Guys' Underwear Blog

By Valdamar

That’s right, I dropped “Weekly”. Who am I kidding, we all know my punctuality with this report has not been weekly recently. I will do my VERY best to keep you up on the biggest happenings in the underwear world. I promise, I just don’t promise it will happen every week.

This week has been great for us here at the GUB. We released our first original photo, and damn was it hot! I have another shoot with that model on the 20^th, plus I have three other hot models scheduled for shoots this week.

In addition to the amazing undies supplied by AussieBum I just received some great underwear from Skivvies. HOT! Ok enough about that, let’s get to the news:

GUB NEWS:

1,000 LIKES!

We hit one thousand likes on our Facebook page this week! Woo Hoo! And for those of you who haven’t kept up with our Facebook community I promised that if we hit 1,000 likes by Thanksgiving I would post a picture of myself in underwear. So here is one picture. One with my face will be added to Facebook later this week.

At the time that seemed like an almost impossible feat, but you guys did it with over a week to spare! Now I guess I have to live up to my word. So if you want to see it, “like” our face book page and stay tuned! (Above is me with my underwear collection).

Underwear Market Report

Above is a chart showing the trend in underwear sales for 2011. Underwear has long been considered an indicator of how the market is doing. In particularly men’s underwear. The theory is that men only buy new underwear when they have extra money. Of course that doesn’t go for us here. It is good to see the price of cotton has gone down. KEY: Blue-BAL cotton, Red – HBI Hanes, Green WRC Warnaco (Group that includes Calvin Klein), Yellow – LTD Limited Brands (Group that includes Victoria’s Secret), Brown – MFB Maidenform Brands.

Should We Wear Eco-Friendly Underwear?

According to a post on Care2.com, we should consider it. Why? Basically it goes back to cotton, organic versus conventionally grown cotton. Cotton covers 2.5 percent of the world’s cultivated land and uses 16 to 25 percent of the worlds pesticides. Cotton uses more chemical products in production than any other agricultural product. So organic methods can help reduce this pollution. And organic undies can help.

Tebow Underwear Billboard

Jockey is going to put up a billboard in Denver featuring Tim Tebow now that he actually is being used by the Broncos. So what will he be wearing? A pair of jeans, and a baggy T-shirt!!! Sorry but I have to say, WORST UNDERWEAR BILLBOARD EVER! We love you Jockey, but get Tebow in underwear or get a new spokesperson.

Underwear Mayor

Medford, New Jersey Mayor Chris Myers, a Republican, says that he won’t resign, but didn’t deny allegations that he paid for gay sex while visiting California last October.

Nor will he confirm or deny a picture (Above) that appears to be him wearing blue Calvin Klein underwear, which was posted on the gay website Rentboy.com. Good for him!

Hair Rules

A movie entitled “Hair Rules” was shown at the Houston Comedy Film Festival. The movie is about a man, named Bruce, trying to become an underwear model. Well you know Bruce, we would love to have you model for us at the GUB.

UNDERWEAR CRIME:

Underwear Bang Bang

A 20–year-old man wound up sleeping it off at the Barrie police station, in Ontario Canada, Saturday morning (October 22) after he showed up in his underwear at a home around 7:30 a.m. and began banging on the door. The people at the residence didn’t know the man, police say, a student from South River. He was charged with causing a disturbance and has a future court date. Why can’t underwear clad 20 year old come bang on my door?

Legally Required Underwear

David Jones, of the UK, has been sentenced to underwear. He has spent a year in jail of accounts of indecent exposure. He flashed several women in a Alfreton Library. Part of his departing agreement is that he MUST wear underwear when he goes out in public. I wonder if he’s allowed to have a fly front?

Depantsed Burglar

On night in Mesa Arizona a couple came home to find a burglar in their home. The wife spotted the 23 year old man and the husband pursued him. Joshua Randall, the burglar, struck the husband with a bronze candle and even bit off a piece of his ear! Somehow during the struggle Randall lost his pants and had to flee the scene in his underwear. It’s always good to depants any man who enters your home.

Depantsed by Police

Joseph Knight of Tennessee was arrested by the local police. While they were trying to verify his identity he bolted and ran while still handcuffed. A struggle ensued and Knight got away but somehow lost his pants in the mayhem. How did the police get his pants but lose him?

An Ear In Inmates Underwear!

Yes you read that right. A man being processed at a Greek prison had an ear hidden in the crotch of his underwear. He told authorities it was a sheep’s ear and that he normally wore it around his neck but didn’t want it taken from him so he hid it. The authorities can not figure out if it really is a sheep’s ear or a human’s. Wow.

Robbed and left in Underwear

A man, in Walterboro South Carolina, was left standing in his underwear late on Friday night after men reportedly approached him at an intersection and took his shirt, pants and shoes. According to an incident report, the man was walking down the Street when an unknown man in a Buick pulled up beside him and three men jumped out of the car. The victim told investigators the three men surrounded him, pulled a knife and stuck it to his side. They then reportedly demanded he take off all his clothes, well almost all. They also took his wallet containing $235. But at least he kept his underwear.
