandex, Spandex suits/Super Hero.
Singlets
Singlets aren’t new; they have been used for HS and collegiate wrestling for decades. However, in the last ten years, guys have been wearing these for various reasons. They can be worn out to a bar, a night in or to hang out around the house. Also, in the last ten years, we have seen singlets that have the back cut out or a snap-on pouch in the front.
Some of my favorite brands of singlets are Go Softwear, N2N Bodywear, Andrew Christian, and Gruff Pup.
Runners/Tights
In the last year, we are seeing a ton of guys wearing runners/tights to the gym. They are doing so without wearing shorts over them. These are amazing to work out in because they give you a lot more support in the legs when doing leg day or something leg strenuous. You don’t have to wear them to the gym; you can mix and match with your other fav fetish gear. Some guys are rocking the bulldog harness with black runners. It’s a super comfy outfit for hanging out at a bar or having fun at home.
Some great tight companies are LED Queens, JOR, Maskulo, and N2N Bodywear
Sports Gear
This whole category came in with UnderArmour. There are a ton of guys loving the look of spandex shirts with tights/runners or compression shorts. This can be mixed with other forms of gear. Usually, it’s combined with football, baseball, or other sport. Those are by far the two most popular with sports spandex.
You can check out Under Armour or Nike for this type of gear.
Spandex Suits
Spandex suits are really taking off. They are so diverse and range from solid color suits, superhero, or full-on fetish suits. Zentai is a “skin-tight garment that covers the entire body.” This could be suits that cover your head or not. If you are unfamiliar with this, google it and have fun. Superhero suits are taking off big time. Cosplay, in general, is growing more and more each year. Guys are creating their cosplay and getting suits of their favorite characters. Last is fetish suits, and these have cutouts, zippers, snap-off pouches, and super sexy designs. You have seen this from Slick It Up.
- Brands for Zentai – I don’t have any good suggestions currently
- Brands for Super Hero – I don’t have any good suggestions currently.
- Brands for fetish are Slick It Up and Maskulo.
Send me your favorite spandex gear brands, and I will recap them. Especially some brands, I may not have heard or had any suggestions.
February of 2020 marks the tenth anniversary of going to Magic/Project. In February 2010, I ventured to Las Vegas for a day to see brands. It branched out to going to Curve and then Project. We have gone consistently over the years. It has been a lot of fun, and I love meeting with the brands.
In 2010, there were two big shows, Magic & Curve. They had the underwear brands evenly distributed. I would spend one day at Curve, then the next at Magic. Sometimes, I would spend two days at Magic due to the number of brands.
Then by 2015, most of the brands were going to Magic and eventually Project (a part of Magic). During this time, Curve was bought out by the owners of Magic and converted to all women’s brands. Less and less brands started to go over the years. But the biggest thing that happened was in 2016. The underwear brands were put in part of the show that wasn’t on the show map. Many missed sales and new customers due to this, and the show tried to make mends. This was it for some brands, and they have never been back since.
This year my first time as a buyer. I didn’t have any issues with my badge (which I had over the years with a press badge). There were about six or seven brands that I needed to see. The heyday of 20+ brands is over. It’s making me wonder how much longer men’s underwear will be represented at trade shows. I think we may have one or two more years. Then brands will be more online.
I don’t have a lot to report on this trip. Some great things are coming from brands, but my trip was interrupted. And it wasn’t a fun interruption. I got what I needed to do and got home. I will cover all the brands I met with and more in the coming months.
Today we feature Andrew Christian. This is Arad in the Fabulous Bubble Butt Jock Thong. I always love the bright colors they use lately.
This past Magic/Project we had a chance to meet up with Stud Underwear! This was the first time since we shot this video. We will bring you more of the amazing new line.
We look back at February 2014, this is a picture from Jockstrap Central featuring their amazing model Trent in Jack Adams. Do you remember Trent modeling for JC?
This week at the UNB Store, we have three amazing brands on sale! You get 15-35% off Clever, Hawai, and Pikante. These three brands are on sale until Tuesday (Feb 18th, 2020). Check out this and all the sales.
