The mesh of this pouch makes me think that this is the MAX ULTRA Thong, since I don’t think anything else Ergowear carries features a mesh like this. The image currently on their site looks like a higher ratio of fabric-to-holes, but it still fits pretty well!

Most of the Ergowear pairs I have are from the Feel line, but I do already have some MAX thongs, and you can see on those or see right here that the MAX pouch has a much stricter and more intentional shape to it. While the idea is completely different than the loose pouch with under-support of the Feel line, it is also executed basically flawlessly – Ergowear absolutely lives up to its ergonomic name with their pouches!

On this particular pair above, of course the major feature is the mesh itself. Just from the image here, it almost looks like a rubbery, plasticy kind of fabric, but not one that would be incredibly uncomfortable. For the record, the fabric is listed as 85% Nylon, 15% Lycra, the latter of which definitely has not been mentioned much on this blog! It’s definitely synthetic, but I’m very interested as to how this would feel. =-)

This pic is a great example of what Sukrew (a.k.a. the Sexual Unity Krew) is known for – incredible pouches that make you look absolutely hung! The red pouch here has such a telltale shape to it, complete with what appears to be a bit of pleating on the sides so as to help sculpt the shape Sukrew is going for. Solid red is always a bold, powerful, and attention-grabbing choice; the Sukrew logo is also quite stylish. Excellent brief here! (Or maybe one of their thongs? I can’t tell from this view; not that I’m complaining here.)

I’ll be reviewing two Sukrew pairs of my own in the coming month, so keep and eye out for those! I actually bought an order of four Sukrew pairs not long before I had gone inactive last time, so there are definitely part of the collection now and very fun (even if the pandemic has meant I haven’t had the chance to show them off to anyone yet…)

This Joe Snyder thong is a bit obscured by the fact that the rest of this guy’s suit is still on, pants open just enough to show off the pair, but you can still see everything that makes Joe Snyder a fun, sexy brand: skimpy pair with a pouch that leaves little to the imagination!

Also, I really like the thought of someone opening their pants just enough to show off a nice, bulgy thong…

GoodDevil – GD4500 Net G-String – Blue – M

065

Material: 85.15% Polyamide, 16.85% Spandex, though I don’t know which of the straps, panel, or mesh this mix is describing exactly. It could be describing all three parts of the pair, though, since everything seems to have the same kind of stretch, even if the weave might make those three components feel a bit different. It’s also a very nice mesh! Might get a little much if you get hot & sweaty, though – it definitely feels synthetic at that point.
Aesthetic: It’s quite the looker! The straps are about as thin as they can be, and of course the mesh is nicely see-through! I also really enjoy how the top of the pouch is a solid panel instead of being mesh – it gives the pair some much-needed some visual variety. (I have some other all-mesh underwear, and it usually looks kinda lazy.)
Waistband: Just an elastic strap with fabric over it! Not much to speak of – and without a ton of fabric there, it doesn’t stay in place incredibly well, but that’s assuming you’re moving a lot or otherwise doing stuff that would mess with it. Since it’s just straps, you can of course wear it as high or as low as you want. I actually think, in the front view above, I should have worn the waistband a bit higher (up to the waist) or lower (around the hips) because it looks a bit awkward in the middle ground like I have it… Though the angles made on the pair itself still look fairly good.
Pouch: Nicely shaped and very stretchy! It understandably is great for showing off. The pictures above don’t do a great job of showcasing the pouch, particularly the side view, but trust me it’s good. The tag is also on the inside of that upper panel and long enough that it can be seen through the mesh if you look for it. With how stretchy and thin the mesh is, it doesn’t provide a great amount of support, per se, but it’s still fun to wear.
String: Soft and stretchy, and it fits really well through the back – not too tight/cut-in-y or too loose/floppy. Even if the tightness/length wasn’t great, it’s small enough that it’s not much to notice threading through.
Other: I think this is my first Good Devil review. Pics by @davin-w ! He moved out of the area and thought I would appreciate some of his underwear, since stuff like this typically isn’t what people are looking for at Goodwill and such. X-D
Overall: 4/5 – a little higher than the 3.5/5 I gave the Jack Adams Flyer Thong, but I’m evaluating this pair as something that’s entirely intended for showing off in the bedroom or at an underwear party, while I evaluated the Flyer more on everyday and active use – I certainly think I would rate the Flyer’s fabric as more comfortable, and it’s got better pouch support. (And to be fair, the slightly-cutting strap was a problem) But if you like your G-strings for showing off, this is the pair you want!

Bruno. Buddy. I know it’s been a while. We need to chat. X’-D

I dunno who dreamed up this combination Crop Top Thong, but it’s the most outlandish item in Bruno’s new LOVEPRIDE collection. Most outlandish, and yet in a demented way, also the most genius? I mean, it does a fairly seamless job of incorporating a bunch of gay standards: the crop top, the thong (bodythong no less), and mesh!

As I’ve mentioned with previous Bruno items, I do reeeaaally like outfits that are smooth across the sides of the hips – either from having fabric all the way up or from not having fabric at all! Of course, Bruno often chooses the latter, and I’m not complaining! The shape of this piece, crazy as it is, really does work well in my opinion.

The Y-shaped strap(?) that connect the pouch to the crop top on the front are repeated on the back. Also not seen in the view above are the fact that there are rainbow stripes down the sides of the arms – so I’ve included another view below. You can clearly see how the back strap comes off the back and goes down between the cheeks to make the thong part of the thong, plus you can really see a great shape on the pouch. Even in the front view above, the pouch looks like it has a great, rounded shape to it – and very promoting!

N2N Bodywear – SL1 Slinky Thong – Royal Blue – M

056

image

Material: 94% Acetate, 6% Spandex, described as “super stretchy ribbed fabric” that almost borders on mesh. I say it borders on being mesh both because of that ribbed texture and because you can almost see through the pair, especially when you stretch it. I’ve said before that mesh can be hit-or-miss if it lets your skin get “bumpy” through the mesh, in which case it gets uncomfortable having those skinbumps rub against anything else, e.g. your pants. Having a fabric that’s essentially super-tight-knit mesh here avoids that problem, and I love its texturing and breathability (also something that makes it mesh-like). It’s a lot thicker than basic net-style mesh, though, which adds a level of softness that I’ve never gotten on net-style mesh before. (I contrast net-style mesh with the “mesh” you get when you basically poke regularly-spaced holes in otherwise normal fabric, like some of the lightweight low-cut singlets I own.)
Aesthetic: Slinky and dark blue! Solid color usually works well for thongs, and no exception here. Even if you can’t really see through the mesh when it’s in-wear, you can see that it’s a fun texture, so that’s kinda fun too.
Waistband: Nothing more than a fold-over hemmed section of the same mesh material that makes the rest of the pair. It makes the “waistband” feel like it’s almost not there, and it’s a great mix between stretchy and tight.
Pouch: I’ve mentioned once or twice before that @N2Nbodywear often has great pouches, and this thong has one of them! It comes out pretty well in the pictures above, and it’s really comfy from the inside too. It’s tight- and shaped-enough to provide excellent support, while the overall shape and material still allows for fairly free movement of the package as a whole, which is good if you’re moving around a lot (and for groping!)
Backside/String: The one little drawback for this pair is that the texture and tightness of the fabric make it feel like it cuts in ever so slightly above your tailbone… You can see in the picture that it dives down between my cheeks somewhat quickly. That aside, though, it’s still a very nice backside! The tag is more solid than other tags I’ve encountered but not noticeable (maybe a side effect of the ribbed tightness over the tailbone?)
Overall: 4/5
Great for: Sexy wear
Good for: Activewear, Everyday wear(?), Sex wear(?)

briefsboy25:

I can in theory see the name on the label in front here, but it’s just a bit too small and blurry for me to work out…

Sad that I can’t make out the brand because this looks like a fun pair! Green camo is always an exciting aesthetic, and this thong does it well. The pouch on this pair has a great shape to it, even if it’s more for showing off than for ergonomic comfort. X-D I say that because it’s completely rounded – and it also looks like it’s coming a little off the skin on the sides of the pouch. (Though maybe this guy is just packing that much!)

In fact, I think the sizing here is what’s going. Not only does the pouch look like it’s coming off the skin a little bit, but you can see that the hip straps are just slightly folding over themselves – a sign that things are tight over there as well. This guy should’ve bought a bigger pair! X-D (Still looks amazing though.)

Pikante – Battle Submarine Thong – Black – M

048

Material: 88% Nylon, 12% Spandex, overall fairly comfy! Not super-soft or super-smooth, but definitely nicely functional.
Aesthetic: Well, it’s Pikante… Having sailor faces all over the pouch is certainly a fun take! X-D The small horizontal mesh panel also adds to Pikante’s risque M.O.
Waistband: The waistband itself it pretty good, material-wise, though this thong suffers from a symptom I’ve seen among many more “stylish” underwear pairs in that the stitching that connects the waistband to the rest of the pair causes that lowest sliver of the waistband to be much less elastic than the rest of the waistband overall. This makes it a bit of a pain to pull on or off, with the one thin but strong section of the pair that is much less forgiving than the material around it. Always makes you worry about tearing something important. And although it’s not shown in the pictures above, that lowest edge of the waistband has a tendency to roll up over the rest of the waistband above each hip.
Pouch: Very nice shape, especially the lower part of the pouch! That is, it forms a really nice little pocket for your balls; doesn’t “lift” them a lot, but keeps them very well separate from your legs. The pouch overall also wiggles nicely. The pouch fabric also has lines of “breathing holes” throughout it, so that in theory makes the pair very comfy to wear long-term. And of course, the peekaboo mesh panel across the top is a sexy little touch; conveniently, you don’t really notice the difference in fabric at all while wearing the thong. The only downside is that the pouch isn’t incredibly wide against your body, and might but in a little bit with long-term wear; that latter fact might be a function of the theme I’ve noticed with Pikante often being under-sized.
Backside/String: This thong has one of the widest “straps” I’ve ever seen! You might think that means it’s uncomfortable between the cheeks, but the fabric is thin and comfy enough that it simply folds up, and you don’t really notice it! The tag in back is moderately large and moderately stiff, but thankfully is attached in a place and way that you don’t really notice it either (i.e. the edges aren’t annoying at all.)
Other: This is the first Pikante pair I’ve ever bought where the sizing is moderately correct versus what I expect. X-D I may get to reviewing some of old purchase attempts, but they’ve almost always run too small for me, as alluded to earlier.
Overall: 2/5 – I hesitate to call this a “bad” pair, so I feel a bit bad about giving it just a 2, but the waistband issue is just a bit much for me to overlook. Were it not for that, this could be a 3.5/5. Still a very fun pair, and if you like thongs and can get the sizing correct, definitely worth wearing!
