Clever Xuly Classic Brief – A Men’s Underwear Review
August 25, 2010 | 
Author 
I have to say, Clever Underwear creates many sexy designs that really catch my eye. Previously we reviewed the Zimbabue Bikini, Maori Mesh Boxer and Lightening Brief. While I really loved the look and feel of many of Clever’s designs, I have mixed feelings on the Clever Xuly Classic Brief. The Xuly Classic Brief is from Clever’s MicroFiber line of men’s underwear.
The overall style of the Xuly Classic Brief was quite nice. The pair I tried came in the Grape color. I really liked the look of the geometric pattern and the soft, wide waistband. The width of the side panels are wider than I typically like, though it is a brief, but would say the the contoured pouch and pattern make up for it.
In front, I found the pouch to be very comfortable and supportive. Being a contoured pouch, I found myself very comfortable as a pair of underwear suitable for dailywear. In addition to simply being comfortable, the contoured pouch does provide for a complimentary profile – if you know what I mean. 
In the rear is where my opinion of the brief starts to dwindle. I really liked that the Xuly Classic Brief has a full seat. I didn’t have any problems with riding up throughout the day. My troubles began with the seams. As you can see in the picture, the bottom seam crosses on the bottom of your butt, which felt odd. If you’re generally not bothered by the feeling of seams, than disregard this comment. Other than the butt seam, I loved these briefs.
The fabric is from Clever’s MicroFiber collection and is made from a blend of 93% polyester and 7% spandex. The result of this blend is a soft, stretchy material the stretches to fit your body (and package). It’s really the combo of the material and contoured pouch that made this so comfortable.
Overall, I found these to be a stylish, well-made pair of men’s underwear. The brief cut made these comfortable and the color and pattern made it stylish. My only drawback would be the butt seam.
Several of the online retailers carry this and some have these on sale. If you’re generally not bothered by the feeling of seams, you really can’t go wrong with the Clever Xuly Classic Brief.

Clever Zimbabue Bikini – A Men’s Underwear Review
Guest Review by Eric Layman
Clever Underwear creates many sexy designs within their underwear range - including the previously reviewed Maori Mesh Boxer and Lightening Brief. The Zimbabue Bikini is no exception to Clever’s line of sexy underwear.
The fabric on the Zimbabue Bikini is a cool blend of 91% cotton/9% spandex was soft and breathable. The elastic band sewn with flat seams adds more comfort than normal to the waist than similar styles. Patterned with fun playful colors in an exhilarating design and contrast piping.
In front, the pouch is well designed and provides a comfortable tight support. I would think it would be supportive enough for athletic activities, although I didn’t actually test this.
In back, you’ll find sexy and minimal coverage. They are perfect for an evening with intent of having them seen and showing a little something extra.
For style, I found these a Very HOT cut! The bikini is perfect if you’re looking to show off a bit more skin than a typical brief, great addition to any underwear drawer.
Overall craftsmanship of the Zimbabue Bikini was well made. I can recommend these to you for that special evening out.

Clever Maori Mesh Boxer – A Men’s Underwear Review
Is it wrong to love mesh? I don’t think so – especially when it looks this hot! The Maori Mesh Boxer by Clever is the latest of my Clever reviews. As you may have realized, I have an affinity to mesh underwear; there is just something about having a sneak peak at the prize inside.
With the Maori Mesh Boxer, you are teased a bit by the tattoo pattern (black and flesh colored) obscuring the sheerness of the mesh – a little peek and some imagination goes a long way! The fabric used in these mesh boxers are comprised of 92% nylon and 8% spandex, creating a soft, stretchy mesh material. In combination with the cut of the boxer, the mesh material wraps nicely around your body – highlighting the interesting parts.
The pouch of the Maori Mesh Boxer is contoured to highlight your manhood and comfortably support you. I found the pouch to be very comfortable for all day wearing with enough give to stretch when needed. In the rear, you will find a back seam which highlights your cheeks quite nicely. Always skittish of back seams, I found these to be quite comfortable and didn’t bother me a bit.
On waist and leg bands, I found these to be comfortable. The waistband, about 1.5″ wide, was comfortable and attractive – having Clever logo repeated around the waistband. The leg bands on these mesh boxers worked as they should – keeping the legs in place.All-in-all, a very sexy, comfortable mesh boxer. While I didn’t try it, the Maori Mesh Boxer has a matching shirt for a sexy combo. I loved the look and feel of these mesh boxers and honestly was very comfortable in them all day long. I highly recommend these to all of you – you won’t be disapointed. At approximately $26-33 these are on the higher end of the moderate range; I would say, though, that given the quality of the material, the sexiness of the mesh, and the uniqueness of the pattern, they are well worth the price.

Clever Lightning Brief – Review
The Clever Lightning Brief gets an average score from me. The brief, and really the entire line of Clever Moda, are very stylish. Clever Moda offers a large variety of styles and patterns to suit just about anyone’s taste. For the lightening line, they are available in brief or boxer-brief with a color choice of orange or black/white. It would be easy for me to select just about anyone of their designs and patterns.
Where the lightening brief falls short is in comfort. The brief is made out of 91% cotton and 9% elastane. This does create a reasonably soft material with some give to it. Keeping in mind that everyone has a different body shape, and I don’t have much of a rear end, I did find the rear coverage lacking. Several times throughout the day I had to pull them back out to where they belong. I’d buy them because of the variety of styles and how they look on but would do so knowing I wouldn’t want to wear them on a long day.
RATING SYSTEM: 1=POOR, 3=AVERAGE, 5=SUPERIOR
Overall Rating: 4/5
Worth buying for the cool styles alone
Style: 5/5
Huge variety of designs and colors!
Fabric: 3/5
Typical for Cotton (helps to wash first before wearing to soften them up)
Fit: 3/5
Could use more coverage in the rear
Quality: 5/5
Seem to be put together well – no problems after wash and wear
Size I Wore: L
