National Underwear Day




On Aug. 5 Baskit participated in New York City's National Underwear Day event sponsored by FreshPair.com. On one stage a group of Baskit models showed their playful side, obviously feeling the good energy that comes the way of anyone who dons a pair of Baskit, and on the main stage, Christophe, of Silver Models, showed off his impressive Baskit like nobody's business!

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/

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/

Shaun McCarron Hits the Water in /baskit/

If you like reality TV and you're into the whole model-mania you've probably seen The Janice Dickinson Modeling Agency show on Oxygen. Remember Shaun McCarron and Paul Anderson the gay couple who were breakout stars on the first season? Well, we ended up hanging out with Shaun and now he's set to become a regular baskiteer. (The crowd cheered!)

Anyway...back to us....recently Shaun posed for Florida's 411 Magazine in a pair of our Riviera Blue swim bikinis from our Contrasts Collection. Yep, we make swimwear too...betcha didn't know that did you?

Anyway...back to Shaun....if you happen to see him out and about be sure to compliment him on his baskit. He'll appreciate it. And when you're in Florida and you need a little 411 make sure you check out the http://www.the411mag.com/
