The BARE 2025 MANUAL is a deeper dive into the meat archive; a celebration of bodies, moments, and men that deserve more than a single page. Spanning 100 pages, this manual brings together the men of the BARE 2025 calendar, alongside a carefully curated selection of previously unpublished archive images from earlier calendars.
 
Familiar faces return in new contexts; unseen photographs finally get their moment. As always, these are real men, not professional models. Different bodies, different ages, different energies, all photographed with intimacy, honesty, and intent.
 
This is not about perfection, but presence. About how desire builds when time is taken and attention is given.
 
The BARE 2025 MANUAL is designed to be revisited: part reference, part archive, part quiet indulgence. A reminder that one image is never enough, and that some photographs are worth waiting for.
