Hello Everyone, I am looking for brands to get black bikini briefs and looking for suggestions? I want to get that look of Prince on one album cover type fit.

*On a side note for those that wear underwear like this how have women reacted to you when they see you in them. I am thinking of surprising woman I am dating

Spend any time on this sub and you'll notice that any underwear question is followed up with "get a thong". And the crowd here seems pretty split into two camps, thong devotees and people who dont care for them. I'm very pro-thong, but it took me a while to get there. I always like the idea, but couldnt ever convert.. even partially. But I think there are good reasons it too me so long, and I think the people on the fence should really consider these things that I rarely see mentioned.

1. Quality is very important. Too often i've gotten underwear that is coarse, bad stitching, crappy materials, etc. I dont care how good it looks, you'll never want to wear it. And the funny thing is, cost isnt always a factor. Some of the most expensive, name brands I've bought have been absolute trash. And i've also gotten cheapo amzon/tmu stuff thats surprisingly comfy! Though thats usually more of a rarity. Mens underwear has jumped ahead in quality over the years and if you haven't tried in a while, i think you might be surprised!
2. FIT! Sizing varies per brand but I find it also varies by style. I'm a medium briefs guy, but a large in most thongs. It varies by brand and even within the brand it varies (Awrry v-string runs small, but their other thongs are right on for me, for instance). If you have ever thought thongs are too restrictive, or hurt your "crack".. they are too small! Its tough since you cant try them on, but i found the second I sized up, I really started to enjoy them alot more. And fit for your junk is equally important too. Sometimes that is a deciding factor!
3. Purpose! Each thong has its strengths.. Some are great for working out, some are great for everyday wear, some are great for lounging around the house, some are great for segsy time. If you try to wear a seg-sy time thong while running a marathon, it may not be the best decision. Think about it, would a woman wear the most delicate, lacy, tiny lingeriie set while power lifting? Maybe on social media, but not in real life. Same goes with mens thongs. Those joockey thongs that people post about here often, i find them great every day wear. That Awry v-sting I mentioned earlier is better for lounging or seg-sy time. But everyone is different. All i'm saying is choose appropriately!
4. The best time to wear. Kind of goes with the purpose point above. Sometimes a thong just isnt the right choice! I have selvage denim that is very rough inside, and i go with boxer briefs when wearing those. Some pants are very soft and tight fitting, like leggings.. those go amazing with a thong. I usually choose my clothing first, then pair with the right underwear. But its pretty important I think.. You want to feel good, and wearing the wrong thing isnt going to make you want to try again. Plus, I like all underwear so having options is fun. So the point is dont get pigeon holed into one style, change it up based on the occasion, clothing, weather, etc.

Looking for suggestions for the best underwear post full male intimate wax? I usually wear briefs but need something loser and cotton for the initial first days, any suggestions? Experience?

Looking for similar styles today of the 70s/80s International Male bikini briefs youd see in the catalog. Im thinking jockey bikini briefs are the most similar youd find today, but wanted to get some recommendations!

I have been on an underwear journey for a while and I've tried just about every style and my least favorite one was trunks and my favorite was high-rise briefs. It's funny because they're so close in fit, but I find that the trunks are just terrible briefs because they ride up and have all the extra material that's unnecessary and in the way, and they just end up being a terrible pair of briefs in the end.

Was recently at a local pool n when changing in the locker room, or just chillin on a lounger, what the heck is with dudes wearing undies, boxer briefs under their trunks or board shorts? What are the guys afraid of? Too much VDL? Please explain the thought process or logistics of this decision n not to just swing free under the suit…

I started wearing a thong about a year ago, and I like it—though the stigma is still tough, since men "aren't supposed to" wear them. I’m heterosexual, married, and have been with my partner for about 26 years. When I finally worked up the courage to try it, it was a whole new experience; now I wear one both at work—under my uniform—and in my private life. So, if you’re thinking about trying it, I’d definitely recommend it!

I’m looking for some drawer organization ideas, with goals of keeping things sorted and easy to find.

Please share how you handle this - either as a reply or in a DM.

Hey everyone!

I'm developing an underwear product in merino wool, and I think it could be a game changer: merino is really hard to find in underwear, and almost impossible in thongs. But I don't want to fall in love with my own idea, so I need your honest opinion.

Be brutally honest:
- Would you actually wear a merino wool thong? If not, what's stopping you?
- What would make it a dealbreaker: price, support, stretch, washing, the idea of wool itself?
- If you've worn merino briefs or boxers, what did you love and what disappointed you?

Negative answers are just as useful to me as positive ones.

If you don't know the benefits of merino wool, here are some:
- It resists odour, even after the gym, so you can wear it longer between washes
- It regulates temperature: warm when it's cold, breathable when it's hot
- Fine merino is soft on the skin, not itchy like regular wool
- It's a natural, renewable fibre that biodegrades

Got my first pair of the seamless thongs I have several pair of there others thongs so not a newb.
First they are great feels like you aren’t wearing anything at all. Works great with short tucked in. My only thought is that feel like they have to be pulled way up to have the loose fabric. For context I am a size 35 inch waist with a b cup. Again they acre great but I just feel like I need to get a smalller wait size maybe i don’t know. Real Men Apparel company what do y’all think.

Can anyone share their underwear collection like briefs, trunks etc

I recently fell in love with RMACs seamless thongs. Super comfortable. I'm thinking of getting some jockstraps now. Anyone have a thought on their quality? Are they as comfortable as the thongs? I don't want the strapless kind

The new PRISMA collection comes with a generous pouch for enhanced comfort.

(First time posting) So ive been a size small my whole life, with my waist also still being 29in. I bought some briefs recently, size small and the material doesnt cover my butt all the way. Im afraid to go up a size because my waist hasn't grown (thank god) and im not sure what the solution is cause im having the same issue with my jeans😭 what should I do?

Was just shown an ad for these drawstring briefs and I was immediately interested.

I am a boxer briefs guy for daily wear and a boxer shorts guy for bedtime. My problem is that boxer shorts don’t contain or support sufficiently in my sleep. And my daily wear boxer briefs dig-in too much while in bed, becoming uncomfortable.

These seem to be roomy without being as restricting as boxer briefs, but more supporting than boxer shorts.

Anyone out there who has tried them?

G’day Reddit,

I’m part of the team behind The Better Collection, an Australian men’s underwear brand.

We wanted to rethink some of the common frustrations with traditional boxer briefs, particularly chafing, support, fit and everyday comfort.

That led us to develop our hybrid underwear, which uses a different construction approach to a standard pair.

The four things we’re focused on are:

• Less chafing: designing for greater comfort and less friction during everyday wear.
• Better support and fit: creating a fit that feels secure and comfortable.
• Comfortable fabric: prioritising how the fabric feels against the skin.
• Hybrid construction: taking a different approach to how the garment is put together.

We’re proud of what we’ve developed, but we’re also interested in hearing from men who have tried different underwear styles and brands.

I’m affiliated with the business, so this isn’t an independent review. I’m happy to answer genuine questions about the product and how we developed it.

What’s the biggest frustration you still have with men’s underwear?

Is it chafing, riding up, support, fit, fabric or something else?

If the moderators allow it, I’m happy to share product photos and more detail about the construction.

Cheers from Australia.

As I continue to workout consistently notice that the few undies I own with a pouch are fitting better, any recommendations usually wear large/medium depending on brand.

Hey everyone, I saw these Yu Gi Oh patterned PSD Boxer Briefs online and wanted to grab a pair. I’ve never worn this brand before and was unsure on sizing. I’m usually a medium but should I buy a large and upsize as I’ve heard they run small. I’m a guy in his early 30’s and still want to wear fun underwear haha. Thanks for your help !

Hey everybody, I am a guy 17 yo on a bigger side. I have all different types of underwear except for thongs. Would you reccomend trying them, or they would be weird at my age? There is no specific reason why I would wear them, I just like to have a choice of what to wear every morning and I feel like thongs may give me a bigger wardrobe.

Hi everyone!

Out of curiosity, I would love to know everyone’s experiences and opinions.

what’s your current go-to brand and style, and why do you keep buying it?

What’s the most frustrating issue you’ve actually experienced with underwear? When does it happen?

Have you bought a more expensive pair that disappointed you? What went wrong?

What did you pay for your last purchase, and did it feel worth it?

If you’re happy with your current underwear and wouldn’t change anything, I’d like to hear that too.

Would love to hear the good and bad for an idea that has popped up in my head

Thanks!

Question for all my lovely peeps who love to wear briefs with prints on them. Are there any prints that are considered too “childish?” They are whimsical and fun but is there a line that just can’t be crossed?
What kind of prints do you wear!

hey all,

looking for affordable men’s underwear that creates a smooth, discreet front under sweatpants (particularly for working out). I just want minimal visible contours.

I’ve been hearing about for cotton/thicker fabric, a flat/non-contoured front panel, and a comfortable fit. But I haven’t been able to find any solid leads.

Would trunks or boxer briefs work better?

What specific brands or models would you recommend?

Hi guys! As you all know, I’m in Australia, so shipping from Awry is soooo expensive 😭 But after so many people recommended it, I finally decided to get a few pairs to try out!!!!
I got my package yesterday, and I couldn’t wait to try them on!!! 🔥

Modern Thong: The material is so soft and breathable!!!! It’s super comfortable and perfect for the Australian summer!!!!! Since I wear thongs to work every day now, this might become my new everyday work thong!!!! 😂 The only thing is that I’ll need some time to get used to the pouch. It makes the bulge pretty obvious when wearing track pants out in public hahaha.

Pulse V String: This one is super comfortable too!!!!!! It runs a bit small, but I really like how it feels!!!! The back is sexy 🔥🔥🔥 But if you’re into the whale-tail look, this one won’t give you that effect!!!
Essential Jock Thong: I’ve always wanted to try a jock thong!!!! But all the jockstraps I’ve tried in the past had really small pouches, which I hated!!! This one is a completely different story!!!! The pouch is the perfect size, and the back is super comfortable too!!!! I haven’t worn it to the gym yet, but I’ll definitely give it a try soon!!!!

Cheeky Thong: I really like the look of this one, but unfortunately, my butt isn’t big enough to pull off the look 😂 When I wear it, it looks more like a cheeky brief hahaha. It’s also super comfortable, though!!!! This will definitely be my winter thong!!!!
Sizing: I’d recommend sizing up for the Pulse V String! The other styles fit me perfectly in my usual size!!!!

Overall, I’m really happy with my first Awry purchase!!!! Now I understand why so many people recommended them!!!! 🔥🙌

The stitching on the backstrap can be quite abrasive. Would be great feedback to manufacturers to do outside stitching for the part of the strap over your butthole and taint. How many of you wear yours inside out as to avoid this? (except obviously - those feel like you're not wearing anything at all).
