About The Bizarre World of Max
| Well, Max is in your face latex and leather fashion peorson as well as escape artist. He likes to wear edgy fashion on the street. This showoff attitude is designed to wake up and bring more people out of their closet of three piece suits and frumpy peer pressure snobbery. But then vanity, ego and so on is there too. So Max has latex fashions, and leather ones, and lots of lycra. You will see him shop, walk and travel in comfy colourful rubber or lycra during the day. Night time is more about wearing fashionable latex. In colder times there is Hazmat, environmental suits, leathers, scuba wet and dry suits to keep him warm all winter long while he shops or heads to restaurants. Now that is bizarre, but he loves it. Max is a rubber fetishist. And don't forget he loves his boots. |
