Equmen Long Trunks Review - big hit!

In previous posts, I wrote accolades about the Equmen Core Point undershirt and the Equmen Trunks. Today, I've been fortunate enough to try the long trunk. Before I get on with the review, I really must say that one of the things I like best about Equmen is that their products are incredible for athletes but they're also fantastic for the average "Joe" who just needs support!

Made from the same material as the Core Point undershirt and trunks, the long trunks were just as soft, comfortable and supportive. The high-performance long trunk, designed with Helix-mapping technology, is an enhancement on the regular trunk with it's seamless body-enhancing fit - supporting your rear. The long trunk is a body-forming fit which creates great comfort and support in all areas. I really like the long trunk for it's support and enhancement to my thigh muscles when playing sports. After exercising I found the trunks to breath very well, wicking the moisture from me. Essential to me, the legs stay in place where they should and don't ride up during the day.

For style, I found the trunks to have a masculine look to them while still providing some sex appeal – form fitting look. Available in white, grey, blue or black, you should find a pair that matches your taste.

As I stated earlier, these are for both the athlete and the regular guy. I wore these a different day under my business suit because they're so comfortable and supportive. You really can't go wrong with Equmen.

The Equmen underwear also comes in a brief, trunk and long trunk. I've added these to my personal favorites list.

Equmen Boxer Briefs - you won't be disappointed!

In a another post, I wrote accolades about the Equmen Core Point undershirt. I'm about to do the same for their trunk. The trunk comes a higher than usual price of $58 a pair but are well worth it.

Made from the same material as the Core Point undershirt, the trunks were just as soft, comfortable and supportive as the shirt. The trunk had a snug fit – not to be confused with a tight fit. One of the problems I often find with trunks (boxer briefs) is the legs riding up throughout the day. With the Equmen trunk, I didn't have that problem at all. The legs stayed just were they should. The engineering behind the trunks is just as effective as it was on the shirt with their helix-mapping support. My package and rear felt well supported throughout the day.

From a fashion/style perspective, I found the trunks to have a masculine look to them while still providing some sex appeal – let's just say my wife liked them too. Available in white, grey, blue or black, you should find a pair that matches your taste.

I feel I put the briefs through a good battery of tests. I spent my day wearing them under my business suit and was very comfortable all day. After work I began my workout. After lengthy exercising I found the trunks (and shirt) to breath very well, wicking the moisture from me. After my workout, it was time to shovel out from the foot of snow we were hit with during the day. Again, I found both the trunk and shirt to perform very well – wicking away moisture without making me cold.

In sum, they make a perfect undershirt or base-layer. At $58 a pair they're pricy, but worth the money. You won't be disappointed. The Equmen underwear also comes in a brief and as long trunks. I haven't tried these but if they're anything like the trunks, you'll love them. I've added these to my personal favorites list.

Equmen Core Precision Undershirt - do yourself a favor

The Equmen Core Precision is simply fantastic. When I first tried it on, I was concerned it was going to be too tight. After a few minutes, the shirt felt very comfortable. After moving too many Christmas decorations, I had strained my back earlier in the week. Throughout the day, I couldn't help but notice how Equmen was actually helping my back. The design of the shirt itself is engineered to reduce back pain and support your core.

According to Equmen, their shirt was made to fit tight in order to give optimum performance. Equmen reports that the undershirt was designed in conjunction with physiotherapists and ergonomic specialists to improve posture, reduce back pain and provide core support.You can easily tell from looking at the shirt that it was purposefully engineered to match your physiology. The high quality fabric (73% polyester, 13% nylon, 14% spandex) is really a very comfortable blend of materials.

From a comfort perspective, I've mentioned that the shirt was comfortable all day (and this was under a dress shirt). What I haven't mentioned is that I typically am skeptical of v-neck shirts as the collar on often doesn't come high enough on my neck for my comfort. The Core Precision, on the other hand fit like a glove and sat on my neck like a typical crew would.

It's important to know that after I wore the Core Precision all day under my business suit, I came home to exercise and then shovel the foot of snow that was dumped during the day. I found the shirt to be incredible for wicking away sweat without making me cold. In addition, the helix-mapping helped my back-straining labor of shoveling heavy snow. I simply couldn't have asked for a better shirt.

I can easily see multiple purposes – as a typical undershirt, for exercise, as a base-layer, and for its slimming qualities. I haven't mentioned this yet, but in high school I was a swimmer with a swimmer build – college and marriage have added a few pounds. I really appreciated the slimming power of the shirt. Have a wedding or class reunion you're going to attend? Get one of these to help you out!

The Core Precision undershirt is available in black, grey, and white. It comes in a longsleeve, crewneck, and tanktop. Main competitors are the RIPT Fusion ($58) and Sclulptee ($78). RIPT gives you the slimming qualities but not the back support. Sculptees gives you nearly the same qualities as Equmen. Equmen gave me better back support, but Sculptees was better at slimming.

In sum, everyone guy should own at least one of the Core Precision undershirts. If you have back problems, you should probably own a few. At $99 each they are expensive but oh so worth it. I haven't tried the longsleeve or tanktop but can only assume they're just as awesome as the v-neck. I've just added Equmen to my list of favorites.
