Groovin' Lowrise Hip Brief - A Men's Underwear Review

Menswear Review
A week ago or so, I wrote about Goovin', a relative newcomer to men's underwear. This Japanese owned company specializing in men's underwear.
Goovin' tells me that they look to accentuate the male form through fun, vibrant styles. I say, Goal Achieved! I have had the opportunity to review four different pairs of Groovin' men's underwear, with this being the first. My first Groovin' review is on their Lowrise Hip Brief.
The Groovin' Lowrise Hip Brief comes in some fun vibrant colors. The pair I tried was in a very vibrant orange - a fun color for summertime. The lowrise hip brief is made from a blend of 92% nylon and 8% lycra. Being a nylon/lycra blend, the fabric is quite soft with a bit of a shine to it - nice bonus when you compliment with the vibrant colors.
When I look at the pictures, knowing they were lowrise, I wasn't sure how they'd fit. Well, I must say, they were fantastic. While being lowrise, they were extremely comfortable with where they rested on my hips, and (hooray) they have full rear-end coverage!
For the pouch, they were perfect for me. Between the way they are assembled, in combination with the fabric, I head plenty of room and was full supported. The stretchy nature of the fabric will certainly allow for variations in one's pouch size.
All in all, these are a sexy, comfortable, fun pair of underwear. I'm actually wearing the Groovin' Wide Waist Lowrise Hip Brief today and am equally satisfied, look for a review on those soon. This particular style, the Lowrise Brief, and Groovin's other styles are on list of favorites. I can easily recommend them to you. Quite reasonably priced at $16.99 (USD), they're a great value for the money.
You can find Groovin' online through Amazon, http://www.groovin.sg, and http://www.mensurbandesigns.com. Hopefully we will see Groovin' more widely available as they are actively looking for local or regional partnerships.

Mundo Unico Make the Top 10 Swim Shorts List
$57.50
Mundo Unico has designed some impressive board shorts. The board shorts are available in five different design patterns: Arrecife (white with brown and blue palms), Pacifico (light blue with stripes down the side and white flowers), Marino (dark blue with white and electric blue palms), Exotico (white with vivid orange palms) and Indigo (black with red and white strips and white flowers). In picture and in person, these are some very attractive designs. My favorite of the 5 would be Arrecife, Pacifico, or Indigo.
MATERIAL
The board shorts are made from 100% Micrel Nylon. The Micrel material has 2 to 3 times more filaments than a regular yarn to give it a fine appearance and feel. The material allows for quick drying.
The Unico Board Shorts are unlined for a quicker drying time. Stitching and workmanship is of excellent quality. While the front fly is velcro, Unico adds a bit of extra material to avoid the short and curlys from getting caught.
POCKETS
There are two deep front pockets. The pockets are nice for when you're out of the water and wearing them like regular shorts. I would not, however, place a room key or other valuables in them as they would slide out while swimming.
FIT
Overall, a very comfortable fit. The legs of the board shorts come down to your knees. Uncio does use flat seams so you don't feel the seams. This is important when you're wearing an unlined board short (which most are) and not wearing anything underneath. See my post on what to wear under board shorts.
Overall, I can say that I truly enjoyed these board shorts and can confidently recommend them to you. They're stylish, comfortable and well made.
