Create your own undies


I have often wanted to have custom-made underwear that I have designed myself. As I hinted at previously, DT Clothes has come out with such a thing. You can create your own underwear here, but it does come with a cost. A simple jockstrap (customized) is 45AUD and a simple (customized) boxerbrief is 65AUD. But I think it's well worth it. Who doesn't want to have custom text written across the butt of their undies? I am excited with this new system, but there are a few things that it is lacking that I would really like to see before I deem it perfect:
-First and foremost: DT Clothes is known (at least in my mind) for their fun and funky patterned undies, but you can only have plain colored fabrics used in your custom undies. I'd really like to see the implement using some of the patterned fabrics into the custom undie system (even if it does cost more).
-I would like to be able to control the color and font of the custom text as well as the exact location (kind of like online T-shirt making engines)
-I would like to have more customization options besides fabric, trim and waistband. I'd really like to be able to change each section of the fabric individually (like the converse custom shoes).
-I would like to have my own custom waistband text.
-I would like to be able to order multiple pairs in different sizes (like for use as sports team underpants)
-I would like to be able to order a custom matching tank top (since they do make tanks, I should be able to customize them)
-Also I would like to know where the jockstrap text prints since there is no butt covering on a jockstrap


So, it's not perfect. But it is a start. And I'm very excited to order a pair or two.

DT Clothes (Jocks)


I'd like to let you know about a brand that I have talked just a little bit about before. Yes you guessed it, DT Jocks (now known as DT Clothes). They have just launched a new line of their very fun underwear. This new line includes new styles and new patterns as well as a really spiffy new web site. They have a few of their classic colors and prints still available, as well as a plethora of new and fun patterns to choose from. They also have broadened their underwear line from just boxers, boxerbriefs, and briefs, to boxers, boxerbriefs, briefs (with lots of variations on the front fly), jocks, and newly styled boxers. They also will be launching a new section very soon (my sources tell me by the end of the month) called "make your own undies". Here you will be able to choose the style, fabric, colors, waistbands, and even add your own text (and maybe graphics?). This should be a very exciting development. I have never seen a site where you can design your own undies, I've seen design your own shoes multiple times (from the likes of Vans and Converse), but never design your own undies. I am very excited to try this new feature out. When I do I will be sure to give you all a full report. Until then, check out their site and buy yourself some new "Dick Togs*". Also if you order now, you get free shipping on all orders over $100 AUD. Review of their new underwear line to come soon.

*Dick Togs - Aussie slang for underwear and/or swimmwear. The name of this brand (DT Jocks) is derived from this slang.
