underU4men

This store specializes in mens underwear and swimwear, but they also sell sunglasses and shaving accessories. They stay up to date on the latest styles from the biggest designers, so you finally have a way to feel what you are getting instead of just trusting a picture. That being said, you pay for that ability, typically a few more dollars than the garment costs online. It is basically like paying for shipping if you were to order an item online. The problem with underU4men is that they seem to buy the underwear styles right when they are released, so they have to charge you full price even later down the road when the style is on sale on the company’s website. Expect $ 20+ on all underwear, and a bit more than that for swimwear. You can almost always find the same thing online for less.
So if you have to own the latest and greatest in mens underwear and swimwear, this is your place. If you would rather wait a few months to get the same thing online for half off (my personal preference), then this store is of little use, unless you would like to see an item in person before buying it online.
There is a dressing room available for trying on swimwear, but not underwear.

It is smaller then the one in Portland, that makes it much more crowded as they try and fit everything in.

I’ve shopped at this location since they opened on Cap Hill. This store is much smaller than the flagship store in Portland, which is fine; it is what it is.
I’ve downgraded them by two stars because of a recent negative experience with the manager, when making a return — my first in many purchases from Underu4men.
The item I had bought the day before was MUCH too small; it was unwearable. My drawers are full of underwear. I know what size I wear. I also know that some brands run a bit small or large, and have learned to compensate when buying those brands. This item, however, was for a brand that has never required such compensation. (Subsequent searches show that this a common complaint about this particular item.)
I went back to the store to return it for a refund. At first I dealt with the clerk, but a man who I believe to be the manager was standing beside him. After some discussion, he said that he would approve the refund. He made it clear to me that because it was apparent that I had worn the item (yes — that’s how I knew it was too small), he would have to throw it away and eat the loss.
That’s the point at which it became apparent that I was seen, not as a customer to be kept satisfied, but as a blow to profitability. He also said that he could approve the refund «this time», but would not do so in the future. I don’t expect to be asking for another refund, but really? Was he actually chastising me for daring to return an unsatisfactory purchase?
This is not good customer service, and leaves me wondering whether I want to do further business with a company whose motto seems to be, «We don’t stand behind the products we sell.»
UPDATE: I’ve learned that the manager I dealt with was a manager visiting from Portland. Subsequent trips to the Seattle store have been much more pleasant. I’ve upgraded them by one star.

Well the place is fun, they have an okay selection but I think it’s over priced. They do carry good stuff though. Why only three stars? You can often get the same brands with more variety online much cheaper if you really know what’s good in the world of underwear :-) all in all a fun shopping outing though.

This underwear store is so awesome. Because as true underwear lover i can always find what I ‘m looking for there. And staff there is so helpful and knowledgeable about their products. So thank you underU4men for being there.

When I lived in Seattle and even now UnderU is one of my favorite shops. They have so many options to choose from. They don’t just supply underwear they also carry swim suits, shaving materials, socks and t-​shirts. The quality of merchandise they have to offer is very high end. Also the staff was very friendly and well educated with the fabrics of the retail that they carry. I felt well taken care of and confident with my purchase. There should be more stores with this standard of quality and high level of knowledge. I will only buy my underwear from one place and its at UnderU.

Love this store. I often walk in not knowing exactly what I want, but with the help of the staff I am always able to find something that I end up loving. UnderU4Men is definitely my go to place for underwear/​swimwear. Not to mention, it is in one of the neatest areas of Capitol Hill.

I love this store. The staff, albeit often young, are obviously grilled on their knowledge of the product. I know I can always buy the same product cheaper elsewhere, but nothing beats friendly staff who know what they’re talking about when it comes to these products. Underwear is far more complicated than just my Dad’s old BVD’s now, and I like walking into a store that can help me find what I want.
The selection at the Capitol Hill location is packed! There are probably hundreds of other brands they could carry, but I appreciate having a larger selection of the brands I like, than a smaller selection of a hundred brands I’ve never heard of. Although, I’m usually talked into at least one pair from a designer I’ve never heard of. So far, I haven’t disliked anything I’ve bought.

One star… I live in the neighborhood and figured I would check out the store… Upon walking into the store I wasn’t greeted and I was never asked if I needed help. Maybe if the sales associates weren’t spending their time talking about cars they wanted to buy they would have realized there were people in the store looking to spend money. While there might be a large selection I would probably not venture back…

They sell upscale (read, not your average tighty whities) manties, swimwear and socks… among other things. There really isn’t any other place on The Hill to buy this stuff, it’s my go to spot for when I don’t feel like trekking downtown. Everyone is generally very friendly and they have a great selection. Plus, the last time I went there, I checked in via my phone and got a $ 10 off deal! Sweet!

I thought it was a joke when I saw that KatenChris had checked in/​visited here. Boy was I surprised when I walked into Frederick’s of Hollywood for Men. I have to say, I’m not quite prepared to pay some of the prices for the designer manderwear BUT some of the stuff was super comfortable and I will end up buying a swimsuit here when the weather turns. I think 10 lbs from now I should go back…

Super cute, super small space full of under-​things ~just~ for men. Sorry ladies, but don’t you think we have enough lingerie stores catering just to our lady bits?
Anywho — this place is full of top quality things for the dude in your life. Underwear, socks, tanks, etc. The staff is friendly and full of suggestions, and hey! A Unilocal check-​in deal even. Sweet — totally helpful because the goods here will cost you more than down the street at American Apparel. Nice thing is they look about 100 times better.
My guy loves it here, I think he looks great in what he’s purchased here. No complaints.

I’ve been shopping at this store for the past few years — I’m not sure why it took me so long to write a review, but alas, here it is!
Located in the gorgeous, European-​inspired Loveless Building underU4men fits in perfectly: quaint, friendly, & high-​quality.
Their product options are always rotating, & it’s easy to go for one pair but come out with three or four. They have fitness wear, swim, & classic to sexy underwear for any occasion.
My favorite is walking into the store on a chilly day, being greeted by their friendly staff, & looking over to see the fireplace roaring.
Warm, cozy, inviting.

I used to really love Under U4 Men, but as of late their staff (most of whom seem like new faces) and selection has become mediocre at best. It’s too bad, because this used to be my place to go for cute undies. Now I find myself just ordering directly from Aussie Bum for the newest stuff and best prices and to avoid dealing with smug staff.

I enjoyed shopping here — the really friendly people in the store, both behind the register and browsing the goods, were great. You have to love such a specialized boutique, and the great puns in the name and logo; the goods are definitely full retail price, as you might expect.
I came home with a couple of pairs of «bamboo» briefs — they are comfy, but that is really just rayon! My favorite items were the undies with various prosthetic additions.

Whether you’re looking for some micro boxer briefs with «I’m the Milkman!» emblazoned on the tush, or you have slightly more tame tastes, Under U4 Men has got you covered.
I don’t think I’ve seen another shop quite like this one. It’s cute, it’s well-​organized and best of all they have a great selection of mens undies for my skinny svelte hubby in size S. Yay for the 29 inch waist!

This would be like the VS for men !!!
First time i came here i bought a swimsuit and second time a tanning lotion and saw my next swimsuit !
They have a wide selection of underwear and swimsuits, ranging from sexy cool and different, they also carry some tanning, shaving, colognes.
The place is small but well arranged and lit displaying all their stuff you can even try swimsuits I’m not sure about the underwear though.
you’ll be greeted upon arriving and not bothered afterwards.
I’m straight and i like all their selections, just because you are it doesn’t mean you can’t wear great looking undies hehe.
TIP: you’ll never know when you’ll be seen in underwear so why risk it

So, shopping in a place that is extremely inconspicuous can be awkward, but not here. It is so nice to find a place outside of San Francisco that has underpants that are comfy, fun and different. So, not that y’all need to know what’s on under my jeans, but I was able to find a great selection on underpants… for all occasions. The staff was really helpful and not even slightly intrusive.
PS: great sales too. Happen on in. It’ll give you a reason to not go commando.

Well I am kinda blushing, but it’s just underwear.
I do not think too much about clothing and even less thinking about underwear. Until I discovered UnderU4men!
These undies are a big difference from the bulk pack at cost co.
I did not know there is so many styles and fabrics of mens underwear and swimwear.
No, I am not talking about mesh undies or thongs or jock straps… if you got the bod to rock them out, go for it but I am Just talking about briefs and other variations, including boxers.
Here are an example of the underwear that stood out for me:
There are bamboo fabrics that are surprisingly soft. The Bamboo is good material that absorbs sweat as it simultaneously releases vitamins into the skin.
There are briefs that are anatomically correct that gives an extra comfort and support with a «no show pouch or sling» that gives health benefits from keeping certain objects from the body to prevent over heating as it also gives a boost but still lets *eheh* them relax.
It’s summer how about something more breathable? they got you covered at UnderU4men!
They have a selection of mesh and vented undies that are not see through or erotic style that a guy would not be embarrassed to wear.
Most Girlfriends would like to see their Boyfriends out of their raggy worn out boxers and their silk valentines boxers from Target will not cut it than getting into a nice cut brief or boxers, but if your a regular guy like me they probably would not dig the sheer thong. just saying! keep it realistic so I suggest just to get something regular and nice.
If this is your first pair of good undies you will differently feel the difference and will never go back to your bulk pack underwear!
UnderU4men also have hot shave supplies and razors, with a selection of cologne.
Their staff is courteous and knowledgeable and will make any guy that is still shy about buying nice undies feel comfortable by giving friendly customer service to get you into comfortable undies.
So treat yourself to some underwear and swimwear from UnderU4men!

My reason for a ho-​hum 3 star review is entirely speculative, arbitrary, and vain. Just like most gays in Capitol Hill, right? You see, I would have given 4 stars had it not been for the name.
Under U 4 Men? Under Me For What? It’s under you for men. Get it? Wink Wink!
Under Where For Whom? My underwear is not only under me, and for men (as I am a man and I like men), but it’s also on me, around me, but not under me 4 you, but on me 4 me.
1^st and 4most, underwear is for MY meat and 2 veg, not someone else’s, so it should be Under Me. I take my undies seriously and expect a store with a name to match the $ 20 – 35 per pair price range.
It sounds like a conversation between Tiffani and Bryttknee written on a Trapper Keeper in metallic pink paint pens with hearts and squiggles — the retarded version of Clarissa Explains It All, or even worse, a reject vanity plate from that obscure game show «Bumper Stumpers» which was an early 90’s USA network afternoon staple.
Preteen name aside, this place isn’t half bad — because the store does have a lot of great underwear for sale. It is priced slightly more than online shops charge but less than some other in-​the-​flesh shops charge. It’s a good place to visit if you’re a guy who has a serious underwear fetish or a man of very specific tastes. If you’re not that rarified about your budgie smugglers, you could go to Ross (Ross Dress 4 U, I mean Dress 4 Less) and find some, but not all, of the same designer brands for half-​price.
They had an inordinately large selection of swimsuits for early September (my Jewishness says to haggle! haggle!) and they have a large selection of the Aussiebum brand, which is a personal favorite. The clerks were nice, tea-​tree-​oil clean looking twink boys, but there wasn’t much business and therefore 2 of them to 1 of me
(not U).
I wish this place a lot of success, but I don’t know if girlfriends-​with-​imaginations and gay-​guys-​with-​credit-​cards will keep it afloat. So rush now and haggle! haggle! It’s 4 U after all.
