There is underwear you simply put on, and then there is underwear that changes the way you carry yourself. Australian label TEAMM8 lands firmly in the second camp with Flaunt, a barely-there collection of bikini briefs, micro thongs and jockstraps designed to make minimal coverage feel like maximum confidence.
The attraction starts with the fabric. A 95% rayon and 5% spandex blend gives Flaunt its soft, fluid hand and close-to-the-body stretch. TEAMM8 pares the construction back even further with an ultra-thin 6 mm waistband or strap, depending on the cut. The result is a second-skin sensation: light against the body, sleek under clothing and visually anything but shy.
Three ways to Flaunt
The Flaunt Bikini Brief is the everyday entry point. Its low-rise shape follows the body without piling on fabric, while the narrow waistband and centered logo patch keep the front clean. In Electric, the sharp blue-and-contrast combination brings an immediate charge; Onyx offers the collection’s quieter, darker option.
The Flaunt Jockstrap shifts the mood. From the front, it has the polish and pouch support of a streamlined brief; from behind, it delivers the lift, exposure and playful attitude that make a jockstrap an after-dark essential. It is the collection’s most direct bridge between comfort and provocation.
Then comes the Flaunt Micro Thong, the least coverage and arguably the clearest statement. Its slim straps meet at a small triangle back, producing a precise silhouette with almost no visible bulk. On the body, the cut is unapologetic—but its softness keeps the experience easy rather than overengineered.
The fit report
What makes Flaunt persuasive is not just the reveal—it is the way the pieces are cut to stay in place. The contoured front supports without feeling heavy, while the stretch fabric follows different builds with less restriction. On larger frames, the brief and jockstrap can create particularly flattering lift and definition.
The important caveat is sizing. TEAMM8 asks shoppers to measure both the lower waist and the fullest part of the hips, although its chart says to choose by lower-waist measurement when the two suggest different sizes. Based on wearer feedback shared with us, men with a fuller backside may prefer to go up one size for more comfortable rear coverage and less tension, even when the waist falls neatly within the chart. Fit preference matters, especially in cuts this minimal.
Comfort with intent
Flaunt feels made for the days when confidence needs to begin with the first layer. The material is soft enough for extended wear, and the minimal construction helps it disappear beneath close-fitting trousers or shorts. The bolder colors, however, deserve to be seen—whether that means an intentional waistband reveal, a private look or a full editorial moment.
Although the pieces can bring swim-brief energy to a poolside look or photo shoot, TEAMM8 sells Flaunt as underwear rather than performance swimwear. For actual swimming, choose a suit designed for chlorine, salt water and repeated sun exposure.
For men who want their essentials to feel easy but look unforgettable, Flaunt makes a strong case. It is comfort with a point of view—and proof that the smallest piece in the wardrobe can have the biggest effect on confidence.
