Savage Mode Activated: HARD NEW YORK x Maxwell Alexander Take Gay Men’s Underwear Deep Into the Woods

There are places where time disappears—where the trees whisper, the lake mirrors your hunger, and the only thing left to confront is your reflection… and your bulge. That’s where artist, activist, and gay fitness model Maxwell Alexander took us for his latest shoot—deep in the woods of Upstate New York, surrounded by nothing but wilderness and raw energy.

Wearing nothing but grit, sweat, and a pair of Savage Mode Boxer Briefs from HARD NEW YORK, Alexander reminds us what real masculinity looks like: confident, carved, and completely unfiltered. It’s not about playing it safe—it’s about having the balls to step outside, unzip expectation, and show the world the power of your package.

Unleash Your Power. Wear the Hunger.

Shot in collaboration with Duncan Avenue Studios, this editorial is a full-on visceral experience. It’s not just gay men’s underwear—it’s a call back to primal instincts. A reminder that deep beneath the city lights, gym mirrors, and Instagram filters, there’s still an animal in every man who dares to show himself.

Designed by Maxwell himself, the Savage Mode boxer briefs aren’t made to hide—they’re made to highlight. With a sculpted, body-hugging fit that lifts and defines, and a wild animal print that screams desire, these are the ultimate underwear for gay men who want to feel seen—and felt. The fabric stretches just right, wrapping every curve and flex, making sure your bulge gets the respect it deserves.

Sleek enough for everyday, strong enough for the wild.
