Underwear Guy Review: Mundo Unico Classic Thong / Brazilian T Thong Designer/Manufacturer: Mundo Unico
Website: www.unicointerior.com
Price: $12.50-$15.00
A follow-up request came in for a review of the Mundo Unico Brazilian T Thong so
here is my take on this now classic design. The last few years Mundo Unico has
branched out from their original line of solid colors and cotton blend underwear
offered in a brief, boxer brief and thong style so it’s kind of interesting to
go back to the classic original style and see how they hold up. As usual, Unico
employs a nicely stretchable and breathable blend of 93% cotton and 7% spandex
for the pouch and back panel material. This fabric blend has a soft touch to it
which is comfortable for all-day wear keeping its original shape throughout a
variety of activities. There are a broad range of colors to choose from in the
classics line including standard black and white as well as bright hues of red,
turquoise, orange, lime-green and yellow. Unico is well-known for using a
non-standard sizing scheme for their underwear lines so just make sure you go
up a size due to the smaller fit and you’ll be fine. The front utilizes the
Unico suspensor pouch which provides a nice amount of lift and support although
keep in mind it is single-layer fabric so modesty could be an issue. The seams
are stitched in a contrasting color which provides a nice design element while
keeping a clean minimalist look.
The back strap in this t-thong is a minimal ¼” which helps
make for a comfortable wearing experience-you won’t really notice the strap
most of the time. The 1” tall waistband with “Unico” text woven along the length
terminates in the back into a fabric panel constructed out of the same material
as the rest of the garment. The back panel is a doubled-over area of fabric
about 8” wide and at its tallest point in the center running 2”. On the
exterior of the back panel is a screen printed Mundo Unico logo and on the
interior of the panel is the material and care information tag (1.5” X 1.3/4”)
sewn flat. Probably the only area of this thong that could use a little
improvement would be the waistband. The Cin-2 and 2xist microfiber waistband
styles are very comfortable with a smooth exterior finish and brushed interior
facing and I think Unico could benefit from similar treatment for their
waistbands. As they currently stands the Unico waistbands are functional but just
a bit rough-feeling by comparison.
The Grades:
Fit:
A
Overall excellent fit (once you size up of course) with a good
length on the strap and a comfortable pouch that does a better than average job of shaping and lifting things in your package. The pouch itself is quite snug and not really the best if you need extra coverage or room so keep that in mind for your own personal fit requirements.
Pouch Fit
Design:
A
The bright colors are fun to wear and
the t-thong styling in the back is particularly commendable for bringing something unique to the market.
Material:
A-
Comfortable and functional, the extra
spandex in the blend helps keep the score high in the material category. Just a
slight hit on the score for the waistband which could be a little thicker and
softer to the touch.
Construction:
A
I own more than a few pairs of Unico
underwear and construction is always top-notch. Good seams and even pattern
cuts on this t-thong reflect good standards of quality in the construction
department.
Overall Grade:
A
Comfort, fit and fashionable while also a very reasonable price running
from around $12 to $15 depending on the retailer makes for a solid overall
score. I would recommend this thong to people who might not normally wear
underwear in this style category as it’s a good introduction to wearing them.
Would I buy another pair? Yes, with the variety of colors, the excellent
price-point and the high quality I would seriously consider another Mundo Unico
thong purchase in the future.

This thong is the most comfortable thong I have ever worn. I paid about 15 for it and it was worth every penny. I don't even feel it when it's on. My only complaint is the colors, my girlfriend says their too feminine. Either way though, I like the feel of it. I recomend this for anyone who wants to try a thong out. Reply to this
