We love Curbwear. They have some of the funnest photography in mens’ underwear. The personal favorite has been the subway (tube) shoot from last year!
Why is it that when we are told something is forbidden we want it more? It’s human nature right? This Fetish Friday post is inspired by the one and only Gregg Homme brand featuring a desirable jockstrap from the Forbidden Collection. Fetish underwear incorporates a lot of ideas that are typically not present in your everyday pair of underwear. For instance, mesh, leather, and sheer material are typically saved for the more playful underwear that leaves very little to the imagination.
Gregg Homme managed to bring a mesh and leather like combination to a beautiful jockstrap. What I love about this specific pair of fetish wear is that it also has a zipper in the front pouch. Imagine walking into the bedroom with your lover, they unzip your pants to find this sexy pair of underwear waiting underneath. Things get heated up when they see black leather like material, mesh exposing the skin, and a zipper covering the front pouch, inviting them to continue unzipping their present. The pouch on this pair is designed with play in mind. The mesh sides gives you a look into what you are packing while the zipper gives a fun and creative way to expose yourself to your lover. The sex appeal continues in the back with a beautiful jock thong design, circling and showcasing your butt for your admirer.
Fetish underwear is about stepping out of the box with basic and comfortable designs. These pairs are not meant to be worn under a suit all day at the office. Instead, they are meant to display and showcase who you are while teasing and enticing who you are trying to impress. The next time you are planning a late night rendezvous, stop by Gregg Homme and check out this Forbidden collection. It is also available in a brief and boxer brief, with plenty of mesh and leather like for whatever style you prefer on your body.
I love Baskit! Here is their latest quick and I mean quick video from the most current shoot ” As we were doing a fast photo shoot a few weeks ago (16 items in less than 4 hours) our models took a quick break for a dip in the pool on the location. But of course, they didn’t want to get their Baskit wet. ;)”
FuriousFotog has become one of my favorite photogs lately. This is his newsest shoot with Zac Smith! He did a series with him. He’s on the road and we should see a lot more with him soon!

I love an info graphic. This year Garçon Model did a survey and created this great graphic about some of the trends happening in the men’s underwear market. I think this confirms some things we have always thought of in undies!
We had a reader send us a pic! I am so happy when we have readers who send in their pics! This Scott and here is some info about him: well, I am definitely not a model. I am just your average Joe (Scott) from Kansas City. I spend my days working miracles in the information tech field. I’ll travel at the drop of a hat and have. My record is 36 hours between deciding to take a trip and ending up on a beach in Mazatlan. I didn’t take your “swim brief challenge” this year, because most of the time I already wear swim briefs. I’ve never been a big fan of board shorts. Briefs are definitely more comfortable, plus they give a better tan line.
Were you a fan of Catch of the Day? If you were they released a new range in the line. The previous pair was created when aussieBum, Sean Ashby, wanted to see a model in a pair of mesh underwear. This sounds like something I would do! After seeing the pair on the model they decided to make the line! So not every pair is planned our in a release schedule, some just happen!
Here is what aussieBum says bout the line: Leave as little or as much to the imagination as you want with Catch of the Day! This innovative underwear comes in a brief, bikini, hipster and jock style with a variety of waistband colours and net-fabric combinations. Be todays Catch!
Which style do you want? Well they range from $22-$31. So go check out the new line.
Modus Vivendi releases a new line. In this collection I love the Pink (or rose as it’s listed) brief. There is something about pink undies for me. Here is the write up on the line:
The Union line by Modus Vivendi is the final part of your favourite Greek brand’s Spring/Summer 2014 collection.
It also marks the close of the Dreamland campaign, launched earlier this year, which has transported us to a world of dreams, heroes and idols.
This last part of the Dreamland campaign is all about togetherness, a celebration of the spirit: “together we are one”.
The four images that portray this idea are portraits of men together, from the beginning of civilization to the present day. They evoke a world of freedom, of equal opportunities, a world where everyone has an equal right to love and to live with the person he chooses.
The new Union line consists of classic cut briefs, Brazil cut briefs, tank tops, sweat shorts and track vests, all made from outstanding quality Italian fabrics and manufactured with perfect precision.
Modus Vivendi even suggests that the couples among us choose matching or contrasting combinations: briefs in sky blue or pink, in a variety of complementary cuts, tank tops with a bold ‘2’ printed on the chest or back…

I wore my Blue Collar Underwear today and love them a lot! I want you guys to go check them out! They have a few new styles and some great new pics!
Have you ever wanted to design your own pair of underwear? Well Shrine Boxers is giving you that chance! They launched a contest to have you guys design the perfect pair. After the final six are picked it then gets voted on! The winner then goes into production! How cool is that? I will admit I would love to design a pair of undies and have guys across the world wear them!
I got a chance to talk to Rob, the owner, at Shine Boxers yesterday and here is what he said about the contest and brand “Shrine Boxers has created the ultimate underwear that keep you cool and comfortable in every situation. We are getting ready for our upcoming Kickstarter launch by holding our first Underwear Design Challenge. Almost every other underwear brands have boring branding on their waistbands, not Shrine Boxers. Our waistbands feature bold styling designed and voted into production by you. Now the only decision you have to make in the morning is: Boxers or Boxer-Briefs?”
He also told me on the call he read my “I hate boxer briefs” post and said that their boxer briefs were going to change my mind. I told him to BRING IT! I met him back in February in Vegas at the UNB Meet and Greet we have a Magic. The first thing I noticed is he’s taller than me, which is rare being 6’4″, and has a really cool back story. We will bring you that soon!
But in the mean time go over and design a pair of underwear. You can do it on the site or download an illustrator or Photoshop file and enter! You can design as much as you like so go have fun! The address for the contest is http://try.shrineboxers.com/challenge/
Jor is back with a really fun video. This video is call “In the Shower” and it’s just that! But its not what you think! Check out the video and enjoy!
We love the work that Jerrad Matthew does at Underwear Nation! This month they feature JOR. The pair in the picture is the JOR Color jockstrap. If you were following me on Twitter you would have seen last night they did an one hour sale!

One of my personal favorite underwear brands is N2N Bodywear. They currently hold the title of one of my fave pairs of briefs that I own. I was vey excited to be presented with the chance to review their new jockstrap from the California Dreamin’ collection. With all of the new jockstraps on the market, it is nice to keep involved with the traditional style we are all used to. The jockstrap has a great small front pouch that is colorful with greens, yellows, red, and purples. I love seeing that a company can incorporate so much color into such a small space and make it look fantastic. The only fabric on this pair is a small section covering the front and they did it justice. Apart from the color scheme, the fabric is so comfortable. The minute I touched it I knew I would no problem with comfort in the front. The straps of the jockstrap are basic black, contrasting the pouch nicely.
As usual, I take chances with my underwear and wear them for a whole workday. I find it to be quite the challenge and a good test of true love with a pair. When I first slipped it on, I noticed that it hugged me quite tighter than most jocks I have worn recently. The waistband was a rougher material than several other pairs I am used to which I was worried may cause some discomfort. There was nothing major that I noticed throughout the day but the waistband did rub rough at various actions throughout the day. Such as pulling the front down to go to the bathroom. Again, this is small but noticeable. The straps that wrap around the butt did not have the same feeling to me as the waistband. They fit tight and added support which I could feel from the moment I slid them on. As N2N Bodywear says “this jock feels AMAZING under your jeans.” They did not lie! It felt AMAZING! I loved the feeling all day long. It is important to note that the slight discomfort with the waistband would not keep me from wearing this jock again.
I wear a medium and this pair fits true to size. I will say that it felt like it ran on the smaller of the medium side than the larger medium side. I could tell a difference when sliding them on and off but that would not make me buy a larger size. Although I felt it tighter in these cases, I did not think the front pouch was too small and I had enough room and comfort all day. I still believe the medium is accurate.
Thanks again N2N Bodywear for another great pair!
Pros:
- Soft, comfortable front pouch
- Pop of color
- Good, back jock support
Cons: –
- Rough waistband
- Tighter fit might concern people with sizing issues

Pikante has released their new Fall/Winter 2014 Collection. Over the last few year Pikante has gone to the wild side! Not saying this is a bad thing. Letting your wild side out is something you have to do every so often! The theme for this year is metallics, mesh and pouch enhancing (well more show off than enhancing).
I really like this collection because it’s super fun. Pikante is not one of those companies to make the same things over and over. They have a few staples but most are new designs, styles and fabrics. My favorite from this collection is the Amadeus Boxer in gray (Main pic above). Just something super sexy to me about it.
I would like to think that this line would be worn all the time and not as a fetish pair. I mean I’d love to see some metallics worn under a suit, khakis or uniform. Make the day better with some super fun underwear! If this is too Tame for you they have pairs that your business will fit in and show off totally, that pair is the Castro Brief. I’m not sure they would be great work pairs but I could see them for a date night.
I just wanted to inform you guys on the new line is out! To check out the line go to GDD World and see every pair in this collection. We will bring you more on specific pairs soon but enjoy some of the lifestyle pics of the brand
We bring you a jock pic for you today from ES Collection. This is part of their new partnership with Bel Ami studios. We hope you enjoy the pic

You may have thought the Brazil fever in underwear had passed now that the World Cup is over. You would be wrong! In just two years the world will come to Rio for the Summer Olympics! So this will bring a whole new round of Brazil inspired undies. The latest in the Brazil themed underwear is Aware SOHO.
The new line has a Brazil Flag print with an Aware SOHO branded waistband. Which appears to be centered in the front. This is one thing more underwear companies are doing. It costs a little more but it seems you guys really like having a centered waistband. But back to the undies. The pairs pictured above (from left to right) Boxer Brief, Brief and Trunk.
Each one is made out of 95% cotton/5% Elastine fabric. Which sill make it comfy and soft! This would be a great pair to wear under your work clothes. It’s a pair with a little flash and interesting pattern! I really like the design of the print. From a distance you may not be able to tell its the Brazil flag (at least I didn’t at first) but once close you can clearly see it.
If you are a fan and want to see this and more head over to Aware SOHO site.
How appropriate that I post a review for a boxer brief the same week I post “I hate boxer briefs” Well I don’t have them but hate a section of them. As you will see in this review.
I totally forgot I had this pair to review and decided to wear them on my trip to LA. Which I think partly wore because I saw N2N at the LA Eagle that night for the Hard Heroes party. Which was a lot of fun (except the jet lag). So I put these on when I did the final things to get ready for my flight. I didn’t leave till 5 PM so I had plenty of time. While doing things I did something I haven’t done in a while. I turned this pair inside out. Why you ask? Because the tag just irritated me so much. I thought about taking it off but realized I could just flip them.
Once I had them inside out, they were pretty good. I love the fit of these because they are very tight in the legs, but not too tight. They really breathed with me through out my journey. And the pouch was amazing! I love the pouch they have created and have had very few that I haven’t loved!
These got put through their paces on this day. More so than most pairs I review. Here is the day I had….I get to the airport, get checked in and head to security. The sign said 10 minutes, but it ended up taking more than 35 minutes. I glanced at my watch and had 15 minutes to get to the gate before boarding. I was like “No problem” It’s a short train ride down and I”ll be there. But that wasn’t meant to be! I rounded the corner and the trains in the ATL airport wasn’t working. They were holding everyone up and not letting them go down to the transportation mall. So my 15 minute window was slowly closing. In about 5 minutes they let people down and I could still make it. But the train got one concourse away form mine and stayed there. After 7 minutes, and yes I timed it, I got off the train and started to walk. Well everyone else had this idea had to duck and weave between people.
I make my way over to the concours and basically had to fight my way to the escalator. I get on and head up to the concourse. Which is a good thing because when I get near the top I hear security say “don’t let anyone else up”. After I get up there I realize why, there are about 2,000 people waiting to go down and they are lined up ¼ way down the concourse. I start running at this point to the gate. I have my backpack with my camera, ipad, computer and more. This backpack weighs about 35 pounds. But there is one thing that I didn’t count on. I took my belt off at TSA and didn’t put it back on. So my shorts were falling down. So here I go running down the concourse yanking my shorts up as I go. But I get there right when they start boarding!
Well this pair felt amazing because It never got in the way. The fabric really breathed by the time I got to the gate I didn’t feel like the fabric absorbed all the sweat. I’m sure we have all had these pairs, and then I would have to sit for over 5 hours in a plane, it would not have been good. Turning them inside out was a blessing. If it hadn’t the tag would have just made things worse. So if this pair could stand up to a mad dash to the gate , it would be a great pair to work out or do kickball, tennis or anything else active. This is going to be one of my favorite N2N pairs, I’m actually wearing it again as I type this review (yes its inside out). So this is one of the first times I used an athletic pair in a review situation!
I almost forgot the sizing. I think if you’re a fan of N2N you know your size. They have been consistent. I got a large and I’m a 38 waist now and it fit me fine. Make sure you check the size chart for your correct size.
Pros:
- Great pouch
- Breathable Materials
- Held it shape all day
- Perfect for an active guy
Cons;
- The tag was irritating
- Wish they had more colors than black.

- Daily Fit – 7
- Sizing – 9

If you are a fan of colors, the new aussieBum line Palette is one you need to check out. The new hipster line is available in three different colors. Those colors are blue, green and pink. They aren’t super bright but a little more subdued and very nice! I’m loving the green pair most. Green is my all time favorite underwear color!
The pair is also made out of Pima Cotton. Pima is ultra soft and will be super comfy on top of it. For those who need a bit more space in the pouch, this one has it! This is great for the endowed guys, but don’t worry the pouch will fit any one out there. It’s not too roomy for average guys.
The last thing I love is the waistband. The waistband is a bespoke metallic waistband. It’s a really cool waistband. I like how the BUM is in a different color. I will say great job over all aussieBum! You can find it at the aussieBum site for $23.74
I am loving Justin Case after meeting them in Vegas. They have some amazing undies and we will be doing some reviews very soon. Also we have a few more things planned we can’t tell you about…yet!
Andrew Christian is no stranger to undies that dare to bare! Earlier this year I reviewed the Valentines Peek-a-boo brief. I was impressed by the pouch. Many times you get one of these pairs and you fall out. The pouch is made out of the Almost Naked so you know its one that will conform to you and hold everything in place!
Andrew has taken this pair on step further. You may ask how could you do that with a pair where you can lift the pouch up for easy access! The change is the sides and back (just the top inch or so) is mesh. The black mesh def makes this pair stand out! It adds a bit of sexiness without being too over the top! Mesh has been a big trend in men’s underwear for the last few years and more companies are finding creative uses of the fabric. Not all are showing everything but more are using in an accent like this pair.
One thing the write up on the AC site says is it feels like you aren’t wearing underwear. This is definitely the Almost Naked line. The pouch is designed to ergonomically hold you all day in a natural position. You won’t be uncomfortable all day in these. The Almost Naked is one of my favorite lines of underwear just for this reason. I don’t know how AC came up with it but it’s amazing!
If you’re interested in this pair check it out at the Andrew Christian site. It’s retailing for $28.93
