Material: So old that the tag is unreadable and the brand doesn’t seem to exist anymore, but I’m guessing it’s close to 100% cotton. Aesthetic: A little loose from its age, but I do generally like the look of boxers with relatively fine vertical striping. It’s a nice color combination too, and even when the fabric wasn’t loose with age, it looked as soft and breathable as it felt. Waistband: Also loose with age, but overall a really nice, soft, relatively thin waistband, especially as true boxers’ waistbands tend to go. Pouch: NA, since it’s a true boxer. In terms of your junk, thankfully it’s a loose boxer instead of a tight boxer, (by design this time, not just from age,) so everything hangs pretty freely. Backside: Relatively flat since it’s a true boxer, (and not like a modern one that’s designed to be more form-fitting,) but it’s incredibly comfortable. Legs: Could maybe be a bit longer, but are wide and non-restricting like you would expect from traditional true boxers. Overall: 4/5 – despite being older than my high school degree and stretched loose with age, I do love this pair. At some point, I’ll need to find a good successor pair. Great for: Sleepwear, Loungewear Good for: NA
As a sports company, Under Armour often offers matching looks, and this dressed-down look is no different! The sort of neon yellow-green (tennis balls, anyone?) isn’t a color you see often, but I think it’s really working well here when being the solid color on both a T-shirt and some boxer briefs/trunks.. The T-shirt looks comfortable enough, and the trunks… I don’t know if the front pouch is designed to have a definite shape, but the pair looks quite stretchy enough, doesn’t it? =3 (Also, I think I would enjoy how long the legs are on those trunks.)
I love the look of these Mandate jockstraps! The waistband, particularly from what you can see around the back, looks really comfy. The cage-like design of the pouch is really eye-catching – and of course the color combinations help in that sense, too!
Speaking of color combinations, though – the real reason I want to reblog this (and the next reblog too) is that this really highlight another thing that turns me on – match underwear+other clothes! Socks, shoes, t-shirt, hoodie… I dunno, the thought of specifically coordinating your underwear with the intent of showing off said coordination just seems really appealing to me.
Here, we see NastyPig Mandate socks specifically designed to match. (NP also offers Mandate Briefs if the jockstrap is not your thing.) Considering that socks are often one of the last things to come off, very similar to undies in that sense, it’s a great look to “complete”. And NP certainly seems to like their socks! I also own black+white NP brief and a blue NP jockstrap in my collection as well, with NP socks to go with each. I guess there’s just a sort of a get-down-to-”business” look when you pair undies with matching socks, (i.e. not bothering to completely take everything off,) and NP is certainly made for guys that like to get down to business!
Material: 95% Cotton, 5% Elastane, I believe – I say that because the tag on both pairs of this that I own washed away very quickly, and James Tudor’s website is no longer up. This mix of material is what I can see on general underwear sales sites, though, so I’m fairly confident in it. The pair doesn’t feel quite as cotton-y as you’d expect, because everything is on the thicker side and seems to have a surface treatment of sorts, but it’s all still very soft and comfortable. Aesthetic: I LOOOOOVE the look of this design! The front flap panel with buttons up both sides is incredibly unique (and moderately suggestive) with some very classy trimming around the flap, up the front right below the waistband, and along the edges of the backside. The font on the waistband is also a rather nice touch. Waistband: A little on the tighter and stiffer side, but overall still fairly comfortable. The tightness could very well be from the fact that it’s a small instead of my normal medium. Pouch: The nature of the flap fly, combined with how thick and soft the flap itself is, means there’s little to no shape at all to the front of this pair – it’s nearly a joke to call it a “pouch” like most of the underwear I’ve reviewed have. From the left and middle panels of the image above, you can probably tell that it’s supposed to be fairly flat. That said, it’s still absolutely amazing. It’s padded enough that it doesn’t feel incredibly restrictive, and the innovative flap/fly design honestly holds you in place very comfortably. From the inside, there’s an un-piped opening like in the Jack Adams Core line, leaving your willie to sit comfortably between the flap and the rest of the brief for most of the day. Need to use the restroom or otherwise get access? The buttons are really easy to use, and unlike with vertical flys, the two-sided design lets you pick which way your willie leans.
You really only need to undo just one of the six buttons to use the fly, but two (on the same side) is better – and you can get QUITE a lot of access by undoing all six buttons! At that point, you’re essentially dealing with a crotchless brief that happens to have a flap hanging off of it. All in all, very comfy and very easy to use. Backside: A little on the tight side, but that might be because this is a “small” pair instead of my normal “medium”. Legs: The leg opening here are also a little on the tight side, more so in crotch area than around the back of the leg openings. I’m not sure if moving makes you more conscious of the tightness, or if movement relieves consistent tightness. X-D Overall: 3.5/5 – I’ll give this pair the benefit of the doubt and say that the tightness is just from the sizing. As such, a slight knock on the material is generally overcome by the great look and flap-pouch. Great for: Sexy wear, Sex wear(?) Good for: Everyday wear, Activewear, Loungewear
Dickbriefs. Yes please.
(Seriously, someone tell me where I can get these!)
I had previously opened up my “ask” page for anyone who wanted to know more about a particular review or ask me to wear & review something I haven’t yet, but I just went and also gave you all the option to submit your own pictures and reviews! I have a “Submission” page now open as well as the “Questions & Requests” page. =-)
Also, let me know if you want to model one of my pairs, or you want me to model one of yours! I’m betting we can probably arrange something….
=EDIT= Since I’m on WordPress now instead of Tumblr, use the “contact” option at the top of the page, just beneath the title header!
Oooo a very sexy Modus Vivendi jockstrap! The dark-blue-and-gold color scheme is very classy, and the pouch itself looks very soft and comfy. It looks more cotton-y and shape-y than you’d expect in a traditional jockstrap, which would use a more athletic fabric and just strap you down, but I won’t complain about comfort for my junk! Also, the traditional jockstrap look is still very nicely present here with the rather tall waistband, and the practical-looking, kinda-thin, elastic straps. Would love to have this pair in my collection!

This here appears to be the VU4 Vintage Bikini Brief (which is sadly discontinued) from @n2nbodywear – and an absolutely stunning feature for the pair with the model, pose, angle, and fabric color!
I’ve reviewed the VU3 Vintage Slingshot before, which I had tanked in rating for the execution of the C-ring. Clearly, that wouldn’t be an issue for the Bikini Brief here, and I expect I would rate it very highly (in the 4-5 range) were I to get my hands on one!
I mentioned that I loved the shape & silhouette of the Slingshot’s pouch, and as you can see in the photo above that the same amazing bulge is present here – maybe even more so with how rounded and promoted this model’s family jewels are. N2N always does really, really well with their pouches, which I’ll mention as I review some other of the N2N pairs in my collection.
I do really love the look of the fabric in N2N’s Vintage line, (in addition to the feel of the fabric,) which makes me sad that it’s discontinued. The waistband here is also really attractive.
Looks like I accidentally didn’t schedule any post for the 17th. Sorry about that! Regular posts resume tomorrow.
I also seemed to fall of in my reblog reviews – will try doing some of those today!
Also, something to look forward to: I got a new order of jockstraps in yesterday! Four pairs, but they’re two 2(x)ist two-packs, so we’ll only get two reviews from the order. Still, some Fresh Pairs for the first time in quite a while!
Material: 95% Cotton, 5% Lycra, a very athletic feel… Not the softest pair out there, especially around the base of the legs (where my skin starts disagreeing with the tightness). The fabric just has this stiffer, almost impersonal feel to it on its own – but you don’t notice the fabric much once you put it on (aside from my aforementioned personal problem with the legs). Aesthetic: Camo is fun! Otherwise, the cut is very simple, in a practical, good sense. The legs also provide a nice slimming effect. Again, gives a very athletic feel. Waistband: A little on the tight side, but otherwise a fairly standard waistband. Pouch: Like with the CX05 Thong, Cocksox does great with the pouch. It’s kinda similar to AC’s Almost Naked line, or Ergowear’s Max line – very nice shape that lets you hand forward, with a seam coming up very comfortably under your junk to help lift and promote without being too high or too low. Backside: Not much to say about this one! Considering the longer legs beneath it, I guess the upper backside errs a little on the side of flattening you, staying a bit on the tighter side. The tag is simply printed on the inside of the backside, so no annoying physical tag to worry about! Legs: Oooohhhh I LOVE how long the legs are on this pair! And, overall, I’d say the legs are pretty comfy. As mentioned above, they feel a little tighter the lower on the leg you get, so near the leg openings they start annoying my skin occasionally, but not enough for me to really count this as too much of a knock against them. The leg openings themselves are plenty comfortable. Overall: 4/5 – for everything I criticised about the fabric and the leg-tightness, I honestly really like this pair. I’m always a fan of longer legs, and the pouch here is just great. If you’re looking to get this pair, they’re no longer listed as CX93CPR, but instead CSX93, with the camo print no longer an option – and, on top of that, they seem to have disappeared from the site between by initially writing this review and the time it got published. Bother. Great for: Activewear Good for: Everyday wear, Loungewear, Sleepwear
