Body sponge for men?

It's tough to make a knotted poof of netting look manly. Most drugstores usually have them in plain white or blue. Axe makes a "body detailer" that I suppose looks manly.
The Salux bath towel. Don't let the woman on the package fool you.
I just go with the white pouf, failing that, I'm secure in my manhood and I'm not concerned if I'm forced to use powder blue or pink.
Mine is a medium shade of green. I don't think anyone will care what color or brand of sudsing tool you use.
West Coast Shaving has just started carrying natural sponges. Scroll down on this page http://www.westcoastshaving.com/New-Products_c_103.html
I've been using one of these

Seems to work well although it could use a larger loop to hang it up.

I use something that looks strikingly like this, I purchased mine in a grocery store. They last forever, and you can put them in the laundry like a washcloth. I have had one for a while now and I really like it.
I think I may have once dated a body sponge for men. Wasn't too bad.
Go loofah, baby, loofah all the way.

B&BW do a black netted shower sponge.
I jumped on the bandwagon recently as well with some from The Body Shop. Its great. You can bunch it up and use it like a loofah/"body tool" from most everywhere and then open it up so that you can actually clean your back/boot of you feet with little effort. Squeeze it at the end lets it dry off quicker and it can be thrown in the washer, unlike the loofah. Bonus with the towel is that because it opens up, it is possible to actually use bar soap in my hard water since there is more surface area to load up the soap.
The beauty of this towel is the rough texture will easily make luxurious suds off a bar of soap, and it is also long enough for you to scrub every inch of your back. I don't know how you would scrub your back with a sponge unless you were Prince Akeem heir to the throne of Zamunda.
I use an Ayate cloth.

It is woven from fibers of the Agave plant. It is very soft and whips up a lot of lather no matter what soap I use. It is also effective as a substitute for a shaving brush, similar to the Hydrolast cloth sold my Enchante.

Used to work with a ex-Force Recon Marine SGT. who told me about "GI showers" with those. *shudder* 
The natural sponges from Acca Kappa are quite nice, but also quite expensive. If you have a Whole Foods or another similar market in your area you should be able to find natural sponges easily. I suppose a copper pot scrubber could serve as a seriously masculine bathing implement.
Walmart has a blue/white or a dark green shower net thing that I use.
I have a black puff, don't remember where I got it from. The AXE ones are also pretty good.
A couple of Marines I hang out with call them "soap parties". They sound like the exact polar opposite of a nice relaxing shower.

I have the axe detailer, really don't care for it. Notice the other brands like dove started making something similar when they came out with the men + care line. I use a simple black or orange poof ball. They work, and no one questions me on my manliness from using them.
