Men’s Underwear

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.

PAIR: Kiss Me Brief
COLORS: As Seen

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!

When I started UNB almost 9 years ago I was on a mission to bring undies to the masses. It seemed a little overwhelming but in the last 9 years it has happened. More guys are paying attention to underwear. Our staff has more straight guys than I thought would ever read UNB. A lot of the times I feel I’m preaching to the choir, and this is one of those posts.

Over the years there have been several trends. Each year I think they get more and more sexy. It started with Jocks, then mesh, then erotic and now thongs. I don’t know what it is but thongs have really taken off in the last year and a half. The straight guys are the biggest proponents of thongs.

It seems that more guys want to feel sexy on a daily basis. No longer are you guys waiting for a special occasion to break out the good undies. And why should you? Women can wear all sorts of things its about time we, as men, get to break out more than two styles.

What makes me think this? Guys are not sticking to just cotton blend underwear. Fabrics such as silk, lace and satin are making their way to men’s underwear. They are no longer regulated to women’s underwear. The rise of BodyAware and  Male Basic Lingerie, are two companies that have a new formula for undies. They blur the lines of masculine and feminine.

Gone are the days of the boxers and buy six packs of ill-fitting underwear. I think over the next few years we will see a renaissance in the world of men’s underwear. The average guy will start wearing better undies. I hope this will make the big box stores take note and up their game. Thanks for being a part of the men’s underwear revolution!

I have an online friend that I have gotten into underwear. He’s never really been into it and is starting the journey. I have been giving him an education on brands and styles. This past conversation involved fabrics and what to wear when. He’s used to the big box undies made out of 100% cotton. I told him they must go.

Giving him homework to look and see what’s out there. I have pointed him to International Jock, Dead Good Undies, Andrew Christian, Gregg Homme, Bruno Menswear and a few more. I want to show him that underwear has a function (such as daily wear) and fun (such as erotic wear). This will allow him to find his own style and brands he loves.

One thing he pointed out was “underwear is expensive.” As most of you know this is very true. A good pair of underwear will set you back $15 or more. Depending on the brand it can be $30 or more. Starting out, I don’t recommend going out and spending big money on brands you have never tried. Now, if you have plenty of money to spend and won’t miss it, then by all means, go shop and try it all. If, however, you’re like me and on a budget, that’s unrealistic.

How do you grow your collection without breaking the bank?

  1. Cheapundies.com – This is your best friend when starting. This is the site where you can try some of the best brands at incredible prices. Even the Cheapundies brand has really impressed me with the low price and amazing quality. Some downsides: Things sell out fast, be on the email list and shop early. Especially mediums and smalls. Not all brands are on it. And not every day will have a deal on a style or brand you may want.
  2. Discount Stores – While, not as good as they used to be, you can occasionally find good deals at Marshalls, TJ Maxx & Ross Dress for Less. While in Vegas a few years back, I found the 2(X)ist Sliq Mesh briefs for around 8 bucks a pair. Some downsides: The selection is not always great. Brands seem to be limited from what they sold in the past. You will have to dig through to find gold. There really is no organization by brand or size. Those who will root through it all may find some deals.
  3. Clearance sales – Both online and in department stores. These happen at the end of the seasons. Usually late summer and winter. You can find some amazing deals on these sales. I can’t begin to tell you how many times I was in Macy’s and found undies marked down. Some downsides: sizing is limited a lot of times. Leaving more large and X-Large over mediums. Colors will be sold out and usually, the least popular colors are left.
  4. Daily Deals – Not all brands have these but some do. They give you a discount for a limited time on a pair. After the time is over or they are sold out, the deal disappears. The best example of this is the Baskit $12 Tuesday. These are not as popular as they once were.
  5. Sales – Around holidays, specifically big ones. i.e. Christmas, Memorial Day, 4th of July. They can come out with some big sales. The thing to do is find the brand/retailer you like best, join their email list and shop when they have a good sale. I use this on brands that are pricey that I don’t buy every day.

Some things to look out for when growing your collection:

  • Counterfeit undies – Believe it or not they exist. Specifically, on Ebay and other online super discounted sites. These pairs are not made as well as the official pairs. If you can find a pair of Andrew Christian on one of these sites for $4, it’s probably not real. If it’s too good to be true, it prob is. Stick with well-known sites. If you have questions feel free to reach out to us and ask if we’ve heard of a site.
  • Return Policies – Some sites and even states don’t offer returns on underwear unless it’s defective. If you get something you don’t like, you could be stuck with it
  • Sizing issues – Not all underwear is created the same. When buying a new brand read up on the sizing and make sure you are getting the right size. Read our sizing guide, ask friends or ask Twitter. People will gladly give feedback on sizing!

I hope this helps you guys grow your collections!

This is a personal project Adrian did with model Brian Garcia in the forests of Tenerife, Canary Islands. Brian is 23 years, he’s fitness maniac and as you can see he’s blonde, so much that he’s almost albino. This is part of a project he’s working on with different models and the underwear brand MaleBasics.
