Thanks to Tim, these Timoteo Briefs are ones I had been eyeing so I am so grateful he was able to get it for me to review! It’s the Timoteo Classic Super Low Rise Brief and I am reviewing a purple pair. The brief runs very small and the XL is a bit small on me, but still wearable.
The brief features the lowest rise of any of the nearly 60 pairs of briefs I own and is composed of 96% cotton and 4% spandex. Ultimately its a very simple construction, and outside of its low-rise, its design strays little from a traditional designer brief.
I wore them for an entire day at the office and a basic night at home the same night. When I first got them on I must say I was a bit nervous about the fit being too small, especially since this brief doesn’t have a contour pouch, and when I got them on, I thought my package would be smashed and uncomfortable all day. I was wrong on one account. Since the construction of these briefs doesn’t include a contour pouch, my package was a bit smashed, but not in a bad way, necessarily.
The fit overall was a bit “interesting” for me because I’m 6’4″ and athletically built and I have a very long waist which is why I like low-rise briefs, but this is as low rise as it gets. Additionally, I was “blessed” with a decent sized package and while the pouch was fairly constrictive, I was shocked to notice that my natural “hang” was never disturbed at any point of the day, simply because your junk will not move once you get these on. I was also surprised by the full coverage the back gives you while still maintaining a modern look and fit.
The materials that go into this brief are of high quality. The cotton mimics the sturdiness of a “pique” cotton without that material being used, and the spandex is firm but unnoticeable during wear, which is a nice plus. Stylistically, the brief’s low rise and silvery logo’d waistband are a nice style touch, and your options of Purple, Red, or (Army) Green are the only colors that will make this brief say “look at me.”
Overall, this is a brief I really wanted to be impressed by but my high hopes were met with only the feeling of serviceable satisfaction. Frankly, I just don’t think designers should be able to get by with a sexy brief design featuring a couple of attractive colors without a contour pouch. Now I know that these briefs are a part of Timoteo’s “Classic” line meaning they’re for the guys who aren’t huge risk takers with their choice in underwear, and I know other lines from this label do feature contour pouches, but I’m puzzled as to why this one doesn’t. It generally fits well, and is again, a serviceable pair of briefs that look nice, maybe if I had tampered my expectations I would have been a bit more positive, but on the whole, these earn a “B”.
Pros:
- Comfortable
- Supportive
- Classic Fit
Cons:
- Small Pouch
Fit – 4
Materials – 5
Construction – 3.5
Look – 4
Daily Wear – 4
Overall *OUT of 5* – 4

Today’s Brief Distraction is from Timoteo’s Cellblock13. When at Magic this past week I found out that we will hopefully have a lot of new pics from Timoteo over the next few weeks!

The combination of Designer Timoteo, Photographer Allen Zaki and Model Steven Dehler together and it gets even hotter. Timoteo worked with Allen and Steven to shoot some of the hot new swimwear for the summer. The shoot has a fun suburban feeling to it and model Steven gives it that smoken hot look with some body and swim. Timoteo Noted “Its always challenging to work on location, but I really think we got some fun images. I love working with talented people like Allen and Steven.”
How about another awesome pic from Timoteo. This again features model Steven Dehler, who you no doubt have seen around the net. The photography is by Allen Zaki. We have a few more we will post on Tumblr and Facebook!

Today’s Brief Distraction features Cellblock13 from Timoteo! This is the his line that is a little more fun and fetish then the regular line. Let us know what you think of the line.
Today’s Brief Distraction is from Cellblock13. Which is a really fun line from Timoteo. It’s not for everyone but for those who dare to wear it can be very sexy. Timoteo worked with Trenton Ducati and Tate Ryder on this shoot for CellBlock 13. Timoteo :”I loved working with both these guys, both down to earth and easy to work with. It was a fun shoot and looking forward to shooting with T&T again.”
This is our first Underwer of the Month were you the readers get to choose who will be the Underwear of the Month. The four choices are above (left to right): C-IN2 Grip Profile brief, N2N Bodywear Air G, Go Softwear Rainwash Jock and lastly the Timoteo Clubhouse Football Short!
You can vote for the next week and feel free to put in the form why you think it should be the Underwear of the Month.
This week’s Underwear of the Week is a Boxer Brief! The perfect pair was just released from Timoteo. That pair is the Clubhouse Football Short. The same pair was released a few months back in the Rugby line and proved very popular. As you can see this pair is Black, Grey and a Red/White waistband.
- Styled with a lace up front
- Front pouch is fitted with enough stretch and room for comfortable movement
- Made of 96% Cotton, 4% Spandex
The reason we choose this pair is it’s something fun and original. It’s not just the same boxer brief. Timoteo does a great job in designing underwear and we think creativity in underwear should be rewarded! Hence, why it’s our first Boxer Brief as Underwear of the week
Over the weekend we will begin voting of our four pairs that will be the Underwear of the Month!

Today’s Brief Distraction is from the Cellblock13 line from Timoteo. If you couldn’t tell this line is more of a fetish line. Fetish is one thing we haven’t covered much. However, we may give it a little more coverage with some of the bigger names in underwear stepping outside the box! Let us know what you think of covering more “fetish” lines!
Today’s Brief Distraction is from Timoteo‘s Cellblock13. Here is what they said about the shoot. “This was shot back a few weeks ago by Timoteo Ocampo. Israel has shot with Timoteo before but this time his Boyfriend Shawn decided to join in. Everyone loves Israel’s tattoos but Shawn’s handsome good looks have some tongues wagging here. “
Timoteo, the Los Angeles based men’s athletic-wear brand catering to stylish men seeking the ultimate in comfort and design, unleashes its next generation fitness brief this summer, Timoteo SPORT 2.0. Made from a cotton/spandex blend, the collection features the season’s steamiest colors in contrasting designs (white against orange & blue trim, royal blue against varsity green trim, black against red and black against striker blue trim) in four bold styles: the SUPER LOW, the SCOUT BOXER BRIEF, the best selling ATHLETE JOCK and the SOCCER JOCK. All styles feature Timoteo’s contemporary custom-designed waistband. Timoteo SPORT 2.0 is available now at specialty stores, online retailers and at Timoteo.net
“SPORT 2.0 is the new-and-improved version of one of our best-selling collections ever,” said Timoteo Ocampo, Creative Director and Co-Owner of Timoteo. “Similar to the original line, briefs are specially geared towards the athletic guy who spends a great deal of his day working out in the gym. He drinks protein shakes, wears weight lifting gloves and belts. The SPORT 2.0 collection is one more tool to help him reach his full fitness potential… and look damn good while doing it.”
Before launching his own label, Ocampo worked as a designer; first for XOXO and later at Baby Phat, where he helped launch the brand with Russell Simmons and Kimora Lee. He names Yves Saint Laurent as one of his greatest influences.
“Our customers are constantly offering their feedback and what we hear most is they are bored of off-the-shelf underwear with no style,” continues Ocampo. “They want underwear that has a personality, is sporty, and available in a wide assortment of fresh, fun colors.”
The demand for SPORT 2.0 is so great, the line has already begun shipping to retailers in the UK, Russia, Mexico, New Zealand, Australia, Japan as well as the USA and Canada.
“As the economy gets stronger and there is more consumer spending towards personal items, we are seeing a demand for a more diverse underwear drawer in men’s closets,” agrees Joel Johnston, CEO and Co-Owner of Timoteo, who predicts SPORT 2.0 will be merely the beginning of the label’s sports offerings. “Men have more money to spend and they are spending it on quality designs.”
In addition to SPORT 2.0, Timoteo is unveiling a second underwear line for summer 2012 called Classic Luxury Mesh, set to release June 1st.
“As an underwear designer it is my job to keep the designs fresh and unique and ahead of the curve,” Ocampo says.
Timoteo launched ten years ago as a small storefront in West Hollywood, CA that manufactured select fashion pieces for men. It has since evolved into a fun and hip brand that produces a full line of product across multiple categories including, underwear, swim wear, denim and sportswear.

Firs thing I have to do before we get into the guide is thank the awesome sponsors above! Pistol Pete – Gold Sponsor, Clever/Vuthy & Croota – Silver Sponsors and Good Boy Gone Bad and UnderGear as Bronze sponsors! Without them this guide would not have taken place. Next, I have to thank our photographer Brian from Seven Continents Photography and our Models Cody, Christian and Juan.
