David Beckham teams with H&M for new Bodywear line

David Beckham

Score another one for soccer star David Beckham. He has sealed a distribution partnership deal with H&M for an undergarment line for men. The products are expeced to be in stores Feb. 2, just in time for Valentine’s Day giving. Coincidence? I think not.

“Over the past year, I’ve been developing my Bodywear range with my team and I’m extremely positive about what we have designed and produced,” said Beckham, 36.

“The final piece in the jigsaw was a retail partner who has the vision and capability to distribute these products globally. In H&M, we have found the perfect partner to collaborate with going forward.”

Beckham seems to be following in his fashionable wife’s footsteps. Victoria Beckham has her own women’s clothing and accessories collection. Both have their own fragrances. And he was the  star of the 2009 fall/winter underwear advertising campaign for Emporio Armani.  Perhaps that’s what ignited Beckham’s interest in an undergarment line.
