Trunk Show-down!



Today we are honored to have the Daddy-o of cools-ville, Maxwell Truth as our guest blog-star. The Off Beat Cinema host said, "I can dig it!" and graciously took time out of his tremendously busy hipster life to judge a beachy keen competition we here at 1226 Designs put on.

The competition was to pit three iconic male images; Ken, Mjr. Matt Mason and G.I. Joe, against one another in a swimming trunk competition. The trunk show-downs winner was decided upon rather quickly by our beachy keen beatnik bud. The following is the official Maxwell Truth statement sent to 1226 Designs HQ:


"Well first of all Ken was a skinny 'lil dweeb with no genitalia who claimed to dig Barbie, but she had no nips!!! I suspect he was more fond of Todd.


Major Matt Mason was a spaceman for cryin' out loud. Spacemen do not wear swim trunks! They eat freeze dried food, drink Tang, wear cool helmets and pee in their space suits.

I think it goes without ... saying that GI Joe would undoubtedly be the best swimsuit model of the bunch. In fact, maybe that's why Barbie dumped Ken for him. Or was it his kung-fu grip"???

There you have it....this year's BEACHY KEEN SWIMMING TRUNK COMPETITION WINNER, as per Maxwell Truth, is G.I. Joe! Better luck next year Ken (Johnny West says he wants in, in 2011...but let's face it, he'll chaff those gams without his dungarees and chaps)!

For winning the first annual Swimming Trunk Competition, G.I. Joe will receive a handy bottle opener designed by 1226 Designs. It's made with Lake Erie beach glass...it's authentic, hand made and beachy keen!!!!!!!
