Emporio Armani underwear is firmly established as one of the leading men's underwear brands. Retailers are finding that Armani underwear sales are second to Calvin Klein and catching up. The brand has received a huge popularity boost with David Beckham gracing the sides of buses and Selfridges as the face and body of men's underwear (Christiano Ronaldo and Megan Fox are set to take over in the 2010). Not only has Emporio Armani underwear benefitted from high profile advertising, they also have developed an extensive range that is synonymous with the brands sophisticated Italian styling. In this article I will explain the different ranges within the Armani underwear collection for men and what sets them apart from the other brands.
Emporio Armani has developed a world renowned reputation for elegant Italian styling. The clothing has a well tailored fit that is designed to show off an athletic and healthy physique. The men's underwear collection is deigned with the same ethos. Armani has said that he designs for the athletic sportsmen, which is one of the main reasons he chose David Beckham as the official model. The general style of Armani men's underwear is close fitting, sitting lower on the waist than most other brands. Many of their designs feature a diagonal cutaway leg which offers an elegant and streamline look. One of the most striking features of the Armani men's underwear is the use of the eagle logo, which features prominently on the waistband. They offer the full range of underwear styles including the brief, boxer brief, trunk and boxer short. All men's underwear have a closed fly except for the seasonal stretch cotton trunks that come with an optional button fly.
Emporio Armani, like most other designer brands, has a classic and seasonal collection of men's underwear. The flagship range is the Stretch Cotton, which as the name suggests is made from a 'stretchy cotton' for a tight fit. The trunk has a standard waistband with the logo, whilst the boxer brief and brief have a very wide waistband with large eagle logo. There is also a metallic waistband version of the stretch cotton, which has a more subtle branding that only stands out when it catches the light. The stretch cotton men's underwear is comfortable to wear and has a style that will suit most men, making it an all rounder.
Emporio Armani utilise modern fabric technology to create underwear ranges with particular properties. The micro modal is a refined garment, offering a smoother and softer fabric than standard mercerized cotton. It also is resistant to shrinking and fading. Emporio Armani modal (or micro modal) men's underwear has a higher price point than the stretch cotton range, and has a more subtle design to reflect the sophistication of the garment. Their 100% pure ribbed cotton men's underwear is excellent for everyday use as it is particularly hard wearing. Other fabrics used include stretch bamboo, mesh and polycarbon.
When it comes to their fashionable 'Seasonal' collection of men's underwear, Emporio Armani mainly works with the stretch cotton fabric. Whilst designer brands such as Calvin Klein, Ginch Gonch and Diesel produce some quite outrageous designs with colourful prints, Armani prefer to stick to a more muted colour palette and simple designs (e.g. stripes). Each season they offer a collection of solid colours, a stripe pair of men's underwear, striped band and a sports design. Many of the fashion underwear designs have a snugger fit than the classic stretch cotton collection, with shorter legs in the trunk and lower rise on the waist. - 29871
