Baskit Utility Brief - A Men's Underwear Review

Menswear Review has posted a few underwear reviews on /baskit/ men's underwear line including /baskit/ Snugfit Seamless Fishnet Trunk and Fine Lines Trunk. Today, I've had the pleasure of trying out their Utility brief and have been quite pleased with what I found. In reading the review on Guys Underwear Blog of the /baskit/ Lowrise Utility Trunk, I can say we're on the same page with our impression of the Utility line-up.

While it may not be the sexiest pair of underwear I've reviewed, they are a fantastic pair of stylish everyday men's underwear. The pair I reviewed were powder blue with chocolate waist and leg bands, along with a white accent panel near the front pouch. Made from a quality blend of 93% cotton / 7% spandex, I found the fabric to be soft and comfortable.

In front, I found a comfortable, supportive fly-front pouch. The cotton/spandex blend was comfortable and provided adequate "give" to create a supportive feeling.

The overall fit was quite comfortable. I've actually pulled these out a couple of times when I was in search of a comfortable pair of underwear for the day if that gives you some insight on the comfort factor.

All-in-all, a stylish comfortable pair of men's briefs. Right now, they're on sale at Undergear for just $10.99 (USD) - a steal in my mind for a comfortable, stylish pair of underwear.

Check out the /baskit/ site for more information and other styles.

You can find these available for sale at
Undergear

TOOT Diamond Pt Nano Boxer - A Men's Underwear Review

A few weeks ago, I wrote how TOOT men's underwear is one of the reasons I love writing this blog! Today, my love for TOOT continues. If you are new to TOOT, you should read my last review where I give a bit of background on the brand and the multiple lines they make.

The TOOT Nano Boxer is the focus of this review; in particular, the review is on the Diamond Point Nano Boxer. In my last review of the TOOT Rayon Boxer Brief, I stated that they were one of my favorite pair of men's underwear. The TOOT Nano Boxer receives the same praise. TOOT has designed some really comfortable, sexy men's underwear.

The styling and fit of the TOOT Nano Boxer was very similar to that of the Rayon Boxer Brief. These boxers are short and sexy. The Nano Boxer offers more of a fun, sexy look vs the more conservative look of the Rayon Boxer Brief. The feel of the boxer is a soft cottony feel and sits low on your waist, but just high enough to remain comfortable.

The Nano Boxer is offered in a variety of colors and patterns. To see the full collection, you should see the TOOT website.

Made from 95% Cotton / 5% Polyurethane blend, I found these to be very comfortable for all-day wearing. The blend of material aided in the comfort and molding around my manhood for a supportive, sexy look.

The fit of the boxer brief is incredibly comfortable and supportive. The contoured pouch holds your package comfortably and offers plenty of support. Just as the Rayon Boxer Brief had, there is a center seam which highlights the rear end nicely. Always concerned about rear seams, I found these to be comfortable without giving the wedgie feeling. NOTE: sizing is in Japanese sizes- I usually wear a Medium in US sizes, but took a Large in TOOT. Be sure to size up from what you typically buy.

Quality is again quite evident. Quality material and stitching with flat seams really make this a wonderful pair of men's underwear. As you know from my earlier review, TOOT owns their own factory and doesn't have to deal with outsourcing problems.

All-in-all, a sexy, comfortable pair of underwear. I can easily recommend these to you. You can check out the full range of colors as well as other TOOT styles from their website - www.pants-ya.com.

RATING SYSTEM: 1=POOR, 3=AVERAGE, 5=SUPERIOR

Overall Rating	5/5	Very Sexy, comfortable underwear
Fit	5/5	Fit me very well
Style	5/5	Sexy short boxer
Fabric	5/5	Soft cottony feel
Quality	5/5	Very well made

Size I Wore: L (I'm a 34" waist)

Ergowear Flex Pacific Swimsuit - A Men's Swimwear Review

Today is my first review for Menswear Review. I've been provided an Ergowear Flex Swimsuit – Pacific in size L (I am a 33 waist). While I'm not typically a brief cut swimsuit guy, I was quite impressed with this swimsuit. As you know, Menswear Review has published a number of Ergowear reviews including the new PLUS II line, X3D Bikini, Max Boxer, and more! The Flex Pacific Swimsuit receives great scores, just as the Ergowear men's underwear have.

Fabric: The suit is made of 80% Polyamide and 20% elastane fibers. The fabric was very smooth and comfortable on the skin, while at the same time flexible enough to conform to my shape.

Front: All of the Flex Collection items contain a horizontal elastic strap (about 1 inch wide) that lifts the genitals into the roomy pouch. This may sound uncomfortable just for a little more “show” but in reality it felt quite natural and provided an appropriate amount of support. The visual effect is just another bonus!

Back: The rear of the suit provided enough coverage for me, I do not like how some other brands have the extreme bikini cuts that barely cover and ride up the back.

Style: I liked the dark blue color scheme with the light pumpkin orange side panels. I normally do not wear this style of suit, preferring the more square cut or trunk style, but I must say I did enjoy the day at the pool while wearing this suit, and it was comfortable the entire day without pinching or pulling.

Craftsmanship: The stitching on the seams were nicely done and the different thread colors provided a nice contrast. The elastic support band was sewn into the side panels in such a way as not to “rub” the wrong way or cause any irritation. Overall I think the suit is well made and will maintain its colors without fading.

For more information about the Flex Swimsuit or any of Ergowear's line, checkout their site and online store.

RATING SYSTEM: 1=POOR, 3=AVERAGE, 5=SUPERIOR

Overall Rating	4/5	I usually prefer a square cut, but I certainly felt comfortable and enjoyed this suit
Fit	5/5	The support band was surprisingly comfortable!
Style	4/5	A little more revealing than I prefer, but loved the color scheme and support
Fabric	5/5	Very comfortable and flexible to conform to your personal shape and look good at the same time
Quality	5/5	Nice stitching on the seams and quality fabric makes for a nice suit

Size I Wore: L (I'm a 33" waist)

Lodoli @Water Swim Brief - A Men's Swimwear Review

Reviewed by Eric Layman

Today, I had the distinct pleasure of reviewing the Lodoli @water in a size medium (I am a 31 waist). Menswear Review has reviewed a few of Lodoli's items, including the RP Ero, Roky, and La Bomba Enhancing brief. The @Water is the first swimsuit review but is just as wonderful as the Lodoli underwear that was previously reviewed.

Fabric: WOW, the 80% polyamide / 20% spandex fabric has the feel of a great fitting isotoner glove. This extremely soft fabric was comfortable and fast drying. I tried the hot fuchsia color and received many compliments. The @Water comes in several great colors. Check out the Lodoli website for the full range of colors.

Front: The front pouch was very comfortable and “showy” without any enhancing implements. It is also double-lined and could not be seen through, even when wet. The feel was supportive without being constricting or tight. Loved it!

Back: The full coverage rear was just as comfortable as the rest of the suit. It stayed in place well and almost felt like wearing nothing at all. Very impressive indeed!

Style: Aside from the hot colors, the cut is wonderfully sexy without showing a lot of extra skin. There is a wide contrasting stripe on the left and LODOLI logo on the right, which adds a nice touch.

Craftsmanship: Extremely well made swimsuit. I was very impressed with the way this suit was put together.

RATING SYSTEM: 1=POOR, 3=AVERAGE, 5=SUPERIOR

Overall Rating	5/5	A++, will defintely be in by favorite's drawer!
Fit	5/5	Like a glove
Style	5/5	Showy and sexy, I received many compliments with them on
Fabric	5/5	Extremely soft, barely there feeling
Quality	5/5	Very impressive, Top Quality!
