Watch for boxer briefs designed for concealment

A video has surfaced on the Internet (for your convenience we’ve uploaded it as a secure video on BLUtube and embedded it below) of man demonstrating the “benefits” of a design of men’s undershorts that enables concealment of weapons and contraband. the purveyor in this case is specifically selling the notion of concealment. In the video a dialog window even pops up stating, “You should never carry anything dangerous in your pocket boxer briefs! This is for demonstration purposes only. Actually you could fit a GUN in this pocket.”

So now we know what the guy is REALLY selling. But be advised: These briefs are very similar to those designed to accommodate a protective athletic cup, and there are many manufacturers out there in that market. Further, as we saw with the underwear bomber, a marginally-creative individual can fashion their own version of this garment.
