The show also features the debut active wear collection Chirp, by Bsixtee6.

Mundo Unico will preview its latest collection “Identidad” which hits stores in September 2011. Unico provides fashion for modern active men that seek comfort, sophistication and elegance and are passionate about fashion and look for unique style.

“Identidad (Spanish for identity) is the concept of who you are and what defines you,” said Olga Lucia Oggioni, General Manager of Unico Interior, LLC. “This collection is inspired by the roots and origins of culture and ancient civilizations of the American continent.”

The names of the pieces relate to native Central and South American Indians and their legacy and its earthy colors reflect the vital meaning of soil and nature, the prime elements of life and prosperity.

Frank Dandy, widely known for having the most comfortable microfiber waistband in the industry, will debut its 2012 Spring/Summer Collection of boxers, trunks and swimwear in an array of colors and patterns. The collection celebrates the urban excitement of cities and countries throughout the world.

“I love the excitement that is unique to Miami,” said Kathy Hawkins of Frank Dandy. “Men here are fearless about fashion and they dress to impress.”

From the shores of Rio de Janeiro, boyRio continues to make a splash. The brand will debut its 2012 swimwear collection at SoBe Men’s this year.

“It is the boy from Ipanema who meets the boy next door- fresh, clean, active, vibrant and sexy,” said David Laing of boyRio. “It represents the passion of Rio, its hedonistic nature, the beach, gorgeous people inside and out and a passion for the ‘good’ life.”

Debuting its active wear collection “Chirp,” especially designed for the SoBe Men’s Show, Bsixtee6 is presenting its intricately hand-sewn garments, complete with unique stitching that’s Bohemian, care free, yet incomparably detailed. The collection is full of vinyl, chambray, sheeted cotton and leather fabrics.

“Men want to be attractive; they want to be sexy,” said Briian Dargon, the designer behind Chirp. “This show embraces all of that!”

Last month Sobe Men’s Show held it’s Summer fashion show. It showcases the hottest mens underwear around. They do these two times a year. Usually in January/February and then in July. We were lucky enough to be a sponsor and one of our friends was a model in the show!

If you are a long time fan you know about William Price. He’ been in our guides and on the site through NorCalBodz. This was his first runway show. We think he’s pretty awesome and a good friend to us here at UNB.

Here is what he had to say:

This was my first runway or fashion show of any kind. It took place on South Beach Miami on July 14, 2010. Over all it was a great experience it was a little nerve racking to begin with never having done runway. There were many photographers and fashion enthusiasts present and the crowd was a little louder and vocal than I expected. Being in outside in the middle of July and in South Florida, to say it was hot was an understatement. The show was very well run and put together. The designers worn were Frank Dandy, Unico, and Undergear. I would say that  Unico was my favorite brand there as they are already one of my favorites I love the way they fit, look and their materials used are always soft with cool designs. I look forward to doing more runway and fashion shows and I want to thank Apllo GT for the Opportunity. You can see more pic’s form the show in this months (August) print of his magazine. The video can also be found on You Tube if you search under SoBe Men‘s Show 2010. Also look for me shortly on All American Guys (AAG) and North American Bodies (NAB).

We hope you enjoy the pics here and will bring you more as brief distractions as well!
