About Men's Lingerie

Pajama Sets

Pajama sets feature a shirt and either a pair of shorts or pants. Matching pajama sets are a comfortable, stylish option for men. PJs are available in many fabrics, including:

• Flannel
• Cotton
• Denim
• Silk
• Satin
• Chamois
• Leather

Flannel pajamas are an excellent choice on frosty winter days. Silk or satin, on the other hand, bring a touch of cool sophistication to hot summer evenings. Pajamas do not have to be relegated to bedtime; many styles and designs are classy enough to be worn as lounge wear.

Long Johns

Long johns, or thermal underwear, generally cover a man from neck to ankle. They feature long-sleeved shirts and long pants. Both are skintight, so a man has to be perfectly comfortable with his body to wear long johns in front of someone else! While generally thought of as lumberjack wear or winter attire, long johns have come a long way in recent years. Today's long johns are available in a wide variety of patterns and materials, including silk.

Night Shirts

Night shirts are long, loose shirts used for sleeping. Yes, kind of like a nightgown. Suffice it to say, the night shirt is not popular with all men. However, for the few brave souls who dare to try them, night shirts are a comfortable choice.

Robes

Robes for men are available in any length, from mid-thigh to ankle. They are also offered in many different fabrics:

• Terry cloth robes are great for after-shower wear or early morning lounging. A practical material, terry cloth is best suited for times when comfort is the priority.
• Flannel robes help maintain body heat, and are perfect for chilly winter evenings.
• Fleece robes are even softer and thicker than flannel, and provide exceptional warmth during cold times.
• Silk or satin robes, on the other hand, are the height of sensuality. They are best suited for times when candlelight and body oils are on the agenda!

Robes can be used as a cover-up over pajamas or a night shirt, or they can be the main attraction. For a sexy, masculine look, try a short silk robe over matching or complementary silk boxers.

• Shape-enhancing boxer briefs
• Shape-enhancing pocket thong
• Padded butt brief

Novelty

Some men prefer feminine lingerie styles.

What many do not realize about men's lingerie, is that it can be just as fun and sexy as women's lingerie. There are several types of novelty underwear available for the times that a man just wants to let loose and go a little wild. Night time fashion can be as wild or as mild as you like, depending on personality and mood.

Fun Prints

For a mild touch of fun in the bedroom, try a novelty print. You can find basic boxers and briefs in many zany designs, including:

• Animal prints
• Lips
• Racy comments
• Gift wrap
• Holiday designs (stockings, Santa hat, hearts, etc.)
• Cartoons and superheroes

Thongs

Although many think of thongs as women's wear, there are many varieties of the bottom-baring undies available for men, including:

• G-Strings : Like the ones for women, g-strings for men leave the entire rear end exposed. A tiny string stretches across the hips and between the cheeks. A pouch in front provides a bit of coverage.
• Animal designs : These thongs use the typical strip of material in the back and leave the butt exposed. The front, though, is a whole different story! A protruding animal head, much like a mini stuffed animal, is used in place of a pouch. Some popular designs include animals, teddy bears, and snakes.
• See-through pouches : These sexy thongs take exposure to a whole new level! The pouches are made of materials such as mesh, fishnet, or transparent lycra. Very little is left to the imagination with these undies.
• Decorative pouches : Typically made of satin, decorative pouches provide complete frontal coverage. The pouch can be decorated in a variety of ways, including a tuxedo print, camouflage, animal print, and tie-dye.

Conclusion

When most people think about men's lingerie, they think of plain white undies, boxers, or briefs. Men's underwear does not have to be plain or boring, though. It can enhance, it can entice, and it can be fun. Men, and the women who love them, are only limited by their own imaginations.
