Santi Pintado
Boss Man

How did you enjoy this fashion shoot for Maxim, Pup?

I had a great day. The Maxim crew were fantastic, a lot of fun, brilliant to work with and we shot at a great venue at Pink Salt restaurant, Sydney.

Do you consider yourself a bit of a fashionista?

No, not really. I have my own style, and I know what I feel comfortable in, and that’s what fashion is about—express yourself any way you like.

How would you describe your fashion style?

It depends on the occasion. I like to look smart, but comfort is still my number one priority.

What’s the most embarrassing outfit you’ve ever worn in your life?

Anything my mum used to dress me in as a kid—sandals and socks were her speciality.

Has your wife, Kyly, ever frowned at anything you’ve worn in public?

I don’t think so—not that I know of. Well, not to my face, anyway!

What have you been up to since you retired from cricket?

I launched my cricket academy a few years ago and I love being more involved with it. I’m also lucky enough to be an ambassador for a number of companies, as well as commentating for Channel Nine, and I’ve just started a digital component to my business. I’m busier now than when I was playing, but really enjoying life after cricket and being able to spend more time at home with my daughter is also a joy I cherish every day. I’m really happy with my decision to retire. I started playing cricket at six, so I played for 29 years! I feel I left at the perfect time and now have a beautiful family that makes my decision even easier.
