Chances are you're familiar with David Beckham's underwear preferences (tight, tight and slightly tighter) but in his latest range for H&M, the football star is cutting a looser line in sporty leisurewear.

There's the obligatory curve-hugging boxers shot, naturally, but his autumn offering is largely a covered-up affair. Shot in a dimly-lit changing room, H&M describes the campaign as full of "old East London atmosphere" befitting the 38-year-old's Leytonstone upbringing. The range, it says, focuses on "fit, fabric, comfort and style."

“I love the heritage athletic style of the new pieces in my Bodywear collection at H&M," Beckham says. "The vests, pyjama bottoms and raglan sleeve tops are already wardrobe favourites for me that I know I’ll wear all season long. It was great to shoot them in an old-fashioned East End changing room. It was like I had gone right back to my roots."
