After officially retiring from football, David Beckham focused on fashion, preparing the release of a new range of Bodywear in collaboration with famous retailer H&M. The 38-year-old just finished the official photo shoot for the improved collection scheduled to hit the streets in February.

The collection had its debut in January, this year’s range being an improvement to the original line. The new Bodywear collection features undergarments, cozy sweatshirts, drawstring pajama bottoms, jerseys, henleys, vests and other clothing articles that feature the former football champion's style, like the famous gray beanies he always wears.

When talking about his brand and his source of inspiration, Beckham believes that staring at passersby helps him get new ideas. “I think people-watching inspires me because you are able to sit in the streets or walk down the street, and see people in different items and get ideas,” the former footballer says, according to DailyMail.

For the photo shoot promoting the collection, David is pictured sitting in a gym changing room made completely out of tiles, wearing just a tight pair of plum-colored trunks with a small black waistband. The former football player shows off his famous physique and heavily tattooed arms.

Beckham confesses that his style is really reflected in the H&M collection, maintaining that casual look he enjoys so much. “I love vintage jeans, great fitting jeans obviously, and T-shirts. I've got a lot of T-shirts, I just love to wear jeans and T-shirts with trainers, so that's kind of everything in my wardrobe really.”

Besides the pictures featuring Beckham in the tiled changing room, the promotional materials for the collection also hold a short advert with the star running around the famous Truman Brewery building in London. While shooting for the advert, Beckham was spotted by fans running around on the top of the building in his briefs.

At the sight of Beckham running around in his underwear, residents of the area took to Twitter to share the news. One user wrote “David Beckham is on the roof of Truman Brewery. Cue all the girls running up onto the roof to catch a glimpse. #PrayForDavid.”
