Model Interview: Neil

Talk about a beach body!  Neil's got the kind of physique that turns heads on the beach, so he was a shoo-in when we were looking for someone to make our 2007 JM Swimwear really stand out.  He's into fitness in a serious way - more than just a hobby, Neil's going to be in the fitness business for life.  While he might move on from modeling, and spend his time making others look great, we're glad he took time to flash his smile at our camera and give us all a little extra motivation to get in shape for beach season.

How Old? 20Neil Candids

Where do you call home? Toms River, NJ

Thing you miss most about being a kid? Eating whatever I wanted and not having to worry about anything.

Favorite guilty pleasure? I love cookies but being a fitness type model I can't have them, it's tough shooting the underwear around Xmas time but I managed to stay away and show up in great shape.

Your weakness? I'm very shy, so public speaking would definitely top the list.

Favorite Holiday? Christmas, it's the best time of the year and everyone is nicer to one another, except when your doing some last minute shopping, haha, but it's my fav!

How do you take your coffee? I don't - don't like the taste.  My morning boost is straight up caffeine pills and diet Green Tea.
 
Boxers or Briefs? I usually go with the boxers, but i switch it up once in awhile.

Most overused phrase? "…….definitley"

First thought when you wake up in the morning? Gotta make my oatmeal and egg whites.

Country you’d most like to visit? Australia, it seems like a great place to visit, I'm fascinated with the wildlife, and the culture.

What do you want to be when you grow up? I want to be successful in whatever I do, hope to be someone respectable in the fitness business, and just a great husband and father.

Favorite piece of clothing? I like ringer shirts and shorts, I'm always hot - I wear shorts year round.

Where do you go when you need to escape?  I go to the gym where I don't talk to anyone and blast my iPod.

What do you do for fun? Working out is fun for me so I enjoy that, also hanging out with my girlfriend every chance I get.

Niel, your girlfriend's a lucky lady!

2xist Soy and C-IN2 Bamboo at MensUnderwearStore

Sushi’s not the only thing sold with soy anymore. 2xist, one of the hottest underwear brands on the market, has recently launched a line titled “SOY.” Made of 95% Azlon, a synthetic textile fiber composed of natural protein material derived from soy bean, and 5% spandex, this fabric has a feel more luxurious than cashmere and breathes like cotton, creating the ultimate comfort for your skin.   Not only does it look and feel great, Azlon is naturally anti-microbial and provides superior moisture wicking, keeping you fresh and dry all day long.

Soy isn't alone in it's jump into the underwear world – C-IN2’s Bamboo line is made of 95% natural bamboo mesh fabric and 5% spandex.  What’s so great about this bamboo stuff?  The fabric is incredibly light and soft; so comfortable you barely know you’ve got it on.  It’s also anti-microbial and the perforated fabric ensures maximum moisture transmission.  As great as the bamboo fabric is, C-IN2 took innovation one step further by including Trophy Shelf® technology in their new line.  The design features two box pleats sewn into the pouch that provide a lifting profile boost.

Chocloate - the new black

    “What on earth does the color chocolate look like?” 
My grandmother was new to the idea of colors being named after foods.  Named for it’s sumptuous deep color and skin warming tones, chocolate is the new black.  Chocolates range from the deep brown of MalePower’s Rib Cotton line to the rich hues of ManSilk’s silk boxer, pant and robe - we've even got hot new cocoa swimwear from JM Waves.  Think you don’t look good in “brown?”  Add a little chocolate to your wardrobe and you’ll be an instant fan of this year’s tasty escape from basic black.
