Running out of Lines

Today we got a great question from one of our readers asking for some advice, here's a bit of what he wrote:
I've started jogging quite a bit lately and bought a few pairs of tights/spandex shorts and I've come to a realisation [sic] that most of these shorts or pants aren't really constructed to be worn without undergarments. But here's the thing, what do you really wear under something like that ? The only thing I seem to come up with is a thong... Should I be wearing a different size and go commando for better performance from what I'm wearing?...
Since I'm a runner myself I'll try to answer this one. Okay, so the main question here is what do you wear under these shorts. Let me start off by saying when I run I prefer a good running short like this one from aussieBum. One with a short length and plenty of leg movement. But if you prefer a compression type running short, you have several options in what to wear underneath, it all depends on what you want to show.

My first recommendation would be a slim jockstrap, I never go running without one on. Its best to go with one that has thin butt straps (I don't know if there is a technical name) and a slim waist band, try a swimmers jock, I find that they work great. I few weeks ago I reviewed the jock that I most often run in, and I think you'll find that the N2N will leave very few lines. Below are a few others that would work too:

  • The Sheer Pocket Sling from N2N Bodywear, has no backstraps and is made of a sheer fabric so your junk will be able to breath. This one I found off their website N2NBodywear.com and has a great price of only $12.00 (US)
  • WildmanT has designed the perfect Micro Jock, I haven't had a chance to try this one yet, but the design looks great and it looks to be perfect for wearing under tight clothing. This jock comes in great colors and defiantly won't show under your shorts. I found this one off of Wildmant.com this one is available in two styles, the original for $16.00 (US) and the laced for $18.00.
  • My next style would be a g-string, a thong is going to cause some irritation when running. The great thing about a g-string is there will be no lines at all, and it will look as if you aren't wearing anything underneath.
  • I guess you will notice I choose N2N stuff a lot, so once again, I would try the BT String from well N2Nbodywear.com. This suit has strings instead of fabric, as true G-Strings do, and the front pouch is made out of a great stretch fabric. This one I guarantee will not show any lines, and I'm willing to bet you'll even forget you're wearing anything underneath your shorts. I found this great pair at N2Nbodywear.com and they sell for a cool price of $13.00 (US)
  • The Micro Sport Pouch, my final style of chose comes from Koalaswim.com, this is designed for the athletic person, and may be exactly what you are looking for. This piece is a small pouch that wrap around the dick and balls, to provide support and to conceal what you're packing below. I found this one at Koalaswim.com and it sells for $21.00 (US). This suit is also great for tanning.
So I hope that one of these will help you, and good luck in running, and please let me know if any of these help.

It's Cocktail Hour at Cocksox

This month celebrates Cocksox's one year anniversary. In March 2006, Cocksox started by selling their wear on eBay. But after eBay decided that Cocksox was just too much for eBay to handle they opened their own store. So on July 10, 2006 the guys at Cocksox launched their own website. And the rest is history. In honor of that day the guys at Cocksox are having a special cocktail hour where you can get 10% off all purchases at their online store. To get this deal just enter "cocktail" at checkout. Discount is only good through the 15th.

Also, Cocksox just launched a brand new swimsuit style. These are special swim briefs in fluorescent colors with mesh side panels. They bring something new to the word sexy. They come in two colors, slippery pickle pink and hot lime shooter (shown). And as always, these swim briefs include the Cocksox trademark enhancing system. So check those out as well. And note that the cocktail good IS good on these new suits as well.

Say it Right

Okay, guys, so here's the problem, we here at UB wanna hear from you, we love our readers, and we wanna know what is on your minds, not just what is on ours. So if you've got something to say, say it, it can be anything at all, we just wanna hear from you. We know that you read what we have to say, but we just don't know what you think of what we have to say. So use that little button at the bottom of every post, and leave us one. That would be great! Lata, Chandler.

The idea behind the flapkat...

flapkat was an idea that literally came out of thin air.

Richard, creator and designer of flapkat underwear, was working at 40,000 feet for an airline traveling all over the world. He found that amongst all the other comforts essential to crew, underwear was an important one. “Cabin crew work very long hours at altitude, and the job can at times be very physical, and you need to feel comfortable”

flapkat came from Richards worldwide search for suitable underwear, “I found that only the boring styles and basic brands were comfortable, and I wanted to be comfortable and look good at the same time!”

Here was a challenge. Comfortable, and stylish.

In his spare room, Richard took things into his own hands, creating his own designs with this ‘brief’ in mind. Out of this came flapkat. “What started as a bit of fun, turned into a more of a reality for me.” Richard realized that a lot of major underwear brands that he was familiar with were international, “It was important for me to ensure that this underwear had a British angle. I am British, and I love Britain, and I wanted to show all that was great about modern Britain in the brand”. Richard’s designs are fun, sexy and unmistakably British in their appearance. The initial designs are in Red, White and Blue. They have an ergonomically designed ‘bi’ fly pouch, made of high quality cotton/lycra, and look and feel great! They come in a brief style, and a boxer brief.

You can look forward to being part of this exciting new brand later in the year.

“I can’t wait until they are available for everyone to see how great they are, what started as a small idea in my spare room has now become something I am proud of.”

So there you have it, that's how flapkat underwear was born.

Beat the summer heat at WildmanT

What with summer here it is getting pretty hot in some parts of the world. But don't worry, WildmanT has all the gear to help you stay cool. They have lots of fun swimwear to help you stay cool at the beach. And their new micro jock will help you stay cool while working or playing. The minimal coverage is just enough to give you support, but not enough to make you hot and sticky. So if it's getting hot where you live, get some cool at WildmanT.

Swimwear Answers

Hey guys, its Chandler here. A few months ago UB started the Underwear Answers section, so now we've decided to add Swimwear Answers. It is the same basic idea as Underwear Answers, but with swimwear. I guess you all may have noticed from my last posts that I'm a pretty active guy, so if you have any questions about swimwear just hit me up with an email, or if you need some advice, or wanna know about a brand, or if there is a swimsuit you want reviewed, just let me know and I'll do my best to try them out and tell you what I think. So the e-mail is JockboyChandler@gmail.com, you can just think of me as your swimwear guru.

IQONIQ now available

A while back I told you guys about an upcoming line of underwear from the Netherlands called IQONIQ. The underwear is now available! They have 8 different styles available. The underwear actually reminds me a bit of some things from Calvin Klein with the one color body and brightly colored waistband. So I encourage you to head over to IQONIQ and check out their new products. And if you are a Myspace person, be sure to check out their Myspace profile. Hopefully I will have a chance to try these soon and let you know what I think.
