Go Bare with Timoteo’s Underwear

No Comments

Go BareThe title may sound odd but Timoteo has a new line called Bare. Why is it called Bare? Well glad you asked! I know we have many readers who hate waistbands. I mean they really hate waistbands and prefer a waistband the smaller the better. Timoteo, has been known for their awesome waistbands over the years, the Bare is for Waistband dislikers!

Timoteo says this is a “minimalist style.” I would have to agree. You will notice it definitely sits lower on the waist. Timoteo says its ultra clean and sexy. You maybe asking why the change in designs? Timoteo is a company that is always designing the next best pair of underwear. I think Timoteo is one of the great underwear designers of our generation. I don’t say that lightly. He likes to experiment and have fun with underwear!

The Bare comes in a brief and jock brief. I will say I would love to see their take on a boxer brief in this line. The brief and jock brief are perfect pairs for the line. Each pair comes in white, black and blue. Each pair has a contrasting waistband color. The Brief retails for $20 and Jock Brief is $21 on the Timoteo site.

One Thing in Underwear/Swimwear We Want to See More of In 2016

No Comments

image006Men’s underwear is in the process of going mainstream. More and more guys are really paying attention to what they are wearing on a daily basis. This is proven by the growth in our straight readers every year. Yes, believe it or not we have quite a few amazing straight readers. They are just as passionate as gay guys!

So what do we want to see next year? We want to see more runway shows. This year we saw two shows from 2(X)ist and CA-RIO-CA Sungas. Both were amazing and the 2(X)ist was during NY Fashion Week and CA-RIO-CA did two shows, one in LA and one in Miami. Both shows were amazing. I believe we posted the videos of each and if you missed them they are on each company’s YouTube Channels

Every year Victoria’s Secret has a big show on network TV. Women’s underwear/lingerie is ok to show but men’s underwear still has a major stigma. It’s time to change that stigma! The shows by both companies were really great shows. CA-RIO-CA put some showmanship in the show featuring Carnival Dancers and a back flip on the runway.

Who would we love to see do a full on Fashion show? That is a long list, we’d love every brand to do one but here are my top picks for brands that would rock a runway!

  • Modus Vivendi – The diverse collection and Greek Heritage of the brand would make for an amazing show. They create fashion items not just underwear.
  • PUMP! Underwear – This year the brand has exploded and made some amazing pairs that would be awesome on the run way.
  • Clever Moda – Known for everything from basics to amazing prints. The prints come in brief and boxer, it would be awesome to see them walk side by side on the run way.
  • Garçon Model – This is a brand to really watch. They have some great new pairs and have stepped up their photography. We think the mix of bright colors would make a killer show
  • Jack Adams – The new collection is at a new level. Why not see it on the runway? Jack Adams is evolving and is becoming a major force in underwear.
  • Junk UnderJeans – They have been around for a while. With the addition of the activewear they would have a well rounded show. Plus their new underwear is pretty great!

These are only a few. There are way more brands to see on the runway. Let’s hope more brands try this out. I know we will see a new show from 2(X)ist and CA-RIO-CA this year.

Cocksox CX01 Bikini is a new Classic

No Comments

cx01N_cloud9white

Over the Christmas Holiday I had a lot of down time to recharge. Working two jobs before the holidays takes it out of you! While sitting around I started to think about classic underwear. Such as traditional white briefs. Knowing our readers the way I do, few of you out there would actually wear them on a regular basis. Granted, I think every guy should have a pair of them in his undies drawer.

What classifies a pair as a classic. I think the majority of the public classifies the conservative as a classic. It’s time to change that mentality. Real underwear lovers like styles outside of basic briefs. They include thongs, bikinis, and boxer briefs. They can be made out of any fabric from cotton to mesh.

Thinking of pairs over the last 10 years got me thinking which pairs are a classic. One of them immediately came to mind was the Cocksox CX01 Bikini. It has been a mainstay at Cocksox since their beginning. The pair has changed very little over the years, outside the colors. The fit and pouch is one of the best on the market. The fabric is 92% Supplex® 8% Lycra® that fits awesome and holds up very well. I actually have the first pair of CX01 from 2007 that I still wear!

The colors have been amazing in the CX01 over the years. I think it’s a true statement that it can be made in prints and solids and still maintain its design. That is a sign of a classic. The colors have been every color of the rainbow over the years. The prints include camo, stripes and more!

If you haven’t tried the CX01, you need at least one pair in your underwear drawer. If not a few of them! I have about 4-5 of them in various colors. My favorite has been the pink/magenta! The CX01 retails for $25 at the Cocksox site.

Show off in Gregg Homme new Charger Line

No Comments

1330-Charger-Low rez
Gregg Homme always has used mesh. The new Charger line is a printed fabric on a red background. So it’s not your typical black or white mesh. It is something different and Gregg Homme is always pushing boundaries on what is sexy. The print was something unexpected to me when I first saw the collection. I definitely thought it was awesome and a welcome addition to the Gregg Homme line.

The Charger line has a Trunk, String, Boxer Brief, Brief and Thong. That’s not all it also has 4 different shirts and a harness. The shirts were limited edition. Since the release most has sold out and only mediums remain.

Charger Trunk – This CHARGER trunk gives you slightly more coverage than boxer briefs with a seamless seat, and is designed with a contoured center-seamed pouch and black jersey leg trim. The defining detail is a prominent, rugged matte ”gun metal” horseshoe buckle at the center front of its 1.5-inch elastic waistband.

Charger String – Its 1/2-inch waistband has the signature Gregg Homme logo patch sewn in at center front, and ends in a T-back.

Charger Boxer Brief – These CHARGER boxer briefs give you full coverage, a seamless seat, and are designed with a contoured center-seamed pouch that features a hidden red cockring for extra enhancement up front. The defining detail is a prominent, rugged matte ”gun metal” horseshoe buckle at the center front of its 1.5-inch elastic waistband.

Charger Thong – This thong gives you typical thong coverage and is designed with a contoured center-seamed pouch that features a hidden red cockring for extra enhancement up front. The defining detail is a prominent, rugged matte ”gun metal” horseshoe buckle at the center front of its 1.5-inch elastic waistband.

Charger Briefs – These CHARGER briefs give you classic coverage, a seamless seat, and are designed with a contoured center-seamed pouch that features a hidden red cockring for extra enhancement up front. The defining detail is a prominent, rugged matte ”gun metal” horseshoe buckle at center front of its 1.5-inch elastic waistband

Charger Harness – CHARGER collection harness is made from a 3/4-inch wide elastic material covered in faux leather, with adjustable metal straps & buckles at the shoulders. The defining detail is a prominent, rugged matte ”gun metal” horseshoe buckle at center back

Find all these pairs at the Gregg Homme site!

Be Triumphant in Jack Adams

No Comments

triumph

Jack Adams new collection this year is a departure than previous collections. It’s a new fresh look from the brand. Their previous collections were great, but this one takes it a step above! One of the new pairs that I love is the Triumph Brief. This is also available in a boxer but we are focusing on the brief.

The Triumph Brief has a very nautical feel to it. The actual description says “Sexy sailor style low cut brief made of the finest fabric with vertical stripes contrasting on the left side.  Made of 95% Cotton and 5% Elastane.” The blue/white stripes with red trim make it very nautical.

I love the duo tone Jack Adams branded waistband. The half red and white band really accents the brief very well. The front has a chevron V in the front to give an accent to the pouch. The red trim is really an awesome touch. The double line on the right hip is a design feature I really like.

This pair is only one of the pairs of the new collection. We profiled 4 other pairs in our Holiday Guide. All the pairs in the guide and here are a step up from what they have done in the past. I expect many great things from them in 2016. Find the Triumph Brief on the Jack Adams site for $32.00

Review Supawear Fruitopia Brief

No Comments

Supawear Fruitopia

I LOVE watermelon in the summertime since I was a kid. I would always get it and eat till I couldn’t eat any more. I also, love underwear! So what could be better? Watermelon Underwear! Some of you out there may think it maybe crazy to create underwear based on fruit. I think it’s pretty fun and awesome. Underwear is about fun and expressing yourself! SupaWear furnished a pair of Fruitopia for this review!

The Fruitopia pair I was super excited to review. I thought I requested a jock but got a brief instead. I’m not complaining though! The brief is a lot of fun. The first thing that you notice is it definitely looks like watermelon. The Green waistband is the peel, which I love. It makes it so much fun. The other thing is on the brief, the back has seeds printed on the back. It’s just an added touch that is super nice

When I put the pair on the first thing I noticed was it was a little tight. Being the holidays I added a little weight on. Their sizing chart says it’s 36-37. I will say I’m bigger than that and it didn’t fit too tight. After I had them on I didn’t notice the tight fit. It was mainly in the waistband.

As for daily wear it fit pretty well. I wore this pair on a really busy and stressful day. I was on the go for a few hours. It really held up well. It was a little more of a manual labor day than I had expected. The tight fit was perfect for the day, it gave me extra support when I needed it.

The design. As I mentioned above is awesome. Its playful and fun. SupaWear and 2EROS isn’t afraid of trying something new. They have a really great design aesthetic in everything they design. Lines such as AKTIV and X-Series brings out the fashion of the brand. The Fruitopia just brings out the fun. I want more pairs in the series! They would be great to wear during the summer time! (Which it is summer in Australia)

Pros:

  • I love the fun whimsical design
  • Great pouch in the pair
  • Waistband is awesome

Cons:

  • Some may not like the literal interpretation of the pair
  • Color may turn some off

Ratings:

  • Daily fit – 8
  • Sizing – 8
  • Construction – 9
  • Styling – 10
  • Daily Performance – 8
  • Overall – 8.6

New Xtremen Collection has been released

No Comments

NEW BRIEFS FROM XTREMEN -Xtremen has been a brand well known for boxer briefs. If you are a boxer brief fan you may already know the brand. If not we will give you a brief introduction today. The brand has been around for a few years. It has always been about 95% boxer briefs and 5% briefs. The last collection I think was almost 100% boxer briefs. That ratio is changing this collection.

The official description is: Xtremen takes underwear into high-performance territory rolling out a collection of fabrics designed to withstand the everyday rigors of the everyday man. Whether he s a casual runner full-time athlete or just braving the urban jungle in a suit and tie Xtremen design and fabrics provide the support comfort and wearability he needs.

You can wear the brand for physical activities or to the office. The pairs are made to give you needed support and look great while wearing them! If your’e a boxer brief fan, don’t worry it won’t change too much but there are 4 new briefs released in the collection. We are going to share a few of the new pairs with you, including the new briefs!

Xtremen 51361 Microfiber Boxer Color – For those who like a longer boxer brief, this pair is for you. It comes in Gray and Turquoise. Made out of a Nylon/Polyester blend with a contour pouch.

Xtremen 51365 Microfiber Boxer Color – A shorter boxer than the previous one. Comes mid thigh. Has a metallic waistband that off sets the main color (white, red or turquoise). Made out of a Nylon/Polyester blend as well.

Xtremen 91001 Brief Color – This brief has a very classic design. Made with the fly front with the white piping accents. The design is the only thing classic. It has a shiny Xtremen branded waistband. The colors are anything but traditional being red and green. The fabric is not the traditional cotton but 60 Polyester 32 Cotton 8 Spandex blend.

Xtremen 91002 Brief Color – Whereas the previous was a classic take on a brief this is a more modern take on how to make a brief. The material is a silky soft Nylon/Polyester blend. The trim accents are a nice touch. The trim contrasts the colored waistband. Available in white-blue or white-red.

91004 (2)

Xtremen 91004 Brief Color – Who doesn’t like a mesh brief? This is a blend of 80 Nylon 10 Polyester 10 Spandex.
Sheer mesh allows for flexibility and breathability.Its more of a sports mesh as well. It’s available in Black and Blue

Xtremen 91006 Brief – This is a total departure for the line. Its a bikini cut (no sides) with two cut outs on the front and back. Most of the pairs in Xtremen have been full cut, this is a very small cut and will show off a lot more! The fabric is 80 Nylon 10 Polyester 10 Spandex. The back while skimpy cut offers full coverage in the back!

You can find all these pairs at Candymanfashion.com. See the entire collection at GDD World.

New Andrew Christian Air Jock

No Comments

9913_5298_c

Most of us who read this blog on a regular basis we want something different and fun. We are always on the look out for something sexy, wears well and is a different design. The New Air Jock from Andrew Christian fits that criteria. It has a really cool pouch design.

The pouch is made out of two pieces. The regular body of the underwear and the pouch that has cut outs in each side. I will say it’s a cool design but wondering the practical implications of the pair. I’m sure if you’re a little larger in the pouch you may show more skin than those who aren’t.

Overall it’s a new take on the jock brief. Since the late 2000’s, Jock Briefs have been gaining popularity. Its now pretty much a staple in the world of men’s underwear. It’s not going anywhere anytime soon. Many guys prefer the jock brief over the traditional jock due to the fit. There are no straps to deal with through out the day!

The Air Jock is available in Royal and Black. Each pair has a bright contrasting trim on the pouch and legs. Match that with a similar waistband. It’s a really fun pair to wear to work or out on the town. Both pairs retail for $22.50 on the Andrew Christian site.

Fetish Friday – Manstore String Bodysuit

No Comments

206189_black_a

Bodysuits are growing in popularity in the world of men’s fetishwear. They can be worn under jeans out or under your work clothes (suit or uniform). One of the newest bodysuits on the market is the ManStore String Body. If you aren’t familiar with ManStore, and you love fetishwear, you need to learn about them quick. They make some super fun pairs of underwear and fetishwear. Based out of Germany

A general overview of the suit is:

This super micro fabric is wafer-thin, high-elastic, slightly transparent, sensitive and extremely skin-tight … perfect ingredients for a sexy line, which strongly forms what the self-conscious man likes to show. In black or white, all the eccentric Manstore cuts, shapes and functions are assembled here in M101. Jock straps, thongs and pants … partly with lasso – or bungee function, partly with push-up equipment or with other fascinating details.

This bodysuit has a thong back. Which adds to the sexy appeal of the pair. We are seeing more and more body suits with thong backs. So thong fans rejoice! I think I like the thong back more than the full back. The full back has the potential of riding up or loosing its shape during the day.

So where would you wear this pair? First, I could this at a fetish bar night. Pair it with jeans and boots. Maybe some leather accessories. Next, Fetish wear is not just for the bedroom or bar. The white could be worn under a suit or work clothes. The only problem I see is going to the bathroom. It’s like wearing a singlet to work. There is no easy way to go. Let’s face it we have to be practical. I’m sure you guys could get super creative in where you wear it.

The bodysuit is available in white and black. Each one retails for 45,95 Euros. I am currently unaware of a US store that carries ManStore. This can be purchased from the ManStore website

Item number: 206189
Material: 80% Polyamid, 20% Elasthan
Color: black or White
Cost: 45,95 Euros
