N2N now at Wyzman



Wyzman now has N2N bodywear underwear in stock! This includes the brand new styles with the new logo waistband that have been very popular recently (I'm not sure if we've posted about them here yet, but hopefully you've seen them elsewhere). The new styles include a brief, bikini, jock, and string so be sure to check out these sexy new styles. I am really loving the new styles. The waistband makes N2N underwear look a little more mainstream while still maintaining their signature flair. I especially like how the straps on the jockstrap are in a contrasting color (something that I don't think I've seen before, or at least not very often).

Jameswinston Co. Officially Launches their new line!

A while back I posted quite a bit about the new line of Jameswinston, well it is finally here! They are all set with a huge launch bonanza that will last for the next 20 days. I cannot tell you quite what it will involve, but there will be some very exciting things happening during it. Even though I have written about this new line before, I'm going to attach the press release below to give you a bit of a refresher. As you may have noticed, Jameswinston has really stepped up their product imagery this time around. Check out some of the great shots below, and for more photos visit their online gallery.
UK web - based men’s underwear brand Jameswinston Co. has officially launched it’s new ‘Retro’ Spring/Summer 2007 line after a box manufacture glitch halted all production. Jameswinston Co. founder Brian James says the delay prompted urgent changes that make for a smoother operation than before. ‘It’s been an extremely challenging period. We’d just begun re-introducing ourselves (as the first part of a two - part marketing campaign) and had already taken orders from two top international web retailers. Then when FHM UK confirmed a feature around Jul/Aug ’07 we knew the buzz around the brand was about to spread.’
So, in addition to the current ‘Retro Trunk’ range (dubbed the ‘cult classic’ due to it’s understated styling and excellent fit) in comes the more contemporarily styled ‘Retro’ and ‘Hipster’ lines in seven ‘sun-friendly’ new colours. Simultaneously released is the innovative NEON TM ‘clubber’s pant’ (four ‘fluorescent bright’ shades and low-rise hipster/brief cut complete with ‘metallic’ stitching and labels) sporting racy names like; Zest, Panther and Tang. Certainly James believes he’s onto a winner. ‘The fashion - forward web retailers instantly hooked onto NEON because it combines ultra - fashionability, fun sex appeal and practicality at a decent price point. In fact, we’re using the same quality fabric mix as the ‘Retro’ - it’s ridiculous that people still overpay for ‘fashion’ items cynically made out of cheap, sweaty fabrics!’
The new ranges all utilize ‘ProFIL Panel ‘‘ TM (pron. Profile) - a double layered, specially cut, front panel that guarantees to naturally accentuate your ‘assets’ without tricky string gimmicks or cloth attachments to over -exaggerate things. ‘Guys definitely want to look ‘impressive’ - but not cartoon-like! I mean, the pants have to come off at some point …right? Our aim for the new lines was to produce cutting edge, yet commercial garments marrying style, quality and fit in equal measures - and early retailer feedback confirms we’ve achieved that.’ James stresses the improvements made since their early deficient marketing efforts. ‘We simply didn’t know our market - remember I was in I.T. hardware’, he says, smiling ironically. ‘Browse our site this time around and you’ll find a classily funky vibe. We wanted ‘market-leader’ level creativity to reflect our product quality and really feel the new ‘live’ imagery nails the all-round uniqueness of this brand.’


James states that instead of re-approaching large retail they’ll simply concentrate on journalistic coverage and internet sales avenues over the next six months. ‘This has been a real-life David versus Goliath story from the very beginning. Our immediate goal though, is to get guys showing off their ‘Jameswinstons’ and raving to friends, family, pets…whatever - about this hot new underwear company! ’ To that end, James intends having a twenty - day internet launch bonanza involving a number of special promotional offers. Over the final ten days the bonanza will culminate in a very special surprise open to all the readers of underwear blogsites the company appears on.’ James concludes; ‘We’ve a few fires to light under people’s arses and we’re especially proud of the 9.5 and 10/10 [UB's score, check out the review] review ratings we’d been achieving. Ultimately, Jameswinston Co. is about quality product and standards - we’ve simply upped our style and excitement ante 100% so people have something to hook onto this time! ’

So that's the deal with what's going on at Jameswinston. Be sure to keep checking UB for the latest info on the Jameswinston launch. Remember, there are going to be some very exciting promotions announced.

Preview of the new Jameswinston line!

The day has finally arrived. I've been waiting for it for a long time. Brian James, co-founder of Jameswinston, has been giving me lots of inside information on the new Jameswinston Co. line for quite a while now, and finally I can share it with you. I am just bursting with excitement to share some of the news from them. I will be continually updating you for the next few weeks up until the final launch. Hopefully my samples will arrive soon and I will be able to share an advanced review with you. The UK based underwear brand has done it again. You may remember that their 'Retro Trunk' range got a perfect score on my review. But somehow they have found a way to improve on perfect. They have decided to step their line up a notch by using lots of fun new colors and styling as well as a fun advertising campaign to get everyone in the world wearing their new line. And trust me, if you haven't tried their skivvies yet you are missing out. More text after photo.

The advertising campaign is fun and funky and includes human modeling of the underwear, as I was hinting at in this post. They have lots of fun new colors and they have added contrast-stitching to the design to add to the overall retro appeal. The new 'Retro' range also includes a new 'ProFIL Pane;' (pronounced Profile). This is a double-layered, specially cut, front panel that accentuates your "crown jewels" without using any tricky string gimmicks or cloth attachments. It truly is "natural" shape enhancement. The wearer simply adjusts to achieve the maximum asset projection and the cut of the panel does the rest. More text after photo.

There are even more new lines being introduced as well. They are: The 'Retro Hipster' and 'NEON'. The retro hipster is just a low-rise version of the 'Retro'. And the 'NEON' is a tight fitting, hipster/brief hybrid in fluorescent colors. It even has metallic looking cloth labels. This is being billed as "club" underwear because it can be worn to the club and it will keep you dry and comfortable. I'm really just loving the way this whole range looks. I can't wait for the whole line to be available. The 'Retro' is going to be sold for £13 and the 'Hipster' and 'NEON' will be sold for £11 a piece. I truly cannot fully express how happy I am to finally be able to make this announcement to you. The quality and style in Jameswinston Co. underwear is truly going to change the way people think about underwear. Not only can you have quality, but you can also have a universal stylishness that appeals to everyone. If you are really loving all the graphics in this post and you want to see more, check out the brand new gallery of preview photos. End of entry, no more text after photo.

New Releases from aussieBum!!

As you may remember I reviewed the aussieBum patriot a while back. My only main complaint was that it was only available in briefs and that it was too.. well patriotic. Well now aussieBum has continued their patriotic line and added more countries (Italy, Netherlands, New Zealand, Scotland, and Taiwan) as well as trunk styles for all countries. But they didn't stop there. They also added some new trunks and briefs that feature their fantastic wonder jock technology, but that aren't too patriotic. I am very happy with this new development. Go check it out, there really are no more excuses for not buying them, you'll love them!

New AE boxerbriefs!

If you are an avid reader of my blog, you may remember that the other day I posted about how all the AE knit basics underwear were on sale and no longer in the regular section. I hypothesized that they either totally discontinued or were in the process of remaking the line (like Abercrombie did). I was correct with the latter hypothesis; they created new knit underwear. They call them knit boxers on the site, but they're really all boxerbriefs. They have a variety of looks: basic and bright colors (with contrast trim!) as well as logo patterned fabrics and striped fabrics. So check out this fun new line. It is definitely a step up from before, I am really liking the look of this new line. I hope to get to try some soon. Before they just had pretty basic colors (grey, black, and white). Now they have fun and funky colors (as well as the basics) as well as a more noticeable logo waistband (the old logoed band was very subtle, this one is a little more in your face). I think that this just goes to show that retailers realize that the general masses (especially the young high school and college students that American Eagle is aimed at) of men want to wear fun underwear. Fun and colorful underwear for men is no longer just a niche market; it's a huge industry! So check them out, they are a great deal at 2 for $20 (or 1 for $12.50)! Poll of the day:
What do you think of American Eagle's new line of underwear? Do you like it better than the old line or not? Will you buy it?

New Jameswinstons coming soon!


*This is an exclusive piece of news available first here*
As you may know from my review or from your own experience, Jameswinston Co. is a relatively new manufacturer on the underwear scene that specializes in making quality and colorful undies. The current line of underwear is excellent (I gave them a 10/10 in my review), I can’t imagine how great the new line will be when it is release soon. In order to make space for the new lines they are having a special sale: buy one pair at 20% off or any three pairs at a massive 50% off until end of January; just use promo code ‘jw003’. It’s a great chance to try out the original if you haven’t already, or to stock up if you already have learned about the excellence of Jameswinstons.
Now about the new line: I have had the privilege to view some photos of prototypes (I wish I could share them with you, but I cannot). And I gotta tell you, Jameswinston has outdone himself again. I mean what can be better than a 10? (I think this new line may have to get some extra credit) There are lots of fun new colors to choose from, including: ‘Mint’, ‘Dark Sand’ and ‘Soda Pink’. Also, one of my favorite new additions is the changes in the styling, it’s the same great fit (for the most part, I am told there are a few minor tweaks to the style for added comfort) but with a lot of great new details: contrast stitching, incredibly unique colors, neon and retro lines, and redesigned logo patches. I will keep you updated on this great product and I will be sure to give you more information and photos when they become available.

I just wanted to be the first to let you know. The official press release goes out tomorrow (UK), at which point I'll figure out how to share a copy with you.

Cricket Syndicate


Christopher Straub spent a while trying to dream up a way to revolutionize the men's underwear industry. Finally he hit on a way to create it with his one-of-a-kind, vintage inspire box cut briefs. The undies are made from recycled T-shirts. He calls his brand Cricket Syndicate. The look and feel of the reclaimed tees combined with the clever eye of Christopher equals stylishly fun results. Plus, the gently worn fabric gives Cricket briefs a "touch me now" softness. And if you notice some line-art designs, that's Christopher's original artwork. Christopher started marketing his brand by selling the briefs out of a paper bag in the back of bars. About a year later he launched his web store, and the rest is history. A history that you can participate in making by purchasing a pair today. Although the styles are not only one per kind, they are limited, therefore the styles on the site are constantly changing.

New Abercrombie Underwear

Old A&F Boxerbriefs


I have been wanting to buy some A&F boxerbriefs for a long time. Well the other day I went to buy some at the store but I couldn't find any. I checked online. None there either. I was devastated because I think that the waistband of the A&F bbs looks really nice. Well I e-mail Abercrombie and their reply was very ambiguous. Finally I checked their site a week ago and guess what! Yes, new boxerbriefs. I'm not sure if I like them as much as the old ones. The waistband is different and doesn't have the stripe. And they also added a moose on the leg. And they removed the fly and ribbing and they are now fly-less and basically seamless. But they still are pretty cool. I might have to go buy some. So you can check that out at Abercrombie.com

Ginch Gonch

Hey, I've mentioned this before but I'm gonna mention it again. I have noticed that there seems to be an increasing popularity in older guys wearing boys briefs. I don't know maybe they want to keep in touch with their childhood by wearing their favorite cartoon or character briefs. Whatever their reasoning the fact still remains, although we may want to do something we may grow. Yes I do mean what i said. You probably have grown since the time when you were wearing cartoon briefs and thus probably won't fit in boys briefs, unless of course you are small or like wearing really tight undies. But don't worry because now there is a company that makes fun undies for men. The company is called Ginch Gonch. Pictured are some fun briefs. They call them their firetruck briefs and put a racy description to them "Every man comes equipped with a hose. Tame the flame with fire trucks". I think it's pretty funny. Visit their site. Caution the flash site has some nudity. So now for all you guys out their who want to get in touch with your childhood through your undies now is your chance. Check out Ginch Gonch, but beware of sticker-shock (27 bucks a brief)!

Poll of the Day:
What do you think of Torrent and I joining together to blog?

Banana Boxers

Yes I know most of you think that boxers are really boring but I think that these boxers may take the boredom out of the boxers for you. These are a fun and funky kind of boxers from Intimo. These boxers are pretty cool. They have a slit in the front instead of a fly and so you get a nice seamless look. Also as you can see they just have a banana peel printed on them so when you stick your dick through the fly it looks like the banana! I think that they're pretty cool. They just are really hilarious. They have a lot of comic relief. Imagine. You'd be laughing every time you take a piss. This particular style with the banana is no longer available on Intimo's site but there are many other one's that are this same style with just a different print.

Today's Poll:
What is your favorite material for your underwear (Guys only)?

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.
