Are you a fan of bikinis? Do you want to try bikinis? Are you going to try new styles? If you answered yes to these questions a pair to give a look into is the Pistol Pete Rainbow Bikini. I am a big fan of the bikini cut. We have seen more and more brands make them. Pistol Pete has made every color in the rainbow and then some.

First, let’s talk about the colors. It comes in eight colors. Yes EIGHT! They are orange, purple, black, blue, green, red, white and yellow. It’s got every color of the rainbow! It’s rare that brand release so many colors at once. But, I’m glad they did! Now everyone can get their favorite color in this line.

What makes this a bikini? According to our bikini expert, Bikinisnthongs on twitter, it’s a lower cut, minimal waistband and smaller sides. I think this fits the bill on all three of these criteria. It’s also noted that the back is a full back. I prefer a full back and know a few of our readers feel same. Other bikinis could have a 3/4, half or minimal back.

The size of this bikini to me is almost perfect. It looks to has a front seam. It creates a bit of a pouch. It’s not an enlarging or enhancing pouch. Note that bikinis can have seams in the front, back, both or on the side. Each guy has a preference for where the seam is. I prefer a front seam.

Made out of 80% nylon and 20% spandex, it will have plenty of stretch and give. It will fit you like a second skin. Again, in any color you want! Including my favorite color, GREEN! Find this and a matching thong, the Rainbow Thong, is available in just as many colors.

BRAND: Pistol Pete
PAIR: Rainbow Bikini
COLORS: orange, purple, black, blue, green, red, white and yellow.
FABRIC: 80% nylon and 20% spandex
SIZES: Small – X-Large
COST: $24.50

We continue our day of spandex. Our earlier post was a little low key for spandex. This post is going full on over the top. This is in both color and design. One of my new favorite companies is Bruno Menswear. This amazing company out of Mexico is doing some amazing things in the world of men’s gear (underwear, swimwear and erotic).

We chose the Jockstrap Meggings R&B. This is part of the Intense collection. As the title says, what happens when you cross a jock with leggings. You get this extremely fun pair. Which is basically a pair of long boxer briefs with the back cut out. This style is becoming big in the world of fetishwear.

The next thing that makes this pair awesome is the color. The bright red and blue trim make this pair pop. The blue is the waistband and around the back opening and down the legs. From the front, you wouldn’t know it is backless. I really love how they design pairs of underwear/gear. A lot of their gear just makes me smile.

This fits in well in the Intense line because it’s erotic and fun. Underwear/gear should be fun and make us feel sexy. Think of wearing this under a suit to work for a presentation, or to class for a big text or just out with friends. Or if you’re really bold you can wear out to a bar night somewhere.

I hope you guys will look at more spandex gear and really have fun with it. Singlets, runners, meggings, shorts and more. Some you will be able to wear out to the gym and others are made for at home only use. Either way they should be a lot of fun to wear.

BRAND: Bruno Menswear
PAIR: Jockstrap Meggings R & B
COLORS: Red/Blue

Singlets are a staple in the world of spandex gear. They have been around forever it seems. I got my first singlet  when I was in college. Then they were only sold by stores that had wrestling gear. They were the actual singlets wrestlers wore on the mat. Now we have a world of erotic and fun gear. Singlets are made for everyone and are a lot of fun.

One of the newest singlets is from Go Softwear’s Hard Core line. The Hard Core Titanium singlet. The name sounds super cool. Go Softwear makes more traditional cut singlets. Meaning they are cut like tank tops on the top and go to mid-thigh on the leg. This is one of my favorite designs. Simply because it reminds me of my first singlets.

The Titanium name comes from the metallic side panels. Each side has a bright shiny “titanium” panel. It adds just a bit of flash to the pair. Which I like, because a solid black singlet your body can get lost. You need an accent color to give the pair some form. Strategic placement will allow you to show off your body more.

The price of this singlet is great too. At Just $38.50, it’s not a bad price at all. Singlets can range from the 30’s to the upper 90’s. If you’re looking to try a singlet this is a great starter singlet. It’s not too over the top and it’s at a great price.

The Go Softwear Hard Core is their fetish line. It has a little bit harder design than the typical Go Softwear, but that’s what makes it fun to wear!

We are working on a few things for thongs. We have seen a big take off in guys wearing thongs, gay/straight, it doesn’t matter. This week International Jock sent out an email that “Thongs aren’t your Dad’s Underwear.” I was like “OH SNAP!” International Jock is embracing the thong and starting to push it as well.

While not my favorite style, a lot of you guys are starting to wear them and not look back. This is amazing for underwear. It’s having guys try something new and liking it. Thongs in the past of men’s underwear have been like the step child of underwear. It was relegated to the back pages of adult magazines and no “gentleman” would wear such apparel.

Those days are gone. Thank god! Now thongs are being sold online and in major department stores. And by big brands such as Calvin Klien and 2(X)ist. We will see them grow even more this year. They were a little under the radar last year, but this year it’s going to be a full on thong year.

How do I know it’s taking off. Well, three of our biggest thong fans are straight. And they are huge fans of the style. More guys I talk too through UNB also profess their love of thongs. And, many of you are starting to share that love online with others.

I want personally thank International Jock for sending out an email focused on thongs. International Jock has always had really fun gear and promoted many great undies throughout the years. They aren’t just pushing a few thongs. They have one of the largest thong collections of any store on the net. From traditional to strings and everything in between. They have it. If you can’t find a thong you love there, it’s not made.

Head over to the International Jock and see their Thong Page. I think you will be amazed.

 

What do you get when aussieBum mixes the WonderJock tech with an ergonomically designed pouch? You get the Enlarge IT line. The combination will do exactly what the name suggests, it will Enlarge your bulge. If you’re a guy who doesn’t want to show off what you have, as the aB saying goes ‘If you doubt yourself, wear something else.”

The Enlarge IT line has been in the aB lineup for a while. This is an update to the colors. These new colors are pastels. Which, I must say I love in men’s underwear. Guys should have the choice to get any color in underwear. Pastels aren’t used as much as they could be, in my opinion.

The design of the Enlarge IT is a cool design. It looks like it has it could possibly have a fly in the pouch. The sides of the pouch are open to allow air circulation. Also, I think this feature is to accommodate a man of any size. It gives the pouch a little extra room to stretch. Also, the waistband is set to have the solid ‘aussieBum” name centered in the waistband.

This line has two of the classic style of aussieBum. The brief and hipster. They have been good about making pairs in briefs and trunks for years. This allows them to reach fans of each style. These are pretty reasonable price. aussieBum does a great job at creating affordable underwear. Each pair is under $20 each. Plus with free shipping to the US, makes it a great deal.

Valentine’s Day is around the corner. If you are on the lookout for the perfect pair we just may have the pair you need. Plus, it’s never too early to get your “game day” pair ready. The pair is the Andrew Christian Kiss Me Brief. Made especially for the romance month!

The brief is made from a limited edition Lip print. The fabric of the brief is a “sports mesh” type of fabric. AC says the fabric will look like it’s painted on. I will say their mesh briefs like these are some of the best on the market. They are super comfy and fit great.

One important feature is the pouch. Made with an anatomical pouch. Which, AC is known for, you will hang naturally and feel great. AC really knows how to make a pouch. The Almost Naked and Trophy Boy have been my favorite. This looks more like the Almost Naked, although, they don’t say which pouch design it is.

I really love this pair. I like over the top prints that are on great undies. We are supposed to have fun with our undies right? On Valentine’s day or “Game day” as I call it, you want to wear your best gear. This will get attention from any partner. I know I would love it to see my partner in these.

Looking for great pair of undies for a fun night. Then this is the pair for you. Get them quick before they are gone. Being a limited edition print it will go fast. Also in a jock and trunk. No matter what style you love, they will have it for you in the Kiss Me Print.

Cocksox furnished the CX76 N Brief for review

Ratings:

  • Daily Fit – 10
  • Sizing – 10
  • Construction/Materials – 10
  • Styling – 10
  • Daily Performance – 10
  • Overall –  10

Another round of Cocksox for me and after my last review, I was very excited.  I immediately loved the look of these even before I put them on.  Great color with contrast elastic and a nice waistband, too.  I was thrilled to receive the azure blue with mint trim, a combination I don’t see online but they have navy, bright blue, red and mint green combinations.  It appears that they come in sheer, as well, if you prefer to show off a bit more.

These were my choice for an average Tuesday at work and then out to dinner afterward.  Seeing that the cut looked pretty standard, I wasn’t afraid of committing to these for a long day.  These strike me as everyday underwear rather than for the gym but I suppose they could be used for that.   

Sizing is standard with a medium fitting a 32-34 waist.  Unless you like your undies extra tight, I think ordering your normal size would be fine.  The CX76N has enough room and stretch to accommodate if you’re on the edge of the size range.

I loved these as soon as they went on.  Cocksox are always well made, from the fabric (92% Supplex, 8% Lycra) to the stitching.  The pouch gave plenty of room and support but is not their “original” pouch, but what they refer to as “contour”.  This was a great surprise since their standard pouch is not my favorite.  This brief gives a great profile for an everyday pair of underwear.  I love the waistband with COCKSOX written just once, in the front, however, on their site, this brief has the brand name repeated all the way around.  I like the stripe around the waist which gives some style without being too loud.  Several color options means there’s something for everyone and I have to say, I like that they don’t include the basics – black, white or gray.  The sides are small without being a real bikini and the back gives full coverage and stays in place.

These have to be my favorite pair of Cocksox I own and will definitely be in my regular rotation.  I’ll probably get the other colors, as well, since their combinations are all pretty great!  The CX76N held up throughout the day, was very comfortable and were even my pajamas for the night.  I only wish the waistband was still the version I have since it’s a but more to my liking.  Not a deal breaker, though.  Once again, Cocksox hits it out of the park!
