Core-Point Kump Brief Review

The Core-Point Kump is a fun, sexy lowrise brief. Core-Point states they have been, "... committed to create premium quality products with innovative and unexpected style with a passion for street structure." I would say they've met their goal. The anarchy styling of the Kump brief brings out the urban, street-tough side of you.

The Kump brief is made from 95% cotton/5% elastane. The blend of materials creates a comfortable cottony feel with just enough stretch to keep it's form after a day's wearing. The cut of the brief is definitely lowrise and were very comfortable under a pair of lowrise jeans. For the rear, I was pleasantly surprise to find NO seams to irritate you throughout the day and adequate rear-end coverage - something which is often missing with a lowrise.

Overall, these are a great brief. If you like a lowrise brief, you'll certainly be happy with these. As a nice add-on, their designs also comes in a women's line. Core-Point's sizing is different from other manufacturers so be sure to double check the size chart.

For an added bonus, Core-Point is a member of 1% For The Planet where 1% of profits go to environmental non-profit groups.

Core-Point Hibiscus Trunk Review - You're going to like these!

The Core-Point Hibiscus Trunk is another winner in my reviews this week. Core-Point states they have been, "... committed to create premium quality products with innovative and unexpected style with a passion for street structure." I would say they've met their goal.

The pair of Hibiscus trunks (boxer briefs) I tried on were really very comfortable all day long. The Core-Point Hibiscus Trunk is made from 80% polyester/20% elastane. The blend of materials creates a silky feel and body-conforming stretch. When I say stretch, I don't want to imply tight, because it's not. By stretch, I mean that the material wraps the contours of your body to support you without the look of "extra" bulk material.

The cut of the Hibiscus Trunk is such that it creates a comfortable front pouch. The legs on the trunk are average in length. The length is nice for multiple seasonal wear - not too long that you're too hot and not too short that you have a brief style. What I appreciated about the trunk is that the legs stayed in place and didn't ride up. This, in part, is due to the elastane in the fabric along with the cut of the trunk. For the rear, I was pleasantly surprise to find NO seams to irritate you throughout the day.

I must say, these are one of those pairs of trunks you wear without being reminded your wearing underwear - no readjustments, no squashing, no itchy seams in the wrong spots. Comfort and style is what I look for and that's exactly what I found. As a nice add-on, their designs also comes in a women's line.

For an added bonus, Core-Point is a member of 1% For The Planet where 1% of profits go to environmental non-profit groups.
