Guys, is there any good in-person thong shopping to be had in NYC anymore or has it all moved online?
I’ll be in town in 3 months and would like to pick up some pieces and feel that thrill you get from buying some hot underwear and swimwear in person.
Please shoot me a message or post here with any thoughts and ideas…
Thanks!
BB

Hey BB, There's very little to be found nowadays, and what's there tends to be for tourist shoppers with cheaper quality assortments. You can shop along Christopher Street and Eighth Avenue between 14th and 23rd Streets to find most of these shops. One highlight on Christopher Street that's great and has kept its high standards over the years is http://www.theleatherman.com/ It's fun scene for trying on items and getting consultation from the very attentive staff.

BB This brings back memories. There used to be an underwear store on the upper East side near the Townhouse. This was about 25 - 30 years ago...pre-internet. I would stop in there to purchase a few items when I traveled to NYC. It seemed to be curated for men who liked sexy underwear, but were not the Christopher Street type. Nothing better than a handsome man in a suit with sexy underwear on underneath.

I heard they sold HOM and all sorts of hot sexy gear.

Oh Gazelle! That was the best thong brand....the super thin/stretchy material and design cuts were amazing. Largely responsible for first getting me in to my thong fetish ⭐️⭐️

That was it! I’ve never heard of Gazelle but are there any pics of the product anywhere?

There is something called Gazelle Sport that has assorted swimwear, etc, but definitely NOT the same. The original Gazelle had great Speedo-style briefs, too, but smaller in back and on the sides, and legs cut higher, and with the contour seam pouch to show off a cock. And not lined.

Ah dang…i was born a few years too late for that…such a shame. But there are so many other brands that have popped up recently.
