Schultz I Want Out Boxer Brief - A Men's Underwear Review
Schultz Jeans make more than just fantastic jeans... they make awesome underwear too!
Finding a great pair of jeans was the tip of the iceberg when I found out about Schultz. If you recall, I wrote a review a bit ago on their Greatwhite Jeans and absolutely loved them. I've been fortunate enough to also try out their underwear and all I can say is WOW!While the underwear's waistband boldly states, "I Want Out" you'll be quite content staying in - who am I kidding, after your lover sees you, you'll want out but you'll look forward to getting back in later on ;-D.
The Schultz I Want Out boxer briefs are a very comfortable pair of men's underwear. The style is a classic boxer brief look and certainly a masculine look. The classic fly front ads to its classic look. Available in white, black, and and yellow, you'll look great in these and can have fun with I Want Out waistband.
The boxer briefs are made from 100% ribbed cotton for a soft, comfortable cotton feel. At first I was concerned about them being 100% cotton in that without elastane, 100% cotton tends to loose its shape over the course of the day. Schultz rectifies this concern by add elastic to its leg-bands. The elastic leg bands secured them to your legs and I didn't experience any riding up of the legs during the day.
For the front, Schultz does use a fly front. While some guys do use the fly when using the restroom, most guys really just pull them down a bit and go over the top. So, for functionality, it's there but really a matter of whether you'll use it or not. I believe the use of a fly front is really from a style/aesthetics perspective to give it the classic, masculine look and not necessarily for it's functional use. The front was comfortable and supportive, but would be curious to see what a pouch would do instead. Again, quite comfortable with the fly front.
Overall, a fantastic pair of boxer briefs. I found myself wearing these a couple of times because they were so comfortable. I really liked the elastic in the leg-bands as they kept them from riding up - an all too often problem with boxer briefs. I can recommend these to you and are on my favorites list. At £18.50 (aprx $28 USD). Schultz does ship internationally. So, check out their underwear line at www.schultzjeans.com. In addition to "I Want Out", you'll also discover Coming Soon, Hands Free, Heat Seeker, Get A Grip, and Girls On Top.

aussieBum Bondi Series Makes Top 10 List!
aussieBum Bondi Surf Series
Makes the Top 10 Swim Shorts List!
Inspired by Bondi Beach, aussieBum just released this awesome new range. Menswear Review was the only place you could find the pre-lease leak of the new Bondi Series - well, at least the first :-)
The new Bondi Series is definitely a retro look with a surfwear print twist. The Bondi Series are a shorter swim trunk, very similar in length to aB's Scent Ocean range. In my opinion, they are still in the comfort zone for modesty for guys that aren't quite ready to move to square-cut trunks but would like them a bit shorter than the traditional boardies. The Bondi Surf Series rests about mid-thigh.
As always, I really enjoy the colors and patterns they roll out. The Bondi Surf Series will come in three different colors/designs: Black with blue and white florals (Sand), Blue with orange and white florals (Sun), and Light Blue with red florals (Surf). all of the designs utilize white piping around the legs and sides, giving them the retro look.
MATERIAL
The board shorts are made from a quality grade 100% Polyester. The swim trunks are unlined and feature a gathered waistband with string tie in the front. These were very fast drying.
POCKETS
There are two mesh front pockets that are deep enough to be usable -though I wouldn't leave my hotel key in them.
FIT
A very comfortable fit. The gathered waistband allows for accommodating slight changes in sizing. I really liked how the legs rested mid-thigh. This gave me a comfortable feel and allowed my legs to get a bit more sun.
Enjoy the Surf, Sun or Sand in these awesome retro swim shorts. The Bondi Series are truly fabulous swim shorts and can easily recommend these to you. Enjoy.

ManView Bodywear Splash - An Underwear Review
Make A Splash!
Of the now 4 styles I've reviewed, China Groove, About Face, and Flavours are very similar in their cut. Splash, however, is a bit different from the others. While Splash has the same comfortable pouch and mid-rise trunk sizing, they feature two front pockets for whatever you'd like to carry around - perhaps even for some pocket pool. ;-) In addition, the Splash has the word "Goood" splashed across your rear.
As I've said, Splash has the same comfortable contoured pouch that the other designs have. The pouch is a single layer of fabric, which helps eliminate the bulk of double lined, and has a center flat seam going down the center to add to the aesthetics. You can't feel the seam, so don't be afraid of any irritation. The pouch is VERY flattering and supportive. Truly, I love how your package looks and feels in this pouch.
Like the other ManViews I've reviewed, these are also a mini-trunk with short 7" sides to great a very attractive look. In addition to great looks, the mini-trunk cut also helps with eliminating the legs of the underwear from riding up - as can happen with boxer-briefs. The mini-trunk is made from a soft, comfortable blend of 95% Cotton/5% Spandex. The little bit of Spandex added really helps the underwear keep its form and mold better to your body.
Quality is evident throughout the mini-trunk. The grade of material is high and the underwear features double stitched flat seams. I'd again recommend ManView Bodywear and the Splash mini-trunk. Reasonably priced at $18.99 USD, they're a great buy.
