If reality TV and reality stars are not your thing, SKIMS is Kim Kardashian’s brainchild. It’s a brand that has effectively redefined the shapewear game, becoming a global sensation in the process. Whether you adore her or resent her, there’s no denying that Kardashian has a Midas touch when it comes to fashion.

Now, as Kardashian takes the plunge into the world of men’s underwear, we’re left with no choice but to sit up, take notice, and appreciate the audacity of this move. In a market historically dominated by boxers, briefs, and the mundane, SKIMS for men is set to disrupt the status quo in a way only a Kardashian can. And you know what? We’re here for it. SKIMS Men offers everything from T-shirts to shapewear designed to flatter, enhance, and elevate everyday essentials. Whether you’re heading to a business meeting, hitting the gym, or just lounging at home, SKIMS Men has got you covered, quite literally.

Our top picks: The SKIMS Men lineup

What’s on the menu, you ask? Well, here’s a sneak peek at our favorite pieces from the much-anticipated SKIMS Men line:

SKIMS Men black boxer briefs

SKIMS Sport men’s 7-inch boxer briefs

The SKIMS Sport men’s 7-inch boxer briefs are crafted with meticulous attention to detail. The longer 7-inch inseam offers additional coverage and support. Engineered for both athletic endeavors and everyday wear, these SKIMS men’s boxers feature a flexible, moisture-wicking fabric that moves with you, keeping you comfortable and dry no matter the activity. With a contoured pouch for optimal support, these are a perfect fit for trips to the gym or everyday wear under your jeans as they won’t bunch up.

SKIMS Men black t-shirt

SKIMS Sport men’s T-shirt

This T-shirt is the epitome of versatility and comfort, making it the ideal choice for an everyday go-to undershirt. Crafted from a premium blend of materials, this T-shirt offers a perfect combination of softness and stretch, ensuring it fits seamlessly under any outfit. With its classic crew-neck design and a relaxed fit, this T-shirt provides all-day comfort and style. While it’s perfect under any outfit, it’s definitely stylish enough to wear alone with a pair of jeans or to the gym. The only downside to this is the price tag, so it will certainly be an investment if you’re used to buying a six-pack of undershirts at Walmart.

SKIMS Sport men’s muscle tank

The SKIMS Sport muscle tank offers a combination of athletic appeal and contemporary fashion. The relaxed fit provides comfort and freedom of movement, making it perfect for workouts or casual wear. Crafted from high-quality, breathable materials, this tank ensures you stay cool and comfortable when you’re pumping iron or jogging on the treadmill. The quick-dry material and sweat-wicking properties make this the perfect shirt for a gym session or a basketball game with the guys, and you won’t be the one with gross armpit stains at the end.

The audacious move: Kim Kardashian’s foray into men’s luxury undergarments

As Kim Kardashian herself aptly put it in her recent interview with GQ, “We’ve never had a bigger request than to launch men’s.” Gone are the days of settling for subpar skivvies; SKIMS Men is here to save us from that sartorial nightmare.

As we delve deeper into the world of SKIMS Men, we can’t help but admire the careful attention to detail. Every piece from this line, whether it’s the cozy loungewear or the sculpting men’s underwear, embodies the essence of luxury. It’s a reminder that your everyday wear should make you feel exceptional, and that’s precisely what the SKIMS Men line offers.

In a true power move — SKIMS Men has become the official underwear partner of the NBA, becoming a part of the game in the most stylish way possible. Basketball players known for their physical prowess and style off the court are choosing SKIMS as their go-to undergarments. It’s a testament to the brand’s quality and the trust it has garnered among athletes.

And being the marketing genius that she is, Kardashian has put out advertisements featuring six-pack abs, smoldering stares, and athletes galore, including Neymar Jr., Nick Bosa, and Shai Gilgeous-Alexander. Let’s just say the new campaign is giving the old-school Calvin Klein ads a run for their money.

Creating a space for innovation at NYMD with Max Esmail
Max Esmail Hero

New York Fashion Week has been a staple in the fashion industry's calendar since World War 2, where designers and brands come together to show off for the press and the buyers who drive the industry's narrative. However, New York Men's Day is much younger as it only appeared in 2014 to showcase young menswear talent looking to break into the industry and take the style world by storm. Essential menswear brands with a story to tell, like Y.Chroma by Max Israel, make splashes in the small space with innovative designs and a goal to implant inspiration in your mind about your style. There were multiple firsts this year, and the Max Esmail NYMD Debut became a space for the creative.
The creative's energy

With the NYC skyline as a backdrop, Max Esmail introduced his Fall and Winter 2025 collection, 55 Bond St. Inspired by his studio; it became a place for creative innovation steeped in an artistic design influenced by modernist architecture and Bauhaus principles. Using leather, marble, and tubular steel, inspired by designers such as Breuer, Kjaerholm, and Mies van der Rohe, Esmail brings sheik minimalist menswear to an ordinarily inaccessible high fashion world of New York Fashion Week. Standouts of the collection are a handful of leather jackets and other outerwear for every moment of your time in blustery New York City and suiting, putting a modern twist on classic silhouettes. While this is a debut for NYMD, a collection like 55 Bond St. looks to the future as a brand ready to spring onto the scene for years to come.

The days may be getting shorter, but that doesn't mean you aren't exhausted at the end of the day. The best way to shake off the effects of a tiring day is to lose the work clothes, be it a suit or a blue-collar uniform, grab an excellent loungewear set, and get comfortable.

There'd also a mindset surrounding the practice. If you remember your childhood, watching Mr. Rogers enter his home and start his monologue, you may remember the first thing he did was remove his suit jacket and don a cardigan. This is about more comfort. This is about creating a separation between work and home. The buffer is valuable to shut your work brain off and start to recover your mental health for tomorrow.
