Manny Hose
As some companies start peddling girdle-esque, gut-compressing undershirts, a.k.a. Spanx for men, others have launched lines of pantyhose made exclusively for dudes, including Comfilon's ActivSkin legwear. Once a garment of choice for kings and other nobles, men's pantyhose has made a comeback in recent years because of the warmth, support and circulation enhancement they provide. And the trend is even cropping up in high fashion, Givenchy's spring 2010 collection includes some men in tights.
