Salzgeber Publishing has released the latest Playgirl Men 2026—a large wall calendar measuring 30×42 cm, which is already being called one of the most revealing and aesthetically refined releases in recent years. The price is currently €21.27, and according to the publisher, it’s selling out faster than last year’s edition.
What's Inside
Every month brings a new model and a new visual story. The focus is on the diversity of the male physique: from muscular, classic heartthrobs to more refined and “artistic” guys. The photos are taken by leading photographers who collaborate with the Playgirl platform: studio portraits, outdoor shoots, warm lighting, natural poses, and minimal retouching.
According to the editorial team, the calendar features both recent photo shoots and carefully selected archival images. They highlight the evolution of Playgirl’s aesthetic: from the daring nude magazine of the 1970s to a contemporary, more artistic, and diverse take on male sexuality.
The "Most Talkative" Month
December drew particular attention: In the preview, the image was cropped above the waist, but in its full version, according to the editorial team, it showcases the assets of a model named Joe—a shot that will likely become the main topic of discussion on social media and in related online communities.
- Playgirl Men 2026 is a blend of aesthetics, nostalgia, and modern sensuality. The calendar will be a standout addition to the collections of fans of male erotic photography and, judging by the market’s reaction, one of the most talked-about gifts of the season.
- Playgirl was launched in 1973, becoming the first mainstream magazine to openly publish photographs of naked men. Officially, it was positioned as a magazine for women, but by the time the print edition ceased publication in 2009, its actual readership consisted primarily of gay men. Today, Playgirl exists as an online platform featuring new photo projects and its classic archive.
- The price of the calendar at the time of release varies: on some platforms, it is about 26.99 USD (which is equivalent to approximately 24–25 € at the current exchange rate)
