Trendspotting: Hoodies Are In!

Hoodies are definitely becoming a craze in the fahion world. Hooded jackets are hot becoming a hit in the high fashion streets of Soho in New York.

Hoodies by Billionaire Boys Club (owned by music producer Pharrell Williams and Nigo of A Bathing Ape) are the hottest commodities flying off the shelves on the streets of Soho. These hoodies are so hot that there was a queue to get into the store in the States selling these hoodies. The appeal seems to be the designs that look like "children's wallpaper [going] out of control" says Pharrell.

Hoodies are definitely the trend for 2007 but we know these colorful hoodies are a little tough to swallow in the conservative setting that we are in (that's why we are not carrying any Billionaire Boys Club). But fortunately, NewUrbanMale.com boasts a separate collection of hoodies - without the extravagance as the USD400 per piece Billionaire Boys Club Hoodies.


You can still stay in-vogue with our collection of premium hoodies from the US. These vintage and rugged hoodies (which are definitely less jarring than Pharrell's collection) are available in our NewUrbanMale.com premium stores and will make sure you keep in tandem with the latest hoodie fashion trend. Also available are original licensed vintage inspired hoodies featuring the gang from Peanuts and even Tinkerbell.

With more than 35 international brands in one store, you will definitely keep up-to-date with the latest fashion trends - especially with our collection of hoodies from the US. Grab the full collection at all our NewUrbanMale.com Premium Stores now.

Style File: 5 Reasons Why Vintage Tees Are In This 2007

Vintage inspired tees are definitely in this 2007 and we'll explore 5 reasons why...

1. All the celebrities are ga-ga over them
Paris Hilton, Ashton Kutcher and Jessica Simpson are all crazy about vintage inspired tees. They are caught on camera in the trendiest vintage inspired tees from cult brands like JunkFood, Mighty Fine and Made U Look.


2. Represent Your Era
Be the poster boy for your era. Don't let My Little Pony or Snoopy just die off in history. Bring them back to life and let newer audiences enjoy the magic of these classic characters like Strawberry Shortcakes and Charlie Brown.

3. You Get It Fresh and New
You won't be wearing something that someone else has sweated in. You get the vintage feel and look without the stink. We can't imagine Paris Hilton wearing someone else's stinky old tee can we?

4. It'll Get Your Dates
Vintage inspired tees are excellent ice-breakers. Sneak up to that someone you have been eyeing at the bar and let your tee do the talking. Who wouldn't want to talk about the nostalgic 80s?


5. It's Practical in Our Weather
It's comfortable and its cool. Tees are the best thing to wear in our humid weather. So wear a nostalgic vintage inspired tee to look even better in this weather.

NewUrbanMale.com is the store with the largest collection of vintage inspired apparels in town. With a collection of top cult vintage inspired labels from the US such as david and goliath, JunkFood, Mighty Fine and Made U Look, NewUrbanMale.com is the place to be grab the most "in-vogue" fashion tee in town.

NUM Vintage Inspired Tees - Speedy Gonzales



"Arriba! Arriba! Andale! Andale! Yeehah!"

NewUrbanMale.com is the fashion and lifestyle store with the largest collection of original licensed vintage inspired tees in town and we have brought in the latest and the fastest mouse in town - Speedy Gonzales.

With its large yellow sombrero hat, white shirt and pants and a red ascot, Speedy Gonzales was among the biggest characters in the Looney Tunes family (second only to Bugs Bunny).

Speedy Gonzales was fondly remembered for outsmarting and outrunning Sylvester the Cat and leaving the poor cat in disastrous situations which even included Sylvester swallowing large amounts of hot tobasco sauce.

However Speedy Gonzales' fame was cut short because the charcter was discontinued in 1999 when Cartoon Network bought over his rights. They felt that Speedy and his cartoons were stereotyping the negative notions of the large Hispanic Community in the United States (with scenes featuring his friends as lazy, womanizers and hard drinkers). But thanks to a campaign by fans of Speedy as well as by the League of United Latin American Citizens (who felt that Speedy's cleverness and personality was a positive depiction of Mexicans), Speedy was reinstated on television once again.


And now Speedy even appears on commercials for Volkswagen and at NewUrbanMale.com, Speedy appears on our premium collection of original licensed vintage inspired tees.

Speedy Gonzales is just one of the many original classic characters available at NewUrbanMale.com Premium Stores. So head on down to NewUrbanMale.com and catch the rest of the characters such as Tinkerbell, Charlie Brown, Wonder Woman, Strawberry Shortcakes and many more.

Brand Spotlight: DUGAS Undergear from Tokyo


NewUrbanMale.com is the fashion and lifestyle store for men with good taste and is the first label to bring Japan’s first fashion undergear – DUGAS, to Singapore. Hailing from the world’s capital of innovation - Tokyo, DUGAS undergear expands the already existing premium undergear brands available at NewUrbanMale.com, such as C-IN2, aussieBum and Go Softwear.

Probably Asia’s first fashion and lifestyle undergear label, DUGAS features a colorful and interesting range of undergear that stands out from the rest.

DUGAS undergear is made from a range of fabrics that range from cotton to polyester. The cotton-polyurethane mix (often used in mattresses to prevent the loosening and over-stretching of the fabric) prevents the over-stretching of the undergear, even after frequent wear. While the polyester-polyurethane mix is a high-quality range of stretch material that is comfortable and promises an amazing fit - accentuating the contours of every image conscious male.


Furthermore, every pair of DUGAS is packed in a unique and stylish packaging - a plastic pouch that is designed with vivid and colorful illustrations. Cartoon drawings are used to complement the real-life product shots – bringing the lifestyle aspect of every pair of DUGAS to life, giving it a more high fashion look.

So grab you very own pair of DUGAS, exclusively available at NewUrbanMale.com.
