No Underwear Week

Well you could take this in a couple ways. You could think that I want you to go around commando (without underwear) for a week. But this is not what I mean. What I mean is I won't have time this coming up week to blog about underwear so I just wanted to give you a heads-up that I am not quitting I just don't have time. In the mean time comment on posts. Do the polls. Try out some new underwear. And e-mail me some suggestions about what to blog about when I get back. Thank you for underwe...sorry I get so used to typing underwear...understanding.

Denim boxer-brief



Here is a cool boxer-brief made by Unico(Unico's site is hard to navigate unless you speak spanish). It is made with a heathered wash to give it the look of denim but the nice softness of cotton. It also has some spandex in it for that nice fitted look. It has no fly and looks like it has a seperate penis pouch on the front. It also has a tab logo on it so it gives it that genuine blue jean look. It comes in heather, blue, sky, or red. Shown is sky. It has a logo waistband that says "XXX"(that's the line of Unico) on it. If you look at the second picture you can see that it is put together in a unique way and has different seams than normal underwear to help enhance the whole look. It is available on Amazon for $14.99. I think these are really nice. They give nice support and have a comfortable feel with a novelty denim look. The price is fairly good for the look. I would recommend these for all occasions.

Boxer Briefs


One of the new big things in men's underwear is boxer-briefs. For a long time the mainstream options have been just briefs and boxers. But now boxer-briefs is making a huge breakthrough as a nice compromise alternative. Boxer-briefs are for the man who likes the support of briefs and the cut of boxers. Many consider these boxer-briefs to be "the best of both worlds". Boxer-briefs are basically trunks with a bit longer legs. I am quite fond of boxer-briefs and like all the different options there are in boxer-briefs. Besides being comfortable they are also very stylish. Most briefs don't come with interesting patterns and prints on them like boxers. But boxer-briefs can have patterns and prints. A very popular one that I have seen a lot of is horizontal stripes. In the future I plan on blogging a lot about all the different kinds of boxer-briefs there are. These particular boxer-briefs are made by 2(x)ist. They are called 2(x)ist Men's Cotton Boxer Brief on Amazon. A quote from 2(x)ist says "What Makes 2(x)ist so special? 2(x)ist has redefined men's underwear. Attention to detail, coupled with superb quality and numerous options in style, fabrics, colors and fit are what have made 2(x)ist the underwear of choice for contemporary, body conscious men." This is a pretty big thing to live up to but I think 2(x)ist does a very good job of living up to their expectations for theirselves. This particular boxer-brief is made out of 100% cotton with a 1x1 rib layout. They have an exposed microfiber logo waistband. The silhouette is a 3-part gusset with center panel grain cut vertically and side panels cut horizontally. And they have a fully functioning fly that has the look of no fly so that the fly doesn't fly open in an inconveinent time. It also has a special design so that it won't ride up and give you a wedgie. Which is really nice because most tight underwear has a tendancy to do this and if you are trying to work and get things done it can be a little annoying to have your "knickers" in a knot in your ass. Altogether 2(x)ist's boxer-brief is very well designed. Although I personally haven't tried these out for myself many people online and that I know love them and I am very tempted to go out and buy some right now after I finish this post. Basically that is a strong recommendation so if you are into underwear, which is why you are here, then you should definately own some of these in your collection.

Classic Brief from aussieBum


Yes you think that briefs are boring, but they don't have to be. These are very practical briefs from aussieBum. AussieBum makes "underwear made by Australian guys for guys all over". These are really nice briefs. They are low-rise so they won't show above your low-rise jeans. They are sexy. They are good quality. They are made out of durable 100% cotton and are ribbed. And this particular kind are ice blue. They are a bit on the pricey side but they look great, feel great, wear great, and last long. And they are a great modification to the standard boring white brief. These briefs will help you stand out from the crowd. They cost $17.95 at Amazon.com.

Sock Jock


Here is a new kind of underwear. It is made by International Male or Undergear(the reason for the uncertainty is I'm unsure who makes it because both of their websites say they do and amazon gives credit to both as well) and it's called the Sock Jockstrap. This is really kind of cool because it has no straps. It just has a waistband with a jock front attached. The jock front is designed so that it stays on by slipping over your penis and the elastic keeps it in place (view little thumbnail on photo for more explanation). It is not recommended for athletics because it gives no support and would probably just fall off. This is really just a novelty and would make a nice turn-on. I think that it is a really good idea and maybe with a little tweaking would be safe for sports. The main reason that one would want to wear this is for a seamless look under clothing. In other words, it doesn't show through your clothing with underwear lines because obviously there is no back and you package makes it so there are none in the front. Need I explain anymore? I don't think so. Anyways I just thought that you might want to check out this exciting new option. It is avaliable at Amazon for $9.99.

Bodysuit





We've all seen the stereotypical bodysuit. The big bulky red things that cover your whole body and button up the front. Yes the kind that only a beer belly looks comfortable in. But that's not what I'm going to talk about in this blog. I'm going to talk about a new kind of bodysuit that Undergear has designed. These bodysuits are really sexy. They are not your typical kind. They have a scoop neck to show off your pecs. And they have a thong back. This is the new thing in underwear. Basically you get your undershirt and undershorts in one. The black one has big scoops in the side to give a tempting look of your skin. The only thing is that it would look a little odd under clothes because if your shirt lifts up there will be a really odd looking scoop of skin showing. The black ones would better to wear as a turn-on in the bedroom. The white ones however would be really nice to where under your clothes because as I said you get all your underwear in one. And the thong and the scoop are really sexy and ribbed. The only problem I could forsee with both of them is that if you sit down or something or it rides up the thong might get caught in your crack and give you a pretty nasty wedgie which would be pretty awkward to pick out. But both of these bodysuits probably look best on a good body; they're not like the big red ones that basically no one looks good in. They are very fitted one could give people a tantilizing look of your body through them. I haven't tried them but they look like a nice thing and I am tempted to buy some except for the price. The white one is currently $19.99 and the black one is $29.99. Although I guess it is pretty good considering that if you bought a thong and a scoop shirt it would cost quite a bit more. So use your judgement but this is a very new and interesting development to consider.

Underwear over the ages (well ok over the decades)

The trends in male underwear have changed over the years. For quite some time every man and boy wore the same kind of underwear as the next. But now there are a lot more options. Some might even say that today's youth have more options than their fathers did. Some might argue that underwear goes in phases. The grandpa age probably wore boxers when he was young. The middle aged men now probably wore briefs when they were young. But today's teenagers have many more options. A lot more is accepted and tolerated in underwear. Or so some might argue.

But I want to explain what this blog is about. Every post will have some topic and then will have a poll where you answer by commenting on the post to the poll. The poll will relate to the topic. If you have any other comments feel free to post them as well. If you have any tips on what I should blog about then feel free to send them to me.
