Back in August last year, the Models Direct team told all our male models that footballing legend and fashion icon David Beckham teamed up with H&M to launch a new Bodywear Range.

Well, now we can reveal a sneak preview of the range modelled by none other that the man himself.

Beckham’s debut collection, the first of many to come, sees nine key products in their most basic form inspired by pieces from David’s own wardrobe.

There are four styles of underpants – briefs, trunks, boxer briefs and woven boxers; three tops – David’s perfect T-shirt, vest and Henley; and two bodywear styles – pyjama bottoms and long johns.

“Working with a team has always been a key part of my life and I found that to be the same when developing this range,” said David Beckham. “Collectively with my design team we spent time working on the feel, fit and style to ensure the product is not only something I would wear but one which I would be proud to put my name to. I always want to challenge myself and this was such a rewarding experience for me. I’m very happy with the end result and I hope H&M’s male customers will be as excited as I am.”

“The David Beckham Bodywear collection for H&M is full of pieces that men will love,” Ann-Sofie Johansson, H&M’s Head of Design, added. “It’s an amazing debut collection, with so much attention paid to the function and quality of the garments. David Beckham is one of the most respected men in the world today, and I can’t wait to see how the range will grow and evolve in the seasons ahead.”

After 18 months of research and development, the collection will finally be available from 2nd February – just in time for Valentine’s Day!
