I love it when brand take on the pouch to improve them. It’s the most important part of underwear, as far as I am concerned. 4 Hunks is taking on the traditional pouch and giving it their own spin. We have reported on a few things that 4 Hunks. They are all about making a guy feel sexy and still feel great. The new 4 Hunks is worth checking out. Here is what they shared with us about the collection:

The Pouch Evolution – 4 Hunks Bomber Jock – Pouch Evolution

We believe that is time for an evolution in the underwear world. Therefore we are taking the underwear pouch to the next level. At 4 Hunks we develop the first real seamless pouch technology. The grenade pouch technology provides a full-frontal bulge look, as you have never experienced before!
 
We believe that the grenade pouch technology will empower you to a next level. In addition to that, we designed a pouch; which drives all the attention to the front part, due to the one layer sheer front.
 
The built-in enhancing technology gives your junk an extra support, lifting it up and molding it like a grenade ready to burst. 
 
The most challenging is to design a jock that empowers you on every angle, also from the side and from the back.
For that reason, we create a unique front with low waist, a slim side waist view and a big round butt look from behind to empower you to the next level. 
 
This new technology empowers you to a whole new level!

If you are a fan of metallics and haven’t tried the Liquid Skins collection you are missing out! This collection started with a black then a bright silver. Now they have released the Blue Metalic. Just a note that if you’re like me, some of the XL maybe limited so go shop now or you will be kicking yourself for missing out on this!

The styles released are Liquid Skins collection. Bikini, Sports Brief, shorts, singlet, G, and pants. As I said before it was originally in black and had a rubber-like look. A few years back they released the same line in silver that was super hot. That went away before this year’s collection. The blue is a new and interesting fun new take on this line! Leave it to N2N Bodywear to do something out of the box and rocks it!

I purchased the Jovana Design 4D Thong in neon pink for this review.

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

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

Pros:

  • HEAD TURNING SUIT!
  • Anatomical pouch accentuates your package
  • ANYBODY can find a color they like from Jovana’s extensive palette

Cons:

  • Center/rear strap is almost wider than the side straps
  • Almost hard to get into because the pouch opening is so tight

UNB Ryan’s recommendation: This thong is TINY!  If you’ve ever wanted a true “micro” thong made specifically for men, this is it! It is truly a head turner anywhere you wear it, even when other guys are wearing thongs! I will add that if you are the least bit timid about wearing a thong swimsuit, you should probably try something else before venturing out in one of Jovana’s suits!

Jovana Design custom makes all of their suits to order, and it is evident with the thought that they put into their design options and color choices.  You can customize almost all of their suits to your liking, and they offer color choices to suit all personalities!  Jovana pays particular attention to detail and will craft your suit exactly how you ask them to.  They offer dozens of unique designs, some that are “acceptable” as swimwear, and others that may be better suited for more private occasions.  I am normally pretty bold in my swimwear choices, but this suits’ design, coupled with the Neon Pink fabric even made me a little uneasy the first time I slid my shorts off on the beach while wearing it!  Not exactly outside of my comfort level, but it sure pushed it!

I have worn this suit on several occasions over the 2017 swim season.  I frequently visit the beach on the Outer Banks of NC and a couple of places throughout Hampton Roads, VA where I have worn this suit.  The suit is comfortable to wear long term after you manage to squeeze into it!  The tiny (1/4”) side straps make you quickly forget that you are wearing anything at all (until you get home and see the tiny tan lines it leaves) and the pouch keeps everything in place all day long with minimal adjustments.  The pouch does hold your package in an upright and “package-forward” orientation, so you’ll have to keep that in mind when deciding when and where it is appropriate to wear!  I found that out the hard way last year in Norfolk, VA (more on that in another post.)  You have to manipulate the pouch to stretch everything inside, but once you have the fit is amazing!  There is no extra fabric, and the suit fits like a glove!

I have only purchased this one suit from Jovana, but will buy more from them in the future.  The construction is outstanding and has lasted an entire season without and noticeable signs of fraying or unraveling.  The elastic has retained its strength even with repeated exposure to sun and saltwater.  My only complaint has been the fabric faded fairly quickly.  It has still retained the base color but is nowhere near as vibrant as the day that they arrived.

Again, I don’t exactly have a long-standing history of the brand but feel they are fairly accurate in being sized in accordance with industry standards.  I wear a size small in almost everything, and these were no exception.  The only thing that you need to keep in mind with this suit is that it comes in two different variants, the 4D Thong and the 4D Thong micro (which is what I reviewed.)  The micro is exactly what you would expect, TINY!  The normal version of the suit has a larger pouch which guys who are more largely endowed would find better suited.  The pouch is VERY low and barely covers your package.  I have to pull it up from time to time to make sure nothing is showing that shouldn’t be.  The only thing I would ask for if I were to order this suit again is for the rear/center strap to match the side straps in width.  The center strap is about ¾” in width, which is still fairly skimpy, but feels a but out of place on a suit that is this small, to begin with.

I will absolutely buy more suits from Jovana Design.  I have enjoyed wearing this suit in the sun this year and look forward to replacing it with additional designs from Jovana’s catalog.  I would also like to purchase some underwear for more frequent wear as they have some pretty daring designs in that arena as well.  My big suggestion to Jovana Design (as would be with any other non-US companies) is that they find a way to work with a stateside distributor to make it simpler for ordering and shipping.

BRAND: Jovana Design
PAIR: 4D Thong
COLORS: I reviewed a pair in Neon Pink.  I’m not even going to attempt to list all of Jovana’s color choices here.  You’ll have to visit the website and find a color for yourself!

COST:  £22.99 through Jovana Design’s online store

Underwear sizing is all over the map. Some brands have inconsistent sizes among different lines. Gigo has produced this video to show you what size you are in their underwear. I wish more brands would do this! It’s not the sexiest video but its one that I think will help more guys find underwear.

If you speak Spanish you will be able to read the video text. However, being fluent in Spanish is not necessary. It’s pretty self-explanatory. It tells you how to measure your waist and shoulders to find your correct size in Gigo underwear!

I say great job Gigo!

December 2017. Modus Vivendi celebrates the Greek spirit with the black edition of the Meander line made for the modern Gods.

Following the successful launch of the original Meander line in Spring Summer 2016, the new black addition of the Meander line is inspired by the classic yet contemporary meander design, which is timeless and suitable for every occasion. The Meander Line comprises men’s underwear and loungewear featuring a gold meander (Greek key design) in fashion forward styling.

The line itself showcases bottomless, brief, boxer, tanga, jockstrap and lounge pants, robes, towel robes and towels; the main color used in this line is the black of the God of the underworld, Hades, while the original line used the very Greek white and blue of the Aegean Sea.

The trending Greek style, with a touch of Mediterranean warmth, as presented in this collection of garments, is sure to tempt luxury fashion lovers, and to offer both the utmost in comfort and the absolute best of Greek culture.

Top quality and minimalistic design makes it ideal for every day comfort wear and sport activities. Celebrate the Greek Spirit wearing the Meander line and find your inner Poseidon or Apollo.

The Modus Vivendi Meander line is available from €21.30

Garçon Model is out with a new collection called Gold! This is a mix of classic and modern. You may be asking why am I saying this? It’s because the underwear is a very classic cut and colors. Black and white are the only two colors. Mix that with the two styles of harnesses and you have an awesome combination.

This works so well that I didn’t realize at first the two pairs of underwear could be considered basics. It’s this kind of thinking outside of the box that makes Garçon Model such a force in the world of underwear. The harness comes in two different styles, they are a chest or shoulder harness. The chest is a bulldog type of harness. While the shoulder harness just goes over the shoulders. (as you can see in the pics). They are made out of the same elastic as the waistband of both of the Gold pairs.

Speaking of the Gold line the two colors are named the Miramar and San Marco. The Miramar is the black in the collection, whereas the San Marco is the white. These are the only two colors in the lineup. I usually want there to be other colors but this one is awesome the way it is.

Pick up a pair or two of Gold collection underwear and matching harnesses at the Garçon Model site.

It’s been a while since we last reported on BoyRio, but we can say they are going to make a comeback! They have just launched their Kickstarter to relaunch!  The first time I met BoyRio was in Vegas in I believe 2011. He was showing the line and I met quite a few amazing people that trip that I still keep in touch. Flash forward to 2017 and I was in my hotel room in Birmingham because we were shooting the UNB Holiday Guide the next day. David told me about the campaign over Facebook Messenger and I knew I had to post. It’s been a hot minute since we have posted about a Kickstarter on here. But, this is a brand, I am personally, glad to see back.

If you aren’t familiar with the brand, here is a brief overview:

BOYRIO is dedicated to providing underwear made from the highest quality materials which combine the fresh “boy next door” look with the carefree style of the Brazilian spirit to create the most comfortable, sexy, and body flattering designs. We are proud to offer our consumers a high-quality underwear product that genuinely complements the male physique at its best.  At BOYRIO, we aim to offer our consumers designs that promote their unique style, active lifestyle, and self-confidence.

Why does BoyRio need your help? I”m glad you asked, this is why:

After having taken a previous hiatus, we want to give people the opportunity to get on the ground floor of our underwear relaunch. To create a new collection, we want to invest in the best materials. As we have learned, it is often the small details of manufacturing a garment which can be costliest. We also aim to use funds to invest in a new line, photo shoots, and promotional video production- all drawing upon  the best in creativity and innovation.

If you are interested in helping out and getting some great undies, go over to the BoyRio Kickstarter and donate!

Have you tried Nylon underwear or are you a big fan that can’t find it? Back in the 80’s there were plenty of brands making nylon underwear. Bikinis and briefs were easy to find. Mix the fabric with bright colors and it was a winning combination. Then we moved into the 90’s and we entered the world of black, white, or grey. On top of that was the introduction of the boxer brief. Most mainstream undies moved in this direction. This made many of the nylon underwear companies without a market. They either changed their business model or went out of business.

Over the last 10 years or so I have seen more companies producing the old standard nylon undies. They have a sub “fetish” group under men’s undies that love these styles. I hate to call it a fetish, I should say preference. Before you run out and get some nylon undies there are some things you need to know. If you’ve never worn them, first thing is they aren’t stretchy. If you’re used to spandex and such, these don’t have that much give. Also, they aren’t super body hugging. Which is not always a bad thing. I prefer the brief or bikini cut in Nylon. It sorta creates a pouch out of the fabric that gives you support.

One company that has been around since 1994 is still making these undies. That company is JG2. This is how they describe themselves. They “address a market segment that most designers and manufacturers of men’s underwear routinely ignored, treated as a fashion fetish, or relegated to novelty status. That market segment is: men’s nylon underwear”

They currently offer bikinis, thongs, and boxer (well boxer briefs). The colors are more on the pastel side but I think it really works with the pairs they offer. The pricing is around $15 a pair. I am going to reach out to the brand and find out more info about them. I just wanted to pass this along to you guys who love nylon undies and can’t find them! Shop JG2.

Jocks are not as popular as thongs right now. I say this because we only had 26 of you guys respond to this poll. Which is fine! Next we’ll make sure to ask more thong questions! 2009 was the year of the jock and they have become a staple of the underwear world. They aren’t going away but they still have a loyal following.

Here are the results of our questions:

 

 

 

Here is what you guys said about why you wear jocks:

  • Comfortable, supportive, sexy
  • They support and they turn me on and hopefully turn others on when wearing
  • Makes me feel sexy, it’s a secret to know I have it on
  • Keep junk contained but otherwise feel naked
  • Love the support. Love feeling sexy, flirty and confident.
  • To see what the big deal is about.
  • Comfort
  • Comfort, sexiness
  • Like the support and freedom of movement when playing sports and and the fashion jocks can be super comfy with some sexiness too!
  • I love them and no sweaty ass when doing gym
  • Love the feel on my butt and good support on front side. also I feel masculine wearing jocks.
  • They keep everything in place when I need to move and I feel more athletic in one.
  • good support while working out — if they have a good pouch. Traditional jocks are binding and very uncomfortable.

This is not a scientific poll by any means but it’s fun to see what you guys think. First, It was very interesting to see that 50% of you guys wear them to work and while participating in sports. I was sure the watching sports would have been higher. Next, date night was number two! This I figured would be lower on the list, but its up top. Lastly, is the Gym.  I know many guys wear them but didn’t expect the number to be so high.

I hope you enjoyed participating in this poll and look for more soon!

Fuel the dirty boy in you with Cellblock 13 Octane. It’s a collection of full exposing jock trunks and fetish shorts you (and everyone gawking at you) are going to love. Made with a slick and smooth skin-tight Polyurethane+Nylon/Spandex fabric with lots of stretch with zippers and openings in all the right places. The base color is black with accents in your favorite fetish colors: blue, grey, red or yellow.

Here’s the details:

First the front: Both the jock trunk and short have a unique panel design that includes a full contoured pouch for maximum bulging but the best feature by far is the two side zippers in contrasting blue. Unzip one for partial exposure or unzip them both for the full Monty – and when we say full Monty, we really mean FULL MONTY. There’s nothing hidden except your modesty. Made with the slick black Polyurethane, a fabric that clings and stretches where needed. The pouch is also open from the top if your inevitable erection needs an emergency escape route. The trunk is nice and short and the fetish short is skin-tight with a length just above the knee.

In the rear, it’s quite the sight: With the Jock Trunk it’s all about the opening, with an interesting contrasting panel design and cutout to show off your exposed ass. With the longer fetish short, the focus is on the zipper. In the contrasting color (red, yellow, blue or grey), it draws all eyes to the prize as they wait in anticipation for the grand opening. Even when closed it’s hot as the zipper travels downward from the waistband and disappears into the crevice of your ass cheeks.

Finally, the waistband: Octane has Cellblock 13’s signature one and half inch wide super comfort waistband with sports striping and Cellblock 13 logo front and center. And because CB13 is all about the details, a stunning rubberized CB14 logo in the back.

Once again, with Octane, Cellblock 13 maintains their position as the top sports fetish designer combining unique and overtly sexual styling with no-nonsense pricing.

Of course, words can only describe so much. Be sure to visit the Jockstrap Central website to see our latest model Matthew Eldracher and the return of our deliciously hot ginger cub Zack Acland putting the new Octane gear through their paces. As always, the view is uncensored, full-on and full-frontal.

4 Hunks has a jock many of you will be interested in. The Extra Bulge Jock Bicolour –  Thunder Jock, is one that is supposed to give you an extra large bulge. Enhancing underwear is always popular but mix it with some fetish and you have a winning combination!

The front of the jock is more of a bikini cut than a jock. When you think Jock, you immediately think of a wide waistband. This pair has what would be considered a bikini waistband. Very small covered from the front to the back. The back has about an inch of fabric around the back to give it the look of a traditional band. The waistband plays into the enhancing effect. “Especially relevant is the no waistband, because the jock if made to fit the male body than to the opposite, as a result you get that full dropping packed Bulge look.”

The leg straps are the traditional size. Unlike regular jocks these jocks have a multicolor band. They are black with a yellow or red stripe down the strap. If you couldn’t tell the pair comes in two different colors, Red and yellow. Made out of a 95% Cotton 05% Elastane fabric blend.

This pair really intrigues me in the way it is designed. When thinking of most enhancing undies there are always waistbands, straps and more. To see how they create this effect with this is intriguing. 4 Hunks is on the border of sports gear and fetish. I think that’s the reason I love the designs so much. Mix this with a harness (one from 4 Hunks or a leather one) and it’s a perfect combination!

You can find this pair at the 4 Hunks page!
