Meet On Mekahel, a multi-talented Israeli model, actor, businessman, and TV personality whose journey is as diverse as his accomplishments.
Born in 1993 in Rehovot, Israel, On’s story unfolds with a backdrop of family values and a rich cultural heritage. The youngest of three siblings, he embarked on a unique path after completing his army service in Israel.
In 2014, On made a bold move, crossing continents to pursue his passion for acting at The Lee Strasberg Theatre and Film Institute in New York. Alongside his studies, he seamlessly entered the world of modeling and acting, laying the foundation for a remarkable career.
What sets On apart is not only his on-screen charisma but also his entrepreneurial spirit. In 2016, he launched MOUNDERWEAR, an underwear line born from a deep understanding of the industry, cultivated through years of modeling for various brands. The brand, tailored for men, stands out by redefining quality basics with a blend of comfort, sexiness, and masculinity.
On’s journey takes an intriguing turn as he becomes the central character in the reality TV show “Putting On,” offering viewers an intimate look into his personal and business life. The series captures the highs and lows of navigating the dynamic entertainment and fashion industries.
A pivotal moment in On’s life occurred in 2018 when “Putting On” aired its first episode. A year later in 2019, he tied the knot with his partner, David, in a Paris ceremony. Together, they relocated to Los Angeles, where they continue to collaborate on MOUNDERWEAR and pursue joint ventures in business and entertainment.
MOUNDERWEAR, more than just a brand, is a reflection of On’s journey. The collection includes boxers, briefs, athletic crew socks, and swimwear, offering a diverse range of options. Notably, the newest sport collection introduces jockstraps and a unique design of briefs crafted from super- breathable fabric.
Looking ahead, MOUNDERWEAR is set to unveil its resort swim collection, anticipated to make a splash before the summer season. On Mekahel’s story is one of resilience, creativity, and a commitment to redefining success in the worlds of fashion and entertainment.
