Jake Joseph Classic Brief: An Xpress Review by Guys’ Underwear Blog

April 23rd, 2011

Jake Joseph is all about quality, comfort and elegance and that shines through in their Classic Brief. This brief takes the long lasting timeless look of the traditional brief and adds a modern sophistication.

The first thing you will notice looking at the brief is the deep masculine and refined black captured in the fabric. Joseph has kept things very simple offering the brief only in black making it a standard classic choice.

The design is your traditional cut with an elastic waistband containing “Jake Joseph” spelled out in a white modern font. One modification the company has made is to the fly. Jockey has their signature “Y” front and others have the diagonal layered fly. But Jake Joseph has the fly designed with two parallel trimmed borders and the right side opening to a little pocket through which you have access to your penis for men who use fly’s for urinating.

The parallel trim looks very slick and makes for a very attractive fly. The front fly also has a slight pouch stitched in the base to better contour your package. However, the material is so soft that it would accomplished that cradling even with out a pouch.

The material is a 95% Bamboo Viscose / 5% elastic which is unbelievably soft, it’s very similar to Andrew Christians “Almost Naked” collection. I love the fact that so many underwear designers are exploring worlds of softer stretchy material, although we will always have a special spot for the cotton classic (with a touch of spandex of course).

They also make a boxer brief and trunk in this same material. Jake Joseph knew what they were saying when they called this one a classic.

The first thing I thought when I received this brief in the mail was “Holy crak-pipe Batman this is soft”, well not exactly, but I was extremely impressed by the fabric. I love the feel it’s a fabric – you must try yourself – it has the comfort of cotton with the sleekness of silk and the elastic quality of spandex. Amazing!

And what I liked about it was that its look is so unassuming. It doesn’t have loud colors, its brand is labeled in the band without a lot of hype or in your face panache, it is just as it’s named; classic and elegant.

The fit is also understated, it fits and supports you, giving you all the comfort you need without a pouch you can hide a basketball in or sides cut so high your butt cheeks keep sliding out, very appropriate for the sophisticated modern man.

I wore the brief all day and I didn’t want to take it off – it was heavenly. I think this brief works in every situation; it’s supportive, it’s comfortable, it’s stylish, it’s sexy and purely male.

It wears well and is durably made, even though the fabric feels kind of delicate it can take a good wear, washes well and keeps on going.

I love it and love you Jake Joseph!
