Men have questions when it comes to fashion too so we looked up some great answers from Esquire Magazine. These solutions are perfect for men and women who like to dress their man.
Q- Obama wears his suit without a tie. Can I?

The Arena X-Glide swimsuit has been causing some waves at the latest swim meets. In case you don’t know about this sporting bathing suit, it’s said to be the reason behind Phelps’ loss to Paul Biedermann in the 200-meter freestyle competition in Rome last week.
You won’t be seeing this design at any more meets because Phelps’ said it’s me or the swimsuit.
The X-Glide Swimsuit, which is a full body sport design with zipper in the back, has since been banned from swimming competitions because it gives the swimmers an unfair edge. The swimsuit helps the swimmer float so all they have to do is head towards the finish line.
