Men’s Underwear

Category

Popular LGBT social networking site, Connexion.org, today announced that they have teamed up with fashion-forward underwear and swimwear brand, Baskit, to find some of the best looking men across the US and make them Baskit underwear models. Men who think they have got what it takes need only to strip down to their favorite pair of underwear, snap a picture and submit it online via www.connexion.org/baskit.

All submissions must be received by midnight Sunday, May 23, 2010. All submissions from eligible participants will be reviewed by Baskit’s talent agency, which will select 40 finalists. Those 40 finalists will then be paired off in the first stage of the model search, which starts May 26 on the connexion.org site. Connexion members will be asked to vote for their favorite models. Each of the four stages will last for one week, with the winners of each stage moving on to the next round. Five finalists will compete in the final round, and the top three will be selected as Baskit Models and included in a future marketing campaign.

Participants are encouraged to get all of their friends to vote for them, but a free Connexion account is required for voting. This contest is only open to Connexion members who are male and at least 18 years of age, residing in the United States.

It’s time to come clean!  I have to confess that this is my first time experiencing any product from N2N Bodywear.  Yes, I’m a virgin.  That’s as far as I’ll take this confession.  Receiving both the cotton pouch brief along with the matching v neck t-shirt was a double treat.

Upon first inspection, this ensemble first triggered the thought of pure luxury.  This is not to imply expensive (because their price point is on target) but rather in the sense of total comfort, weightlessness, and classic styling.  After wearing for a full day, I was totally on key with my initial impression.  Guys, these are the most comfortable and amazingly shear yet form fitting briefs and matching t-shirt that I’ve experienced in years.  It’s seldom when you find both that complement your body and meet expectations; it’s generally a mixed bag.  In this case, however, I was completely satisfied with the construction, the enhancing pouch in the brief, and the overall comfort this silhouette set provides.

As mentioned in previous reviews, I typically don’t gravitate toward briefs, but you can’t help falling in love with these because they feel incredibly soft and lightweight.  Based on my skin tone, I’m not a total fan of the color, which they call violet ice; however, I can totally see the v-neck  paired underneath a smart sports jacket along with a pair of dark washed jeans giving a classic and yet stylish and sporty look. This line does come available in other colors including burnt orange, navy, black, white, and golden mist.  There’s plenty of visual diversity for everyone!

If you like the freedom of movement combined with support and sexy, pouch enhancing designs, this line is not doubt for you.  With a mixed blend of 90% extremely sheer and soft cotton and 10% spandex, you simply can’t go wrong.  Give them a try!

Evan is a white collar corporate suit by day- and a hot muscled surfer bad boy in his off hours. Here Evan shows off the hot new summer colors in DMK-Designs revolutionary new “Down Under” line… The unique design element of this line is engineered to thrust your package up and out- elongating and defining in classic sexy style options. Evan plays with a classic sculpted brief, a low rise boxer brief and sexy butt baring jock-(the last two styles are only pre-orders at this date). Evan obviously looks awesome in all of the styles -and seems to enjoy pulling them on and peeling them all off for our viewing pleasure! Thank you, Evan! You can find more shots of Evan (and loads of other hot DMK models) and the new line at www.dmk-designs.com – check out the “photo gallery” section.

Bruno Banani – These are from Dead Good Undies! The reason we are profiling them is for the colors. This is a use of colors we haven’t seen too much in the world of undies. We know it’s not for everyone but still they are fun I think. They would be awesome for summer. Imagine wearing these under your suit. It is not something I would expect under a suit!

L’Homme Invisible – Dazzle in all the colors of the rainbow! The stunning men’s underwear collection from L’Homme Invisible is a UK exclusive only available  at Dead Good Undies. They are interesting cuts and our friends at DGU always have some fun undies. They aren’t afraid to take risks and bring really new and innovative underwear to the masses!

2(x)ist Camo – 2(x)ist’s Camo Collection offers a robust military look made from 90% cotton and 10% Spandex for a supportive, body-hugging fit. Whether you’re a gunner, a ranger or an ordinary civilian, color-coordinated waistbands and camouflage patterns combine to create an overall look that’s aggressively masculine. Just when you thought there camo craze was over, 2(x)ist springs a new line on us. They are a really fun camo pattern and available in both a brief and trunk. The pictures in this post were from International Jock, who just happens to have the entire 2(x)ist Camo line!

Most of us agree that there is good and bad in everyone and I suspect that 2Wink used this same concept to come with their new dueling pair of underwear; Cool Devil and Hot Angel.  As shown in the picture above, the Cool Devil is your basic white pair of underwear but with a catching red and yellow waistband sporting the 2wink signature across the waist band with red accented trim around the legs.  The arch nemesis, Hot Angel comes in blue with a white/blue waistband and white elastic around the legs. While the manufacturer classifies these as boxers, they’re cut high around the leg and at first glance appear to be briefs.

When first slipping into this mix of cotton and spandex undies, I was instantly impressed by the texture and weight.  It’s amazing at how little 8% of spandex can go a long way in a pair to create amazing comfort and spring back benefits.  I wore these all day while running errands and cleaning up around the condo.  While they are extremely comfortable, I found them a little problematic with staying in place around the leg, which is not typical of a traditional boxer.  I like the style, weight and stretch quality of these boxers, but not a fan of those that are cut this high around the leg; a total personal preference.

If you like this cut or interested in trying something close to a brief but without sacrificing the comfort of a boxer, these might be the idea pair for you.  The final dilemma is deciding if you’re evil’s defiance or the enemy of evil!

I must confess that upon receiving this new thong from Andrew Christian, it was graciously accepted with a bit of trepidation.  While, jocks are not typical of my underwear collection, I was curious with this particular pair considering that Andrew Christian is notorious for their forward thinking designs and superb construction, which honestly is a prerequisite for any thong I’m willing to sport.

Upon opening the packaging, I was impressed with the dry mesh fabric which is known to dry 4 times faster than cotton and doesn’t discolor. This is a new patent Dry Technology that is incorporated into AC’s Dry & Naked Jock and/or Thong with Show-It Technology collection.  This performance thong features a back panel that is designed so that the center strap won’t ride up and become uncomfortable. The sides and back are white and the cup is a contrasting gray with a black waistband and Andrew Christian in white lettering that travels around the entire band.

Perhaps the most intriguing feature of this thong is the comfortable cup that is lined with super soft fabric that gently lifts your package and keeps the family jewels comfortably in place.  I was a little skeptical at first but after wearing them all day, I was totally amazed and oddly enough fell in love with this thong.  Not to mention the fact that it adds about 1.5 inches to your appendage as advertised by the manufacturer.  Needless to say, less can be more!

In summary, never judge a thong solely on its stereotypical and historical reputation.   If you haven’t ever tried a thong or if you’re a seasoned fan, this pair is totally the right pair you want to experience. This evaluation only confirms the committed quality and new technologies that Andrew Christian continues to deliver in every line that is incorporated in their underwear designs.

Andrew Christian Almost Naked Fusion BriefIf there is one brand that has the best chance to take designer underwear mainstream, it would certainly be Andrew Christian.  To be honest, this is the first pair of Andrew Christians I’ve owned.  Everyone I know that knows anything about underwear has a pair…if not multiple pairs.  After a few times wearing my first pair, I can easily see why.  This is truly amazing underwear.  Truly amazing!  I’m quite excited to write this review because it is underwear the whole world needs to know about.

Promises are something I value highly.  When someone, or a brand, tells me something, I expect them to keep their promises.  You may be asking yourself, “What promises in underwear are there?”  I find it quite obvious.  Though it really isn’t that big of a deal, I think it’s important for a brand to uphold their statements.  That promise in this case is frontal support.  Let me tell you, this pair keeps its promises.

You might be wondering what this awesome pair of underwear is created of and it’s kind of surprising.  It’s made of 94% Rayon…from Bamboo.  That’s right, I said it!  Bamboo.  The other 6% is Spandex.  It’s so comfortable.  Another promise AC makes is that it feels like nothing is there.  They are right as you really forget you are wearing it.  The front support is a dream.  It’s really a whole package, pun or not.  I put this underwear through the daily test and it passed.  Through class, daily activities, and working out, it proved to be good, supporting underwear.  If your drawer is lacking, you seriously need to buy this underwear.  If it isn’t lacking, buy it anyway.
