David Beckham Bodywear
Beckham’s highly anticipated underwear line for H&M will only be available for purchase starting February 2nd, but for many, seeing him in the underwear is more important than seeing it in stores. Here are all the campaign images that’ll be brightening up your morning commute to work (scroll down for gallery). And for those of you who do care about the product itself, I received the tank on Friday, tried it on and am a believer. The first thing I noticed was how soft it felt. Aside from that, the quality feels premium and I appreciate the minimal branding (just a logo on the bottom left-hand corner of the tank) — after all, as excited as people are about Beckham, nobody wants his name plastered all over their drawers, right? And no, I didn’t get paid to write this. I wish I had.

Speaking Of Underwear…
FashionIndie surveyed a group of five male bloggers — myself included – on the best men’s underwear brands and styles out there. Find out what I had to say (and what underwear I wear) here.
