UNB Valentines Day Guide – Classic, Romantic and Erotic

No Comments

This year we decided to do something different in our Valentines Day Guide. I asked our guys to recommend a few pairs. However, they fit in three categories. The first is a Classic Pair, a pair that has classic styling for each guy (note that each guy has a different opinion on each of these, that’s what makes UNB so great). Next is a romantic pair, one you could wear on a date with someone you have a long lasting relationship. Lastly is erotic, something designed to rock the world of your partner you have had or just met. Here are our recommendations.

Classic Picks

The Bottom Drawer: For my classic pick, I’m going to go with Kiniki’s Stretch Cotton Micro Brief. It’s a classic cut bikini with some skimpiness added with it’s low cut and ¾ back. Cotton also comes to mind when I think of classic and these are a 95% cotton and 5% elastane. The 5% elastane makes a big difference and gives these a snugger fit than you’d get with just cotton. Of course you have to have a Valentine color available, which is red for this pair. https://www.kiniki.com/collections/mens-briefs/products/micro-brief-red-stretch-cotton?variant=1170894032

UNB Tim – Xtremen 51388 Microfiber Boxer Briefs Color Gray – Classic doesn’t mean it can’t be sexy. I love the look of long boxer briefs. They gray of these are a classic color. These can be worn under jeans or casual. It can also be under a suit. While not red or black, I think you don’t have to go with those two colors to make Valentine’s Day. https://www.clevermoda.us/collections/style-boxer-briefs/products/xtremen-51388-microfiber-boxer-briefs-color-gray

UNBSandy – Black Silk Heart Boxers by Royal Silk – It’s just fun and sexy to lounge about in a pair of well-fitting and flattering silk boxers covered with bright red hearts! Some guys (of a certain age) like the less-form-fitting aspect of boxers and after all — the silk adds a nice profile! http://royalsilkusa.com/black-silk-heart-boxers-2.html

UNB Bryce – My classic pair is the Saxx Fuse Boxer with the Pineapple Bomb print. To me classic is a pair that would be perfect any day of the week. Saxx is perfect for that, extremely comfortable and designed to help keep your equipment away from your legs. I love the Pineapple Bomb print because the pineapple is fun, and the color is bright. https://www.saxxunderwear.com/us/fuse-boxer-3946.html

Romantic Picks

The Bottom Drawer: For a romantic pair of underwear I normally lean towards a thong. Let’s go with a skimpy thong that will show off all your assets. The Joe Snyder JS11 Rio Thong is what I’m going to recommend. It has nice narrow sides and tail and a u-shape pouch that just keeps everything contained. You’ll get maximum exposure with this selection. For an added bonus these can double as swimwear. It’s available in several good colors for Valentine’s Day. https://joe-snyder.us/js11-joe-snyder-rio

UNB Tim – Gregg Homme Rococo Briefs – Romance comes in many forms. Lace to me is super sexy and romantic. These briefs are made for a romantic evening out. After a candle lit dinner to come home and surprise your partner with these. They are skimpy but not too skimpy. Perfect for a long make out session with your partner!   http://gregghomme.com/rococo/142103-rococo-briefs

UNBSandy – Magic Silk Silk Knit Lo Rise Bikini — nothing says romance like red silk and these knitted silk lo rise briefs are an invitation to a romantic evening no one can refuse! Slip these on and send the message that you don’t intend to wear them very long! These undies feel great whether you’re the one wearing them or the one exploring! https://www.mensunderwearstore.com/prod/magic-silk/MS-6386-RED16.html

UNB Bryce – Pistol Pete Metallica Zip Front Brief. For me romantic underwear is something you want to wear around a special person. What can be more romantic than wearing gold underwear! The pair also features a fully functional zipper on the front for easy access when you need it. http://www.internationaljock.com/pistol-pete-metallica-zip-front-brief-gold,20497.html

 

 

Fetish Recommendations

The Bottom Drawer: Ertoic for me is more sheerness, enhancing pouches, and probably put g-strings here too. None of which I have many of or wear very often and not real wild considering some erotic options out there. I’m going to recommend one that I don’t actually own for this one, but it’s a quality brand that I have several pairs from. I’m going with Bodyaware’s Italian Transparent Tactel Tanga. I have their regular Italian Tanga (not listed anymore) made of the same material and it is sheer and shows everything. The Tactel Tanga is available is some pastel colors that would work great for Valentine’s Day. https://bodyaware.com/collections/tangas/products/q106

UNB Tim – Maskulo Rubber Look Briefs – Suppose you want to get a little wild on Valentine’s day? Something fetish looking but easy to take care of? Maskulo has the Rubber look briefs. Made out of an 80% nylon, 20% spandex / lycra / elastane with a solid waistband. This pair has a detachable codpiece, that they are known for making. The back is a zipper. Yeah, a zipper!  No matter what you are in the mood for that evening, you are covered (Sorry for the pun). Mix this with a harness and some restraints and you have 50 shades of fun. http://maskulo.com/collections/featured-1/products/rubber-look-briefs-detachable-pouch-zippered-rear-black

Underweardude-If I was going for something a bit..different on Valentine’s day, I’d go for one of Pikante’s Castro Thongs. The front pouch is really more like a sleeve so you can show your significant other exactly what you’ve got to work with. https://www.pikanteunderwear.com/products/pikante-pik-8017-castro-thong-color-red

UNBSandy – Good Devil Red Jockstrap — it’s red, backless, with a sheer see-thru pouch — really — what else could a Valentine need? http://www.gooddevil.com/good-devil-gd4818-jockstrap-red

 

UNB Bryce– Gregg Homme Shackled Briefs. What says fetish more than chains and leather? These briefs have a leather like look with chains that hang down over the pouch. Maybe wearing these will help excite your partner into trying something new in the bedroom. http://gregghomme.com/fetish%20look/140803-shackled-briefs

 

These are a few suggestions from our guys. We hope you find a pair you like or it inspires you to find something perfect for your Valentine’s Day celebration.

ASK UNB – What Bikinis Do You Recommend?

No Comments

Undiesfool here! I know UNBTim, The Bottom Drawer, Underweardude, and so many others at UNB (past and present) are huge fans of bikini briefs. I’m curious to know what are some of your favorite bikini briefs. Not just the brand name, but specific pairs if you can name a few. Thanks!

The Bottom Drawer: My favorite bikini is Prevail Sports string brief. It reminds me of a bodybuilder’s posing suit. The bikini has the right amount of noncoverage all around. They have a nice snug fit and holds everything in place. Good selection of colors and prints. Another bikini, I really like is Blueline Microfiber String Bikini. This isn’t a mainstream brand and nothing real fancy about it. It’s a great fit,the right amount of support, and comfort for everyday wear. I’ll wrap this up with another string bikini. Prevail Sports Rio Brief is another I like to pull out if the drawer often. A little skimpier of a string bikini cut. Another one I like the fit, color, and print selection. Great comfort for everyday wear also. The nice thing about all three pairs are they are available under $13 a pair. Hit them on sale and get them for less.

UNBSandy: My all time fav bikini. Style, comfort, look all excellent! N2N Bodywear Classic Cotton Bikini UN11. It’s affordable and not too extreme for the lockerroom! The pouch is incredible and covers my butt without riding up or bunching. Closest I’ve ever come to the feeling of wearing nothing!

Underweardude: Specific pairs..*begins rummaging through underwear drawer*..As always with me and bikinis the Ergowear X3D Bikini springs to mind, the suave edition is better in some ways and worse in others than the original. My favorite pairs that I purchased in 2016 were bikinis, the CockSox CX16N Bikini, with a pouch that is a little less pronounced than the one on the original Cocksox pair, which I like, and the N2N California Dreamin Bikini. It’s from a line that came out year or so ago, so if you don’t have one already you’ve probably missed out on this awesome pair. The fabric is great, the pattern is funky, and the pouch is supurb.
UNBTIM: Great Question Undies Fool! One of my all time favorite bikinis is the Cocksox CX01. It’s a classic and one of the most comfortable pairs I have in my underwear drawer. I have several pairs and have always enjoyed them. I am loving the new colors with accenting leg and waistbands. Also, the pouch is one of my favorites. I don’t think you can go wrong with getting a Cocksox CX01, EVER! Also, another favorite is the Ergowear Sauve X3D Vermouth bikini. It has amazing fabric that’s super soft. A great pouch for added comfort and did I mention great fabric. Lastly, it’s pink, which I love in undies.

Should Single Guys wear sexy undies on Valentine’s Day

No Comments

We do a lot of posts on UNB over the years about what to wear out on your Valentine’s Day celebration with your significant other. This year is no different from others. We have some great suggestions coming this week.  Which I think you guys will like! But, back to the point of this post. Being one of the few single guys on UNB (we have a few of us on the site). I haven’t had a Valentine’s Day Date in a while. Before you go “awe Poor UNB Tim” its’ more my choice than anything else. Right now I feel I am where I need to be in the dating world.

Over the last 8 Valentine’s Days I have run UNB, some years I have said “Fuck it”, I’m wearing something fun. Other years I just simply forgot, don’t you married/dating guys wish you could just forget the day? This year however, got me thinking, why should the single guys be left out of the day. It’s one day where underwear can be celebrated and you can show the sexier side of yourself.

Who cares is you’re the only one going to see it? As we have said many times, great underwear gives you power. It makes you feel more confident throughout the day. I know when I wear something super sexy, through the day I remember what I have on and it makes me smile. Going “Oh yeah I have on (insert pair).” I know many of you do as well.

If you’re single and aren’t doing anything. That morning get up and pick out one of the sexiest pairs you own. It could be a black lace brief under your suit going to the office. A thong under your jeans going to class. A bright colored bikini wearing under your coveralls. Or just a classic pair of longer boxer briefs for a day at home. What ever you are doing, single guys unite and wear great undies. Our married/dating fellow underwear lovers shouldn’t have all the fun on this day!

New Ergowear Feel Suave Collection

No Comments

Ergowear has updated their Suave line. If you haven’t tried the Suave line, I highly recommend it. It is one of my favorite lines in the Ergowear line up. The fabric is some of the softest there is on the market. When you think of great underwear, fabric is pretty high on the list. And according to our readers, a supportive and great pouch. This line has both of those things in one. The pairs I have of the Suave line are in my regular rotation of underwear.

The new release has two colors. They are blue and my favorite green. Match those colors with the Feel pouch. The feel pouch is more of a natural, free hanging pouch. It’s for the guy who wants support but not super enhancing or showing off.  I have had many people comment to me on this pouch is one of their favorites. When you first put it on, mine felt a little strange. It took me a minute to get used to it.

The fabric is 95% Polyester 5% Spandex microfiber. Which may sound like a strange combo. I know there are many hearing “polyester? Nope!” This isn’t your fathers polyester. It’s one of the softest fabric combinations in the Ergowear lineup. I think most guys, who give it a chance will love it as much as I currently do!

Lastly are the styles. It has the Mini Boxer, Bikini and Thong. The Mini boxer is more of a trunk and almost a brief. The bikini is a true bikini (I won’t get into the specifics) and the thong is what you would expect. Any of these would be a great addition to your underwear drawer! Check out the entire collection.

BRAND: Ergowear
PAIR: Suave Feel Mini Boxer, Bikini and Thong
COLORS: Blue or Green
FABRIC: 95% Polyester 5% Spandex microfiber
SIZES: Small – XL
COST: Thong – $27.48, Bikini – $29.48, Miniboxer -$34.66

aussieBum adds new Billy Prints

No Comments

The Billy line has become one of the mainstays of the aussieBum lineup. We have seen it in many forms. One of my favorite were the 80’s Video Game prints they created when it was first released. Now, they have solids and fun prints. The latest edition to the line are the Stars!

The Stars line are a limited edition print. Done in red, white and blue. Nope it’s not for the USA but the same colors as the Australian flag! Each color is the solid back with a contrasting color for the stars. The red and blue have white stars. And the white has what looks to be navy stars.

The Billy is available in the bikini or brief as they call it. And also, the hipster. Which is more of a trunk cut than a boxer brief. Both styles are pretty standard in the aB line up. I think most of our readers prefer the bikini over the hipster. I say this because most of the guys who have bought them and told us about them have bought the brief.

The signature of the Billy line is the waistband. There is no branded waistband on this pair. The description says there is no waistband. It has one but is small. I know we have many readers who hate big and branded waistbands. They avoid them at all costs. Lately, it’s harder to get away from. This is one of the few pairs I can think of that have this type of waistband. If this is you, I recommend checking out the Billy line.

Out now! If you want them get them fast, because limited edition pairs don’t last long!

BRAND: aussieBum
PAIR: Billy Limited Edition Stars Brief and Hipster
COLORS: Red, blue or white
FABRIC: 90% Cotton 10% Elastane
SIZES: Small – X-Large
COST: Brief – $13.75 Hipster – $14.25

Thong Thursday – Why are thongs so popular?

10 Comments

The popularity of thongs is off the chart going into 2017. It’s the new must have style for guys. This is not just for gay guys, the straight guys have take up the thong. Look at our staff TheBottomDrawer, UndiesDude and the Thonged Ginger are all straight guys who LOVE thongs. They are working on a special project for UNB that should be out soon. It’s 100% thong centric, so stay tuned!

Thongs have always had a steady group of guys who loved thongs. Brands such as Joe Snyder and Gregg Homme have always seen loyal thong customers. Now, more brands are starting to make them. Anywhere from regular thongs to erotic ones. New brands that have great thongs are BodyAware and Intymen.

Why do straight guys love thongs? 

I have a theory and my guys on the site can def respond to this in another post. I think the pair has had the “gay” label for so long. It’s a pair guys aren’t supposed to wear. They are “women’s underwear. That’s the general population’s view of them. However, there are guys who don’t follow the norms of society and want to feel sexy.

A few years ago, lace started to get big in the men’s market. This allowed guys to not have to conform to the boxers and boxer briefs guys were supposed to wear. Once guys started to discover great underwear, they wanted more undies that feel amazing. I know we have plenty of readers who tried them reluctantly. Thinking it was like a wedgie or going to be uncomfortable. Only to be pleasantly surprised by the fit and comfort of the thong.

It’s great to see guys try new styles in underwear! It doesn’t matter if you are gay/bi/straight. It’s about being who you are and owning it. Our guys own that they love thongs. They are spreading the word about the style. I would love to know why you guys LOVE thongs!

C-IN2 Culture Club – New Colors!

1 Comment

C-IN2 has added a new color series to its Culture Club line. In keeping with the current assortment of “Pop Art” inspired designs. These 4 new additions won’t disappoint!
 
The four color selections are: Croc Print (green/white), Herring Bone (shades of blue – shown above), Hounds Tooth (purple/gray), and Shark Skin (orange/purple). Each are fun, exciting, and sure to liven up the base layer of every outfit. All four color combinations are available in each of the Culture Club existing core styles: Lo No Show Brief, Hustler Brief, Lo No Show Army Trunk, and Street Jock. This is a limited edition release so if you like them, buy them, as they won’t’ be around forever!
 
As a big fan (and wearer) of C-IN2 briefs, the new color combinations are a vibrant addition to an already great line-up. I’m especially excited to see the Shark Skin combination as one can never have enough orange and purple!
 
Culture Club styles are all constructed with 95% cotton and 5% elastane. Which combine to produce underwear that’s soft and snug enough to create a supportive. Yet not-bashful contoured, center-seam pouch. The line features a wide 2” waistband color coordinated to contrast with the base fabric. Given the comfort, fit, and feel — the entire Culture Club line is great for work, gym, fun, and just lounging.
 
C-IN2 nails the sweet spot between comfort and sexy. The fabric is cool and comfortable all day. The styling and contour are impressive without drawing undue attention. The price point is where one would expect to find high-quality fashion underwear.
 
The four new colors are available now and are being shipped immediately!
 
Brand: C-IN2 Culture Club
Styles: Lo No Show Brief, Hustle Brief, Lo No Show Army Trunk and Street Jock
Colors: Croc Print (green/white), Herring Bone (shades of blue), Hounds Tooth (purple/gray), and Shark Skin (orange/purple)

Introducing GYM Jockstrap brand. When Jockstraps.com received word that Bike was discontinuing making jockstraps, they were shocked because BIKE is their best-selling brand.

Currently the GYM brand is available in 3 different products including the 1” GYM Swim/Run Jockstrap, 2” Workout Jockstrap and 3” Old School Jockstrap.

New Eglick Bodybuilding Gear

No Comments

We don’t cover much bodybuilding gear. However, as our readership expands we plan to cover more things in the gear world. Egick is a really interesting company. They have done some great swimwear and underwear this year. We have shown you a few things and will continue to cover them.

I saw this pair on Instagram. It’s in heavy rotation on their Instagram being so new. It made me head over to the Egick site and take a look. This pair is designed for bodybuilders and posing on stage. That doesn’t mean you can’t get a pair if you want something smaller for the beach or to tan in.

This is their official description:

Our Sexy White BodyBuilding Posing Gear Made From Comfortable Strech Shiny Fabric. Great Sexy Shape For Posing On Stage Or Any Other Place. Perfect Adjustment. Fit to Your Body Perfectly. Thanks to Our Special Cut and Shape You Will Always Feel STRONG, Sexy And Sensual.

The cut of these is smaller than normal swim briefs many of you are used too. It’s designed to show off every muscle. That means there is no drawstring waistband. It’s an elastic waist, if you wear swimming, take note.  It could cause problems if you’re super active.

The pair retails for $65. Some of you may go whoa! But this is specially designed for bodybuilders. If you are in this market, it may be a good investment for you to purchase one of these or maybe two. Meaning the legs and waist are made for your proportions over regular pairs of swimwear.

Lastly, the sizing is Medium through X-large. Which is a 28-36 waist.  Sizing is made for the target market. I don’t think many bodybuilders will be over 36 inches unless you’re really tall. But I could be wrong.

If you are interested head over to the Egick site to see this and more.
