NewUrbanMale.com Vintage Inspired Tees - Popeye

NewUrbanMale.com continues to bring you our classic range of vintage inspired tees all the way from the United States. This week, we give you a good reason why you should eat your greens- and that reason is Popeye.

The brainchild of Elzie Crisler Segar, Popeye first came into the scene in the Thimble Theatre comic strip on January 17, 1929. The character grew so popular that Popeye eventually took over as the main character from Castor Oyl, Olive Oyl's brother. The cartoon version, on the other hand, made his screen debut in Betty Boop Meets Popeye The Sailor in 1933. That appearance proved such a hit and eventually set the stage for all the Popeye cartoon series that were to follow.

Popeye grew popular for several reasons, but he was more fondly remembered for his greens - SPINACH. Spinach farmers and the residents of Crystal City, Texas in the US were so thankful to Popeye for saving their dying spinach industry that they erected a statue just for him. There was another statute erected in Alma, Arkansas in the US, also because of spinach, because it is home to Allen Canning which markets Popeye-branded canned spinach.

Popeye continues to be popular until today, so popular that his fans organize an annual picnic in Popeye’s hometown – Chester Illinois, USA. The 27th Annual Popeye Picnic, a festival of games and carnival rides, will be held on September 8th all the way to September 10th.


You can show you support for Popeye by attending the Annual Picnic, or you can just grab the series of Popeye vintage inspired tees available at NewUrbanMale.com. We think the latter is much easier, so head on down to our stores and catch the entire range of Popeye vintage inspired tees available at NewUrbanMale.com.

NewUrbanMale.com Sponsors Screening of Happy Berry

NewUrbanMale.com is the probably the first ever fashion label to ever sponsor the Asian Film Symposium and this year at the 6th Asian Film Symposium, NewUrbanMale.com is specifically sponsoring the screening of Happy Berry and hosting its director, Thunska Pansittivorakul for the symposium.

Happy Berry is a documentary showcasing the lives of four Thai youth who run a small but successful fashion label called Happy Berry. They run the small fashion label on their own, complete with a mini-factory that is used to produce their own clothes. Yet, despite that success, they still feel incomplete -simply because of their one unfulfilled wish. The wish to be singers and television celebrities. This movie showcases the lives of these four friends, as it offers a rare peek into the realities of Thai youth culture that is obsessed with fame. Read more about the movie here.

A former playwright/actor and even a former director himself, NewUrbanMale.com Director Shenzi Chua understands the scene very well and this screening sponsorship is NewUrbanMale.com's very own way to give back to the community and the arts scene as a whole.

So don't forget to check out the 6th Asian Film Symposium running from the 9th to 17th September. For more details click here.

Brand Spotlight: Salinas

NewUrbanMale.com is a fashion label for men with good taste and the women we love. And because we love our women so much, our latest store expansion included a women's section that sells the top six Brazilian bikinis.

NewUrbanMale.com is the only male store in Singapore that sells women's bikinis and we think we are probably the only one in the world. And of the top six Brazilian bikini brands, one such bikini brand worth the mention is definitely Salinas.

The bikini of choice for actress Kate Hudson and pop and fashion icon Madonnna, Salinas has been a regular feature at the Sao Paolo Fashion Week. It was also featured in Sports Illustrated's 2006 Swimsuit Edition, where tennis superstar Maria Sharapova was seductively posing in a chic pair of Salinas bikinis.

In Asia, Salinas and NewUrbanMale.com were part of Fashion TV's first ever Fashion TV Beach Awards held in Asia and following that, we put together another fashion show at Singapore's first ever SEXPO, featuring the hottest Brazilian models and the latest Salinas collections. The latest collection, excluisvely available at NewUrbanMale.com, features some of the best Brazilain bikinis in town.


NewUrbanMale.com is the only male store that sells women's bikinis and with our collection of Salinas bikinis, we are probably the best. So much so that we are among the nominees vying for CLEO's Best Swimwear Boutique Award.

Brand Spotlight: aussieBum

NewUrbanMale.com has always been the industry leader in men's fashion and continues to maintain that lead with fashion forward brands such as Mighty Fine, JunkFood, C-IN2, Jabs Waterboys, Erogowear, ZIRH and even David Beckham's and Ewan McGregor's chosen brand - aussieBum.

NewUrbanMale.com was the first to bring the Australian brand to the shores of Asia and has ever since worked together with aussieBum to make it one of Asia's biggest Australian export.

NewUrbanMale.com offers a range of stylish undergear and sports apparel from aussieBum and with a tagline like - "If you doubt yourself, wear something else," aussieBum is truly a brand for the fashion and image conscious male.

aussieBum is also probably the first label in the world to combine minerals with fabrics - the range of aussieBum Essence undergear contains microencapsulated Vitamin C or Ginseng within the fabrics to give the wearer better comfort and wellness (trust us, this is easier than having to constantly remember to eat your vitamins or have your partner nagging you about it all the time).
