Standing up for what you believe in!

This post is on behalf of a lot of people, and I'm guessing it's a bit different than what anyone expected for my first post. A lot of guys have the same problem as they go through high school or college: They just don't have the confidence to wear what they want to.

So what am I trying to say? Many people are wearing boxers when they don't even want to. They'd rather be wearing something else such as the many varieties of underwear shown on this site. So here are a few tips to help you stand up for what you believe in.

Just wear it! I was nervous this year too as I would wear my briefs (and later in the year, my low-rise briefs) to gym class. The truth is, nobody should be looking at you change anyway! If they do comment, tell them you aren't afraid to wear what's comfortable rather than what "the trend" is. Also, you can wear a slightly longer t-shirt to cover up your undies if you're afraid of others seeing them. Change your pants first, and then switch the shirt. This should prevent anyone from seeing what you wear. A final suggestion (And my least favorite idea) is to wear boxers over the underwear you want to wear. I would only recommend this if you wear something like a thong. Otherwise don't be afraid to show it off!

So, the point of this message? Wear what you want to. Don't be afraid of what others say. You're brave enough to wear what you want to unlike the rest of them. I honestly think that if we all wore what we wanted to, there wouldn't be many people wearing boxers at all.

Question: What specific underwear is your favorite? Give the brand name, the style, etc.

Welcome Snipy!

Hello everyone. We have a new posting member. Yup that's snipy. You can find his e-mail in the sidebar along with mine and Torrent's e-mail addresses. Please give him a warm welcome. We're all looking forward to your first post! :)

DTJocks brief

DT Jocks is a fairly new brand that makes really stylish briefs and boxer briefs. I personally think they are cool and they might actually make me wear some briefs (*hint hint* I wear small if anyone wants to buy me some). I don't know if they'd actually fit me because the pouches on briefs in my waistsize are never big enough for me (not to brag but it's just true). But hey I'd try these. They have a really unique looking front. And they're low-rise and nice and out of sight. Briefs seem to be becoming popular again along with boxer briefs (I'll talk about that another day). I guess guys just really like having support and such. I thought that these were just really unique because they're low-rise and low-cut, in fact here's the quote from their website about them: "The DT Jocks label was established in Australia July 2003. DT Jocks are classically styled men's briefs with a modern twist. DT Jocks low-rise + boxer briefs feature……

100% Cotton.
Functional fly opening.
Box cut…..short through the crotch and wide through the side.
Unique colours, designs, patterns and prints.
Accurate sizing.
Quality, comfort and style."

So they basically have a really cool looking, but functioning fly. A really unique cut in the crotch and low rise so they don't show above your pants. But with briefs like these you'll be eager to get your pants off and show them off. In fact I think these just might work for me. You can find them online at DTJocks.com

Poll of the day:
How supportive do you like your underwear and does the support preference vary depending on what you're doing?

Busy

I am going to busy for the next few weeks so I won't have time to blog. I don't know what Torrent's schedule is but he may not have too much time either. Thanks for being patient.

Public Display of Underwear

I think about underwear way too often. Take for example my driving down the street, and questioning what the guy at the bus stop is wearing underneath his slacks. I'm not interested in the guy, or getting into his pants, I'm just really curious about underwear.

So when I had the opportunity to take public transportation recently, I was staring at crotches and asses looking for "panty" lines. Though that doesn't sound right for men. And if I couldn't see anything, I'd glance at the whole person and try to figure out their style.

I'd doubt it works, but it's rather funny to picture some guys in tight bikinis.

Men's Underwear Brands

Today, I'd like to talk about brand loyalty. I've worn, (off the top of my head), Jockey, Jake & Co., Sonoma, Canyon River Blues, Undergear, Arrow, Hanes, FTL, 2(x)ist, Gap, Old Navy, and Polo Ralph Lauren. 12 brands and only 5 styles (boxers, briefs, boxer briefs, bikinis, and thongs). That's not a great track record with one brand, if you ask me. This is odd considering I buy all my music in the same store, all my Chinese food at a certain restaurant, all my haircuts at a certain barber (with a certain stylist), amongst other things.

I think that one of the main reasons that there isn't a whole lot of innovation in underwear by the standard department store brands is because there probably IS brand loyalty in underwear. Once you've found the right pair, wouldn't you buy it over and over again? I guess I still haven't found what I'm looking for.

Todays Poll:
Where is your loyalty? Do you have a "favorite" pair? Is your favorite pair also your "lucky" pair?

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?

Bodysuits caught my eye.

Torrent here, with the first official post about underwear. Today, I'm reaching way back into Blue's archives and talking about bodysuits.

Blue said,

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.

Well, Blue, thongs are SUPPOSED to give you a pretty nasty wedgie. If the material isn't wedged up in there pretty good, it wouldn't be a good thong!

Here's a (blue) bodysuit that might work out better. I think I'd be more inclined to actually wear this around the house or sleep in than the thong bodysuit as I doubt a bodysuit gets too twisted like a t-shirt can.
-------------------
RESPONSE FROM BLUE:
-------------------
I totally underw..sry understand where you are coming from. But I personally don't like wandering around all day with a wedgie, that's why I wrote that caution. I totally understand that that is the point of thongs but they can still ride up and make an even larger, and uncomfortable, wedgie. Hope that explains it.

Welcome Torrent!

Well Torrent is already ahead of me in announcing our joining of blogs. But as you can guess we are now going to be writing blogs together. We will each be writing our own posts and publising them to our own blog and the other blog. Of course the blogs will still be different so you should check out mine here, as well as Torrents over at underweartalk.blogspot.com. This is gonna be pretty fun. It will be great. So enjoy and be sure to contact us with any comments by e-mail or by a comment. And if there's some undies that you are really digging, just send me an e with the reason(s) why you like them and we'll try to work a post in about them into our busy blogging schedule. That's all for now folks!

Lending my support.

Hey everybody. Call me Torrent. I'm going to be contributing to this blog for Blue, and Blue is going to be contributing to my blog over at, underweartalk.blogspot.com. I certainly hope we can entertain and inform in both places without too much double posting, but time will tell.

I've gone back and read the archives here, and so should you. My first handful of posts will likely comment on Blue's previous posts, but I assure you I'll be posting some good, original stuff too.

Any contributors?

I've been having trouble lately finding the time to blog. I really do want to but I just don't have the time to post as much as I would like to. I was wondering if there are any fellow underwear lovers out there who would like to contribute to this blog so they could also add posts. Thus we could have a collaborative blog that would hopefully get at least one post a day. Let me know by e-mail (linked at bottom of page) if you are interested. If you already have a Blogger account I'll just add you. Or you could also let me know with a comment. Hope to hear from you people soon!

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.
