Our Creative Director Jason Scarlatti shares his Ten Essentials for living well all autumn long. Ready for the Fall?
(C)reative Director Jason Scarlatti is the driving force behind 2(X)IST's effortless mix of high style-meets-high performance innerwear. For Fall 2011's Collections, the New Yorker's design influences run the gamut from extreme motocross (2(X)IST SPORT) to the Scottish Highlands (PLAID) to vintage cavalry uniforms (MILITARY). Here, Jason shares his own personal inspirations and resources for everyday living:
WARBY PARKER 
The Netflix of stylish-yet-affordable eyewear allows customers to try on frames at home before deciding on a pair. For every pair of glasses sold, Warby Parker provides one to someone in need. "A big heart will always be the best accessory!" (warbyparker.com)
THE RAINES LAW ROOM, NYC 
"Out of all my favorite things for Fall 2011, this is the one I would want to keep secret." Modeled after a speakeasy, this parlor is extremely private. Guests enter through an unmarked door (calling ahead is suggested), but once inside, the intimate interior happily hosts a well-appointed clientele made even happier by expert mixologists ready to mix up lively libations. (raineslawroom.com)
WALK IT OFF 
Usually when someone tells you to "take a hike," it's a bad thing. But for Scarlatti, it's a source of not only exercise but reflection. "I'm not blessed to be as fit as our 2(XI)ST models or nearly as dedicated to the gym, but I've realized that walking it out is good for the mind and the waistline." To that end, he likes to add leisurely weekend strolls along the Hudson River to his weekday commute to and from the office. "That's how I've gotten a lot of clarity on some 2(X)IST designs!"
STATEMENT SHOES 
Scarlatti received a pair of black studded Christian Louboutin loafers as a Best Man gift at close friend (and Creative Director at Playboy) Rebecca Szymczak's wedding. "I tend to dress in monochromatic colors, but these shoes are my perfect way to bring any classic ensemble to a noteworthy statement."
IMPERIAL NO. NINE AT THE MONDRIAN SOHO, NYC 
Scarlatti feels "romanced by the magical atmosphere" of the Benjamin Noriega-Ortiz-designed space inside this new downtown Manhattan hotel. "This is definitely a place where I feel relaxed and open and can let the creative juices flow. You never know what 2(X)IST designs will be inspired here!" (mondriansoho.com)
THE METROPOLITAN ANYWHERE FIREPLACE 
Received as a host gift from visiting out-of-towners, the Metropolitan Fireplace adds a cozy-yet-chic ambiance for the otherwise space-confined. And that's no smoke up your ass, thanks to the Metropolitan's bio-ethanol fuel source that's plumeless, odorless, and ash-free. "Living in Manhattan, odds are you don't have a lot of space, so I never thought I'd have my own fireplace!" (anywherefireplaces.com)
SUPPER CLUB, LOCATIONS WORLDWIDE 
Whether in Los Angeles or London (or any of the four other locales), Scarlatti hungers for Supper Club, an epicurean delight that's a feast not just for the tastebuds but the eyes too. "There is no menu. You tell the servers of any food allergies or preferences, and then you lay in a giant white bed and enjoy the loud music, sexy atmosphere, and the avant-garde show put on by the staff." Avant-Garde, you say? Cut to Scarlatti's last go in Amsterdam, where he watched two "scantily clad females pour cereal all over each other." Got milk? (supperclub.com)
VELVET BLAZERS 
'I'm not sure if it was my obsession with 'The Velveteen Rabbit' or just the luxe, rich depth of the fabric, but there's a distinctive elegance to a velvet blazer." Scarlatti favors the slimmer-fitting variety in jewel tones, whether it's fully kitted out or casually paired with jeans and a 2(X)IST Deep V-Neck Tee. Oh, and "Did I mention everyone will want to pet you?"
CLUB WIT'S END, NYC 
On the last Saturday of each month, New York's Club Wit's End entertains those fond of Old Hollywood Glamour, getting dressed up (as in "Coat and Tie," gentleman), and Jazz. "You will get wrapped up in the elegance and flair of it all. It feel like you went back in time (…or is that just the cocktails?)." (clubwitsend.com)
THE FALL MILITARY COAT 
Crisper temperatures beget proper outerwear and those accustomed to walking (see no.3) need to stay both protected and handsome. "I'm obsessed with the variety of coats from Christopher Bailey (of Burberry Prorsum, see right). From rich colors to small appointments like military stitching, these coats are tops." But Scarlatti keeps it grounded by sourcing from the chains. "As much as I love Burberry, I found a perfectly suitable coat at Uniqlo." (X)

Eat with your eyes and get your daily recommended serving of 2(X)IST with these delectable recommendations.
(A)re your underwear needs being served? 2(X)ISTENCE cooks up a Holiday Style Menu and this feast for your eyes will leave you hungry for more. Portion Control? No such thing. After all, you can never have enough helpings of 2(X)IST.

Mind your manners at the table, and lay these MODAL Loose-Knit Boxers comfortably on your lap. For the main course, a hunk of MILITARY is a prime choice. And this meal is best served with a Red, like these COLOUR Contour Pouch Briefs.

Diced, Chiffonaded, Minced, Matchsticked. Any way you slice it, a COLOUR No-Show Trunk is a cut above. Continue to eat your greens with the SPORT Tank Top, which like any good salad, is very well dressed indeed.

Rolling in the deep pouch of these SPORT No-Show Trunks? Even before you "rise" to the occasion, you're supported and enhanced thanks to an Ultra-Contoured Pouch that leaves the competition dusted (or, rather, floured).

Nothing's worse than a half-baked sock. That's why 2(X)IST Dress Socks are lovably foolproof. Their stylish design is so hot, there's no need to preheat the oven. Plus, its cotton-blend recipe ensures feet will stay nice and toasted.(X)
All styles shown available now at 2XIST.COM.

NEW YEAR. NEW YOU 2012. Get ready to shift gears by making a resolution to look and feel your best in the New Year with 2(X)IST.
(W)here are you headed in 2012? Resolve to keep "out with the old and in with the new" by making choices toward creating a better you in the new year. Whether you're determined to slim down or tone up, rise above or simmer down, or even step out or stay in, 2(X)IST helps you move in the right direction.

Who wouldn't want a promotion? If you're already working our ESSENTIAL collection, crank it up a notch and switch to PIMA. Same familiar fit, but in premium 100% Pima Cotton that makes you feel like the boss.

It's no coincidence that "weight" and "wait" sound the same — It takes patience to take off the pounds healthily and effectively. In the meantime, there's SHAPE:FORM by 2(X)IST, which can help lend the appearance of a slimmer torso and help improve posture.
FROM LEFT TO RIGHT: SHAPE: FORM Slimming Brief in Black; SHAPE: FORM Slimming Tank in White; SHAPE: FORM Slimming Trunk in Nude

There's a world beyond Black and White (and we're not talking about that Grey area, either). Give the color wheel a spin and give an unfamiliar shade or pattern a whirl. New hue? New you.

Whether novice or Ironman, every athlete-to-be needs to light a fire under their ass come wintertime. Start by kitting yourself out with the right gear, and you'll be motivated to feel the burn.
FROM LEFT TO RIGHT: SPORT Tank Top in Active Green; SOCKS No-Show Sport Socks 3-Pack; SPORT Jock Strap in Scotts Red

Sexy is being confident in your own skin. So all that chatter about "moving outside your comfort zone?" A farce. You should be always comfortable, especially in your underwear. Maybe what you do need is a fresh fit of 2(X)IST Briefs to kickstart your new brazen attitude.
FROM LEFT TO RIGHT: SHAPE:LIFT Dual Lifting Brief in Red; MILITARY Sport Brief in Green Camo; SLIQ Brief in Black

Trouble catching your Z's? Why not slip into something more comfortable (and warm) for a more restful slumber. (Plus, it's not just you that needs a rest. Your ripped college tee would like a break too, please.)

Knotty by nature? Make your 2(X)IST SWIM drawstrings behave by learning the ropes on The 2(X)IST SWIM Knot.
(W)hen it comes to tying your 2(X)IST SWIM drawstrings, think "What Would A Sailor Do?". Make like a longshoreman and tie one on quickly but with certainty. After all, you wouldn't want to risk losing your suit bottoms and having your "first mate" out for everyone to see?
The trick is to find a knot that's secure—no "Wardrobe Malfunctions" here—but also easy-access for those all-important bathroom breaks in between swells. Many guys would settle for a standard shoelace-style tie-on, but 2XIST.COM Style Director Jay V. del Rosario suggests an alternative: The 2(X)IST SWIM Knot.
"This is my preferred way to tie drawstrings, since the final knot is compact and sturdy," he says. "In my opinion, a shoelace bow is too juvenile and precious on a man's swimsuit. Plus, wet bunny ears end up lopsided and, well, sad."
Best to hop to it and make your drawstrings shipshape and seaworthy (even if you're more of a pool guy).
THE ESSENTIALS: THE 2(X)IST SWIM KNOT
1) Even out the strings on your swimsuit
2) Tie a Standard Knot, crossing the right end over, then under the left side (just like the start of tying your shoelaces). You may repeat this step for an extra secure knot
3) Grab both ends with one hand, and loop both ends around your other hand's pointer finger
4) Pull both ends through the loop created on your pointer finger, forming a Slip Knot
5) Tighten the Slip Knot so it is secure, and straighten (if necessary)
6) Enjoy (X)

How to solve for (X)? 2(X)IST does the algebra and plugs in the values you need to know for Fall 2012, starting from (A) all the way to (Z)
(F)all is the season of Back to Cool: cooler temperatures and snappier moods, but that doesn't mean your style can't raise a few temperatures. See what's warming up this crisp season with 2(X)IST's (A) to (Z) guide of what's trending (and what you'll be wearing) until winter's chill arrives.

(A) is for (ATHLETIC)
Get ready for the fall in this season's hottest collection: 2(X)IST ATHLETIC. Designed with both the athlete and the aesthete in mind, this handsome line is inspired by vintage Phys. Ed. uniforms but modernized in supple, long-wearing piqued stretch Cotton. It's a win-win all around.
(B) is for (BOXES)
The same care that goes into designing each 2(X)IST garment goes into the box in which it arrived. Maybe that's why 2(X)IST is a perennial winner of the American Graphic Design Awards in Packaging. Now, our boxes feature a clever picture window, so you can see exactly which pair of 2(X)ISTs you're about to step into. Like it? Check (and pick up) all boxes that apply.
(C) is for (CONNECT)
What's the best way to stay abreast of all the latest from 2(X)IST? Connect with us socially, and you'll be on top of all the news like new product releases, promotions, features, and more. Go on and click through and get ready to have it all. Follow Official 2(X)IST on Facebook, Twitter, Google+, and subscribe to our newsletter, The 2(X)IST Briefing.

(D) is for (DUTY)
A perfect gentleman strives to match how good he looks on the outside with what's going on inside. That's one reason why this October, we're offering the opportunity to shop for a cause at 2XIST.COM. Because looking good and feeling great should always be simultaneous. More details soon…
(E) is for (EXTRA VALUE)
Are you getting what you pay for? In the case of our new 2(X)IST Multi-Packs Program, you're actually getting more. We've taken favorite silhouettes, revamped them with new details and exciting colors, and value packed them for an offer you just can't refuse.

(F) is for (FLEX)
As in Soft-Fle(X) Cotton, the supple blended fabric used to create the new STRETCH Collection. Two favorite shapes (plus one bonus silhouette coming soon!) are re-imagined with a comfortable, breathable fit that moves with (and never against) you throughout the day. And, STRETCH is Multi-Packed, so you'll definitely "stretch" your dollar with this Collection.

(G) is for (GOLD)
Watch your style appreciate with 2(X)IST GOLD. Whether you save it for a special occasion or wear it daily, GOLD ups the ante with a luxurious feel on the skin and a gilded waistband. Consider this a good investment for your style portfolio.

(H) is for (HENLEY TANK)
Each season, we create a standout, fashion-forward Tank, and for Fall 2012, the ATHLETIC Henley Tank rises tall. Developed after the success of the previous RESORT and SWIM Henley Tanks, this version boasts a ready-for-the-fall stretch Pique Cotton fabric, regimental stripe taping at the armholes, and a functional button placket.

(I) is for (INSIDER ACCESS)
Nobody else puts you deeper behind-the-scenes than 2XIST.COM. Get ready to go backstage as we take you on set of our Fall/Winter 2012 Campaign and learn all the trade secrets from our team. Plus, don't miss out on exclusive offers and more! All this, coming soon to 2XIST.COM.

(J) is for (JOSH BUTTON)
The 2(X)IST family of (X)-Men grows with our latest face and body, Florida-native Josh Button.

(K) is for (KALEIDOSCOPIC)
Your eyes are not deceiving you—2(X)IST COLOUR is back for Fall 2012! This season, choose either the Contour Pouch Brief or No-Show Trunk in an assortment of optical-pleasing hues like solid Acai Purple and Brilliant Blue, and their patterned cousins Deep Purple Stripe and Aspen Yellow Stripe. Which one catches your eye?

(L) is for (LAYERS)
The first nip in the air is a call for warmth and there's no better way to pick it up than with ESSENTIAL Athletic Shirts. While you may have worn these Tanks as a standalone piece during the Summer months, but these all-Cotton tops are perfect for base layering now under oxfords or sweaters.
(M) is for (MIGUEL IGLESIAS)
Meet our next newest face and body, Miguel Iglesias, who hails from sunny Spain.

(N) is for (NIP/TUCK)
…or rather, just the look of one. Feeling weighty? Gain your confidence back with 2(X)IST SHAPEWEAR, featuring an integrated design which lifts, sculpts, and supports your body for a more streamlined appearance. And the best part? No anesthesia necessary.

(O) is for (ORIGINAL CONTOUR POUCH)
The innovation that made 2(X)IST the industry leader over 20 years ago is still as boosting and supportive as ever! Every piece of 2(X)IST Underwear is built around a contoured pouch, but the Original Contour Pouch still keeps it packin' (so to speak). You'll find an OCP in the new ESSENTIAL Contour Pouch Brief in Active Green (shown above), part of an assorted 3-Pack in our new Multi-Packs Program.
(P) is for PRIMAL
Don't let your animal instincts hibernate just yet. Fall is the perfect time to further shed your inhibitions and migrate towards something, shall we say, wilder. So why not explore your choice of PRIMAL No-Show Brief or Trunk, both with a slinky body and a double-layered snakeprint waistband...

(Q) is for QUICK
When you shop at 2XIST.COM and spend $50 or more, you're automatically eligible for complimentary standard shipping, which gets your 2(X)ISTs to your door in agreeable time. But let's just say you're experiencing an "underwear emergency." For a nominal fee, you can simply upgrade to Ground, Express, or Air. Crisis averted.

(R) is for (RUNWAY)
Get ready for The 2(X)IST Fashion Show, which marks its return to the catwalk this October. This year's event promises to be bigger, brasher, and bolder than last year's affair, and 2XIST.COM has all your coverage on stage, backstage, and for the afterparty. We will see you on the runway!
(S) is for (SPLASH)
Get a preview of our next collection with this sneak peek shot of 2(X)IST SPLASH. Coming soon from 2(X)IST!

(T) is for (TOUCH)
The Brandfan-favorite collection TOUCH gets a seasonal makeover in all-new, punchy colors like Black/Bright Green (shown above) and more! Choose from your favorite fits including TOUCH No-Show Brief, Ultra-Contour Pouch Brief, and No-Show Trunk.

(U) is for (UTILITY)
Here at 2(X)IST, we like to advise Brandfans to cater their underwear to their activity. Take for instance the popular (yet still wildly underrated) Jock Strap. Perfect for strenuous activity, you'll feel kept-in-place thanks to an engineered pouch and rear straps for stability. But also think of it this way: A skimpier-yet-still-supportive option, the Jock means less fabric. Think of that this fall when you're sweating away raking those darn leaves.

(V) is for (VIVID)
2(X)IST keeps the hits coming this season with yet another collection debut: 2(X)IST VIVID. Here, enjoy a sneak peak before it goes live. Coming soon!

(W) is for (WATCHES)
It's about time! Created for the confident, modern man, the forthcoming 2(X)IST WATCHES Collection takes cues from our own heritage in New York City and flash forwards it to the present (and future) with a stunningly architectural watch.

(X) is for (X)TREME
After debuting early last season, 2(X)IST (X)TREME stays on high. But if you want to get down with (X)-TREME, go for it hard. These styles featuring a brazen (X)-treme Contoured Pouch in your choice of Sport Brief (as shown), No-Show Brief, No-Show Trunk, or Jock Strap like to move fast.

(Y) is for (YOUR WISHLIST)
Did you know you can make a Wishlist at 2XIST.COM? Shorthand for "Want It, Need It, Have to Have It Now" List, our Wishlist compiles all the styles you covet until you get yourself into a pair. Build a list then share it via e-mail, so people know exactly what you're craving.

(Z) is for (ZINGERS)
Att 2(X)IST HQ, we like to have some serious fun and always see the humor in any given situation. As summer frivolity ends, it's easy to slip into a studious, stoic mood. But we say keep it light, and suggest you carry the same attitude into your underwear selections. Underwear is something you (hopefully) change daily, so why not try a new silhouette and dare to go there in, say, a Y-Back Thong? How about a crazy color or pattern? Try it, we think you'll like the results. And only you have to know … unless you choose to show it off to that very lucky someone. At the very least you'll both have a good smile about it. (X)
