And Now: Really, Really Tighty Whities
W Online
By Catherine Hong

Now that it's been established that men across the country are wearing mantyhose, we
feel it is our duty to report that a company based out of Houston has come out with a line
of "high-tech shapewear" for men. Basically, Spanx for guys.

According to the press release, these love-handle supressing tanks and boxer briefs
"secretly smooth your mid-section and hide unflattering bulges." The $78 T-Slim t-shirt
"pulls up your pecs," while the $54 Jimmy brief "boosts your rear." (In addition, the
Jimmy's "relaxing crotch panel lifts and supports to give you a nice package.") Most
intriguing of all is the $38 Bandit Waistband, which is basically an elastic mirdle (man
girdle) with a vaguely outlaw-sounding moniker.

There are oh-so-many more things we could say about this line. But we will just leave
you with the company's girly-sounding name -- Sculptees. Which sounds less like sexy
men's underwear than something cute Sasha Obama would wear clipped onto her
backpack.

As an importer of steel-boned corsets, this is interesting to see.
There are a few corset manufacturers that make corsets for guys.
I wonder if this works better?

I can't seem to keep my corsets in stock (tho I only sell corsets for fems). They always sell out at shows.
