So we’re a bit biased \u2013 we think anything David Beckham<\/a> models, kicks or touches turns to gold. But the proof is in the pudding. His name and brand equaled retail gold for Emporio Armani<\/a>. His collaboration with Armani underwear<\/a> pretty much doubled their gross turnover – from 16 million euros\/$22.7 million in 2007 (pre-Beckham) to 31 million euros\/$43.9 million in 2008 (after the Beckham campaign). The soccer star turned businessman has teamed up with partner Simon Fuller <\/strong>(who also manages Victoria Beckham<\/a>), to launch a line of branded men’s<\/a> bodywear, (along with a new men’s fragrance<\/a>, Homme by David Beckham<\/strong>, licensed by Coty Inc.<\/strong>). Beckham and his team have already begun designing the collection, testing the fit and fabrics and merchandise planning. And designing the logo, which features his name with a circular hole to reference a soccer ball or a lens.<\/p>\n

There’s no date set as to when the bodywear collection will be launched, but you can bet that we’re anxiously anticipating those advertisements featuring David Beckham modeling David Beckham bodywear<\/strong>. So we can size it up\u00a0for our men, of course.<\/em><\/p>\n
