Japanese Men Getting Big on Girdles

As Japanese waistlines expand, so is the market for girdles—for men.

A new line of male underwear that flattens the stomach and lifts the hips proved so popular when introduced on a trial basis last month that some stores quickly sold out. “Men are getting so much more fashion conscious these days that they’re starting to pay attention to the lines of their body and their silhouette, just like women,” said a spokeswoman at Triumph International Japan, a leading underwear firm.

Triumph marketed two different types of “long girdle”—one from the navel to the knees, and the other a “hip hugger” version to be worn with low-waisted pants.
