Guys, we are so excited to introduce you to Jeff, the newest addition to the GUB team. Today Jeff will be reviewing the fun new Festive range by Greece’s number one men’s underwear brand, Modus Vivendi.

By Jeff

We all own many pair of underwear that we like because of the way they look or feel on us.  After all, who doesn’t want to look good and feel comfortable?  But there’s a certain niche that’s lacking from many of our wardrobes – a niche that combines comfort, sex appeal and a healthy dose of FUN.  This is the niche that Modus Vivendi’s new Festive Line of briefs, boxer briefs/trunks and jockstraps successfully fills.

For those of you not familiar with Modus Vivendi…they are a Greek menswear company that focuses primarily on designing underwear.

Combining comfortable materials with low-rise styling and fun details, the Festive line is designed for the man who is confident enough to wear something bold and different.  This isn’t your everyday underwear that will go unnoticed when someone sees you in them.  Instead, it draws attention and adds levity.

For this line, Modus Vivendi used a velvety material that is a cotton/polyester blend.  I tried three pair.  The Rock Velvet Brief and Velvet Stars Brief are both 80% cotton / 20% Polyester.  And the Bon Bon Mini Brief is 65% Cotton / 35% Polyester.  The fabric is quite soft and comfortable.  It’s also somewhat thicker than usual, so I wouldn’t recommend wearing them on a hot summer day or with tight jeans that can reveal underwear lines.

The Rock Velvet Brief has a gold stripe with pyramid-shaped studs going down the pouch, the Velvet Stars Brief has 5 stars of various sizes embroidered on the front, and the Bon Bon Mini Brief (available in fuchsia, orange and yellow) has bikini styling and a strip of elastic that runs vertically up the seat, showing the separation of the cheeks.

All three pair that I tried offer a sexy, low-rise cut and a pouch that provides ample support.  I found them to be comfortable, soft to the touch and well made.  And frankly, it was fun wearing them.  So will I get much use out of them?  I will definitely wear the two pair of briefs (I really want to go to a toga party and wear a pair of white Rock Velvet Briefs underneath!), but must admit that I need more of a bubble butt in order to look my best in the Bon Bon Mini Brief.

I would categorize the Festive line as either special occasion underwear to be worn on dates that you expect to turn fun or “mood improvement” underwear to be worn when you need to add some liveliness to your day.  All in all, this is a welcome addition to my underwear drawer!

Our favorite Greek men’s underwear brand, Modus Vivendi, is once again introducing a new line of exotic men’s underwear. And we have all the info – and the best pictures.

This time they’ve labeled the new range “Festive”, and it is indeed. Bright colors and a signature star print are the simple trade mark design features of this line.

But of course, as always with Modus Vivendi, really it is the very distinctive cuts and fabric choices that steal the spotlight. These babies are made from full-on velvet, guys! A perfect Christmas item, don’t you think?

The festive mini (bikini) briefs, briefs, and jockstrap range between $26 and $36 USD.

Check out the entire range over at www.e-modusvivendi.com.

We love it!

So, we just checked the stats for Guys’ Underwear Blog and found that thousands of the people that visit our humble site are looking for jockstrap contents.

And as always, what the people want, we deliver!

As part our effort to bring you more jockstrap pictures, news and sales, we have started working with the jockstrap mother ship that is Jockstrap Central, not to mention the many other fine underwear companies that help fuel our blog with inspiring jockstrap content – many of which you see in the column on the right.

Anyway, today we thought we’d bring you guys some new inspiration from jockstrap makers Modus Vivendi and Jack Adams.

First off there’s the interesting new Rough jockstrap collection from Modus Vivendi that feature an innovative take on strap design. Available at $39 USD, you can get that over at www.e-modusvivendi.com. See pictures below.

Second there’s the Jack Adams Ranger Fly X Jockstrap, an elegant new fashion jockstrap available at just $23.95 over at 10percent.com.

Each has an appealing look we think! Don’t you agree?

Enjoy the pics, guys.

Our Greek friends over at Modus Vivendi are at again with a brand new range of God-worthy undies.

The range is called ARES, after the Greek God of war. He embodied the physical valor necessary for success in war. He was a dangerous force, overwhelming, insatiable in battle, destructive, and man-slaughtering.

Yikes! That’s one mean motherf***er!

So it’s only appropriate that the new range is fitted with a MAJOR steel badge at the front of the 2 inch wide waistband. It almost like a fighter championship victory belt. How fitting.

This is definitely underwear to wear if you want to command respect (and a bit of fear) from anyone who is fortunate enough to see you in these babies.

The briefs are, well, a bit expensive ($80 USD), but if you want truly divine underwear, it’ll cost ya. The ARES range is also available as jockstrap. And hey, if you register at their site, you’ll get a 10 % discount. Note bad.

Check out more info at Modus Vivendi’s all new website, www.emodusvivendi.com.

So, it’s only been a few weeks since Modus Vivendi launched their Apollo and Hermes men’s underwear collections.

Yet, already they’re at it again, launching two new collections that are truly worthy of gods.

Behold the Zeus & Dionysus collections (below)!

We must admit that we find these new styles very intriguing. It’s definitely not everyday wear, that’s for sure.

We get the feeling that some of these styles could have been worn by Greek athletes in the ancient Olympic games – like that rope-type jockstrap or the skimpy t-string (had it not been made from a very modern 48% cotton, 47% polyster and 5% elastan fabric mix with metal fibers!).

Even though Modus Vivendi is obviously high-quality specialty underwear, the price isn’t actually too bad. The t-string bikini is $32 USD, the rope jockstrap is $50, and the briefs are about $40.

Greetings from California where I’m currently roatripping. Such nice weather you guys have here.

So over there in Europe, our favorite Greek underwear brand, Modus Vivendi, is doing their bit to save their country from financial ruin by launching a new range of underwear inspired by Greek gods, Hermes and Apollo.

Hermes is the great messenger of the gods in Greek mythology and a guide to the Underworld. An Olympian god, he is also the patron of boundaries and of the travelers who cross them, of shepherds and cowherds, of the cunning of the thieves, of orators and wit, of literature and poets, of athletes and sports, of weights and measures, of invention, and of commerce in general.

Ahhh, pause for breath. That is one busy and diverse Greek god!

And now he can add God of men’s underwear as well – what an honor!

The same goes for Apollo who, besides providing a divine touch to this new undies collection, has to supervise light and sun, truth and prophecy, medicine, healing, music, arts, and more.

Fit for a Greek god, the new Modus Vivendi underwear collection is pretty extensive and include new briefs, jocktraps, and trunks.

In terms of price, the new items are VERY affordable, ranging from just $17 USD for a pair of briefs to about $20 for a pair of trunks.

The styles include Modus Vivendi’s signature swimsuit-like strings as well as as some over-sized buttons down the center of the fly.

Check out the new collection over at www.e-modusvivendi.com.

Get an impression of what you can expect from the pics below.

Skilled men’s underwear photographer, John Mitchel, recently did a photo shoot featuring tough-ass, super fit bodybuilder-slash-male-underwear-model, John Quinlan.

Seriously, this John Quinlan looks like he should be an action flick or something. He’s got one mean Bruce Willis (only fitter) look going on. It even looks a bit awkward when he smiles, haha. When it comes down to it, though, who wouldn’t want a body like that, hehe.

Anyway, for the shoot John M. had John Q. wear underwear from both Smuggling Duds and Modus Vivendi, both of which are household brands here at Guys’ Underwear Blog.

Remember, we really liked both the Smuggling Duds boxer briefs as well as as the Modus Vivendi brief that we tried out last year.

Check out www.smugglingduds.com and www.e-modusvivendi.com for more information.

The beach season is here  – well almost.

Our friends over at Modus Vivendi want to wish you all a Happy Gold New Year.

In the philosophy of Ancient Greece, the golden color always was a special one. Golden can roughly be translated as “moderation in all things”. This view is accepted as a basic tenet of most Greek philosophy.

There you go. Who said you can’t be philosophical on a Friday
