Be Aware. Be Sexy. Be Comfortable. Aware SOHO have created a sexy yet comfortable jockstrap in basic black with a very modern 1.5” waistband. The waistband features the AWARE SOHO brand in the front centre panel with horizontal stripes of bright pink, brilliant blue and white stripes on a black background. This adds to the charm of a modern yet sophisticated jockstrap.

Front: Aware SOHO have constructed the jockstrap out of cotton (95%) and Elastane (5%). By adding the Elastane to the fabric, it allows the pouch to mould nicely around your package and makes it look more enticing for any possible suitor. However, the pouch needs to be larger for those of us that are larger endowed. I noticed that if you become too excited that it does not quite hold your package enough. Although, I wore the jockstrap to work all day and felt well supported throughout day. This would be a fantastic jockstrap when mucking around with hot guys on the basketball court or while exercising at the gym.

Back: The rear straps add to the comfort to the underwear, the straps are not too tight. Rather, the straps help to shape your buttocks and frame them nicely. The straps are wide enough and do not dig in even with wearing the jockstrap for the whole day. Although, I did need to adjust the straps a couple of times.

Style: A very modern and sporty looking jockstrap where you will you will be the centre of attention. The basic black jockstrap with the vibrant colours in the waistband will continue to look great even after considerable wear. However, one downfall coming from Australia is the sizing. Normally I wear SMALL jockstraps, however, like other brands like Bike I have needed to wear a larger size. This is the case with Aware SOHO where I needed to wear a LARGE jockstrap. If you are going to buy one remember to try and size up slightly.

Craftsmanship: Aware SOHO has attempted to construct a quality men's underwear with using well-sourced materials, which adds to the comfort. However, Aware SOHO needs to spend some more time in the machining of the product. There are several instances across the garment where the stitching is starting to unravel, especially in the pouch and at the sides where the straps are attached.

An affordable jockstrap ($19 USD) for those who want to look sexier without maxing out your credit cards. Aware SOHO also has a variety of other colors and looks in their jockstrap collections. Go have a look at their website: http://www.awaresoho.com.
