The Baskit Model Search at Detox

Dtox was packed to the walls, the crowd was loud and crazy and the atmosphere in the room was super-charged. And that was before the show even started! 

The incredibly talented Sherry Vine took the stage at 11 pm, started the show with a song, and then the boys took the stage. And did they take the stage. Wow! It was a hot and sweaty frenzy of muscle worship that was hot enough to make sailors blush and grannies drop their panties.

In the first Round, the boys stripped off their shirts, followed by a Round in which they appeared in Baskit Underwear, (and less), and then the ever so tough Question and Answer period. Memories of the disastrous Miss U.S.A. incident were fresh on everyone's mind, but luckily, our boys have a little bit more on the ball than Miss California. They answered the questions with ease and with sexy smiles lighting up the stage.

The Judges, Next Magazine's Brian Moylan; international male model Mark Johnson; HereTV's Josh Rosenzweig; and world famous entertainer Joey Arias, had some tough decisions to make, but in the end, they chose Matheus as the winner.

Look for Matheus, and the other boys, in upcoming editions of Next Magazine and in ads for Baskit Underwear, and of course, watch for our next live event coming to you soon!

Time to hit the water....

It's that time of year...time to hit the beach. Here are a few pics of Luke Richmond in baskit to get you up and going!

Baskit Behind the Scenes

Whenever we do a photoshoot for the collections there is a constant stream of people watching us. It tends to be funny...people trying to sneak a peak when one of the models drops their drawers and puts on a new pair of baskit for the next shot.  This time we decided to make it easier on you so we invited along our friends from MetroVelvet.com to shoot some exclusive video. They did an amazing job of catching the models doing...well, doing their job! So huge thanks to MetroVelvet.com for this video.

We hope this will keep all of you from putting yourselves in dangerous positions to get a look. Enjoy.... baskit!

Baskit Behind the Scenes Video

Scott Herman shows off his baskit

Do you know Scott Herman? If you don't...chances are you soon will. Scott is on this season's Real World -Harlem which, in our humble opinion, is the first interesting season in a long time. Not following the Real World these days? No problem...Scott will surely show up elsewhere soon enough. He's got the perfect blend of brawn and brains which will get him far!

Scott is a good friend and currently a baskit model so you'll be seeing a lot of him over the next month of two if you follow our brand.

Here's a nice pic or two of Scott in our Dip Dye collection which will be release in the Spring and our Japanese Body Art Jock in Cyan available now!

As always....nice baskit!

Summer is Coming!

For most of us in the northern hemisphere Winter is setting in hard and fast. Gone are the days of summer and warm weather. We're covered in snow and sweaters! Ahhh but summer will return again. As a reminder of warm days yet to come....here's Anton in our Lucky 9 swim bikini available next spring! This ought to warm some of you up!

Simply Adam!

Our good friend and fantastic photographer, Ronald Tan recently spent some time with aspiring model Adam Phebus. If you've not seen Adam before...let us be the the first to introduce you to this guy. He's got an amazing look and an absolutely perfect physique....spot on.  

Ron sent us these pics and they were too good to just put in our model file. For more of Ronald's photographic genius check out his website: www.ronaldntan.com

Bruno Rand vs Anton Antipov

Bruno Rand! Anton Antipov!

One of America's best photographers captures one of Mother Russia's hottest sons. 

We've been fortunate enough to work with Bruno Rand on many of our ad campaigns over the past few years. It's one thing to take a great picture... we all get lucky sometimes. It is however, much more than luck when you consistently take great photographs that go beyond just filling the frame. 

Bruno Rand delivers the essence of his subjects and he does it every time he looks through his camera out onto our world. For a better look at Bruno's world visit his blog

In the meantime, a couple of recent shot of Anton Antipov, a sure bet in the modeling world, from a recent baskit campaign.

Better Baskits in Minneapolis/ St. Paul

Big Jim and the Twins got some press recently in Twin Cities-based magazine, Lavender. Nice eye candy and some interesting responses from Eric, the "head baskit maker"at /baskit/. We liked the part about not wanting your underwear to fall down around your ankles..."well not in the morning anyway." In all honesty though... is there a bad time of day for activity that leads to underwear at one's ankles? We can't think of one. Check out the entire article and enjoy all the candy at www.lavendermagazine.com/

Photographer James Nixon captured Beau's spirit for some excellent photos featured in this month's edition of fantasticsmag.com. If you're not familiar with this on-line mecca dedicated to style, culture, fashion and the fabulous personalities that make it happen... well you need to be. Go check it out.... http://www.fantasticsmag.com/ and Beau...nice baskit, fella.

Baskit featured in Genre Magazine- May 2008

It arrived in a bright orange envelope with no return address.....

We get absolute piles of mail every day. Enough to make our seemingly pleasant and probably sweet mail lady hate us with a passion. Anyway, after the regular mail call one of our interns worked through the random (...it arrived in a bright orange envelope with no return address..... remember?) mail and what did appear but a nice shiny copy of Genre Magazine's May issue complete with a spread on /baskit/. If you haven't seen the pictures go buy a copy of May Genre Mag. It's a great read. Huge thanks to the folks at Genre for including us and Rick Day for his great photography. http://www.genremagazine.com/
