I became interested in sexy underwear over 20 years ago when I saw Covington bikini briefs at Sears one day. I would mainly wear boxers when I knew I would be around females and kept my fetish to myself for a long time. But now after being married for 14 years, it’s wasn’t easy keeping to myself. My wife does not like the underwear I wear but understands and is ok with briefs. She doesn’t like the thongs or jockstraps at all. After being honest with her and explaining why I choose to wear these styles of underwear, she tolerates it. (She thinks that I wear gay underwear) so I continue to wear what I want when I want but also respect that she doesn’t like when I wear them so, I still wear lots of boxers to bed and lounge around the house. Happy wife, happy life right?

I do not do social media and do not ever post pictures of myself in underwear. I will continue to use this platform to do so. I mainly wear briefs to work and change into thongs when I get home. I change out of my construction clothes when I get home every day. Sometimes I wear thongs to work(always with my belt on tight!) Some of my favorite brands are Andrew Christian, Obviously, Pistol Pete, Big Boys Pants, and N2N. I have approximately 75 pairs. I am a Medium in almost all brands and a waistband is a must for me.

This pair in the picture is by Cover Male. Model CML006 g-string Black, size medium, enjoy!

Alongside leopard spots and camouflage, lace has become a fashion perennial in men’s underwear. Every year or so there are headlines about lace becoming a new ‘thing’, but it’s here to stay – and has been for a while at Deadgoodundies.com in the UK. Male lingerie made its debut more than a decade ago (remember HOM’s 3001 collection?) yet true lace designs, rather than translucent tulle or mesh, are still considered more daring, outré and, for some, risky. Fearless Brits are consistent buyers of lacy undies, from micro strings to long leg boxer briefs and leggings, skin tight t-shirts to wickedly wonderful bodies. Good job DGU sends everything in plain parcels!

Express yourself in lace from European male lingerie specialists L’Homme Invisible who also create great devoré and tattoo effect men’s underwear.

L’Homme Invisible Ocean Life V Neck T-shirt £84

 

An early arrival for autumn is the French brand’s subtle take on lace – an ultra fine leaf effect fabric. Part of a botanical inspired collection from HOM.

HOM Autumn Trunk £32

 

If you love lace, Manstore from Germany is one of the go-to brands on DGU. Their Cheeky Body in azure or apricot with a strappy front and racer back earns the name for sure!

Manstore M766 Cheeky Body £57

 

Did we say daring? Joe Snyder’s designers are maestros when it comes to combining minimalism with maximum impact – and enhancement. Their latest Bulge offering comes in black or white lace, tulle or lots of solid colours.

Joe Snyder Thong Maxi Bulge 06 £27

 

Dip your toe into the lingerie experience with a Doreanse short that adds an opaque pouch to luscious lace. This look is also available as brief 1353 (£13) and longer leg boxer brief 1953 (£21).

Doreanse 1952 Lace Boxer £17

 

Yes, a LACE jockstrap. Quite something isn’t it? Joe Snyder’s limited edition comes in black or white and one size.

  • seam in the back
  • mesh in front bunches up

 

Another round of Bum-Chums and I was curious to see how these felt since they were different than just about any other pair of briefs I own.  The bright orange color (Sol) stood out immediately, as did the mesh on the sides and back.  I’m always up for trying something new when it comes to undies and decided to go for it and wear these to work for the day.

The fabric of the pouch is 95% cotton and 5% Elastane so they were soft with a bit of stretch.  The mesh is 95% Polyamide and 5% Elastane.  The back is totally see-through so modesty is not what these are made for!  An interesting design feature – the mesh goes all the way around, even over the top of the pouch, creating a bit of a flap.  I’m guessing that’s supposed to be the “tool belt” design of these briefs.

Sizing seemed on par with other brands.  I’m a 32 at the moment and the medium was a good fit.

I love wearing a new, sexy pair of underwear and these accomplish that.  Mesh is fun and I like the orange pouch, which was nice and comfortable, with enough room for everything up front.  Where I ran into some trouble was the back.  Where the orange fabric comes up and meets the mesh, there is a rather large seam that is very noticeable.  I think maybe the two materials coming together creates a bit of an unsteady seam that is almost wavy if that makes sense.  The point is, about a third up the way up your butt, you can feel the stitching and the seam does not lay flat.  Not the end of the world but the feeling doesn’t get less noticeable – even after an 8 hour day!  I think it took away from the look, as well.  I would have preferred the entire back panel to be mesh and connect down between your legs.  Another issue that didn’t affect comfort, but style, is the mesh going across the front. It didn’t do much except bunch up a bit.

Overall, an interesting pair and I love that brands try new things.  Maybe some seam adjustments would help but I wouldn’t say these are in the everyday rotation – more for fun and showing off.

Thongs are a pair of undies and swim that guys either love or hate. We have several thong questions on the survey. If you love them or hate them let us know. Thongs are spanning all sexual orientations and ages. Many of you guys are going straight to the swim thong and skipping over the swim brief. It’s very interesting.

Love or hate them, help us figure out if we need more thong content or….

Right now I LOVE flamingos. Many brands are also loving them and putting them on their underwear and swimwear. Marco Marco has taken the flamingo print to the next level with their new Nautical line. I hear many of you go, what’s the big deal? The new print is UV reactive! After a day of showing it off at the pool wear it to the club and show off your Blacklight colors.

The new Nautical comes in a brief, halfmoon brief, and a harness. You can wear the pieces together or separate. The harness can be worn for a night out at the club with jeans, shorts, or the Nautical line undies! They are all just super fun! The briefs, other than the club, can be worn under anything. I would admit I”d love to see a guy in a navy power suit wearing this pair under, and of course with a pink tie.

This line is probably one of my favorites from Marco Marco. Not just the flamingos but the colors. Blue, white and pink all go very well together. The print is very well designed. Let’s talk about the halfmoon brief. It has a halfmoon cut out at the top by the waistband. Then in the back, it has the flamingo fabric up the center of the back!

Check out the collection and also the swim briefs! Marco Marco makes some awesome gear, and we look forward to more.

Its all about undies. Do you wish you could share your undies love with your favorite blog? Well, here is your chance! Just kidding, but we are conducting our Annual reader survey. This helps us in many ways. First, it will help us develop content. Seeing what you guys like and don’t like. It even track them over time, which styles get popular and go out of style. A new addition is fetishwear. It’s something we want to cover more, but want to track you guys like best. We will continue to bring new trends and brands as well.

Next we share some of the data with brands to help them formulate promotions for you guys. We have had promotions in the past that we told the brand it won’t drive traffic. Now we have the evidence that it won’t move the needle. I know you guys LOVE sales! Lastly, we will share the info with you guys. It’s always fun to get a peek in another’s underwear drawer!

Here is the first of the Real Guys on UNB. jets83  submitted these pics. Here is a little about him.

  • Location: Melbourne, Victoria, Australia.
  • Stats: 34 years old.  5’10” 90kg . 36″ waist

I have enjoyed underwear for about 15 years.  Cannot recall what attracted me to try something other than the standard briefs/trunks that were available here in Australia.  I think it could have been seeing something on TV.

For a long time, I hid my underwear from everyone.  Over the past 7 years, I have been more & more comfortable in my choices & not hid them as much.  My partner has allowed me to be even more comfortable in my choice of underwear.

I wear thongs on most days of the weeks, jockstraps come in second.

I wear them as I find them comfortable & are also a way to feel sexy.  A small way to show that I am comfortable in my own skin & the underwear the I wear.

I post pics of myself on a regular basis on my twitter which is @jets83

What would a Gregg Homme line be without some super fun pairs? By super fun pairs, I mean ones that take underwear and redesign them in a fun way. The Conquistador uses gold buttons and strings to create some pairs that you are used too. However, it’s got the sexiness factor turned up to 11.

I hear some of you saying, yeah the gold buttons are a nice accent. They are more than an accent, they are fully functional. Meaning you can unbutton them where ever they are. This could mean easy to put on or even easier to take off. Match that with the semi-sheer material and you have a super sexy line.

The line comes in a Jock, Thong, Brief and Boxer briefs. The only one missing is the string, but when you see the thong, you could say it’s a string! Each one of the designs given the Gregg Homme Conquistador twist. As you can see in the main pic the three buttons on each side can be removed. The jock, the straps button on the small waistband. The others have very similar design functions.

The only colors in this line are red or black. Which is perfect for the line. The red/black combo is my favorite. The pair just is set off with the black trim. It reminds me of some something ancient Roman or Greecian. A pair you could see an ancient warrior going into battle. Or maybe it’s me projecting the movie 300 in my mind.

Have you wanted to share your love of underwear with us at UNB? Now is your chance. This will help us tailor content, share with brands (to get more reviews, pics and news), and even share the results with you guys. I mean, if you could peek in another guy underwear drawer wouldn’t you?

We are only collecting emails if you want to share your story or want more info about it. It’s 100% options. Outside of that, there is no collecting names, social media handles or any other identifiable information. Making it this way I think we get more honest answers. You can be free to share everything and no one will ever know!

You can take this survey below or go directly to our Google Doc Form at https://goo.gl/forms/yLhMQwtGHojZuao23

If you are a long time reader of UNB, you know every year we do a reader survey. It’s usually in May but this year we are doing it in July! You maybe asking why are we doing a reader survey?

  1. Helps us make content you guys love reading
  2. Gives us data to show brands the success of our posts
  3. Helps us reach new brands with data and demographics of readers
  4. It gives you guys a look into other readers!

This year we have changed things up a bit. Instead of a long list of questions, we have broken them up to different pages. It’s just as long but the pages/sections will break things up. More questions are click a button rather than fill in a long or detailed response. After three to four years of data, we have the main choices in a lot of categories and you can still write things in the other section.

One thing to note is we are not getting any identifiable information. We are not collecting names, emails or phone numbers. So you can be 100% honest and no one will know who you are! I know many do not want to let the world know they love gear.

One question we are asking is if male or female. Our Google Analytics says that more women are reading the blog so we want to see how many will fill out the survey.

We will be sharing the results. Now that the survey is less interpretation, it will be able to be reported a lot sooner than previous years.
