Does Chaos Men deliver what it promises on the outside?
ChaosMen (formerly ChaosInAustin) is now broadcasting from that great beach resort and military town of San Diego. Bryan Ockert, professional photographer is the founder of this site and also shoots for SeanCody - you will notice a similarity in the content. I mean this in a good way - crisp, clear content of tanned jocks or surfer dudes strippin' and jackin' with plenty of close-ups.
Chaos gives a complete tour where you can view all the models in still form (no sample vids) to get an idea if this be the place for you..
What's good about Chaos Men? What needs improvement?
What's good about ChaosMen is content and style, which counts for everything. The guys are eye candy (but please stop shaving their crotches) and captured at their best angles. Both photo gallery and video content were universally crisp, clear, and hi-res. And Chaos knows how to deliver the 3-camera cumshot to perfection - now why can't all sites do it this well? IF YOU'RE A CUMSHOT FANATIC, YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED.
The videos are DRM free (big plus), high-res, but very large (some > 100Meg) and unsegmented. The bonus is that the streaming vids come across "pre-indexed", so you can instantly start clicking around the status bar on the player to move forward in the video. Great for slow connections and the time-constrained (like me). You can also freely download the massive vids, but put that job on overnight cause it'll take a while and your hard drive be filling up fast.
I found the embedded WMV-based video pop-up player somewhat tedious to deal with, in that it launched an almost full-page window, but the video size plays in about a third of the space alloted. You were allowed to right-click, then Zoom to 200% to get an almost-fullscreen experience which retained the status bar, but the convenient "fullscreen" icon on the player gave you fullscreen, but no status bar - so you had no control of what you were watching. This could have easily been fixed by playing the vids in the native WMV player with less fuss.
But content is everything when it comes to porn. We will suffer through little annoyances to get the goods. Right?
How is Chaos Men unique?
Chaosmen is comparable to SeanCody or CorbinFisher in content, style, and quality. As long as Chaos doesn't repeat too many of the models making the rounds and comes up with never-seen models, I think most of us would consider that "unique enuff".
What do paying users recieve for their money?
For around $20 for a monthly membership, you get 66 solo-models or model-couples in high-res photos and videos.
Membership also includes bonus links to 14 categories of monthly AEBN video feeds which are 4 movies a category - however these feeders are the same on other sites which carry them. The AEBN feeds at Chaos are limited to 56K and 225K speeds however (other sites also carry them at 512K), so the feeds are VHS quality at best.

Why is it called Chaos Men? The site is well-organized, easy to navigate, and colorful--so it can't be that. Perhaps it's because the guys are all looney and just do whatever comes to mind? Hardly--the video and photos are well done, the action is well-structured and certainly it's HOT. Read full review

Judging from the pictures and videos in the preview section, this site promises tons of hot men stripping it all off and performing for you. Over 300 photo and video sets, and a number of bonus video feeds. Let me tell you, this site delivers! Read full review

Chaosmen.com promises to ‘disrupt you day’ I was interested to see if this was a good or bad thing, I am happy to report this is very much a good thing. Chaosmen.com is a personal website of porn producer Bryan Ockert and it clearly shows his respect for the members of his website. Chaosmen has a full and open preview section and it certainly does deliver. Read full review

There is just something about photographers capturing real life amateur studs totally buff and comfortable with their bodies that is quite intoxicating. Leading photographer Bryan Ockert offers some of his most gorgeous models on this exlcusive website where you'll find the hunky frat boys that you always dreamed of seeing nude. Since its creation a number of years ago, Chaos Men has increased its model archives quite alot and new features have been added providing semi-hardcore content with real life gay couples and guys who are totally exhibitionists at heart. Just looking at the boys that Ockert brings to his site, you can tell that he is quite fond of natural guys who aren't overly plucked or tweaked and in fact he gives some instructions to his would be models telling them not to wax or pluck their luscious body hair (if they have any) because his members love the natural man, and boy do I agree. These guys are completely hot and its like glimpsing into their bedrooms when you see their pictures and videos. Read full review

ChaosMen, formerly known as ChaosinAustin, signals webmaster Bryan Ockert's current San Diego address and his access to west coast models. Here is a site that reflects the webmaster's skills as a photographer, his fine style and great taste in men in their 20's to 30's. No twinks or daddies here. Read full review

This site offers photos and videos of, supposedly, exclusive models. These models features some twinks but most appear to be a little older. All are very muscular and well-developed men. All of the photos are good, clear pictures and show the model in many poses. It does deliver what it promises. I have no explanation for the site name. My dictionary defines "chaos" as "total disorder or confusion" - I see none of that here. Read full review
