These Jockey Underwear Text You Once a Month To Save Your Life

Before I go any further, no, these Jockey undies aren’t a new level of the surveillance state monitoring your every move. Jacinda doesn’t get a manila folder every month telling her exactly how many days in a row you wore the same pair of undies.

This underwear developed by Jockey is made specifically with saving lives in mind. Simply buy a pair of these so called Remundies (a shortening of the very technical term “reminder undies”) from Farmers and register them online at remundies.co.nz. Now once a month, you’ll get hit up with a text to give you a reminder to have a cheeky check up on the family jewels.

Now don’t drop everything to do this. Check ups are a contact sport best done after a shower while you’re still warm. Simply feel around for anything new or any lumps, and if you’re in any doubt about anything, go see your local GP and they’ll sort you out. Better to be safe than sorry!

This isn’t all just about you either; 10% of the proceeds goes to Testicular Cancer research, benefitting all of manhood-kind.

“Every year 150 men are diagnosed with testicular cancer in New Zealand, but it’s beatable if you find it early… Detection is in your hands,” says Paul Hayes, from Testicular Cancer New Zealand.

Medical Advisor to TCNZ, Consultant Urologist Dr Andrew Williams says, “Testicular Cancer is one of the most treatable forms of cancer if detected early, with a survival rate of 95%, making checking for symptoms on a monthly basis an important part of awareness and education around the disease.”

Not only do these jockeys save lives but (almost as importantly) they look good too!

You can pick up a pair of these bad boys exclusively from Farmers, RRP $32.99. Note that you won’t automatically get an All Black’s physique wearing these, but don’t let that fact kill the dream.
