It was only a matter of time before Kim Kardashian expanded her shapewear empire SKIMS to include men and masc-of-center folks. And while some of the choices for the SKIMS mens first-ever ad campaign are stunning—such as artist and icon Thaddeus Coates aka Hippy Potter and Canadian point guard Shai Gilgeous-Alexander—at least one of Kim’s choices is proving to be a real miss.

“If it’s not SKIMS Men,” a recent tweet announced after the menswear line preview officially showed up on socials yesterday, “it won’t get past elite edge-rusher Nick Bosa.”
Footballer Nick Bosa, for those not in the know, is a defensive lineman for the San Francisco 49ers. But before you start losing your mind over a generic pair of abs, there are a few things you should know about Bosa’s politics. Namely: they’re bad. They’re really bad.
Not long after the SKIMS mens ads came out, users pointed out Bosa’s anti-Black, anti-BLM tweets, including a few choice posts that show the footballer’s love for ex-President Trump.
Now listen, are we surprised? Not even slightly. But come on, Kim. Maybe do a little better on your vetting, especially where NFL players are concerned.
