Men's Lingerie: Your Arse Deserves Better Than Saggy Old Undies

You've been wearing those undies since before your last lease. The elastic's given up, there's a hole you've chosen not to think about, and tonight someone's going to see them. Or you could walk out of the bathroom in a jockstrap, with your whole arse framed by two straps, and watch their face change. Your arse deserves better. So do they.

Men's lingerie has come a long way from the novelty elephant trunk. Start with what you want to show off. Your real choices are how much fabric you'd like, and where.

Briefs and boxers, with more to look at

Briefs leave more of your thighs bare, while boxers run further down your leg. A sheer style keeps the outline of ordinary undies while revealing a lot more than usual. Mesh boxers are an easy way in, and fishnet open-back briefs are a much bolder idea. A good defined waistband gives it all a clear edge, and a low rise shows more hip.

Want your arse on show?

A jockstrap's straps frame your arse and leave it completely bare, while a thong gives you a narrow strip that runs between your cheeks. It's one of the hottest things a person with a good arse, or any arse, can put on. Comfort matters, because those straps stay close to your body, and you want them sitting where they're meant to, not sawing into anything.

Mesh and lace show different amounts

Fine mesh gives a hazy view through the fabric, while larger net openings reveal much more. Black lace on bare thighs is a very different mood from bright mesh. An open shirt or a loosely tied robe can give either one some extra build-up. Leave it open, walk slowly and let them get a good look.

Make room at the front

A shaped pouch gives your cock and balls more space than a flat front, and it shows them off a lot better too. For the waistband, measure where it'll actually sit, as low-rise pieces don't sit at your usual waist. The same goes for any straps and openings. They should go where the design intends, without squashing anything you're planning to use. And get a fit that accounts for you when you're hard. It's going to come up.

Add something extra

A leather harness across your chest looks very serious with nothing else but a jock. For separate pieces, keep it simple, as a plain open shirt with lace briefs goes a long way. Explore our lingerie collection for what's in right now, and use our lingerie buying guide to help with fit.

Wash it gently

Lace and mesh want a gentler wash than your old gym shorts. Our guide to washing lingerie shows you how. And while you're at the laundry, throw out those old undies. They've done enough.
