Men Sharing Clothes 11 - Olive Underwear

My search for examples of sexy olive underwear turned up a previously unnoticed example for my 'men sharing...' series where hunks are asked to pose in underwear previously used by other models.
Roddy, who I featured in a previous post is joined here by Brodie and Darwin in identical underpants.
.
Darwin
First up is Darwin who has the appearance of a chunky bruiser. 
This adds considerable spice to his submission to bondage.
.
Darwin
This legs up 'settee pose' is much favoured at Captured Guys, but it's more exposing than restrictive. Those underpants are being given a really intimate work-out by Darwin's chunky physique. 
Note the colour-toned throw, ladies.

 
Roddy
Next into action is Roddy who's looking very uncomfortable. 
Perhaps he's unhappy about sharing Darwin's underwear.
.
Roddy

 His bedspread may be the dreaded beige but it provides the best backdrop out of these pictures. 
More of Roddy here but check him out at Captured Guys.

 
Brodie
 Brodie is not only cute, he has the happy knack of looking as though he might burst into tears at any moment. The underpants here show definite signs of having been worn by someone else with a bigger backside. How do you persuade a model to do that?

Brodie is 'captured' here by BareFootBound in a veritable spiders web of cord which could get quite a lot more uncomfortable with time. As far as I know it is not the same studio as Captured Guys (the source of my other 'men sharing' in this post) but I believe there are connections, making the apparent sharing of underwear resources rather intriguing. More of Brodie here

Hunks in Olives

Hard Labour


The erotic symbolism is none too subtle in this picture, but this guy would look great (and equally unruffled) in a black plastic bag. The picture illustrates the point I made last time about colour balance and exposures. The detailing of the jacket folds is crystal clear and I don't imagine I need to point out that the transparent quality of his (olive) briefs is well captured as well. In comparison his hair is just a black blob with no detail visible while his lighter-coloured boots are slightly over-exposed, the white seams starting to glare. You've probably been frustrated by the same effect when white jocks are photographed on dark skinned men and all the ribbing and texture 'glares out'.

Bend Over!

Hunky Edu Boxer bends over for us looking very masculine and comfortable in the classic olive brief and leaving us wishing for a little more exposure (and less severe cropping).

Hands Up!

Rusty Joiner's 'hands up' pose would suggest a POW scenario to me were it not for the intensely modern tailoring of his underwear. I've never quite understood what estate agents mean when they describe a property as 'deceptively spacious' but it might well apply to this little number. At first sight the broad waistband and overall proportions suggest Rusty is wearing ordinary underwear but if you check out the amount of tasty abdomen visible above the waistband you can see they are very skimpy indeed. A tight fit as well, the sprayed on look certainly attracts the eyes and sticky fingers but there ain't much room in that pouch. The seaming, shaped like an upward pointing arrow-head, is actually squashing every thing firmly together inside and is symbolically chopped off at the pointed end by the waistband. Ouch! Poor Rusty is undergoing a bizarre chastity punishment here - which certainly explains the attractive pleading look on his face.

Worn Out

No such problem here as another imaginary POW ponders his plumped-up pants after a hard day's slaving for his sadistic captors. One might wish for a little less 'faithfully-captured ribbing' and a little more of the transparency from our first labourer here but there's still plenty to get your teeth into.

Billy being tied up in Baggies



Billy from BareFootBound gets himself tied up. It's a totally erotic procedure for me. 
His arms are bent upwards giving an unrestricted view of his bottom. 
This slightly unnatural position suggests a degree of pressure is already being applied. 


His olive trunks are not a tight fit but still show his buttocks to good effect. 
The dust/staining on them suggests they've had plenty of hard use as working clothes.
 It may be that he didn't come out in them this morning, expecting to end up posing in them!
or perhaps he doesn't wear undies and the photographer's dusting rag has been pressed into service. 



Billy tests his wrist ties which look pretty substantial. His captor has also gagged him with neat white tape just to show who's in charge. Billy's hair is the classic military cut and the colour of his underwear also has army associations suggesting he has a degree of hardness and experience. 
The 'cut' of the pants shows off his fine thighs in this picture and the loose fit of the lower hem around his buttock positively invites further inspection.



I love the frightened rabbit look! Perhaps the gag was an unexpected development and he's wondering what other surprises might be in store. Well it's too late now to change his mind!
 Although Billy has a boyish face one can also imagine him as the 'leader of the gang'. 
He acquires tattoos in later pictures, not to mention some seriously sculpted muscles
 but this smoother, unspoilt body will appeal to lovers of innocence and purity. 
The opening in his trunks gapes enticingly.

The bondage master further demonstrates his control by turning Billy over onto his face and lifting his feet. This isn't strictly necessary for the tying of his ankles but it removes the process from Billy's view and makes it harder for him to pull his legs away. By deliberately positioning him like this, it is made clear to him that he is no longer simply 'allowing' himself to be tied up.

In this shot, the underpants form a beautiful array of curves and shadowing, giving bulk and shape to the body. I have a bit of a thing about the colour olive, but one it's virtues is that creases and other detail show up clearly in photographs. The mid-tone balances the skin colour so it gets the right exposure to show all this detail. In comparison, white trunks tend to glare while darker ones become a featureless blob. 



Billy is repositioned on the bed, which speaks for itself in terms of who is in control. 
It creates a nice, symbolic, curving line through his body into the hands of his tormentor. 
  
The twist of his body exposes a selection of highly-touchable, undefended, body areas. Thanks to the colour balancing, we can see clearly the subtle shading defining the sides of his abs, the tuck of material between his legs, the hair on his thighs and calves and so on. You can see what look like bleached areas on the underpants, suggesting a great deal of washing or perhaps it's some other sort of dried fluid, in which case let's hope it was Billy's own and not some other user's.



 The pure white ropes wound round Billy's chest pin his arms tight and provide an anchorage for the hog-tie, making a beautiful finishing touch as his captor contemplates his next move.
Billy wonders.
.
The crisp detail of the briefs in this image underlines the point about colour balance.
You may not be excited by the jumble of loose fabric in Billy's crotch
 but you can see that something is trying to push out of the fly opening.
Left hand down a bit, I predict.

Olive Patterns

Camouflage Underwear
I must say I do wonder about the logic of putting camouflage pattern on underpants. As you can see here, it renders the contents pretty much invisible - just as you would expect. Even the wearer seems perplexed about it - unless he's simply wondering where the rest of the uniform went. The intense colour emphasises the curves of the garment round his body. It also draws the eye in to the functional ribbing making him look inappropriately dressed - sexy! At the same time the earthy tone plays to his skin colour and body hair accentuating his masculinity.


Daisy Pattern Underwear
The second image is less overtly sexual in intent but it's arguably more effective. It shows a completely different type of man wearing a frivolous daisy pattern brief. It has no military overtones or butch associations. But the effect of the colour is the same, attracting the eye and flattering the model's bulk and curves. It seems to work particularly well on smooth fitting fabric like this, making you want to linger and touch him.

Cheeky Underwear
The final picture isn't a pattern (and not quite olive either) but I just wanted to post these fabulous cheeky curves! I know it's a fashion colour but the diabolical brown vest seems to demonstrate quite conclusively that earthy tones are not intrinsicaly sexy. However, I give the photographer 10 out of 10 for pairing the V-shape of the model's hairline with the hemline on his underpants. If he'd ditched the vest and used true olive briefs this picture would have been so sweet.

Men in olive jocks

When I was an impressionable teenager, an older man I worked with casually mentioned in conversation that, during his army service, all the men wore army issue jockstraps under their uniforms. Quite why he told me this was a mystery and I didn't delve any deeper (so to speak), but to a lad who imagined every man wore white 'Y-fronts' under his trousers it was a very sexy revelation conjuring up all sorts of erotic barrack room images. So olive jock straps are an essential ingredient of these articles about my olive underwear fetish.


This soldier undressing demonstrates the effect of the color against darker skin. The bum hugging straps and sagging trousers draw attention to his dark cleft.


It would be nice to image a barracks full of muscular men dressed like this none of these is a genuine military image. The sweat stained waistband is a pleasant distraction but the tightly stuffed pouch suggests a whole new dimension to army discipline.


Jocks seem to suit big men best, the heavy duty coiled rope seems entirely appropriate for this beast. The military connection is less evident here but the colour still works.


A man undressing is so sexy.

Roddy in Olive Green Underwear


Roddy from Captured Guys is my second exhibit on the seductive appeal of Olive underwear. A tough guy securely tied up for close inspection.


Roddy's 'ginger' skin pigmentation couldn't be more different to Kim's in the last post and yet the green looks great on him too. Love the curves.

His haircut and tattoos accomodate the imaginary military connection although not the heavy chin growth seen here.


Great bondage picture, I just wish the gag toned in!


Hang on Roddy, I'm coming! (Whether you like it or not.)
.
Thanks to Captured Guys for the images, 
it's compulsory viewing for sexy men in bondage (no I don't get commission!)

Olive Green Underwear

A couple of posts back, talking of 'Alex', I mentioned my fascination for men wearing olive green underwear and swimming trunks. These pictures of Kim Garvin from 'Men of Advocate Men' some years back probably started it all. The colour complements his skin tone beautifully but it also helps that he's packing a mighty bulge here. The flimsy, straining material scarcely disguises it. It's a cute un-intimidating pose but that dangling cord is so..... tantalising.


Once again those green trunks, highlighted by the bright sunlight produce a nice, shapely, highly grab-able package. Kim's short hair is quite military looking and this picture triggered many POW fantasies for me - despite the unlikely idyllic location. The slightly awkward pose suggesting reluctance, resentment even, is most endearing.

Kim's muscular arms (or I should say Garvin's if we're in military mode) were showcased in the first picture (you did notice didn't you?) His torso here shows nice muscle definition, they used to call them ripples. I love the creased skin round his belly button and the smooth curving tummy below.




No awkwardness here. Don't ask me what the light area is at ten o'clock, just fantasise!



More confident teasing from Kim here but he doesn't look inviting exactly!




No trunks in this picture but I'm sure you don't mind. Kim has a nice trim body. But he seems to be shyly trying to hide his face. It gives this beefcake an interesting bit of human character.
