A North Yorkshire football club has unveiled the world's first ever see-through kit sporting an urgent message to men.
Bedale AFC is already well known for its unusual outfits after opting for an eyebrow-raising hot dog-themed kit in a previous season.
This year, however, the club has teamed up with Heck to produce a completely translucent strip, the Daily Star reports.
Four massive arrows are printed on the front and back which point at the nether region with the message "don't forget to check".

The strip is being used to raise awareness of two of the biggest killers of men every year in the UK: prostate cancer and testicular cancer.
Bedale AFC, from the North Riding League, will donate 5 from every kit sale to Prostate Cancer UK.
Bedale is aiming to raise 200,000 for the charity, which could rise a further 50,000 if their charity events are as successful as this kit launch.
This isnt the first time that Bedale has released a jaw-dropping kit, and it certainly wont be the last.
In previous seasons they have had a whole host of quirky and obscure strips, from sausage and mash kits to a cheese grater goalkeeper.
The most famous of all their kits is certainly their 2018/19 hot dog one though, one of the clubs first astonishingly bizarre outfits.
Head to toe in a bun, sausage, ketchup and mustard, it caused a storm on social media and really put the Bedale boys on the map.
Full kits can be purchased from historicfootballshirts.co.uk for 79.99, which includes black socks which say Check your prostate and Check your balls.
