Andrew Christian – Almost Naked Freedom Jock w/ Show-It – Lime – Small

101

Material: 95% Cotton, 5% Spandex, and unsurprisingly feels very soft and cotton-y while also having a nice bit of stretch – but more on that later. Very lightweight and breathable.
Aesthetic: Lime green main fabric with a deep purple hem and a rainbow waistband can only be summed up by saying “Candy Pop!”. Bright with just the right of amount of intentional jarring, this pair absolutely demands to be looked at. And once you do look, you notice the lack of straps or anything on the back at all, which can absolutely catch you off-guard if you’re not used to seeing sling underwear (a.k.a. strapless jocks, “socks”, or however you want to categorize them).
Waistband: Softer and stretchier than some other waistbands, but otherwise pretty typical. Two-part tag in the back; I don’t recall exactly what it felt like when new, but by now it’s all quite soft (and the hanging part of the tag on my pair is uniformly frayed now).
Pouch: This pair is listed as both “Almost Naked” and “Show-It”, which I generally feel like are two non-compatible styles of AC’s design inventory, as the Show-It necessitates an inner C-ring that conflicts with the free-movement, feels-line-wearing-nothing idea behind Almost Naked, but here I can at least see when they’re both listed. Ahead of the inner C-ring, the pouch itself is fairly large and loose, which does fit that Almost Naked ideology. Still, the Show-It tech limits movement and definitely feels like it’s there, so it’s definitely not Almost Naked. The other big issue that I personally have with this pair is a common worry with slings that, for me, has been exacerbated by sizing, and that’s under-scrotum cut-in. In order for slings to stay on during the day, they usually have to have some level of grip on your anatomy, and sometimes that grip can be too strong, particularly under your junk, which is obviously undesired. You can see in the second picture above that the purple lower hem has come way up high between my thighs, and that’s not even where the underside of the internal C-ring is (see below). My balls have been pulled up incredibly far, giving that cut-in feeling below, meaning I can’t wear this pair for very long at all, and I think part of the reason that the bottom hem of this pair has come up so high is that the pair has stretched horizontally a fair amount to fit around my hips – if I had a larger size, the vertical compression in response to the horizontal stretch wouldn’t be nearly as much, and this pair would probably be a lot more comfortable. That’s why I’m selling this pair, so hopefully someone slimmer than me can really make this pair shine.

Backside/Legs: NA
Overall: 2.5/5 – I mostly rate this on the lower side simply for poor fit, which I don’t normally do, but I’m also not as much a fan of AC’s Show-It design either. It does have its place, though! (Which I may feature in a future review.) In the meantime, I do think this pair is easily a 4/5 or 4.5/5 on looks alone, so that’s on the fun site.

Excavating The Bin

I moved about three years ago, and when doing so, about half of my underwear collection was transported in a big plastic tub that has lived in my closet with very little interaction since. Well, with my 100th review coming up and wanting to expand my Sales offerings, I decided to really dig in to my underwear past!

Featured center foreground in the pic above are the rainbow of Mossimo boxer briefs that I got at Target years ago as the very beginnings of my underwear collection. Dead center are some of the pairs that I think border on lingerie, some from Envy, some from Gregg Homme, and the orange one from (I believe) CheapUndies of all places! And of course, several piles of different styles all around, most quite colorful. =-)

The still-bagged set of underwear mid-top left are other pairs I like and was just too lazy to pull out for this pic. X-D The two bags upper-right, though, are underwear that I had previously (before moving) set aside as pairs I could potentially sell off, so expect those to be added to my Sales page over the next month or so!

Mckillop – Max Bulge Modal Long John – Red – Medium

088

Material: 94% Modal, 6% Spandex, which is incredibly soft and stretchy! Interestingly, it feels simultaneously breathable and fairly solid.
Aesthetic: I would call these long johns incredibly sleek! The fabric itself doesn’t give a reflective, synthetic look at all, but the single color for the entire pair on top of how form-fitting it is and how it doesn’t go all the way down to the ankle all together gives the look of fluidity and suaveness (and not leaving much to the imagination). The black waistband with the brand splayed across the front then gives just enough visual contrast to add a strong-looking edge to the pair.
Waistband: Fairly typical for a waistband; has a nice height to it and great elasticity. Sit low in general, and apparently particularly low on me! That crack in back isn’t supposed to be showing; I guess I’m just bigger than what was intended for this pair.
Pouch: It’s called “Max Bulge” for a reason! The pouch here is highly contoured, and is designed with the idea that you’ll be wearing a C-ring of some sort to help your junk come forward into the pouch. (If you order it from a professional provider, it’ll likely come with one of Mckillop’s elastic C-ring bands as well for this purpose.) And even without wearing a C-ring yourself, it’s still an incredibly comfy pouch that brings your forward and up a nice amount. I’ve noticed in the past that long johns have a bad track record of not doing a good job of supporting your junk; either the pouch isn’t designed that well to begin with, or it’s designed well but the support quickly is pulled away with wear (i.e. the bottom of the pouch drops down a bit as your legs move around). This pair has neither of those problems, so I really think that’s an accomplishment!
Backside: Nothing particularly special back here; has some shape to it, at least.
Legs: Really comfy in my opinion! If you’ve got big legs like me, the fabric will stretch a fair amount and may leave you with pressure lines on your legs at the end of the day, but it’s not something you notice a ton while wearing them. Of course, I love the length.
Other: If you look closely, you’ll see that the stitching of this pair strongly outlines the shape of a normal brief – to the point that it feels somewhat like wearing a brief with legs more than wearing a long john. This is particularly true because this mid-pair stitching is a bit less forgiving stretch-wise than the rest of the pair is! It’s the only part of the pair that feels a bit tight to me. In addition to how low the waistband sits on me, this reinforces the importance of getting the correct size for you when buying these!
Overall: 4.5/5 – the only reason these aren’t getting a 5 is because of how tight that brief-ish stitching is compared to the rest of the pair. If I was taking sizing issue into account, it would come down to a 4/5 or 3.5/5 too, but that’s not really a knock against the pair itself. For what it’s worth, while I’m selling this pair, I’m planning on buying another at the Large size in hopes of getting that better fit!
Great for: Loungewear, Sexy wear
Good for: Everyday wear, Sleepwear, Activewear

Andrew Christian – Tighty Whitey Punked V-Clipse Boxer – Orange – Medium

087

Material: 95% Cotton, 5% Spandex, and about what you would expect – very soft, nicely stretchy, lightweight in not incredibly breathable. Honestly pretty similar to the ///Crew Brief/// from the other day, as well as many other more traditionally-made AC underwear.
Aesthetic: The entire “Tighty Whitey Punked” line is all about high contrast colors while having the general profile of traditional tighty whities. The latter point works much better for Punked Briefs – not as much for a Boxer like this, though! And that’s even before you look around back to see the “V-Clipse” aspect of it. (Eclipse, “mooning”, get it?) The orange with cyan piping here almost gives this particular pair of pop-y ’80s vibe, which I think is really fun.
Waistband: Pretty typical as waistbands go, though maybe a tad softer and stretchier than some others.
Pouch: While I love the look of the fly on here, it’s actually completely fake, so that’s not quite so fun. Inside the pouch, though, is AC’s “Show-It” tech with a built-in C-ring, which ostensibly help get your junk up and forward, away from your legs. In practice, this pair can accomplish that well, but this issue here is that the C-ring is so high in the pair, you really need to hike your balls up to get it inside the ring and into the front pouch, which is a tad uncomfortable. The effect is impressive, though! And even if you don’t have the lower edge of the C-ring pull up tightly under your junk, it’s easy enough to just let your willie sit in the front pouch – though wearing the pair this way somewhat defeats the point of the Show-It design.

Backside: I honestly really love the unique shape of the opening back here! This needs to be done more often, as it frames your cheeks really well.
Legs: Barely any length on these, making the pair basically a square cut. While the leg openings are comfortable enough in construction, they’re a little tight on me.
Overall: 3/5 – I would rate these much higher if the built-in C-ring wasn’t so high, as that makes the pair hard for me to wear, especially compared against some of my other AC Show-It pairs. Still, it’s an incredible look, and if your personal anatomy is a bit different than mine, these could work really well!

Jack Adams – Crew Brief – Lime – Medium

086

Material: 92% Cotton, 8% Polyester, and so soft and lightweight!
Aesthetic: Loud but not fully in-your-face, it’s just a very fun pop of lime green color with the strong, obvious lines provided by the high-contrast black piping. The doulbe-line “railroad tracks” piping at the top corners of the fly on any Crew pairs are a really intriguing design choice that gives an athletic look to the pair, and the choice to make the right tracks white to contrast the rest of the piping just adds to the eye-catching nature of the design. The big, bold Jack Adams logo panel front-and-center on the waistband further adds to the confident, statement-making effect of the pair.
Waistband: Nice and stretchy with some good height to it!
Pouch: This is a fun one! There’s some nice but not overt contouring on both panels of the pouch/fly, such that you’re always going to get a fairly nice (but never really intensely defined) shape whether you like wearing your willie up or down. The Crew brief sports a U-fly design, which is generally very fun, though on this pair both openings are fairly far down your crotch, which makes it a tiny bit more work to whip your willie out if it’s naturally behind the inner panel to begin with. You might also think that the contouring would make it hard to pull your boy out for whatever reason, but the opening is not hemmed, letting the fabric stretch as much as it likes, and the fabric goes so far down that there’s plenty of fabric there, meaning it’s quite easy to manipulate honestly. (You can see how much kinda folded up there in the picture below; *warning* for shaft.) This also means that you don’t have to hold the fly open at all while you’re using it, which is a huge plus. The only real downside here is that you can’t let your willie sit in between the inner and outer openings of the fly, because once you’re past the inner opening, there’s very little fabric up front to hold you back any more.

Backside: Clearly not a full-coverage pair, almost closer to a bikini than a regular brief! Of course, I have a fairly big backside myself, so it might work better for more toned guys. Plain-colored backsides can be unflattering, especially for full-coverage pairs, but the green-vs-black of this pair is still a nice contrast, and with the leg openings coming up over the cheeks themselves, you get more visual contrast than just a full expanse of lime. There is a finicky tag hanging down inside, and it’s probably the worst part of the pair, but that’s not saying much and can be dealt with easily enough if you wanted to do so.
Legs: A little on the tight side, especially going from the hips down front toward the crotch, but overall still fairly comfy (and probably just a sizing issue, as the pair overall is kinda tight anyway).
Overall: 4.5/5 – the only reason I’m not going a full 5 is because this pair, for me, is a bit small. I think I may try buying this again in a bigger size, because it’s pretty great!

Seven7 – Boxer Briefs – multiple colors – Medium//Large

085

Material: 93% Cotton, 7% Elastane, overall has a somewhat “flat” feel to it but it still soft and stretchy enough to be perfectly comfortable for everyday wear. Not super breathable, but that doesn’t feel like a big knock against it – this definitely feels like a “office underwear” situation where you wouldn’t pick this pair because you weren’t going to be in a situation where breathability would be an issue anyway.
Aesthetic: Generally very simple; it of course depends on exactly which pair you pick as some have various prints, but even those have a color palette that’s more muted and reserved to begin with – again, a very sort of “office underwear” vibe to them.
Waistband: Fairly typical as waistbands go! Not quite as tall as some others, which I think might be trying to play into that “low profile” fashion trend, but it’s a small effect here.
Pouch: Basically none. X-D There’s just enough extra fabric on the two panels that make up the front so that it doesn’t feel constraining, but there’s absolutely no effort made to provide the pair a good shape to hold your junk. It’s fine for me since I like wearing my willie pointing up, but I can somewhat imagine that this isn’t a great pair for guys who like to point downward, though.
Backside: Surprisingly unlike the relatively flat front, this pair actually shows off a really nice curve for your backside! The plaid on this particular pair also gives some visual interest, so the flat-color pairs might be a bit less to look at, but would still come up under your cheeks quite nicely. There’s a print-on tag at the top of the inside of the back panel, and it’s impossible to notice while wearing – it almost looks like precision-dyed fabric as opposed to something that was printed on!
Legs: Fairly comfy! I’d personally like them to be a tad bit longer, but no real complaints.

Other: I’ve chosen to focus on the plaid pair with the pictures here, which is a Large, but the other four I have are a tan speckled pattern (Medium), light tan plain (Medium), slate (Large), and violet (Medium).
Overall: 3/5 – I went back and forth between 3 or something higher for this pair, because there’s really nothing wrong with it aside from a marginally flat pouch, and since it’s not really meant as a show-off-y pair (while still having a great backside) I didn’t want to count that against the pair too much. That said, it’s a very plain pair, so I ultimately settled on the 3 because I can’t see it being a pair people will every look forward to wearing at all. Still, it’s a great pair for everyday office wear and the like, so definitely worth having in your collection for those days you wake up feeling a little blah and just want something simple to pull on and get the day started. X-D Seven7 is a jeans brand before an underwear brand, so the practicality-minded nature of the pairs makes total sense in that context.

Sales are live!

After a lot of planning and not a lot of opportunities to work on it, I now have a basic sales gallery for all the undies I’m selling! Everything is set save for finishing my “Quick Reviews” page, which gives quick little statements for everything I haven’t done a full review of yet. Should be finished at the end of the day, and I’ll have plenty more pairs to add over the next week or two, too!

So do you want some of my underwear? Go check it all out!

New AussieBum order & schedule update

I took advantage of AussieBum’s Boxing Day sale, and the order came in on Wednesday! Here’s a preview of what I got:

I think I’m going to review all five of these AussieBum pairs, (two are already complete and in my queue,) and even though I haven’t hit everything shown/mentioned in the previous “new order” post, I think I may take a short break to reorganize everything on the back end. My underwear shelves in my room are an absolute disorganized mess, and I haven’t decided yet which pairs I want to start selling or how my sales page is going to be set up. I’ll also probably try to update my index posts and tag system here on the blog too.

I’ll still do reblog reviews on my normal Tues/Thur/Sat schedule, though! So no worries, you’ll still get me talking about underwear and showing off attractive pictures. =-)

New posts hopefully soon

After well over a year, I think I might have the time and bandwidth to start making reviews again! I’m hoping I can do a higher proportion of my own reviews versus the random pics I share, but we’ll see what works.

I don’t have a full-time job at the moment, which helps with having time. X-D Also, I may actually get a move on the idea I’ve previously floated in selling pairs that I don’t want anymore, whether because I got the wrong size or don’t like the look or are just bored with. So if you want anything you’ve seen here – or others – you might have a chance soon!

Selling off pairs?

Idea that’s been floating around in the back of my mind for a while…

With as much underwear as I buy, I’m going to get pairs that don’t fit me well, that I just don’t like for whatever reason, or pairs that sit unworn for extended periods of time. None of these are objectively “bad” pairs of underwear, (though there might be some I really do recommend against, but that should be rare,) so in theory other people might enjoy them even if I don’t.

Would people be interested in maybe buying some of my old pairs? They’ll always been clean and, unless they’re an older pair that’s simply fallen out of rotation, will be essentially unworn. I’d probably price them slightly under whatever I paid for them.

Thoughts/interest?
