Hide Your Package
April 03, 2013
If you’re a fan of the hit drama, Mad Men, then you know all about Jon Hamm’s character and his dapper ways. But recently it’s been his not-so private parts that have been drawing some scandal of their own. It’s been reported that he was recently asked to wear underwear on set during filming because of his oversized anatomy. In the actor’s defense, those suits from the 1960′s are pretty snug-fitting as was the fashion back then. Most people would consider this a great problem to have but it inspires the question, are men pressured to hide their packages, much like women are encouraged to hide their nipples? In Europe, women are proud to show off their nipples in non-padded bras but not in America. Is it the same with men? Are we becoming more modest or is it only a matter of time before we just let it all hang out?
Women turn to bra styles with light padding or contour/t-shirt bras to achieve a more modest look but what many men don’t know is that they too – have some ‘secret weapons’ of their own. Underwear made from microfiber tends to be more supportive than underwear made of cotton but you’ll still get that lightweight, breathable feel. Guys can also choose underwear with a contour pouch to help tame the
bulge. It may be taboo for some men – but If all else fails – you can also choose to wear a thong to get coverage without having to wear a full pair of underwear.

Men's Underwear Fabric: It Matters
July 09, 2012
If you're a man who craves nothing but comfort in your underwear – it's not just cotton fabric that you should be shopping for. Consider microfiber and performance fabrics.
Yes, microfiber fabrics tend to be synthetic. But, there are also natural materials that have been chemically manipulated to break them down for the purpose of producing a specific type of fabric. Cotton is pliable enough, but even with the introduction of spandex, it can only maintain its shape for so long. Microfiber has the ability to mold to your physique for a perfect fit, and thanks to the material’s quality of stretching in all directions it can acco
mplish this fit without feeling constrictive.
Performance fabrics are microfiber fabrics that have been engineered with sophisticated knitting techniques. The most common feature of performance fabrics are their ability to “wick.” The fabric is made with microscopic channels that draw moisture away from your skin. The moisture is then
evaporated on the surface of the fabric. This keeps you dry, and the evaporation process even creates a cooling effect. “Wicking” performance fabrics have become such a highly prized commodity, many men refuse to wear anything else. What are your
favorite underwear fabrics? The style featured above is the Under Armour UA Elite Boxer.

Pistol Pete Custom Underwear Designs Featured In Magic Mike
July 02, 2012
Okay. I admit it. I'm way too old for him, but I've had a crush on Channing Tatum since seeing him in the movies “The Vow” and “Dear John.” Well, now he's available for MAJOR viewing in the much anticipated Summer move, “Magic Mike” which opened this weekend. What was news to me is that Channing was actually one of those former stripper guys before making it big as an actor… my crush, since learning this, has deflated. But, there is a reason I'm blogging about this, so back to the point.
One of HisRoom's most popular brands — Pistol Pete, was lucky enough
to be selected as the outfitter of the thongs featured in this movie. Pistol Pete
custom-made thongs for the cast in a variety of fabrics and patterns. Costume Designer Christopher Peterson told Glamour Magazine it was a challenge to find great-fitting thongs before they teamed up with Pistol Pete.
Pistol Pete fans can expect to see a collection inspired by “Magic Mike” with many of the same colors, patterns and themes, all in the brand's well-made styles. But, in the meantime, HisRoom has Pistol Pete underwear worth a look.
