Paul, a retired school administrator from Indiana, was tired of his wife's complaints. "She kept saying, 'You've got no butt,' " Paul says. "So I thought, 'I'll show you. I'll buy me a butt.' "
Paul searched online for "butt enhancement" and found a panoply of options. Bottoms Up of Toronto not only sells customized briefs with contoured butt pads ($45.99) in three sizes (Fullback, Halfback and Quarterback), but also offers Pouch Pads ($11.99) for men seeking a fuller profile in their crotch.
He found Silicone Body, a San Diego-area company that calls itself "Your One-Stop Booty Shop." After a big success with the Brazilian Butt Enhancer for women, Silicone Body came out with men's briefs with removable foam butt pads. This spring, they introduced the Package Booster, a foam enhancement for front loading, which also fits into the padded briefs ($33.49 online for the full faux monty).
Paul, 63, settled for a pair of briefs and removable butt pads from Butt For You, another Canadian company that as yet doesn't sell crotch enhancers. The fit and the look were right, he says, "so I went ahead and ordered three more pair ($39.95 apiece). My jeans stay up now. And the butt pads help when I ride my motorcycle."
