There is a particular kind of confidence that comes from knowing what you're wearing underneath. Not the performative kind — the quiet, grounded kind that comes from a garment that fits exactly right, feels exactly right, and reflects exactly who you are. That's the promise of Justin+Simon, and it's a promise the brand consistently keeps.
At DealByEthan.gay, we've built our collection around brands that understand the gay man's relationship with his underwear — that it's never just functional, never just aesthetic, but always both simultaneously. Justin+Simon sits at the center of that philosophy. Below, we break down the pieces that define the brand and why each one earns its place in a premium wardrobe.
For a broader look at how underwear fits into the larger landscape of gay men's style, our guide to gay men's underwear: LGBTQ+ brands, pride, and beyond is the essential companion read.
Thongs: The Art of Minimalism Done Right
The thong is one of the most misunderstood garments in men's fashion — dismissed by those who haven't worn the right one, and quietly beloved by those who have. The key is construction. A poorly made thong is an exercise in discomfort. A well-made one disappears against your body, eliminating lines, eliminating bulk, and leaving you with nothing but the clean confidence of knowing you're wearing something intentional.
The JUSTIN+SIMON XSJ04 Sling in Black Lace is the latter. The intricate lace construction is both a visual statement and a functional choice — the open weave breathes, the stretch accommodates, and the silhouette flatters without constricting. This is a thong designed for all-day wear, not just for the bedroom. Pair it with anything from our full edit of gay men's G-strings and thongs to build a rotation that covers every occasion.
G-Strings: Fabric as Confidence
If the thong is minimalism, the G-string is its more radical sibling — a garment that commits fully to the idea that less is more, and that the body wearing it is the point. Justin+Simon understands this, and their G-string designs reflect a brand that takes the category seriously.
The JUSTIN+SIMON XSJ02 Classic G-String in Lips is a study in controlled boldness. The vibrant print — a graphic that reads as playful in isolation and confident in context — is executed on a fabric that prioritizes comfort without sacrificing structure. The fit is precise, the waistband sits cleanly, and the overall effect is a piece that feels as good as it looks. This is the G-string for the man who has moved past novelty and into genuine appreciation for the form.
Boxers: The Classic Reimagined
Not every day calls for minimal coverage. Some days call for the kind of relaxed, enveloping comfort that only a well-cut boxer can provide — and Justin+Simon's take on the classic silhouette is worth your attention.
The Justin+Simon Classic Boxer strips the category back to its essentials and executes them flawlessly. The fabric has the kind of smooth stretch that moves with you rather than against you, the waistband sits without digging, and the cut is generous enough for genuine comfort without the shapeless excess that makes lesser boxers feel like an afterthought. This is the boxer for the man who wants to feel put-together even in his most relaxed moments.
Bold Thongs: When Color Becomes a Statement
There is a version of queer fashion that plays it safe, and then there is the version that leans into color, form, and unapologetic visibility. The JUSTIN+SIMON XSJBU02 Bulge Thong in Pink belongs firmly in the second category.
The vibrant pink is not an accent — it is the statement. The bulge-enhancing construction adds a dimension of confidence that goes beyond aesthetics, engineering support and presence into a garment that could easily have been purely decorative. This is Justin+Simon at its most expressive: technically sound, visually fearless, and entirely committed to the idea that underwear should make you feel something.
Why Justin+Simon Belongs in Your Wardrobe
What distinguishes Justin+Simon from the broader market isn't any single piece — it's the consistency of the brand's commitment to the intersection of comfort and self-expression. Every cut is considered. Every fabric choice is deliberate. Every colorway is chosen with the understanding that the man wearing it has a point of view worth supporting.
The full Justin+Simon underwear collection at DealByEthan.gay spans thongs, G-strings, boxers, and beyond — a complete wardrobe solution for the gay man who refuses to treat his most intimate garments as an afterthought. For a deeper look at the brand's design philosophy and full range, our dedicated Justin+Simon brand spotlight covers everything you need to know before you shop.
Underwear is the first thing you put on and the last thing anyone sees. Make it count.
FAQs
What types of men's underwear offer the best all-day support?
Garments with ergonomic pouches, moisture-wicking fabrics, and seamless or minimal-seam construction consistently deliver the best all-day support. Justin+Simon's bulge-enhancing designs are specifically engineered with this in mind.
How do I choose the right size?
Measure the widest part of your hips and cross-reference with the brand's sizing chart. For thongs and G-strings especially, fit at the waistband is the critical variable — it should sit firmly without digging.
What materials should I look for in premium men's underwear?
Modal, bamboo, and high-quality cotton blends offer the best combination of breathability, softness, and stretch. For thongs and G-strings, look for fabrics with a degree of elasticity that allows the garment to move with the body.
Can thongs and G-strings be worn comfortably all day?
Absolutely — when the construction is right. The key is a waistband that doesn't roll, a back strap that sits without shifting, and a front pouch that provides genuine support. Justin+Simon's designs are built for exactly this.
How often should I replace my underwear?
Every 6 to 12 months as a general rule, or when you notice loss of elasticity, fading, or structural wear. Premium pieces like Justin+Simon's, cared for correctly, tend to hold their shape and color significantly longer than fast-fashion alternatives.
What are the care instructions for Justin+Simon underwear?
Cold wash, gentle cycle, and air dry where possible. Avoid high heat in the dryer, which degrades elastic fibers over time. Always check the individual garment label for specific guidance.
