Phelps Stars in new Louis Vuitton Ad

Now that the London Olympics have come to a close, it's only right that the athletes keep their buzz going.  What better for superstars like Michael Phelps to keep up their spotlight than through starring in ads and endorsements.  This time Phelps branches off from the norm in this new campaign for Louis Vuitton.  The ad may be the start of a new direction for both Phelps and the French fashion house.  Of course we've seen Phelps strip down to his swim suit before, but here he is a little more seductive than usual.  Check out Phelps in all his hunky glory.  

What are your thoughts on this new ad campaign?  Do you want to see more of Phelps or do you just wish he'd go away for a while?

New Brand: teamm8

I'd first like to thank our guest blogger Nick M. from Michigan for finding this new brand. Teamm8 (pronounced "teammate") is a new brand of underwear hailing from Australia. Michal Nicholas, the creator of teamm8, is a Sydney-born singer-songwriter who has worked hard to build his successful dance music career and is now wanting to work in the men's fashion world.

teamm8 undies are sports classic with a fashionista twist inspired by Aussie sporting values of "mateship" and gritty determination fused with European flair. The design is easy and simple and is perfect for all occasions. They are available in two styles: Y-front brief and Y-front trunk. They come in three colors: black, white, and red. They also have a line of briefs called "The Nations" where you can get a pair in support of your favorite team (as long as it's Australia, Great Britain, or the USA). I personally think that these would be perfect wear during the upcoming Olympics in Beijing (they start August 8th); you can show your support of your favorite team while still wearing the appropriate apparel for whatever you may be doing.

Teamm8's creator Michal Nicolas sums up the brand best:
“Busy achievers with their eye on the ball, want easy, fashion options they can rely on to look good all day, everyday – no matter what life throws at them. My vision with teamm8 was to make designer undies accessible and versatile, so you can look great all the time, whether you’re playing sports, at work, or on a date”.
Teamm8 underwear is priced between ~$24 - ~$27 USD. So be sure to check out their store today and support your favorite teamm8!
