FitLads is a profiles site for blokes between over 18 who like or who are real lads.... scally lads, neds, chavs.... or just guys that don't take themselves so seriously.

The idea is you sign up for free, upload some pics of you, and can see other lads. There's plenty of pics sorted into different galleries, so why not have a look?

Most lads on the site are into either sports kit, scally gear, trackies, shorts and all that sorta thing - you get the drift.

Unlike many websites, our members are nearly all in the UK - meaning you're more likely to meet guys near you. Who wants to meet guys half way around the world?

Membership is totally free. You can join up, see other lads pics, message lads, add your own pics, use the forums - all without paying a penny. However the site costs money to run - so there is a small, optional charge of £3 a month - and is only required for a few of the sites features.

We've run club nights at Essential in Manchester for a few years. Through 2008 we're expanding that to Cardiff (Club X), London (Central Station), Leeds (Mission), Blackpool (Flamingo) and Newcastle (Powerhouse). Here are some pictures from our Manchester 'wet jock' contest at Essential Nightclub.
