Bang&Strike — The Guide

PUMP! PLAYROOM
Arriving Soon

Red light, closed blinds, a leather chair and a keyhole view. PUMP!'s new after-dark collection is the boldest thing the brand has shot in years, and it lands at BANG&STRIKE soon.

PUMP! PLAYROOM — campaign

Most PUMP! drops are built around a print or a sport. PLAYROOM is built around a mood. The campaign plays out in a red-lit room: blinds pulled half shut, black leather gloves, a chain-link fence, a chair turned backwards. PUMP!'s own line for it is "made to play", and the collection follows through with more skin, more mesh and, for the first time at BANG&STRIKE, chest harnesses.

The structure is simple: eight styles, four categories, two colourways. A brief, a layered thong, a jockstrap and a harness, each made in Playroom Red and all-black Blackout, so you can wear a full set in one colour or mix them. We've sold men's underwear since 2006 and have been an authorised UK PUMP! stockist since 2010.

Playroom Red

The colourway the whole campaign is lit around: a strong, saturated red with matching red piping and a tonal matte waistband, so nothing breaks up the colour. It is the louder half of PLAYROOM, and the one to pick if you want the set to be seen.

Blackout

The same four styles in all-black mesh with tonal piping and branding. Blackout is the quieter, more versatile half: easier to wear under everyday clothes, and the harness carries a single flash of red in the PUMP! logo across the shoulders.

The Layered Thong: Two Cuts, One Silhouette

The newest shape in PLAYROOM is the layered thong. Instead of a single strip of fabric at the back, a panel of soft cotton overlaps a panel of semi-sheer mesh, so the rear looks different from every angle and shifts as you move. The front stays practical: a cotton pouch for comfort and coverage, a 35 mm matte waistband and elastic piping to keep the outline close.

The Night Call is the black version and the Do Not Disturb the red. If you already wear PUMP! thongs, see our guide to PUMP! thongs for men for how the shapes compare.

The Harness: A New Layer of Attitude

PLAYROOM's harnesses are not buckle-and-strap pieces. They are cropped, curved panels of double-layer mesh that sit across the chest and upper back, closer to a cut-off top than a strap harness, with a contrast PUMP! logo across the shoulders. Pull one on, wear it alone or under an open shirt, and match it to the brief, thong or jockstrap in the same colour.

They are the first harnesses we've stocked, so we've given them their own home: men's harnesses.

What Makes PLAYROOM Different

01
Built as matching sets

Every style comes in Playroom Red and Blackout, so a full head-to-toe set in one colour is always possible.

02
Four categories, eight styles

Briefs, layered thongs, jockstraps and chest harnesses, from full coverage to almost none.

03
Cotton where it counts

Cotton or cotton-lined pouches on every brief, thong and jockstrap, against semi-sheer textured mesh.

04
Tonal, matte finish

35 mm matte waistbands with tone-on-tone PUMP! logos and matching piping keep each colour clean.

05
New shapes for PUMP!

The layered thong and the cropped mesh harness are new silhouettes for the brand.

06
100% genuine

Bought direct from PUMP! by an authorised UK stockist, never through marketplaces.

Sizing & Fit: Does PLAYROOM Run Small?

Like the rest of the PUMP! range, PLAYROOM is cut close to the body by design rather than running small. The stretch mesh adapts well, but if you're between sizes or prefer more room, size up. Measure your waist, not your jeans size.

Size Waist (inches) Waist (cm)
Small 28–30" 71–76cm
Medium 31–32" 79–81cm
Large 33–34" 84–86cm
XL 35–36" 89–91cm

The table covers the briefs, thongs and jockstraps. Harness sizing varies by style, so check each product page. For more detail, see our guide on whether PUMP! underwear runs true to size or the full men's underwear size guide.

How to Buy Genuine PUMP!

Counterfeit PUMP! is common on marketplace platforms such as eBay and third-party Amazon sellers. Those products aren't genuine and won't match the real thing on fabric, fit or durability. Authentic PUMP! has crisp logo branding, soft but structured stretch fabrics and official PUMP! packaging.

PUMP! does not authorise retailers to sell on marketplaces, so a heavily discounted marketplace listing is not an approved seller. BANG&STRIKE has been an authorised UK PUMP! stockist since 2010, buying directly from PUMP! and stocking 100% genuine product only.
