Aussiebum was a fairly quiet underwear operator for many years. Mostly known for their nylon swimwear and basic brief it wasn’t until 2006 that Aussiebum started making more noticeable world-wide waves with it’s Wonderjock. Embracing more non-traditional advertising media like blogs and online video, Aussiebum touted the first “enhancing” underwear for men that lifted and profiled. Of course the novelty and somewhat “taboo” nature of discussing men’s assets in such a way hit the “giggle” factor for local news outlets across the globe and only helped Aussiebum market it’s underwear even further. Today’s review is the Aussiebum Wonderjock in the Red Japan Hipster style. The other country/color options are varied with white, black, red and blue for the primary color and red, white, green, black and blue for the contrast piping and waistbands. There are two different styles for the Wonderjocks including a low-rise hipster/squarecut and a low-rise brief. All Wonderjocks are made from a 100% ribbed cotton that is not as soft as I’d like but manages to be flexible and stretchable for all-day wear. The waistband on the Wonderjocks is about an inch tall and is nicely styled with stitched text to correspond to the nation of choice. The interior of the waistband has a microfiber brushed “fleecing” texture which makes for a very comfortable fit that is true-to-size. The contrast white piping is a nice design element giving a very classic masculine look to these squarecuts. The leg bands, also in a contrasting color are thicker than what you typically find in most underwear design at about ¾”. I felt like the legs were a bit tight on these so be aware of that if you have above average upper leg definition, you may want to try the brief design which doesn’t have the same issue.

Of course to many all those other specifications aren’t nearly as interesting as the Wonderjock pouch design. The front pouch is double-layer material ringed by the contrasting piping which by itself does a certain amount to life and package things together. On the inside of the pouch is a “cup” design made out of the same material as the rest of the underwear. This cup is what pulls your package out from your body and keeps things more tightly packaged which results in a more prominent bulge. The combination of material and design are what contribute to the overall enhancement so many will find they get better shaping results from the Aussiebum Wonderjock than the equivalent results from a standard c-ring. The advantage of the Wonderjock design is that the cup isn’t nearly as restricting or complicated to get into as a regular c-ring like the Andrew Christian and Cin2 versions, or o-ring panels from California Muscle. The end result is enhancing underwear that you can feel very comfortable wearing all day. At most you might feel a slight tugging feeling but other than that you won’t feel anything different in these hipsters than most regular underwear. You will find that your package will stay in place all day through pretty much all activities so no worries about sliding around or “falling out” so to speak. Also advantageous is the fact that you can also choose to not place yourself into the cup and wear them as regular non-enhancing underwear.

The Grades:

Fit:	A	Good overall fit here, the leg bands might be an issue for some but generally speaking I was pleased in this category.
Design:	A+	The variety of color combinations makes for some fun choices but the real reason for the + is the innovative pouch design that is now copied by many other labels because of its success.
Material:	A	The classic ribbed cotton is comfortable and holds up well over time.
Construction:	A	As with all AussieBum underwear I’ve tried to date the construction quality is top notch with all three of my Wonderjocks exhibiting quality stitching, and clean fabric/pattern cuts.
Overall Grade:	A+	I think the design of the Wonderjock is innovative enough to warrant a very high score. It helps that all the other scoring categories are executed with high marks as well and the pricing is very reasonable.
Would I buy another pair? Yes, and I already have bought more Wonderjocks including the brief style in white and blue.

Wear Recommendations:

All-day Wear	Loungewear	Athletic	Sleepwear	Office Wear	Special Occasion	Bedroom Wear

Where To Buy:

AussieBum keeps the Wonderjocks under fairly tight distribution so you will typically only find them in specialty underwear stores in the US like UnderU4men (currently accepting phone orders only) . Otherwise you will need to order direct from the Aussiebum website: Product Page.
