One thing lately that I have become obsessed with are Flamingos. I don’t know what it is about them over the last six months but I am loving everything flamingo. While surfing through the Andrew Christian site I spotted something that mixes two of my favorite things. Flamingos of course and the Almost Naked pouch. To me, this is hands down the best pouch in the Andrew Christian line up. It’s always been my favorite, not to knock the other pouches but the Almost Naked just fits me amazingly.

If you happen to be like me and are loving flamingos, this print is available in a jock and a brief. It’s in the category that I”m not sure which one to get, but I may have to break down and get both styles. The print is an aqua color with black horizontal stripes and Flamingos placed through out. It’s totally tropic/Miami looking to me. Top that with the black waistband and trim and I’m sold!

This is what the AC site says about the pair:

“Oh My” are probably the words that come to mind? Introducing one of the cutest prints ever seen, the limited edition Almost Naked Flamingo Brief. This one of a kind brief features dark contrast trim on vibrant aqua color fabric with bright pink flamingo print & black stripe details. The signature Andrew Christian slimming waistband, the classic laurel cross flag, and it’s flattering slim fit will make this pair your absolute go-to on any given night,”

Don’t wait around too long! This is a limited edition print and better get it early. I am in the same boat, I will have to break out the wallet and get it. The Fabric Content: 90%POLYAMIDE 10%SPANDEX. The brief retails for $18 and the Jock retails for $16. Both are reasonably priced.

If you are interested in the Flamingo Brief or Flamingo Jock, head to the Andrew Christian site now! Don’t wait.

When you think of great men’s underwear. I would bet N2N Bodywear is one that is high on many of our reader’s list. This year marks the 20th anniversary of the brand. We get a chance to interview Andrew Makay on the last 20 years and what the future holds! We will link to other interviews we have done for a bit more history. We will try not to cover the things we have asked before.

We have interviewed you a few times Andrew. When you started the journey into the men’s underwear market did you picture you would be doing this 20 years later?

Haha…absolutely not…I decided to take a break from acting, having just come off the national tour of “Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat”. Thought I’d take a stab at this gloried hobby of mine…well, the rest is history…haha

You are not only an icon in the gay market but also the straight underwear lover. Why do you think that both gay and straight have embraced the brand?

I have designed every pair of underwear off my body. If it’s not comfy…it doesn’t get made. If the fit is not right, it doesn’t get made. I don’t think it matters if you’re gay or straight..GUYS like underwear that fits well, is comfortable and flatters the male form.

Has this been the key to the success of N2N Bodywear?

I’d say yes. Also, the fact that I don’t jump on what’s hot or “the next best thing” …I design pretty organically. I get inspired and it gets designed.

One question I have meant to ask, how did you create the N-hance pouch? This has to be one of the top 5 pouches in men’s underwear. Did you know had something incredible when it was created? If not when did you know?

Again, since I designed everything off me, I created a pattern and style that made me look really good. Enhancing what I already had….showed me off better than anything I found at the time…I had a feeling the guys would like it too!

What have been the highlights over the last 20 years? What have been your best sellers? Best Models? Biggest celebrities wearing N2N?

I’d say one of the biggest highlights was a few years ago when Neil Patrick Harris said his favorite underwear at the time was N2N! That was in Vanity Fair…pretty awesome! I was the premier underwear brand for the grand opening of Cirque de Soleil’s first gay night at LIGHT nightclub in Las Vegas. That was spectacular! The fact that I had William Gutierrez AKA William Levy, biggest Latin soap opera star as a model was pretty darn cool. Along with him was Alan Ritchson, who went on to become a celebrity. To identify the most popular collections is easy as looking at the site and seeing what has been there for over 5 years…the NET COLLECTION and the CLASSIC COTTON COLLECTION are two that have been consistent in their sales and popularity.

The 2017 collection, you told me you would be releasing things through out the year. What can we expect out of this collection? What surprises do you have in store for die hard N2N Fans?

We have been doing a rollout of a collection this year to try something different. Keeps the website fresh. Very shortly an underwear collection will be released much to the pleasure of many fans. It is a take on a very popular and requested collection I discontinued a while ago. it is the Mohave Spring Collection. A slightly tweaked yet more colorful version of the older style.

Over the years you have been known for your prints, even before the recent trend in men’s underwear. Why do you use prints? How do you find such awesome prints?

I use prints because I get a little tired of solids, to be honest haha. There are so many different kinds of prints available, it’s nice to take a chance on them and get creative. I say take a chance because historically prints are a slower seller than the safe option of solids. I have fabric vendor that show me what new prints are in stock. Sometimes I will randomly find ones that I just have to use. I like when that happens…again, very organic and spontaneous.

Each year you come up with creative fun to wear styles in the erotic wear. Why is designing eroticwear so important to who N2N?

The erotic collection has always been a staple and an important part of N2n’s repertoire. I was always intrigued by the erotic fashions available but would never wear them myself. I designed items that I found sexy, that I would wear. Styles that could not be found…unique enough to garnish attention from even hardcore enthusiasts.

NOTE: Andrew is one of my all favorite people in the men’s underwear world. He has always supported UNB and everything we have done. I want to personally congratulate him for 20 years making amazing underwear and gear.

You Guys love thongs. It’s one thing that we get more comments on when we run posts. More votes when we run polls. They are becoming one of the biggest things in men’s underwear. Last week we asked you if you wanted to or have worn a swim thong before. We gave a few choices including public, private and not at all. Here is how you guys voted

A large percentage of you guys want to wear a swim thong. Which didn’t surprise me. The 22% who have already worn them in public did! Awesome guys. Then we had 22% who have no desire to wear one. We say to each their own at UNB. Not everyone is a fan.

Now we want you guys who have worn the to share your experience and inspire guys to put them on! If you have worn them Share your experience!

Being the editor of an underwear blog, I have to be open-minded and willing to try anything. I have tried some interesting things over the almost 9 years of UNB. From the not so crazy (thongs and jocks), to more cutting edge (Lace and Satin) to some really fun fetishwear. I”m usually up for anything.

Just recently I want to try a body suit. Not just any body suits but one from BodyAware. I don’t know why I have this sudden urge to wear one. I have never worn one but have seen many suits over my life. The ones that have caught my eye have been those with a jock or thong background. I think this may stem from me wanting a men’s gymnastic suit (the one they wear under the pants and shorts) when I was younger. I always thought they were awesome.

BodyAware has more of the Thong back bodysuits. I’m not sure I could wear one all day. But the Modern Jock Bodysuit (pictured above) is one I would love to try out. The bodysuit has one drawback, it’s difficult to go to the bathroom. Most I have seen you have to take completely off, which makes it impractical for everyday or work wear. I mean they would look at little strange at you at work, at the urinal taking off your shirt.

A bodysuit is something that would be a limited war situation. Like out to a movie or something low key. I don’t want to wear it all day and all night. This one I find super sexy because of the black color. Black is super sexy and they tell me slimming. Also, it looks amazing. Granted, I won’t look like the model in it but wearing under a button up shirt would be great. Because, your undershirt aka bodysuit, wouldn’t ride up or come untucked. This is one of the biggest advantages for me. Being a bigger guy in size and height. It can be a pain to have to constantly tuck in my shirt. Lastly, the jock back gives it a bit of a naughty feel to me, which is a good thing. Just will give me that extra bounce in my step.

I’m still debating what I want, but I will keep you guys posted. If you think I should try another let me know in the comments below. Or if you have tried them now let me know how you like them!

We got a chance to interview one of my favorite models DW Chase. We hope you enjoy it as well

Why did you want to get into modeling?

Assuming that means “why” did I get into modeling? Out of boredom honestly. I was a country boy from the backwoods of NC and started posting on Myspace before I started getting serious and getting legitimate offers to do professional photoshoots.

Why underwear/swimwear underwear/swimwear?

Being short, not particularly having a great face, I decided to focus more on my body and then my body hair, which lent itself to less clothing. I became very interested in wearing and promoting swimwear since I moved to an island after college. American’s seem to terrified of men wearing “speedos” or smaller, more comfortable swimwear, so I wanted to be apart of helping educate and making that more of a normal concept.

What do you think sets you apart from other models in the industry?

That I have never been with an agency. My degree is in mass communication and I’ve never understood why most models, or these Instagram stars, sign with agencies when they could book their own shoots and get their own stuff published online. It just takes the incentive to do so. I try to keep my work very updated, and always strive to push forward where a lot of these models you will see them get popular for a small period of time and then disappear.

What shoots have you done so far?(Which brands/photogs have you worked with?

At the moment of this interview, I have completed 112 shoots. I have been lucky and blessed enough to work with talented photographers from all over the globe. Ev Dylan, Calvin Brockington, David Wagner, those photographers really helped shape my image and modeling work early on. Recent photographers like Tyson Vick, Carlos Trey Salazar and Jeffery Beasley have helped push me into new territories of male modeling. I have worked with so many great brands like CA-RIO-CA, Manus, LASC, Mertailor, Marcuse, CharliebyMZ, Salem Alba, Mahjii, the list of swimwear goes on and on.

Underwear has many styles from boxer briefs to thongs. Do you have any pairs you don’t want to wear on a shoot?

I have worn some pretty outrageous stuff over the years, so no, I’ll model anything if the concept, vision, and circumstance is good.

We have seen you in a lot of swimwear shoots, why do you tend to do more swim shoots?

Because I live on an island, I am always in the sun, at the beach. My interest in travel is always somewhere with an ocean or body of water, so I always try to schedule or set up a photoshoot when I travel. Brands are always sending me items to include on photoshoots. It’s just where my interest is.

Are there any underwear/swimwear brands you’d love to work with? Why?

So many great ones I haven’t worn or modeled for yet. Aronik interests me, Ildes have great designs, but honestly, I love discovering new brands that maybe have not hit the mainstream yet. I am always looking to turn someone on to a new brand.

Which photographers would you love to work with on a project?

I want to work with Jorge Rivas again, I have reached out to photographer Menelik Puryear (HardCiderNY) numerous times, he is one of my favorite artists. I would also love the change to work with Paul Freeman and Hayden Su before I call it quits.

You are always posting pics of you in swim briefs on the beach. Have you ever been the only guy in them on the beach when everyone else was in shorts? If so how did you feel?

I find myself the ONLY guy on the beach many times, ha ha. I typically seek out secluded beaches where other people don’t frequent. I am not one for crowds. However, yes, many times, I am the only one in briefs. I wear them because they look better, fit better, are more comfortable, dry quicker and create a much better tan line.

Outside of modeling and working out what do you do in your down time? What are your hobbies and interests?

I have 5 jobs, I rarely have down town outside of work, modeling and fitness training. Whenever I do have free time I like to travel, skateboard, bike and just chill on the beach. I cook a lot too, prepare most of my meals.

What type of fitness regime do you do to keep in shape, and does it change when you do a shoot?

I maintain the same regime all year long, including diet. You won’t ever hear me saying “getting my body back”. I believe in consistency, I’m always ready for a shoot. I don’t take a break from healthy eating or regular workouts.

Models can’t always eat great what is your favorite guilty pleasure in food?

Sure they can, most just choose not to. The only pleasure food I allow myself is sweet tea. I forbid all other bad things from my diet and have for years. I prefer abs over food.

We are an underwear blog so what makes up your underwear drawer? (what percentage of briefs, boxer briefs, jocks, thongs do you have?)

My closet is all briefs. One of my favorite underwear brands right now is Skull & Bones, I did a shoot for them last year, and they are super comfortable.

What is one word that describes you?

conundrum

If you were stranded on a deserted island what is one thing you must have with you?

Logically a knife

What is your favorite color

Grey

What is a fact about you that would surprise our readers? (are you shy? Love disco? Know all the words to Star Wars?)

That my “DW Chase” persona is nothing like me. I don’t party, I don’t go out, I don’t drink alcohol, I don’t curse, and I am not sexually active.

I’ll admit that, despite my self-proclaimed underwear obsession, I’ve never tried a jock thong. I love jockstraps because of the support and how they make my butt look, and I love thongs because of the sex appeal, but I’ve never really understood putting them together. Obviously, there’s something that guys like about them because they’re quickly becoming one of the more popular styles. More and more brands are starting to include them in their collections, such as heavy hitters Andrew Christian, Jack Adams, and PPU.

There are several positives that intrigue me about jock thongs. Of course, they’re perfect for when you want something skimpy, but they also add the uniqueness factor because they’re still not as mainstream as briefs or jockstraps. I like to workout wearing jockstraps, and I know several of my fellow writers enjoy wearing thongs while hitting the gym, so the jock brief would obviously work well in that setting. In addition, it’s an easy solution for when you can’t decide between a jockstrap or a thong. Personally, I like both the strap between my legs and the straps under my butt cheeks, so this would give me both feelings.

Looking at brands that offer jock thongs, there are several things I noticed. The pair from Jack Adams, consistently one of my favorite brands, features a roomy pouch and a thinner thong strap, which makes it good for those who still aren’t completely sold on thongs. PPU has many different types of jock thongs that are mostly provocative and feature many different types of straps in the back, so there’s something for everyone’s tastes. Andrew Christian, a brand I’m sure most are familiar with, has numerous lines that have a jock thong available. In my opinion, I’m most excited about trying these because I’m sure they’re comfortable like other pairs from Andrew Christian and can be worn for any occasion.

Really jock thongs sound like you’re getting the best of both worlds when you wear them. Jockstraps are great for accentuating the rear end, while thongs are great for showing off your package. The jock thong combines these two and gives you the perfect amount of lift everywhere. Overall, the jock thong seems like an interesting hybrid that I’m excited to try in the future.

If you are anywhere in the States I swear it’s a freakin’ heatwave. From the West to the South East. Temperatures in Atlanta have been 90 degrees plus and with 80-90% humidity. It makes going outside miserable. Also, in the west such as AZ, NV and CA it’s been at or near record temperatures. It makes you want to wear the least amount of clothes possible.

However, many out there has a dress code for work. Meaning, it could be a uniform, suit or business casual. There is no way around it. You can wear underwear that will keep you cool throughout the day. There are several ways to choose the best underwear for a cool day!

The first is fabric. Unlike the old days, men’s underwear now comes in so many different fabrics. One of my all time favorites I love to wear in the summer is Modal. It’s lightweight, breathes and feels barely there. It is the “perfect” fabric for hot and humid weather. N2N Bodywear and Cocksox have created underwear out of the fabric and it’s in my summer underwear drawer. Unfortunately, the Cocksox Backstage isn’t made anymore but the briefs are ideal. I’m sure your favorite brand has modal in many pairs.

Another fabric to choose is mesh. I’m not talking the 100% see through but more of the sports mesh line. It’s a solid fabric with small holes in it. One current example is the Andrew Christian Blow Mesh Boxer. AC has always done mesh. While I know mesh is not for everyone but I think it’s something to consider!

The last way you can keep cool is by the cut of your underwear. Go with the dare to bare pairs. I”m talking thongs, jocks and anything skimpy. The less coverage the more airflow you will have down there. One thing I really hate is having to wear long boxer briefs on a hot day. It’s annoying AF. My wearing of jocks go up in the summer. One of my favorites is the Papi Premium Cotton Jock. It has a small waistband with matching leg straps.

We would love to hear some of your favorite summer underwear you wear. Leave a comment or let us know on social.
