Lodoli Roky Boxer Brief - A Men's Underwear Review

5/12/2010 02:01:00 PM |

Posted by Menswear Review |

Edit Post

Earlier this week, I reviewed a new pair men's underwear from Lodoli called the La Bomba - an enhancing brief. You may recall that Lodoli is a relatively new brand from Croatia by designer Roland Lodoli.

Today's review is on Lodoli's Roky boxer brief. The Roky is a pouch style boxer brief made from an incredible micromodal blend.

After a day's wearing, I can honestly say these are one of the most comfortable pair of underwear I've worn. I've really become a big fan of mircomodal fabric for it's softness and natural qualities. The micromodal used by Lodoli is heavier than other brands I've tried. The heavier fabric is extremely soft a bit more durable than some of the other brands I've tried who use this material. Now, I don't want to scare you off with the "heavier" comment. This does not mean that the fabric is too thick. Rather, it means that the fabric isn't as paper thin as others. I really like the blend Lodoli used.
I found the waistband and leg bands to be quite comfortable too. The leg bands have a bit more elastic in them than I've felt before. So, the leg bands were nice and snug which really helped keep the legs where they should be to avoid riding up on you.
Best of all, the pouch in the Lodoli Roky was wonderful. I love it when designers actually think about the male anatomy when designing underwear. Combined with the incredibly soft micromodal material, the pouch was very comfortable and supportive for me throughout the day.
All in all, I can say these are again a quality, comfortable pair of men's underwear that deserves a look as you seek out new underwear. I easily recommend these to you and have added them to my list of favorites. At roughly $17.50 USD (rough conversion) they're a great buy for such a comfortable, quality pair of men's underwear. Check out Lodoli's site for this and other styles.

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

Overall Rating	5/5	Simply awesome and at a great price!
Fit	5/5	Fit very well
Style	5/5	A good look and stylish waistband
Fabric	5/5	Incredibly soft
Quality	5/5	Very well made

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

2Wink Space Cadet - A Men's Underwear Review

5/10/2010 02:24:00 PM |

Edit Post

Inspired by Buzz Lightyear, 2Wink rolls out their new Space Cadet men's boxer brief. Ready to launch?

After reviewing 2Wink's Hot Angel, Cool Devil boxer briefs and now their Space Cadet boxer briefs, one thing I can say for certain is that 2Wink makes high-quality underwear.

I am again impressed with the quality of material they use, the "fuzzy" waistband, and the quality workmanship. I can also say, that I am again impressed by 2Wink's styling - from the cut to color. Made from 92% cotton, 8% spandex, these were cotton-soft with a bit of stretch to them. The 2Wink Space Cadet are fun, sexy looking pair of men's boxer briefs with their deep purple coloring and green accenting; You really can tell that Buzz Lightyear was an inspiration for these.

On comfort, I found these to fit similar to how the Hot Angel, Cool Devil boxer briefs fit. They are certainly a lowrise and sit a bit lower than I typically like my lowrise underwear to sit - still ok but would like a tad higher. For the pouch, I would say the same. The pouch was a tag snug, still comfortable, but enjoy a roomier pouch. For guys that like a snug fit, these should be great for you.

For leg and waistbands, I really like their waistband as it's the "fuzzy" type - very soft! The leg bands are also comfortable and hold the legs in place to avoid riding up during the day.

If you're new to 2Wink, they're an Australia brand made in Perth and started up in 2005. They recently brought production back from China to better manage quality control. From what I've read about early productions of 2Wink, I think they've made the right move - definitely a quality brand! 2Wink can be found in over 30 countries and are expanding into swimwear soon.

All in all, a decent boxer brief; with a few tweaks they be on my top 5 list. Even so, I would recommend these to you. If you're concerned about sizing, you may want to consider a size up to avoid the snug fit. Priced a $18.75 (USD) they're a good buy for the quality you get. So, become a "Defender of the Galaxy" and check out 2Wink's Space Cadet.

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

Overall Rating	4/5	High quality at a reasonable price
Fit	4/5	Comfortable but snug. You may want to consider a size up.
Style	4/5	Sexy, masculine, playful
Fabric	4/5	Nice quality cotton - could use a tad more stretch
Quality	5/5	Very well made, appreciate them being tagless

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

Lodoli La Bomba Enhancing Briefs - A Men's Underwear Review

5/09/2010 11:40:00 AM |

Posted by Menswear Review |

Edit Post

Do your boys need a lift? If they do, I've got a new pair of men's underwear for you. A relatively new brand who's being noticed around the world is Lodoli (after designer Roland Lodoli) out of Croatia.

Lodoli has underwear, sportswear and swimwear lines for both men and women. For this review, we'll be looking at Lodoli's enhancing underwear, in particular the La Bomba. The La Bomba is the man's version of the push-up bra - similar to aussieBum's Wonder Jock. Actually, the La Bomba is extremely similar to the Wonder Jock. Inside the pouch is a smaller pouch sewn in where you place your boys. The resulting effecting is a lifting and enhancing look. For me, this is much more comfortable than a strap or some other mechanism to lift things up.
After a day's wearing, I can honestly say these were quite comfortable. I'm always a bit skeptical of enhancing underwear - some work as they should but comfort is sacrificed as a result; for Lodoli's La Bomba, they enhance AND are comfortable!
The La Bomba are made from 100% cotton, which typically concerns me as 100% cotton often stretches out and sags. While La Bomba is made from 100% cotton, the piping around the pouch and legs, along with the quality grade of cotton, kept the shape and form quite well.
For comfort, I mentioned already that I found the pouch to be comfortable for the day's wearing. In addition, I found the leg bands and to be comfortable too. The leg bands grip your leg comfortably - snug enough to keep them in place, but not too restrictive. The waistband is made from typical elastic. While comfortable enough, it's the one recommendation I could make to Lodoli for upgrading. Last, and critical for me, is the rear coverage. I'm happy to report that the La Bomba has a full seat that was also very comfortable.

All in all, I can say these are a quality, comfortable pair of men's underwear that indeed enhances your profile without sacrificing comfort. I can comfortable recommend them to you and have added them to my list of favorites. At roughly $17.50 USD (rough conversion) they're a reasonable buy for a quality pair of men's underwear.
I'll be posting a review in the next few days on Lodoli's Roky boxer brief made from micromodal and their RP Ero, their semi-sheer boxer brief. Look for these additional reviews in the next few days.

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

Overall Rating	4.75/5	Comfortable enhancing brief
Fit	4.75/5	Fit well including the enhancing pouch
Style	4.5/5	A standard "look" with the extra enhancing look too
Fabric	4/5	Quality cotton
Quality	5/5	Stitching and fabric are of good quality
