Though this may not be the first time VMAN magazine has used the concept of hot crews of [male models](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/luxury-menswear-campaign), their VMAN International Issue takes a new approach at the inventive style.

The 'Model Citizens' portraits feature all different kinds of crews, from [naughty nudist men](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/velvet-heat) to business-minded beefcakes. The VMAN International Issue looks to show a compilation of all kinds, tying into the theme of multi-nations.

Essentially, the spread makes for tons of style and a dizzying amount of eye candy, making the VMAN International Issue a must-have.
