Let’s face it, we all want underwear that is super sexy. That’s part of the reason we really want to buy underwear. If it doesn’t feel sexy then why bother right? The newest range from aussieBum is the Riot line. First thing you notice is the color. The bright blue trim and waistband offset the white sports mesh material.
The next thing you notice is the cut outs. There are two cut outs, the first is over the pouch and the second is in the back (well in the brief), the jock is of course open but has the same front as the brief. Last thing you may notice in the pics is the material. It’s a white sports mesh! Which leads me to wonder if you use this to work out will it become see through? This maybe a sticking point to some and a selling point to others!
aussieBum has never been a stranger to hot undies. They released the new Rugby shorts a while back and now are entering a more sports market. Granted I don’t know if we’ll see these at the gym but they would be great for working out, activities and a great date! The brief is around $25 and the jock is $23 at the aussieBum site.
If you’re a fan of our Brief Distractions then you will love UNB Photography. Originally a site used to promote the best in underwear photography and interviews with models, photographers and brands. I decided UNB is the best place for interviews. However there is so much amazing photography we don’t profile on the blog. So this site will be pretty much all galleries of pictures. Ones we have uploaded already are:
- Jockstrap Centrals’ Bike 10 Pics (pictured above)
- Mike Stalker for C-IN2 as photographed by Rick Day
- CR7 Launch Pictures
- Basskit Colorado Fire Fighters
- Underwear Nation Timoteo Varsity Shoot
And much more. We will be adding them as we get them and uploading some older pics. Don’t expect to see much text but tons of great pics! So go to the site and check it out and follow UNB Photography on Twitter to see all posts as they go live and the UNB Photography Facebook page to post pics when appropriate for FB

It was snow central down here in the south. Roads shut down, people in their houses, what do you do? If you’re model Derek Yates you strip to your C-IN2 undies and take a few pics. These are awesome!
I asked our guys, what you are planning to wear for Valentine’s Day. We have a mix of single/dating and gay/straight so where are what some of us will be wearing.
Alex – I’ll be wearing my new Andrew Christian punted tighty whitie jock. It’s a new sexy take on an old classic. Just the fun valentines day needs!!
Shane – Being the special day that it is to celebrate love and infatuation, I will be wearing the color of love – RED! I will be wearing the newest pair of red underwear that I have added to my collection, the Modus Vivendi metallic loose fit boxer. It is simply wonderful! I love the stripes being dark and bright red with a slightly metallic sheen. They fit great and look great. These are not your dad’s boxers. They make me feel confident and look great on. Love them!
T – I’ll be wearing the Gregg Homme Pump Up Thong, just in case I bump into a guy who wants to start a whirlwind romance then and there 🙂 I’ll be wearing good undies, supportive, but still scandalous.
John – Having been in a relationship now for over 8 years, Valentines Day is just another day that I get to spend with the guy that I love. As for my underwear selection… I think I will be in a jock. My partner loves when I wear a jockstrap, so since the day is about showing him how much I love him, that is the way I will go. I have a cute new pair of Andrew Christians that will be just perfect. It is a pair of his dark red Teaser Air Jock. I love these because they are super comfy and light weight with plenty of room so they are great to wear all day, yet sexy and playful so that what ever happens that night is just as exciting.
Tim (ME) – I”ll be traveling so I won’t have any romantic dinners unless you count having one on a Southwest flight 32,000 feet in the air with 200 of my closest friends. I am going to wear my John Seivers California Gold Brief. This is one of the best briefs I have for traveling. Will anyone see it, NOPE just me but I’ll be in Vegas that night so how bad could it be?
ES Collection has a great new line of active wear. This is part of the new collection that includes the runners as well. Enjoy the picture
I’ve been an avid fan of underwear for way too many years. I see new styles I like, new colors or patterns, or just a new version of an old favorite and I simply have to have it. I wait until I can find it on sale (I do have bills to pay, you know) and then I strike. There’s usually a package in the mail containing a pair or two at least twice a month. So it’s no wonder that my collection has outgrown the space I’ve designated to store them in. I have two drawers in my dresser where I keep the ones that I wear on a regular basis. Two other storage containers in the closet keep the ones that I don’t wear but simply can’t bear to part with. Is it time for an intervention? Some might think so, but I don’t think I’m quite at hoarder status yet. Not quite, but close.
I recently decided it was time to do some organizing. Usually when i do the laundry I just throw all my underwear into one of the two designated drawers. So every morning when I am getting dressed I spend a good amount of time rummaging, digging through the pile to see what strikes my fancy for the day. This is what one of the drawers looks like on any given day.
I painstakingly took them all out of the drawer and laid them out on the bed. Separated them by brand and style. If I had the space I would have just left them there, they looked so nice.
I posed the question on twitter, asking my followers how they managed their underwear. Here are some of their responses.
@Sergio_Trentin Jan 22 : Usually I roll up all my underwear and I place in a fine Ikea boxes for briefs or boxers.
@BikinisNThongs : By style. Thongs, bikinis, jocks, etc. are all in their own drawers.
separate drawers for style, but just tossed in one big messy pile in each drawer.
My organization works because I typically know what style I want to wear that day based on mood, etc. Then I just reach in a drawer and get a surprise. Its very rare that I’m looking for a very specific pair. I have considered keeping another drawer for my most favorites….those that I like to wear for special occasions. But then I feel like they would be excluded from the normal rotation.
@undiescanuck : By style, then alphabetical by brand 🙂
I decided to go with rolling up the underwear. It seemed like a good way to get the sorted and hopefully keep them that way. And much easier than trying to fold them. This is what I ended up with.
So far it seems to have worked. They are three deep down in the drawer, with the ones that I wear most often from each brand at the top. Easy to get to the other ones should I decide I want to wear something a little different. Now here is the next problem. This is only one drawer. I still have another drawer to do. Should I do the same thing or something different? And what about all those pairs in the close that I don’t wear at all? Does it ever end? Let’s hope not! =)
It’s Monday, wear some great undies and pick some great colors such as these from Skmpeez! We believe every Monday you should wear BRIGHT underwear
