The easiest way of finding this shop is to walk along Gough Street and look UP.  There's a window display of mens T-shirts, shorts and sportswear. The entrance to the building is via an alley (there's an arrow under the shop window pointing to the alley).  Take the stairs to the Mezzanine Floor and enter the shop via the glass door.

It's a compact shop, well lit and with an easy layout.  The clothing stock is underwear, jocks, swimwear, shorts, T-shirts and tank tops -  for the in shape gay guy (or guys who want some body conscious street cred). It's not a shop for chubs or fatties or bears. Period.

Best as we can tell, they have three main brands on offer:

• New Urban Male - from Singapore;
• ES - from Barcelona;
• Andrew Christian - from Los Angeles;
• (Then there's also some stuff from Addicted, Marcuse, Modus Vivendi, C-IN2);

Prices are slightly higher than average - we've noticed that about gay clothing shops. Fortunately, the quality ain't bad. FuelMix particuarly liked - and **cough** looks good in **cough** ES and Andrew Christian.

The staff on duty when we dropped in (Friday afternoon) spoke passable English, and knew their product lines. They were helpful on sizing and allowed us to try on a range of stuff without hassling us to buy.

We're not sure why Andrew Christian exhorts its customers to change their underwear every 6 months. We hope it's not a reflection of their quality.  It reminded us of our post on how underwear sales in North America are a reflection of the state of the economy. See what we wrote in The State of My Pouch that was re-published on 29 August 2013. You'll love it.

To our international readers, the staff pointed out that they have a website and they ship worldwide. We had a look. The website is clear and uncomplicated. The photos are sharp and sizings appear easy to find. The currency converter is a useful tool.

We ended up buying a couple of things and will probably drop into this place from time to time.

Did FuelMix mention that he looks good in ES and Andrew Christian.......? Oh.....he did.


The Shopping Bag

A glossy, high resolution, black and white, double sided photograph of a naked hunk. Waaaaaaaaaaaayyyy hotter than the B&W torso shots of Abercrombie & Fitch or Hollister.  It totally attracts attention on the street and knowing glances from those who know..........strut baby, strut, you might make a new friend. We did..........

And the bag totally rocks on the MTR.......heh heh heh heh........women will ogle and pretend not to look, str8 guys will squirm, avert their eyes and then look again, gym jocks will stare, and we swear that one teenager got a boner.  We suspect a whole new generation of young guys going gay just by looking at the shopping bag.

This bag can convert someone faster than 2 Mormon missionaries in their 20s.
