Our friends over at Planet Undies sent us this about the Manstore revealing five new lines, sexier than ever, based on fabrics manufactured in limited series. Here are three of the lines!
M225
Satin Weave a sensitive erotic spell around many men. Some like the satin as a kimono, others writhe sensuously between satin sheets. Manstore now provides the ultimate erotic Satin Bodywear Series. It has the addition of a little bit of Lycra of course so that the masculine contours are shown off to their bet advantage. Black, magenta and cyan are highlighted with a contrasting insert in tone-intone. THe Jock-string pant is very hot; it only looks harmless from the front. When he turns around, he turns on because of the unreserved view. For a cool clubbing appearance there is a matching Raglan shirt which is rather sexy due to its deep cut v-neck.
M202
the call for “invisible” underwear is loud, especially for wearing under white summer trousers and white sportswear or when white clothing is a part of the job. Manstore has answered the call in a very stylish manner. The flesh tone articles are in no way reminiscent of granny’s corset. Just the opposed in fact. the thin micro-jersey ha the sexy effect of lightly sun-bronzed summer skin. In the current Manstore catalogue the Skin series has proved to be a hardcore outfit. Together with Army caps, Leather Bands and Camouflage Baggies this fine fabric has become part of the bold, through come on. The selection consists of a Tower String, Hip Brief, Micropo Brief and Mini Pant. New is the V-Shirt with a deep cut collar.
M213
The snake is, and always will be the symbol of the skin of temptation in paradise. Manstore shows, with the M213 – a realistic photo reproduction of snakeskin – the best place to be under the sun. The print is reproduced either in stone grey or completely crazy in light pink. In addition to the, now almost normal Towerstring, a Cashestring is shown as a Semimini version; also a Silver String which connects the three narrow bands to a chain triangle in the back. These undies range from scanty to classic. The whole wrange of course with perfect fit.
We have another great pictures from Shaun Simpson! This is his new model Steven who is wearing C-IN2! I hope you enjoy!
Now men everywhere can expect more from their undershirt! Industry leader Spanx is re-shaping men’s abs and expectations with COTTON compression undershirts designed for everyday wear that are guaranteed to perform every time.
In 2000, Spanx founder Sara Blakely launched Footless Pantyhose and revolutionized the way women look and feel in their clothes. Now, she is doing the same for men with the introduction of a cotton compression undershirt designed to comfortably firm the chest, flatten the stomacproh, improve posture, and eliminate bulk under clothes. Combining the look and feel of every man’s favorite classic undershirt with state-of-the-art cotton compression, the revolutionary construction has set a new standard for men.
“Men’s undershirts have been underperforming for as long as they’ve been around, with stretched out necks and bulky cuts that do nothing for the male physique,” said Spanx founder Sara Blakely. “The men in my life (and in Hollywood) have been asking me to make SPANX for men for years, so I was inspired to create comfortable and powerful undershirts that provide instant gratification without gimmicks. It’s your favorite t-shirt without your least favorite part…love handles.”
Now available on spanx.com and at Neiman Marcus, Nordstrom, Saks Fifth Avenue, and Bloomingdales, the SPANX Cotton Compression Undershirt is available in three classic styles that have every man covered: Crew Neck ($58), V-Neck ($58), and Tank ($55) in sizes S-XXL and colors white and black.
Cool. Classic. Contained…The SPANX Cotton Compression Undershirt is man’s new best friend with benefits:
- It sucks to suck in, and now you don’t have to thanks to high-stretch cotton for maximum comfort and containment.
- Lose the love handles with an ergonomic, tapered shape that provides powerful body control.
- Stay cool with high-quality, soft cotton that allows for ultimate breathability and moisture absorption.
- Go all day and night with 36 gauge stitching that provides fabric longevity and durability.
- Fuhget about it. With flat-lock side seams that remain invisible under clothing, you’ll forget you have it on.
They have arrived! I have heard so many requests for a Spanx line for men! But, its just undershirts and I have no doubt we will see an entire line from them very soon! Stay tuned
Here is another great picture from Cocksox! The perfect pair to wear to the office! I hope you enjoy these series of pictures!

First off I want to thank Chat H. in the Facebook page for posting this. This is an ad that 2(x)ist wanted to run in various magazines. They included Details and Men’s Health. But they two magazines rejected the ad for being too racy. How ever the ad has run in the June/July of Out Magazine.
This brings me to something that has been going through my mind. Why is it men’s underwear ads are a lot more conservative then women’s. There is a TV Commercial about bra and how it fits plus sized women, Victoria Secret models wearing thongs and the list goes on. While the world of men’s underwear advertising is basically non existent in the main stream media. The only place I have seen magazine ads have been in the gay publications, Out, Advocate, and Instinct.
This has not always been the case thought, back in the 80’s, Baseball Hall of Fame player, Jim Palmer often graced the pages of People, Time and others in his bikini briefs. Let’s hope we get some mainstream media exposure for the brands we cover!
What do you think? Do you think there is a double standard when it comes to mens’ underwear ads? (I hope this makes since, still sick but trying to be coherent )

SKMPEEZ was launched by two best friends in the summer of 2008. One, a designer, the other a businessman both with a love for fun in the sun and travelling. In preparation for a trip down south, the two searched high and low for the perfect swimsuit that not only made a statement but was still classy and fit well. After hours of searching store after store and then online, only one came home with a less than perfect suit. Following their trip, the two decided that with their skills they could design and produce their own swimsuits that were unique, fun, stylish and sexy. SKMPEEZ was born!

Go Softwear™ ushered in a new era of men’s undergarments in 1996 with the introduction of men’s padded underwear. Before the word metrosexual was in vogue Go Softwear undergarments were becoming a favorite among young, image and body conscious males. Since then Go Softwear has introduced a range of underwear, workout wear and swimwear “with an edge”. The most popular style of underwear is the introduction of the “low rise brief,” inspired by the popularity of the lo-rise jean trend. The contour European fit with bold comic book colors and playfulness have become a favorite choice in men’s fashion underwear.

Celebrity Fashion Designer Andrew Christian is finally coming home – after a whirl-wind past two years – to fulfill his biggest dream yet, opening up his own boutique. For the past two months Andrew has been hidden in his secretive bunker setting up shop. From the store layout, to the color scheme, to the mannequins diving from the ceiling, to the cash register that doubles as a “bar” it all came from Andrew. Don’t believe it, check the exclusive 3-D architectural renderings that have never been seen before publicly, until now.
If you’re still thinking this is simply an “Andrew Christian” store – then you couldn’t be farther from the truth. Besides carrying his own line, Andrew has also “cherry-picked” various lines from other designers that will be featured in the store that compliment his design philosophy.
Additionally, each month will feature a different outfit styled by a famous face in the fashion or entertainment industry. The first month will feature celebrity stylist Marcellas Reynolds from E! Entertainment’s “Perfect Catch” and Style Network’s “How So I Look”.
Moreover, Andrew will be stopping by the store quite often to host the numerous special events such as free Boot Camps and Yoga sessions to get you in shape for summer! Check the store or website for future details.
The Andrew Christian Flagship Store will have a soft opening on Monday, May 24th at 11AM, with the official Grand Opening on Saturday, May 29th at 11AM. As a thank you, Andrew will be sending out a secret word via his Twitter and Facebook – the first 100 people through the door on May 29th, with the secret word, will get an Andrew Christian Limited Edition canvas shoulder bag filled with surprises!
