Elementos trunk – an Xpress review from Guys’ Underwear Blog
July 25th, 2010
When I review a certain style, like the Element(o)s brief, the underwear collection in question will often feature other cuts like trunks or boxer briefs. Most times, the different cuts will share key features like the fabric type, waistband, color design, and so on.
Therefore I am introducing a new review concept, an Xpress review. Xpress reviews will build on the extended review of an item from the same collection. The “X” reviews are to the point and will not include the nitty-gritty details that have already been examined in the main collection review.
Case: Xpress review of The Element(o)s trunk
If you haven’t already read the review of the Element(o)s brief, check that out that first to get extended information on the Elementos brand, the fabric, waistband details and so on.
| Feature | Verdict |
| Style and look | Typical boxer brief/trunk look with legs of proper length, ending in the mid-to-upper thigh area. Satisfactory pouch room and back coverage. A modern yet conservatively looking trunk with a discrete waistband for guys who are looking for a pair of no-bullshit basic trunks. |
| Suitable for? | Everyday purposes and all-day wear. The fabric is lightweight, soft and not too tight. Same goes for the waistband. Wear it to work and other casual events. Don’t wear it when excising, and choose a more funky style for date nights. |
| Fit and quality? | An absolutely perfect fit and fabric quality. I wore a size M for a size 32/33 inch waist. No need to size up or down. No muffin effect was experienced. |
| Is the price right? | The Element(o)s trunk is in the basic underwear category. Items in this category should never cost more than US $30. This trunk is priced at $24, which is a fair price for underwear of this fabric and production quality. |
| Best thing about it? | The fabric is made from viscose of Bamboo mixed with Elastane. It feels incredibly soft and more leight than traditional cotton blends – and it’s eco-friendly. |
| Overall grade | ★ ★ ★ ★ ☆
A very satisfactory basic trunk. Other brands offer cheaper alternatives and more color and design options, but Element(o)s has many of them them beat in terms of fabric quality and fit. |

I have to say that Elementos is a great new collection in both mens underwear and mens swimwear. Loving the Brazilian style personally, I think their collection really captured the true fit and style of Brazilian mens wear!!! The tribal design and brazialian type fit (especially for their swimwear) is sexy and hot!

Hi Robert
Thanks for your comment.
Couldn’t agree more :) I was wondering, could you elaborate on what Brazilian type fit means?
