Crafted using the finest Micro Modal fibres in Australia and treated with an acid wash to create a splash stain and revealing finish. ‘Used’ takes voyeurism right up to the point of no return, though not stepping over the line. For others its about the imagination and authenticity. ‘Used’ delivers quality, style and comfort with a sexy twist for the rugged man.

Let’s face it how many of us actually look forward to Monday? Anyone? I didn’t think so, no one is happy for Monday to come rolling around. Many of us spend the weekends in our swim briefs by a pool/beach or lake. Others to out to Fetish nights and wear the stuff we wish we could wear during the week. Lastly there are those who just want to hang in their undies all weekend and relax.
We have a blast over the weekend and then reality makes us come crashing back to earth to be a responsible adult again. So what are we to do? We want to start #undiesmondays. Which is to wear a fun pair of underwear every Monday. Fun depends on your definition. It could be a thong, trunk, bikini or anything that makes you feel awesome. This pair could be something you may not wear a regular basis or one of your favorites.
We all know great underwear gives you a bit of confidence. It can change your mood and put a smile on your face. We hear many of you guys with similar stories all the time, so why not start doing this every Monday. It will give us something to look forward to on Monday morning.
Starting next Monday Tweet us or Instagram us with hashtag #undiesmondays and tell us what you are wearing!

I’ve had the pleasure of getting my feet wet here at UNB by reviewing the Marcuse United Brief in blue. I was excited to try these because I don’t own any Marcuse and thought the style and colors of their line would be right up my alley. The United comes in 8 different colors individually ($13.13 USD) or you can buy a box set of all 8 together. ($74.13 USD)
I chose a relatively lazy but hot Los Angeles Sunday to try these out to be on the safe side. After cleaning the house a bit, lounging in front of the TV and walking a few blocks to go eat dinner, I have to say they held up well. They were even my PJs for the night. They stayed in place, were comfortable and I feel would be a good choice for everyday underwear. They would not be my first pick for a really active day or the gym. I think the pouch was a bit too snug and I prefer a 
spandex/microfiber fabric that dries easily for really sweaty days.
I am a 31-32 waist so I go between small and medium depending on the brand. This pair was a medium (which says it fits 32-34) and I’m glad that’s what I received! Based on their size chart, a small would be my usual choice but they wouldn’t have fit. I definitely recommend going up a size – especially if you need more room in certain areas…
I loved the styling and royal blue color with the white contrast trim around the legs and down the sides of the front panel. The Marcuse waistband with a red stripe and their logo written in rubberized lettering (air dry – no dryer). There is a fun, little button on the fly which is functional if you aren’t a “pull ‘em down” type in the bathroom. The material is nice and soft (95% cotton) with a good amount of stretch (5% elastane). The only area I would have liked to see a difference in would be the pouch, or lack thereof. The briefs fit well but don’t leave much room up front so everything was a bit squished. I’m not a fan of “show it” pouches but definitely appreciate a little extra space for my package. The back is cut smaller than classic briefs, which I love because I’m not too well endowed in the back. For guys with a real bubble butt, this would probably just barely cover everything, which isn’t always a negative. 🙂
Wearing the United brief has definitely piqued my interest in Marcuse as a brand and I will absolutely try more in the future. Overall, a great first experience as an underwear reviewer (my dream job)!

We all have those long shot dreams that we don’t ever really think will come true. For me, that was becoming some kind of underwear model. Let’s face it, I hate the gym and work out very reluctantly, I don’t have an athletic build or a classically handsome face. The dream was never going to happen.
That love and long shot dream started when I was 13 years old and would sneak clothing catalogs into my bedroom to look at the underwear section. I did not know why or what it was about them, but I was captivated. I would see those men in the catalogs and I somehow wanted to be like them, in any small way.
I grew up in a very conservative household where things weren’t flashy, tight, or sexy. Things were very traditional, expected, and plain. Except…for my new, secret underwear collection that all started with a pair of Calvin Klein hip briefs. The packaging caught my eye for how they cut across the thigh, how they formed a well-rounded bulge, and how bold the black was. After a few more pairs of Armani Exchange and Tommy I bought a grey, Calvin Klein thong. The obsession and slight rebellion was in full force.
What was it about the underwear? No one besides me ever saw it. Heck, when your first kiss doesn’t come until you’re 18, it’s not like your seductively pulling down your pants for a captivate audience.
What was it? It was my secret, move over Victoria these were mine. Sitting just under my clothes these well-made, sultry undies hugged my lil bum and supported everything that needed it but more than that, they made me happy. Really happy. It made me smile in secret, it made me feel attractive, attractive! I was a goofy looking kind, big nose, straw hair, slightly gangly, just about average height but underneath I had a secret weapon.
The obsession grew and grew.
In college I branched out from my safe, known brands and into new and exciting territories. I started to get Andrew Christians, 2xist, Diesel, Aussie Bum, and Timoteo. At the time I would always go for regular briefs or trunks. I don’t mind trunks but briefs, and later jockstraps and thongs, are what really excite me when it comes to different cuts.
I was in love with the colors, the styles, the design and the feel. Knowing that at any moment I could slip out of my pants and be rocking some cute baby blue Diesel briefs or bulging out in some white lined red Andrew Christians.
And then one day, I snapped a photo. *click*
These days who hasn’t taken a “naked selfie” or in my case an “undies selfie”? They were happening way before camera phones and I’m sure they will continue with whatever technology comes next. The camera phone and subsequent smart phone sure did make them easy. I wanted to share my picture. Not just with a few close guy friends but I wanted people to see it because I felt SO attractive, so cute, so proud of myself in those photos and believe me, I had a few photos to share.
Twitter. The first time I launched @underloverwear on Twitter just last summer I started with a simple tweet: For my first tweet I thought a thong would be good #underwear #manthong. With a photo of my backside and a classic cut, teal, Andrew Christian thong. In my mind, the world exploded at that instant. Seeing as I only had 7 or 10 followers by that time I was blown away that it got retweeted almost 20 times and liked almost twice as much.
Thus, my tweeting began. I would post every few days and tried to find all of the brands and other enthusiasts to follow. Sometimes a photo would hit it big and I would be lifted even higher that day. Other times photos would sit there with just a little attention, but that was okay. It was all fun and apart of this new, uncharted adventure.
I kept my face out of the photos for the beginning until some fun, fellow tweeter @Chase_Z91 told me how much more personality my photos had with all of me in it. Sure, the photos of my bum had always been the most popular but now when I would post a frontal photo with my smiling or smirking face, people noticed. From there I was shocked and humbled by the numbers of likes, retweets, and followers. I never thought it would get anywhere near 300, or 500, or 1000, or 2000 like it has.
So, maybe it’s not the same as being that guy in the catalogs that I used to sneak into my bedroom. And maybe it’s not the same as actually working as an underwear model. And maybe it will all end tomorrow. But it has helped fulfill that long shot, impossible dream of mine and I am excited with each and every post. I’ve amassed a small collection of around 200 pairs of underwear and each and every one of them gives me the ability to be, in a small way, like those underwear models I used to see in the catalogs and let me share what was once just my secret.
Not all of our readers are experienced in the world of underwear. We get many new guys wanting to know what’s out on the market. They maybe currently wearing boxers, tighty whites or six packs from a big box store. But they yearn for something way better! If you are that guy this post is for you!
Step 1: Find out what style you want to wear. I would suggest if you are a tighy whities I would suggest buying a brief. If you wear six pack boxer briefs or boxers I’d suggest a Boxer Brief/Trunk. It would be the closest to what you are currently wearing and not a big jump to something crazy. Now I’m not saying you shouldn’t get a thong or jock but you may want to dip your toe in underwear waters slowly.
Step 2: Pick a brand to buy. There are hundreds of underwear companies out there. And more enter the market every month and it can seem overwhelming if you don’t know what exactly you would like. Hell, look at this blog and all the pairs we cover. I can’t keep up at times! If you’re just starting out I would suggest going with a classic underwear company like Calvin Klien, 2(X)ist or C-IN2. The latter two each have basic lines that are classic cut and colors. CK has many lines that are classic styled but and they don’t do too many wild colors.
Step 3: Pick a spectrum of color. Now that you have narrowed down the brands you want it’s time to pick color. You can stick to classic colors (Black, Grey and White) or you can branch out. When I started with underwear I went wild for colors. It was 4-5 years before I even bought a white pair. I grew up on tighy whities and the last thing I wanted was white! But this is not everyone. If you have a job where you change at work or at the gym. You probably would be best served getting a black or white. Very few pay attention to these colors in the locker room. Now sport a pink or orange brief and you may turn a few heads.
Step 4: Buy a pair of underwear! Now that you figured out the style, brand and color its time to go buy. You can go to an underwear store or department store in your area. But I remember when I was buying undies and would get embarrassed that the clerk would think of me buying a bikini. After a while I realized most really don’t care and just ring it up. If you are a bit skittish we suggest buying from one of the big retailers such as Mensunderwearstore.com or International Jock. They have big selections and you will be able to find a pair that meets your criteria. If you want to support a smaller online store buy from them such as Drawerfull, UnderBriefs and HisJock, All of them awesome smaller stores.
Step 5: Wear your Underwear. The day it arrives you’ll be all excited and will rush to put it on and see how it fits. If you’re new to the world of designer underwear, I would suggest wear it around the house first. Because the pair you get may not fit you as amazing as you may think. There is nothing worse than wearing a pair of underwear to work that drives you crazy. If it fits great after a few hours at home brave it and wear it to work.
Step 6: Buy more underwear. Now that you found out what you like buy more of those and then slowly branch out. If you bought a brief get a trunk and vice vera. Try them out and work your way up to jock, jock brief, thong or something else fun!
We hope this helps in your search for the best underwear. We want all the guys who come here to have amazing underwear! If you have any questions feel free to email us or reach out to us on our Twitter account!
Many of your out there know who Steve Grand is, he is a Country Music singer who is gay. His first single American Boy hit YouTube and became an over night success. But before he was a singer he was a model and Tom Cullis shot him back in the day. This last week he posted a pic of him in a swim brief! We just had to share the pic!
It’s Fetish Friday! That day we profile something super fun and not your everyday wear! It could be something to wear for a “romantic” night or to a Bar night. These pairs would be for the former unless you are an exhibitionist. The pairs we choose are the Candyman S&M Costumes.
These 3 styles you could have your very on 50 Shades of Grey in the bedroom. As you would expect all three are black but a variation of fun! The first is one for those who love a thong. The 99157 S&M Costume is a mix of a thong and harness with a blindfold and cuffs. Both the cuffs and blindfold are made out of a leather looking material. The thong has almost a harness like look, it crosses in the front and goes over the shoulders. It’s for those who aren’t shy and want to have fun wearing it!
The next style the 99159 is a pair of mesh boxer briefs and a blind fold. You may think you will show off less in this but you would be wrong! The boxer briefs are mesh, except the pouch, and has a lace up back. The blindfold is made out of the same leather like material with some accents around the edge! It’s super fun and sexy!
The last style is the 99161 which is the same as the 99159 except it has the cuffs instead of the blindfold. Granted the cuffs are not super tight but all these are for fun. If you want both the cuffs and blinforld get the 9915.
If you want the real S&M experience you need to get something a bit more fetishy. But for something fun to spice up the bedroom these could just do the trick. Thsee aren’t too over the top or too intense if you want to dip your toe in on the fetish side with your partner. One of the biggest trends in fetish wear is S&M style. More and more brands are having fun with this style of of underwear.
They are super fun and sexy! You can find these at Candyman Fashion

One of our most popular posts is the Endowed Guys Guide to Underwear. It was written a few years ago by Brandon and his personal experience finding underwear for the guy who needs a bigger pouch. That original post is a few years old and I don’t think any of the pairs are still available for sale! So what’s an endowed guy to do? Well I’m taking up that torch and creating a series for guys who need more room in the front! We should have a series soon for those who need extra room in the trunk!
There is one brand of underwear that is underrated. It’s not well known to many of our readers I bet, unless you happen to need more room in the front. That brand is John Sievers, an exclusive brand from International Jock. I had seen the brand on the site but never gave it much thought. Then UNB Brandon posted about how awesome they were and got a few of these and convinced me to try a pair. I couldn’t believe how comfy and roomy the pouch was!
I don’t know if the brand was made for the endowed guys initially or not but it has been given the reputation as a pair with a great pouch. More guys I have talked to who are endowed who say they wear the brand. This is because they have a very comfortable pouch. It’s not one that will push up, have c-rings or any gimmicks. The line has a pouch designed to hold a guy naturally.
One of the big things I like about this line is there are a few different designs and every color in the rainbow. Color is very important to me and I hate it when there are only a limited amount of colors. And even worse if it’s the basic colors only. Color is a way to really enjoy your undies and feel great! Well, for me it is!
The two styles in the collection are briefs and trunks. Each one has a fun waistband and the natural pouch I described earlier. Most of the waistbands are pretty standard except for the California Gold. The California Gold has a bright gold band! It will definitely draw attention peeking over the top of your jeans.
If you are looking for great undies if you are endowed or even if you aren’t check out the John Sievers Collection at International Jock!

A few years ago (more like 6 years) Andrew Christian has the football line. I remember it because it mixed two of my favorite things, underwear and football gear! If you like football gear it’s a little bulky and not really comfortable at times. This made the underwear look just like a pair of football pants!
We now have a new Football Jock! And you guessed it, the pair is limited edition. Here is what AC says about the pair: “With its supersoft Signature Andrew Christian waistband and jock straps, this bad boy will give you full support, while letting it all hang out. Throw this football on and see which sexy man can throw a spiral.” The waistband has the AC name written across the front. That’s not all, the neon details glow in the black light!
The jock is super fun and a little flashy, which is not a bad thing when it comes to underwear! Its only available in red with yellow leg straps. Find the Football Jockstrap at the Andrew Christian site for $27.50
