Are you fan of Cover Male, Uzzi, Ergowear, Vuthy or Candyman? If you are then check out the 25% off sale at NuWear. They are running the sale till Midnight on 7/3/14. Just use code brands24. Go check out all the pairs on sale.
If you read this blog you know that underwear should be a lot of fun. We all have underwear for every day wear and some of us have underwear to wear to the gym. Those are pairs that are conservative and most guys wouldn’t look twice at in the locker room. But what about those pairs you want to show off and make a statement?
PPU has a pair just for that! The brief, which I call cut out brief, but they call it the Sneak Peek brief. This is a brief cut, where the front is not attached to the elastic but left open. Its a new design is set off by the pink piping around the openings and pouch. So there is no way not to draw attention to yourself when wearing it.
It’s super fun and a really fun design. Where would you wear this? I could see many of our readers wearing it under their suits at work. It amazes me what you guys wear to work! And I say more power too you, wear something that suits your personality. Also this could be great for a night out the pink waistband peeking over jeans will draw attention and maybe some comments. The last part is on a date night. Let’s face it if you wear this pair something tells me you want to show it off.
This pair is also available in Turquoise and Grey. But I think the Pink/Black pair is my favorite. The pink just pops against the black fabric. If you want to show off your undies why not wear a pair that will draw the eye! You should be able to find this at your favorite retailer but if not you can find it on Amazon. A tip, anytime you want a pair of Candyman and can’t find it, Amazon is your friend and you can find all pairs on there!

And the winner is… AUSSIEBUM!
That’s right friends, you voted and with 48% of the vote my 300th pair of underwear is AussieBum. I can’t thank you all enough for helping to make this decision. It was quite fun to allow someone else make the choice. I am not at all disappointed with the choice from AussieBum either. Once the votes were calculated my only job was to choose the pair I wanted from the AussieBum.com website. I actually let my boyfriend make the choice. He chose the “LineUp” Black Brief. This style features an oversized waistband with the logo randomly written throughout. The overall design of this pair is simply fun to wear. My boyfriend had no complaints either.
Since adding this pair to my collection I have added an additional 22 pair. I am now proudly boasting a collection of 322 pair and always growing. It is hard not to keep adding more when the deals and clearance sales run rampant throughout the internet. Each time I get an email from CheapUndies.com I have the fight off the urge to buy, buy, buy. Truth be told I’m running out of space in my drawer of underwear. I am currently trying to figure out where to stash more pairs.
I know I’ll continue to add to my collection and I encourage all to do the same. With each new design or style that the designers put is our opportunity to keep our collection current and fun. Let’s face it…our love underwear centers on fun, for us and our partners. Thank you again for helping to make the 300th choice.

I’ve been infatuated with men’s underwear and swimwear from a very young age – at least since I realized there were options other than white Hanes briefs. Growing up I loved watching the men’s Olympic swimming and diving events when Speedos were still the uniforms de rigueur. Alas, my Southern upbringing was so white bread neither me nor any of my classmates were allowed to wear either Speedos at swim meets or even colored briefs in the locker room. Yes, our parents mandated that we wear swim trunks and tighty-whities. No exceptions. Thus, I had to wait until college before I could explore my interest in other types of underwear and swimwear.
Once liberated from the prying eyes of parents (and free to do my own laundry), I went crazy. Mail order was a godsend, and the Undergear Catalog was like crack in the 1990s. The internet opened another shopping avenue in the 2000s, providing access to an even larger number of designers and online store fronts from around the world. Underwear from England? Check. Swimwear from Australia? You bet!
These days I own everything from posing straps to boxers. I try not to confine myself to one style, manufacturer, color, or material. I like to remain open-minded. Thus, anything that screams “different” interests me: a different pattern, a different cut, a different style, a new concept. As an adult, I’ve worn just about everything. Except for white. I refuse to wear white underwear unless I’m wearing white dress pants, and I have one (and only one) pair of white boxerbriefs reserved for that rare occasion.
Lately I’ve become fond of modal. It’s exciting to see more designers incorporate this fabric, given its softness, breathability, and sturdiness. I’m also excited to see more designers incorporate patterned fabrics, a trend we haven’t really seen since Brut made bikinis in the late 1970s.
Last year I joined UNB’s focus group. Since then, Tim has periodically asked if I’d write for the blog. My work had been busy, so I declined. Recently, though, my work schedule became less hectic, and I now can devote time to occasionally writing for UNB. My personal goal is to contribute both interviews and feature stories.
Finally, for curiosity’s sake, I completed an updated inventory of my current “furnishings.” Here’s the breakdown (subject to change if someone has an Independence Day sale):
- 20 boxers
- 17 boxerbriefs/trunks
- 10 compression shorts
- 97 briefs/bikinis
- 34 jocks
- 6 K’mando pouches
- 40 thongs/g-strings/posing straps
- 34 speedos
- 5 square cut swim trunks

My name is Bryce and I am 30 years old. I grew up in a small, conservative, religious community. So obviously, my mom bought my tighty whities growing up. In high school, I started to become aware that most of the “cool” kids were wearing boxer briefs. I was too embarrassed to say anything to my mom until my senior year.
I very timidly told her I would rather have boxer briefs. Surprisingly, she was very cool about it, and we headed to the store. There weren’t too many colors or options to pick from in our small town. I mostly just stuck with black or white standard you could buy at Wal Mart.
Over the years, I have upgraded to nicer brands – mostly Calvin Klein. But I have stuck with black or white up until recently. I started reading this blog (Underwear News Briefs) one day while trying to discover something not quite so boring. It opened up my eyes to all the different cuts, styles, colors & fabrics that are available in the men’s underwear market these days.
I finally was brave enough to order a few pairs online (bless the Internet!) . I still prefer boxer-briefs for working out, but not just plain old cotton. I recently purchased a Unico boxer brief that is a silky/stretchy fabric that is just to die for. Can I just say it feels like heaven on my “special area” 🙂
For everyday wear, I’ve started branching out. It seems ironic, but I seem to be going back to briefs – but no the plain old saggy bum tighty whities. I love a new Good Boy Gone Bad brief in Yellow with a dragon print. Talk about OUT THERE! I still wouldn’t be parading around in these at the gym or anything, but they make me feel sexy as hell knowing they are under my pants at work and around town.
I’m sure my underwear will continue to evolve and my collection will continue to grow as time goes on. Thank you Tim and Underwear News Briefs for letting men know that they don’t have to stick to the “normal” and can feel sexy and look great at the same time!
NOTE: This is a reader and not UNB Bryce. We hope you enjoy a guest post!

Are you looking for a new brand of underwear that is fashionable, classic and fun? You maybe asking is there such a thing that is classic and fun? I say yes there is! That brand is Hawai Original Underwear. It’s a line of boxer briefs in really great colors, cuts and styles.
Their official statement for this year is: “The HAWAI collection is for the guy who lives on the edge, offering up a funky mix of fashionable and functional undergarments that go above and beyond normal underwear. From athletically-inclined boxer briefs to a color and pattern extravaganza, the Spring/Summer 2014 HAWAI collection is ideal for the guy who puts as much thought into his underwear as he does his outerwear.”
The line is not your boring every day boxer briefs. You won’t find this underwear at your local big box store. They mix things up by using different styles (long & reg boxer briefs with 1 brief style). The next thing I like is the great colors that you don’t find in many underwear collections. They use blues, corals and grays in their solids and fun patterns. Lastly is the the use of mesh fabrics to create something fun. Certain pairs are all mesh (except the pouch) or mesh panels. The full sports mesh styles that I wish I could fit in. The legs are mesh and the pouch is solid. This cut is prob my favorite and the main pic here!
Like what you see? Then you should def check out the entire line and go shopping! If you want to find them, go like the Hawai Original Underwear Facebook Page or you can shop on Amazon for them!
Addicted has used the guys from BelAmi to be in the pictures for their current collection. Here is a behind the scenes video about the shoot from Addicted.
This is the Throwback Thursday edition of the Brief Distraction. This features Pikante from 2103. We hope you enjoy a look back at the collection.
I am not the best person on Twitter. I have a few accounts I have to keep up with so I”m not always on, I’m trying to be better for UNB! I ran across Helux Gear on Twitter. I looked at their site and they are doing something new in the world of mens underwear. They have a pouch that is made like a double helix. Yup the pouch sort of wraps around to form a fly in the pouch
When I first saw this on their site it looked like it could be really cool or come off bad. So when they offered to send me some I jumped at the chance. I got to give these a test run and was super excited. The package came and it has three pairs in it! The first pair I will review is Brief.
I will say I loved the light blue color. It’s almost a sky blue in color. The pair put me in a really good mood! I slid it on and at first I was like. HUH? Its not a pouch I was accustomed too. It seemed to be a little lower. But with that said, when i talked to them they said the first batch didn’t have the exact pouch they wanted. So I kept that in mind when I put them on.
After a second I figured out to adjust myself in them and they fit pretty well. Granted I still felt a bit wonky in them, but I made me wonder if the day went on would it hold up.
The pouch, as many of you know is the most important factor for me. It can make a or break a far for me. So when you create a new pouch I am instantly interested and hope it lives up. After I got positioned in them and noticed it was a bit lower than i normally like. It didn’t constrict or bind me like I thought it may but felt like a normal pouch. As the day went on, I didn’t notice it was any different.
The pouch also is very functional. I know we have many readers who hate a fly in underwear. So when I got home I had to see how it worked. The fly is held in place by elastic. It’s not binding or cut off any circulation. I pulled the elastic on the pouch to the side and it was easier than most fly to use. I put it back in place and hoped it would go back in place. A little adjustment was needed but it held everything in place. I really like the new innovative design.
The sizing was pretty good. I wear a size 38 was it right now and the large in the brand run 36-38. It’s pretty standard sizing as you would expect. The fit was pretty good to me so I doubt you will have issues with sizing if you get a pair. The waistband fit great and other than the pouch feeling wonky to begin with, it was a great pair that held up pretty well throughout the day.
Pros:
- Innovative new design
- Great color – Blue
- Good sizing options
Cons:
- Some guys may not like the pouch, it’s different
- Only available in a two colors.
Ratings:
- Daily Fit – 9
- Sizing – 9
- Construction – 9
- Styling – 9
- Daily Performance – 9
- Overall – 9
This pair was furnished by HeluxGear for review. You can find this and the other two styles on their site for $24.00. If you’re looking for a fun new design check these out!
I had a reader (who shall be nameless for now) email me and he told me that he tried new underwear. While this may not be ground breaking news for many of you, but there are tons of guys out there who stick to just one style. A reader reaching out me made me super excited that we exposed a guy to some undies and he took a chance on it. They could be big boxer briefs, briefs or jock fans. They rarely try things outside of their styles.
I am the kind of guy I like a little of everything. I have underwear from thongs/g-strings to long boxer briefs. Also I have everything in between. I have not always been so open. My teens and till probably my early 30’s I wouldn’t venture outside of briefs. But once I did I didn’t look back.
So what makes you guys try something new? I think it depends on which type of underwear guy you are.
Which type of underwear guy are you?
Tried and True – You have a style and you stick to it. You know what you like and like what you know. You don’t venture out to other styles. When you go shopping you know what styles and brands you like
Dabbler – You have a main pair you like but you’re not opposed to trying something new when it strikes your eye. When you go shopping you look at your favorite style but will browse other sections and occasionally buy something outside your fav style.
Equal Opportunity Underwear wearer – You have a massive collection of everything. Your daily mood determines your underwear. When you go shopping you check out everything and could buy any style.
The Experimenter – The experimenter is one who wants the newest designs. You don’t want plain and boring and are always on the cutting edge of underwear. You want things your friends don’t have. When you go shopping you leave the boring stuff and try to find the newest colors, styles and there is on telling which you will buy
I would say I’m more of an Equal Opportunity Underwear Wearer. I am open to to any style while I prefer briefs but I won’t rule a pair out, I even have a pair of boxers I like. Let us know what type of guy you are!
