Sex on fire: A Calvin Klein Underwear Retrospective

  • By Men's Folio

Iconic for repackaging men’s briefs as an object of desire, Calvin Klein Underwear celebrates 30 years as the market leader with the all-new Bold campaign. 

Calvin Klein Underwear has stopped traffic, turned heads and caused outrage with some of the most iconic and controversial advertising campaigns featuring the world’s most good-looking men for the past three decades. Since its first advertisement campaign that featured Olympic pole-vaulter Tom Hintnaus in a pair of white briefs on the Greek island, Santorini, Calvin Klein Underwear has never stopped innovating the ideals of this utilitarian undergarment with a highly covetable designer aesthetic. We take a look back at some provocative moments in the brand’s history.
