The David Beckham x H&M Swimwear ad campaign shows that the ex-soccer player has branched out from underwear to launch his own line of swimming trunks. Thankfully he decided to go this route instead of pajama onsies, which is not too far off from the briefs he was wearing in the first place. His buff body is the major selling point, after all.

As though embracing a behind-the-scenes theme, one in which Victoria Beckham's husband would be strutting around in nothing more than short swimming trunks between takes. The collection is comprised of three different styles.
