Okay so we all laughed when Andrew Christian came out with his penis-enhancing underpants, but at least we knew where he was coming from. His latest, Valentine’s Day-themed foray into men’s underwear are “snuggle pocket briefs,” which I just… I just don’t get. The official explanation doesn’t really help: “your package falls naturally into the super soft snuggle pocket… the pouch virtually eliminates sticking, squashing, re-adjusting, sweating, and chafing.” Wow, really, is that what dudes have to contend with every day? Sucks to be you! And while I’ll leave judgment on whether this device/undergarment looks comfortable to the relevant parties, when it comes to the aesthetics of the penis hang…

That’s not really doing it for me. Let’s see the “sheer, sexy, red mesh [back]… that allows a hint of skin to show through.”

    i bought a pair of these (with some apprehension) for my boyfriend. i have to say, he looks totally hot in them. and the fabric is comfy.

  2. Wieners aren’t like boobs; it’s not healthy to smash em up against your body with your under garments however you see fit. The package hangs away from the body to thermo regulate. Traditional briefs don’t let that happen.

    It would appear like these give you the free hang of boxers with the look of briefs.

    Also, it sounds like there’s actually a separate pocket for your junk to set in that keeps it away from making direct contact w/ you legs, which would be nice for a guy that shaves and has itchy stubble, and it would eliminate stickage in hot weather.

  3. I will need to try a pair of these. As I have gotten older I have noticed that with boxers my sack tends to get stuck to the side of my thigh, causing a “bat-wing” effect. These look like they will help, without constricting like the standard briefs I hate.

  4. I like fabric separating my scrotum from my thighs. Also, when I used to wear boxers, I accidentally sat on my balls and it was a far-less-than-pleasant experience. Keeping your boys secure is a win-win. You asked.

  5. I would rather deal with “sticking, squashing, re-adjusting, sweating, and chafing” than the “bleeding, bleeding, bleeding, bleeding, bleeding” that comes with a vagina!

  6. @Todd — come on, you can teabag in these and still have the protection of a little cloth so you don’t get you sack dirty while getting dirty on the rack at Embers.

  7. Support is good. You know, for those of us who really need it that is (wink wink) And a peekaboo ass is always good for those of us who really like to see that sort of thing. The only thing is I’m not a fan of the color. Do they come in blue? green?
