We love the new JOR collection. Here is a video featuring another behind the scenes look at the new collection. It’s bright and fun!
We LOVE Eric Turner the Founder & Owner of Oryx Wear. He’s not only a guy who looks amazing in undies but a great guy too! Here is a selfie he took of him sporting the Oryx Sport Trunk.
Hey there kinky wonderfuls, I hope you’ve had a great week. Maybe you’re watching the Olympics. Maybe you’re watching gymnastics. Maybe you are feelin’ all support-y and pride filled. To kick off the 2nd and final week of the Olympics, I found another fun Team USA item for you all to peruse. This one is from a newer company. I don’t know much about them, but hopefully I’ll get to chat with them soon. Their name is BARCODE Berlin (we may be having some language barrier issues over email). I am really interested in their original work. They have fun cuts, and good design lines to highlight men’s proportions.
The item that I’m using the celebrate Team USA. Is another idea that I’d like to pitch for the US Men’s Gymnastics team. Maybe last week’s was the individuals, and this one is for the all arounds. It is called the Juanjo. It is a sexy narrow racerback singlet, with extremely low cut arm holes. It features two options (I’m sticking with the blue option for now) with blue on the bottom area, and white up top. The color change features a chevron pattern, and the whole thing has red trim along all the edges.
This pair is made by BARCODE themselves (the site is a mix of their original work and retail). The Juanjo is made out of 92% Polyester, and 8% Elastane. It is mostly mesh fabric (hopefully very breathable for the male gymnasts) with the bottom fabric being solid. On the front rib area. There is a varsity font style “8” with “barcode berlin” written in the classic baseball style script.
I think the cut of this singlet is very sexy (maybe I’ll get one to review). I love that the front panel is both low cut, and narrow, so the nips are on full display. The pouch has seams on the sides and front, so there seems to be ample shaping for your precious parts.
I should note, there is an option with red bottoms and black trim, but that is not going with my Team USA theme. So I am going to pretend it’s not an option. I hope next summer Olympics, they consult with me before outfitting the gymnasts. I have really good ideas.
Anyway, I’m up in Vermont for 2 weeks, working my booty off. I’ll be excited about returning to Boston for more summer fun. Enjoy the really really really hot weather, and go for a swim in a sexy swimsuit for me.
Until next time, keep it kinky!
TtheAmazing, over and out!

All American Guys sent us another picture to share with you guys. This picture features Tyler K. from his recent shoot with fitness photographer Michael Downs for the AllAmericanGuys project. I felt this picture was perfect due to the Games going on!
Thongs are for ….
I grew up playing several sports – soccer, baseball, basketball, and volleyball. As a kid, my parents bought the jockstraps with the built-in protective cup for baseball and soccer. As I got older, I continued to wear jockstraps because that’s what I was trained that athletes wore. I didn’t really mind them. They allowed for greater freedom of movement. But the straps and thick waistbands always bothered me.
I just competed in a tennis tournament in Columbus, OH, in late July. The weather was….horrific. It was in the mid-90s the entire weekend, and the tennis facility does not have air conditioning. On court, the humidity was suffocating. Needless to say, all players were dripping with sweat after a 5-minute warm-up.
This tournament was a little unusual. There were more mentions of what underwear players were wearing. Some wore briefs, some wore boxer briefs, some wore jockstraps, but I wore thongs. Why, you ask?
Boxer briefs were good for preventing chaffing. Briefs were all that some guys had. Jockstraps are breathable, provide support, and provide wide range of movement. Thongs offer just about all of those qualities – aside from preventing chaffing. Plus, they aren’t seen under soaking wet white shorts!
I am much more comfortable in a thong than a jockstrap during competition. The right, well-fitting thong is just as comfortable and provides unequaled range of motion….with the added benefit of no annoying straps. It’s just there and I don’t have to think about it – everything is kept in its place. It lets me focus on the point, game, set, match at hand.
Thongs are for … Athletes. I challenge you to try one during your next competition!

N2N Bodywear furnished the Neon Classic Cotton Boxster (NC16) for review.
Rating: 7.4/10
- Daily Fit: 6/10
- Sizing: 9/10
- Construction: 7/10
- Styling: 8/10
- Daily Performance: 7/10
Pros: Colors, Fabric.
Cons: Leg Bands, Restrictive Pouch.
SALVATORE Recommendation: I am typically a brief guy, but have been attempting to add more boxer briefs and trunks to my collection. The simple reason is that my wife thinks they are sexy and comments on trunks or boxers briefs every time I wear them. I am not saying that you should select your underwear solely on what your wife/girlfriend/significant other thinks. I am saying that she does play a role in influencing what I buy and wear. After all, we enjoy going underwear shopping together.
This particular design gave me the opportunity to try something new and add a trunk to the collection. Because I am so into anatomical pouches. The write-up and look of this boxster seemed to be a perfect pair. To add to my budding collection of trunks and boxer briefs. I received them in the mail, opened them up, got excited about the look and feel and decided to try them on. These are my findings:
Pouch: Contrary to the pictures posted on line of the sexy model with the big package hanging naturally inn an ergonomical looking design, there IS NO POUCH. The boxster is virtually completely flat in the front causing testicles to stick to legs. This overwhelmed my disappointing feelers. My system failed to recognize the potential of a pouchless trunk.
Leg Bands: The leg bands are extremely loose fitting and cause severe bunching under clothing. Personally, this is the number one reason I stay away from trunks and boxer briefs. I do not like the bunching effect. I have found several well-constructed trunks that do not bunch. The tradeoff is a really tight leg band that sometimes leaves ridiculous lines under clothing.
Fabric: The cotton and spandex blend is the most appealing thing about this trunk. The fabric is super duper soft and feels so incredible laying on the skin. WoW! Is all I can say about the fabric. Although I have been very critical about this boxster. I recommend the pair for a lounging lay around the house day type of garment. The color pops and will draw attention if you happen to be standing in front of an open window or door. Who knows, maybe that is what you are after!!!!!!
I also recognize that I have a bias towards pouch types and briefs. With that said, many people are not bothered by a snuggly fitting pouch and bunching under their pants. That’s okay. I will always say that N2N puts a lot of effort into their designs and makes incredible garments with men in mind. Don’t let me dissuade you from making the purchase. Go buy a pair and do an honest assessment for yourself. Enjoy this great men’s underwear designer.

In the last few years, jockstraps have become more fashion than function. As I sit here and watch the Summer Games in Rio, I don’t think I have seen a hint of a jock. The only sport that I have seen them in recently is American Football. Athletes are no going for engineered designs from Nike and Under Armour. Plus with many of the uniforms being super tight having a jock line doesn’t seem to be in Fashion.
In 2009, I proclaimed that it was the year of the jock. It proved that was the turning point in jocks. They have moved from an under garment that you only wore in contact sports. To a pair of underwear you wanted to show off. In 2009 we saw more brands redesigning the classic jock. Gone was the nylon fabric and in comes breathable and comfortable fabric. Many used spandex blends to give great support without being too constricting. While others used breathable materials such as modal.
The biggest change was color. More brands were stepping outside the black or white. Jocks now come in a rainbow of colors. You name it, you can find a jock in it that hue. Some of the more popular colors over the years have been pinks and purples. Not what many would call masculine, but the mix of a non-masculine color with something masculine has it’s appeal to many guys. Baskit was the first to make a pink jock and it was one of their best sellers. While others have mixed color patterns together to create some really amazing jocks. I”m looking at you 2EROS and your Vavoom collection.
Solid colors aren’t the only thing brands have played with. Prints have become huge in jocks. One of the first I remember making them was Gigo in 2009. But many more brands have created amazing prints over the years. The trend of prints in men’s underwear is one that is picking up steam every year.
Lastly, there have been brands who have taken the jock and made it their own. C-IN2’s Grip Jock is one of those jocks. The Grip jock is about function and working out. They thought outside the box and created a new design. Jack Adams is another brand that has gone in a bit of a different direction. They have taken the jock and added zippers and lace up fronts. Still making it their own, I wouldn’t say fetish but it’s definitely fun.
Speaking of fetish how could we not mention the fetish jock! The jock will always have a place in the fetish community. Even back in the 70s/80s the jock found a special place in the leather community. I think it’s what kept it alive over the years. Now we have brands like Nasty Pig making leather, camo and other fetish jocks over the years. Then you have Cellblock 13 making neoprene jocks and harnesses.
The classic jock is a dying pair of underwear. The Classic Bike #10 Jock is no longer going to be made. Other ones that have had the “Classic design” are giving way to the new waistbands (branded with the company name) and new fabric pouches. I have a special place for the classic jock in my heart. It was one pair I had to have when discovering my love of underwear. But, I feel, the resurgence of the fashion jock did in the classic. For those who are like me and want that classic waistband and pouch. Never fear brands like Jock Up have a pair for you!
No matter what type of guy you are in jocks. Keep wearing them and have fun doing it. Pick whatever color, fabric or design you want. It’s about feeling great and wearing what you want!
Since it’s Jockstrap Wednesday, we needed to share something jock-ish! We choose the Good Boy Gone Bad Aiden Jock in white! It’s a jock brief, which is the next best thing to a jock!
Tom Daley, Olympic Diver for Great Britain, did a Vlog of him picking up his Olympic Kit. It’s a behind the scenes look at what goes on. We hope you enjoy this behind the scenes look.
N2N Bodywear wasn’t lying when they said they would release new lines through out the Year. The University collection, I thought had given up the ghost. Little did I know, the refreshed collection is out! We will have more about it soon!
Today is $12 Tuesday at Baskit! The pair they have today is the Urban Boxer brief! Remember it’s only on sale till midnight. Make sure you go early and get a few pairs!
N2N Bodywear furnished the Air Brief (UN83) for review.
Rating: 10/10
- Daily Fit: 10/10
- Sizing: 10/10
- Construction: 10/10
- Styling: 10/10
- Daily Performance: 10/10
Pros: Natural Pouch, Slinky Fabric, Lightweight.
Cons: None.
SALVATORE Recommendation: Admittedly, this is an older design with an updated color option. However, when I received the N2N Bodywear Air Brief in Peach, my eye was immediately drawn to its smooth look and lightweight feel. There was something new and clean about this brief that I hadn’t noticed before. It helped me get in the mood for a summer filled with fun new underwear colors, styles, and cuts.
If you read any review that I have done on this blog, you will know that I am a sucker for pouches. My collection is almost exclusively anatomical in nature. I have an eye for what pouch will work for me as soon as I physically get my hands on a brief. With that said, UNB Tim, put the thought in my head that sometimes a slinky fabric can give the same effect without the center seam anatomical pouch design that I’ve grown accustomed to. That led to me trying this brief and blowing my normal culling process out the window. The fabric on this brief is so sexy and slinky, that it might be the most perfect natural hang in my collection. I wish I had this brief in every color. N2N has done it again and created a manly brief that is both sexy and comfortable.
Here are a few things that I’d like to highlight.
Pouch: Read above. No need to restate the obvious. For a pouch snob, I didn’t turn my nose up when I slipped these on. I smiled from ear to ear and told my wife how awesome the design is. She agreed and even commented that they looked nice on me. She’s a sucker for a great pouch look too.
Waistband: This brief does not have your typical wide waistband that you see on many designers’ undies today. The waistband is narrow and slim and lies perfectly below the belt line so that it doesn’t stick out of pants at all. N2N perfectly matches up their logo over the hips (on the waistband) to create downward arrow focusing on the crotch of the underwear. Very artsy design that is admirable and creative.
Fabric: This fabric blend is slinky, thin, and soft. Doesn’t get any better than this. Be aware that if you wear this brief under thin pants or dress slacks. You get the full impression of your manhood without any hidden secrets. This can be a good thing or a bad thing depending on the occasion of wear. Overall, the fabric gives you an “I’M NAKED!” feel. It’s splendid.
This design is a must have for your underwear drawer. As N2N continues the trend of updating colors to some of their designs that are flawless. I will be adding more and more colors of the Air Brief to my already outstanding collection of pouch briefs that allow for the natural to take place.

At the height of summer we travel to Cuba for the new Rainbow Line of swimwear by Modus Vivendi. This line is part of the extensive collection the brand has released this year and it is a celebration of colour and diversity! The Rainbow Line comprises eight classic swim briefs in modern and vibrant combinations of contrasting and matching hues. Each pair is handcrafted to perfection from top quality and fast drying fabrics.
The campaign for this line was shot in Cuba by charismatic Kevin Slack. With three models on his side Randy, Jose Alejandro and Hector the great photographer captured in the best way possible the vibrant colours of this line and its confident and sexy feel.

We are fast approaching the Fall underwear release season! One of the first to release each fall and spring is Clever Moda. Clever is known for their great prints and colors. This year is no different! They have come out with some super fun colors and prints. Prints are one of the biggest trends in men’s underwear right now! So what’s new this year? We will focus on Swimwear, Thongs, Briefs and Boxer Briefs.
We were going to write up the entire collection. But that’s too much to cover, this will have all the thongs and other posts will do swimwear, briefs and boxer briefs.
Each pair has a link to buy. If you love something make sure you click through!
Clever Thongs
We have quite a few thong lovers who read UNB. I think each year it grows more and more. Guys are discovering how great thongs are to wear every day. Thongs have always been in the Clever Moda collection. They devote a good portion of their designs to the style. They match other pairs in the collection as well. You will see an Ethnic Boxer Brief and brief. That means you can have the same design in multiple styles.
Clever has made ones that always looked like fashion to me. Meaning they take the design and style seriously and want it to fit in their collection. They don’t make a thong just to make one. I guess what I’m saying is they look classic and not trendy, at least to me. The three thongs we are going to cover are the Ethnic, One Human Race and Ancestral thongs.
Ethnic Thong
Ethnic Thong – Clever 1274 – Blue or Grey
One Human Race Thong
One Human Race Thong – Clever 1275 – Blue or Grey
Ancestral Thong
Ancestral Thong – Clever 1282 – Gold or Silver
See all the thongs on the Clever Moda site!
We love the PetitQ boys and the new collection is WILD and fun. This is the Mesh Chaps. They can be worn solo or with a pair under them. I think most would wear them without a pair under. Go wild and have fun!
The long wait is over! In just a few hours the games in Rio will officially kick off. We will be spending hours in front of our TV watching gymnastics, swimming, diving, beach volleyball and more. If you’re like me and can’t be at the games, why not wear some underwear to get you in the spirit? 2(X)IST has just released their Brazil collection.
The new Brazil collection is available in a No Show Brief and a Trunk. Each pair comes in a green or blue with the Brazil. The brief has the flag on the back and the trunk has it on the left hip. Both are super fun. I prefer the brief over the trunk. But that’s just my preference.
The collection has a few things that make it the perfect pair for the summer and watching the games. The collection is made of a 92% COTTON / 8% SPANDEX blend. Making the line perfect for summer. The waistband is also a special addition. To match the pair 2(X)IST created a Brazil-inspired waistband. The 2(X)IST in the front is a cut out of the Brazilian flag.
You can wear this pair for all 16 days of the games. Sometimes it’s great to just kick back in your underwear and watch your favorite event. If you’re a super fan of the games, you can get all four pairs (2 styles and 2 colors) and wear them to work during the games.
I hope we see a lot more companies making underwear to match what is going on in the world. It’s about time we incorporate our love of sports into our undies. Now that more guys are loving underwear we probably will see a lot more. I say great job 2(X)IST.

Hey, you patriotic kinksters out there. Let’s be real, America is a little nutso right now. I’m super not gonna get political on here, but America is divided…I’ll leave it at that. However, no matter who you support, or who you understand matter…etc. Every two years, America all gathers up around the TV to support Team USA at the Olympics. I actually stumbled upon my item for this post while doing my research for last week’s post. It is just too fun. It is another piece by the honorable Slick It Up company in NYC.
I am talking about their American Flag Sling!
Ok, so here’s what you’re getting: a thong, a really low cut singlet, an American flag.
As a bonus, if you just show your back, you can play a really sexy game of “Where’s Waldo?”
It comes in a Small/Medium, and a Medium/Large. For these double-sizes. They are measured by height and weight, and not waist circumference. The Small/Medium is for people 5’5” to 5’10” and 120-179 lbs. The Medium/Large 5’11” to 6’5” and 175-235 lbs.
It is made out of a shiny nylon spandex blend. Blue with white stars make up the right side of the singlet, and red and white stripes make up the left side and back of the singlet.
Now, while you could wear this while watching the Olympics on tv, I think the fun should not begin there. Maybe gather an Olympic themed dance party with all your sexy friends. Or a sexy gear only patriotic barbeque.
I personally think the designer of the U.S. Men’s Gymnastics singlets missed a golden opportunity here. This would not only show off their bodies, but also spice up the floor routines. Women’s floor routines are always full of pizazz and choreography. Men’s floor routines are incredible but lack a certain flair. I would love to see Sam Mikulak try and not have some sass while competing wearing this (ok, you caught me, I’d love to see him wearing this, period.)
Just in case you have a sunburn on your shoulders or something, Slick It Up also makes an American Flag Thong.
So there ya have it, T’s Official Suggestion for the US Olympic Fan’s Sexy Outfit (O.S.U.S.O.F.S.O). Have fun watching the Olympics. I”ll be away at summer camp for the next two weeks, so I won’t get to watch it live. I have a gymnast friend who will record everything so I can watch when I get back. Until then, keep it kinky!
TtheAmazing, over and out!

N2N Bodywear furnished the R30 USA Runner for review
Rating: 9.4/10
• Daily Fit: 9/10
• Sizing: 9.5/10
• Construction: 9.5/10
• Styling: 9.5/10
• Daily Performance: 9.5
Pros: Fun, styling, fabric/material, great durability.
Cons: none.
pleep recommendations: If you are a fan of N2N tights then you will love these.
I have worn and own a lot of N2N gear by now, and def have had quite a few pairs of tights by them. I absolutely love the styling on this pair, and of course, they used a nice soft fabric for the tights. The color choices are Silver/Black, White/Grey, Blue/White.
I wore these shorts around the condo as well as to the gym. I have worn N2N tights (or runners) to the gym before, so I already knew that with their cut they will slightly show off your package and butt, but with the coloring combo of this pair doesn’t emphasize your crotch or rear too much so, this makes them very gym appropriate or even out on a running trail.
The size I received from them was a L and it fit perfectly everywhere. They are def cut to the standard American size L, so if you normally wear a L then go on and buy a L for this one too.
