I was just reading Cameron’s (aka Tuffie) Blog, Tuffie’s Rants and Raves. He had this wonderful discussion about t-shirts.
For about a year now, deep V-neck T-shirts have been all the rage in the US. Some hate them, when they should be LOVED! Only to state the obvious, deep V-necks look better when [...]

Tattoos anyone?
I don’t have any tattoos but I do think they can be cool. If you are daring enough, like this guy, (even though he really doesn’t have this tattoo in real life) it can look cool if it flows with your overall style. However, based on placement and actual design, some tattoos [...]

Sun tan lines…super hot or really silly?
It’s summer time and everyone is pouring on the lotion and sizzlin’ in the summer sun to get that bronze skin complexion. Since everyone isn’t bold enough to sun tan naked, people get these killer tan lines. Sometimes when I see someone with a good tan and an extremely white booty I laugh [...]

Wearing old underwear is not sexy
As I am writing this post, some guy is sitting at his computer wearing a pair of underwear he has had for the last 7 years. The elastic in the waistband has lost it’s elasticity, the color is so faded it looks like acid wash, and I’m sure there are probably a few holes.
Wearing [...]

The enduring relationship between fitness and style
Fashion isn’t just about what you wear however, but how you wear it! You could take the exact same clothing and put it on two different men and it could look completely different. No matter what type of clothing it is, the fashions will look better on a man that is in shape than [...]

Are thongs just for strippers?
I love buying new underwear but I never really understood the male thong. I understand woman wear them to hide panty lines. But why should a man wear one?
I totally get the erotic nature of seeing a piece of cloth disappear between two luscious mounds of onion booty but do men really [...]

Too busy to sleep?
“You can sleep when you’re dead” is the popular saying of many busy people.
I don’t know about you, but I don’t sleep much. It’s not like I’m partying all night…which would be kinda awesome. I’m always working and trying to get the label off the ground. I’m tired all day and [...]

The Chinese Connection!
Disco Valante has a manufacturer! This was the hardest obstacle in the development of the company. Language barriers, minimum requirements, lack of craftsmanship, and over pricing of labor were some of the issues that have made my dream a nightmare at times. Being a startup company with limited financial resources isn’t an attractive partner [...]

The urban renewal of men’s shorts
It’s the short shorts, fellas; the short shorts! Think of the 70s and the early 80s. And in 2008, fashion itself would prove that trend has a cycle—it starts and it ends and it goes back again decades after. I know, I know most guys don’t like to show alot of skin. For all you [...]

Getting motivated at the gym
I feel the hardest of part of working out isn’t the actual activity but the mental focus of going and staying concentrated once there. Occasionally, I do feel unmotivated to work out. Being sexy is mentally straining at times.
I put together a list of tips to get you pumped about going to the [...]

Going commando!
Disco Valante is a clothing label featuring men’s underwear and I’m trying to appeal to all men of style and substance. However, there is a group of men I don’t think I can ever sell to…the Commandos.
Going commando, aka free ballin’, is the preferred underwear (or lack of underwear) choice for some more [...]

Disco Valante’s Fitness 101 – The Onion Booty
The definition of an onion booty is an ass that looks so good it makes you want to cry. By a show of hands, who doesn’t want an onion booty? Just as I predicted, everyone wants a plump, round ass. Flat butts aren’t flattering when attempting to fill out a pair [...]

Yellow armpit stains on your white shirts…YUCK!
Despite being the coolest guy you know, I’m going to admit I have this nasty little problem. One of my best friends, Carlos, constantly gives me grief over this. Yellow stains on the underarms of your shirts isn’t just ugly, but it can contribute to the demise of plenty of nice, white summery [...]

Young Indiana Jones and the Selling of the Dirty Undies
I ran across this and had to share this with everyone. Someone put Shia Labeouf’s underwear on eBay. Now that’s desperate! You have to be pretty hard up for cash…$400 exactly. Here’s what the seller wrote:
WIN SCREEN WORN SHIA UNDERWEAR!
PLEASE NOTE: COSTUME IS “AS IS” WHICH INCLUDES MAKEUP STAINS, DIRT; ETC! (Again, these [...]

Is white underwear hot or NOT?
I usually don’t buy white underwear. I like more charisma in my undergarments. Perhaps all those years as a kid and wearing Fruit of the Loom has turned me off the white colored underwear.
Since Disco Valante Clothing is prepping for the fall launch, I want to know if you find white underwear simple yet sexy [...]

Disco Valante in the Arena
Confidence in one’s self is the most important part of being a man. Blazing your own unique path can be met with the scrutiny of others. Doubt is a challenging hurdle when trying to succeed.
As a freshmen in college, I read The Man in the Arena, a speech given by US President Teddy [...]

Disco Valante Clothing is not only about men’s underwear and T’s. It’s about creating stylish men on different levels. Today’s topic of style is on letter writing.
In this day and age, cyber technology has killed the art of letter writing. “Why would anyone write a letter since email is instantaneous?”, you ask. [...]

Look youthful always!
Women have many options to cover up their dark circles and fatigued eyes, but men have a lot more trouble correcting “tired face.” It’s not as easy for a man to camouflage dark circles and puffiness, but there are some ways for men to accomplish it too.
Banish Puffiness
Fluid retention is the cause of puffy eyes [...]

Men of style and substance should know how to drink like a man. Natural Light Beer (Natty Light) may have gotten you through those days as a young teenage boy stealing beers out of dad’s cooler but as a man you need to up you drinking pallet.
