The ability of a luxury menswear underwear company to communicate effectively with men is also a key-determining factor in consumer relations. But effective communication with a target audience does not mean saying that you're the best; in fact, today, many male consumers are seeking a deeper message.

Effective communications involves the broader ability to take into account comfort, style and wearability. If successful in doing so, brands can help consumers feel understood and respected. In short, men want their chosen brands to show interest in them as individuals, not just a part of a larger group. They often have an expectation that a brand will be warm, friendly and take active interest in their personal lives. This may be somewhat challenging to modern day brands that may be more accustomed to maintaining a separation between product development and consumers personal lives.

Nowadays like never before, men readily interject their style conundrums and desires through social media. Interacting with brands behind a digital device has opened up the floodgates to product conversations frequently disclosed online. Such disclosure is a manifestation of the desire to connect with fashion brands on a personal level. Similarly, clever brands will often show concern for the personal and family matters of their target audience. Such concern is not intended to be an intrusion; it is simply a way that brand managers show concern for their customers. This fundamental idea is part of the new cultural script.

The allocation of rewards can be controversial with respect to the men’s underwear business. You see underwear is one of the most personal decisions because (speaking for most of us men) at the end of the day, only people at the sports club or an intimate partner will see what you are wearing. The second reason why underwear gets personal is the obvious; the shape and fabric is very close to your body. Be mindful that different shapes and styles are made for different occasions. Trust me, you do not want to wear boxer while running on the treadmill.

Luxury undergarment and basics brand Tani is setting a new standard in upscale basics and luxury loungewear. Their aim is to create the worlds best and most comfortable undergarments that change the way you think and feel about underwear. To design and create the collections, the brand sources fabrics from around the world that are both rare and newly innovated. They employ unique knitting technologies with goals insight to produce the finest, softest and smoothest fabrics on the market today. Moreover, the quality of its performance is as high as the quality of its feel.

The Silk Cut collection is luxuriously soft and lightweight, yet extraordinarily resilient to keep up with whatever the day brings. Tani USA makes the best undershirts and underwear for sweat because they possess impeccable moisture control.  The knit is exclusively made for them in Europe with Micro Modal ® Air fabric, it is actually thinner and even softer than silk. And it is a first in a men’s undershirt material. Despite it’s remarkable soft feel, the brands pieces stretch and recover as it hugs your body in a level of comfort that is exceptional.

Some of the more popular styles are the Wild Silk Warm Thermal Shirt ($55), the Silk cut boxer brief ($35), or the  Silk cut Crew Shirt($55).

I recently had the privilege to speak with founder Adam Dinkes about the true essence of the brand, what are men seeking today in underpinnings and pajamas and why he thinks the greatest quarterback in the history of the NFL, Tom Brady, is right for his brand!

Joseph DeAcetis: What is the true essence and history of your brand?

Adam Dinkes: Tani came about to address the need for a category leader with a better, more comfortable, higher-quality, luxurious and innovative offering in the men’s underwear market in the US. 

 

The category is dominated by the mass-market brands who’s strategy is low cost. With no innovation and a cost-cutting strategy, underwear simply became uncomfortable. The essence of Tani USA is to set a new standard in men's underwear.  To design what we believe is the most comfortable, most innovative luxurious underwear for men. Tani has a modern sensibility, uses the most eco-friendly advanced fabrics and better quality materials to make underwear that is so comfortable, you can’t even feel it.
