📰 MAN UP — THE MANLY MONTHLY

Gift Like a Legend. Live Like One Too.

Greetings, Legend!

Welcome to the first ever edition of The Manly Monthly — your inside look at everything happening at Man Up, Utah’s coolest shop for men. New gear, legendary laughs, Kick ass events, and new ways to level up your manhood. Lets get started...


🔥 Legendary Lessons

🤣 “The Cologne Catastrophe”

This months Legenday Lesson comes from a regular Man Up customer who told us he bought a new cologne for his first date. Good choice.
What he didn’t tell us… was that he apparently applied it like bear spray.

He said he wanted “just a little extra confidence,” but by the time he was done, his bathroom looked like a fog machine at a rock concert. When his date opened the car door, she actually gasped — not at his good looks, but because the scent cloud tried to escape.

Halfway through dinner, the waiter walked by and said, “Wow… someone smells amazing… in a ‘my eyes are watering’ kind of way.”

The customer told us the date went great — once the air cleared.
His lesson learned?

Two sprays = confidence.
Ten sprays = chemical warfare.


🤣 JOKE OF THE MONTH

Why don’t Vikings ever argue at dinner?
Because they always mead in the middle.

(Groan responsibly.)

🧔 GROOMING (just the) TIP OF THE MONTH

Beard looking dry?
Hit it with a few drops of beard oil right after a warm shower. Your pores are open, the beard is soft, and the oil absorbs better — more shine, less itch, more “lumberjack hero” energy.


🪓 SURVIVAL TIP OF THE MONTH

The Rule of Three:

  • You can survive 3 minutes without air,

  • 3 hours without proper shelter,

  • 3 days without water,

  • 3 weeks without food.

If you only remember one survival rule, make it this one.


⚔️ VIKING KNOWLEDGE

Did you know?
Vikings used a special type of birch-bark tar called “krekkjabólk” to waterproof shields and ships. It made their longships faster, lighter, and able to handle brutal ocean weather — basically the original marine coating.


🏅 HERITAGE RECOGNITION

This month we salute our Utah veterans.
Their bravery, discipline, and sacrifice embody exactly what Man Up stands for: honor, strength, and community. Thank you for your service, legends.


🎁 GIFT CARDS AVAILABLE

Still not sure what to get him?
A Man Up Gift Card never misses. Perfect for birthdays, holidays, or those “just because he’s awesome” moments.


👋 UNTIL NEXT MONTH…

Thanks for hanging with us, Legend. Until next time… stay bold, stay gritty, and keep showing the world what “Man Up” really means.

Stay Legendary
The Man Up Crew
