Closeout Speedo Sale

Closeout Speedo sale

The US Speedo Website is having a final closeout on suits that did not sell well and are overstocked. A lot of these are in very small sizes as in 24 or 26 inch waist, but some are not. A lot of them also the “One” brief, that have been getting review complaints that the sizing runs way small and the fit is too tight. And there are One "Pride" briefs one sale too. I found an allover Pride multicolored pattern listed at $14 but there is another 40% off of that bringing the price down to just over $8 each. These come in all sizes from 24 inches to 38 inches in 2-inch increments. Initially I ordered one in my usual size 30 but then I read the reviews that said these ran way small in size the recommendation being 2 sizes up. So a normal 30 would be happiest in a 34.

Some readers may recall my stories about the characters Dylan and Josh each purchasing swimwear in an array of sizes from adequate to super tight, and then having a try-on session in which each of them tried on each size starting with the largest, and then seeing if there was a point where they could make it through the pile of suits to the smallest one without ejaculating uncontrollably. This gets harder and harder to do (LOL) as the suits get smaller and tighter. And getting harder is not really what a guy needs to have happen if he is attempting to try on a suit he knows is undersized.

This morning I ordered three more of the same suit, in sizes 28, 32 and 34 with the goal of replicating what Josh and Dylan tried. The bargain prices on the suits made it possible to set up the experiment for what just a single Speedo would normally cost me. playing out events I dreamed up in my Speedo stories. Given the holidays it might be a week before I get all the suits, but the anticipation of what will occur once they do arrive is a great deal of psychological fun as well. and the One briefs where the customers are complaining that sizing runs way small or these fit "too tight" makes them ideal for the experiment.

Thanks Sebbie, Was going to tone down my spending on fun wearables. Could not pass up the prices and free shipping, but did keep it to just 1 Speedo. Hope it fits.

Happy holidays

It seems to me that Speedo has been having difficulty selling both briefs and Jammers made out of a trademarked fabric they get from a company called REPREVE. The company is making what they call a recycled polyester from plastic, mainly single-use water bottles and bottles used for other beverages such as milk and soft drinks. This is an interesting idea if they can get it to work. The claim is that the polyester is but 52% recycled plastic. But apparently there is no Lycra (Spandex) in the blend. In their descriptions of some of the briefs made from REPREVE, Speedo says expect a somewhat snugger and more compressed fit.

Here is a link for brands using REPREVE https://repreve.com/brands-using-repreve

In addition to the swim briefs I ordered a sale Jammer in the same fabric, size 32 W In other Lycra blend Jammers if anything a 32 W is a touch big on me. I am curious if I have any difficulty getting into that.

Speedo seems to be closing out everything made from REPREVE and I am curious if anything from that fabric shows up on their US site at all in 2024. Maybe the snug fit is a virtue not a weakness, but the reviewers certainly had little positive to say. Another possibility would be to resize everything 4 inches up but for some reason they did not do that. That idea may result in a fit that deters a swimmer from moving fast through the water or appear not look as sleek. And Speedo can hardly sell suits that lack speed.

According to the USPS my suit will arrive tomorrow, or next week, or 2024 who knows with them. I will be reporting back, if it even fits.

The Four Speedo Briefs Review

I have four Speedo briefs identical except for size. These four are all the diagonal color block design as shown in the photo in a previous post here. The sizes are 34”, 32”, 30”, and 28”. All four of the briefs are made entirely from a polyester recycled from waste bottles. The designs are the same for all sizes each fully lined with a black inside lining.

The colors in the fabric are very bright and beautiful. The designs do not strike me as being a gay pride design. The color blocks do not look like any sort of gay flag or rainbow—they are just a series if bright primary (red, blue, yellow) and secondary (green, purple, orange) colors in no particular order. In short the only way this can be a brief that identifies a gay person is to somehow connect these colors appearing in a fabric as being a gay “signal” of some sort. But these colors individually or in combination are found in all sorts of men’s swimwear over the generations.

This continues to have me a bit perplexed. Speedo is the one that tried to make this as being a brief a swimmer who is openly gay should wear. The hang tag says “No matter what lane you swim in”, as does the equally colorful packaging with the same phrase. What did Speedo intend, anyway? Did they mistakenly believe lots of closeted gay male swimmers actually wanted briefs that announced to the world that they were somehow both a competitive swimmer and gay, and these would go over big because the colors and pattern sorta were consistent with that? What about the gay male swimmer who did not want to make such a public announcement? Did they intend to also sell this brief to guys who do not claim to be gay but still support the gay movement? In short, if a guy shows up wearing this brief at the pool what are the other swimmers to conclude about the guy? What does the swimmer wearing the brief WANT the other swimmers as well as those in the crowd to conclude, anyway? Speedo seems to not seem to know.

Personally, I do not swim in any lane, although I do enjoy wearing a colorful swim brief. But there are issues here as well. For starters, the ecofriendly recycled poly has little stretch to it, though it may hold up well over time in chlorinated pools. Even worse, the brief is fully lined front and rear with an black fabric that doesn’t seem to stretch at all. Then the tie cord comes already tied and seems tied too short, making the brief seem even smaller and less stretchy.

It seems to me that one key to a successful Speedo is for the design and fabric to not only stretch a lot but to move freely with the body. The recycled fabric Speedos with full linings seem to do none of that. Further, a Speedo that does not stretch is a poor choice for a guy who simply wants to have fun wearing one. This is not a suit that would sell into the self-pleasuring market at all, while many other brands—those made of a stretchier fabric with only a front panel lining of the same fabric--do.

I have swim briefs in all sorts of sizes, ranging from 26 inches to 34 inches and I am pleased to say I can fit into all of them, except, so far at least, this Speedo in the 28-inch size. But I routinely wear swim briefs that are far skimpier and with less though stretchier material than this 28-inch Speedo.

Given four different sizes of this Speedo, I measured the side width in each. Here are the results.

34” = 3 inch sides (approx 7.5 cm)
32” = 2 ¾ inch sides
30” = 2 ½ inch sides
28” = 2 ¼ inch sides

The 34” size fits me the best, but this looks almost like a “granny” swim brief straight out of 1972. In essence, this is the Mark Spitz “flag pattern” swim brief except that the pattern is a series of diagonal color blocks. The 3-inch sides on the 34 in combination with the other features look rather “dated” as in a Speedo from 50 years ago with purportedly undated “message” and general discomfort just pulling the brief on, not to mention what amounted to a “granny” swim brief design that left me wondering. Usually, if a swim brief does not cut it at a pool, it is at least good for jerking off in privately, but these briefs accomplish neither. Still, on a positive note, the briefs sans the messaging attempt are bright and colorful but uncomfortable worn as a swim brief.

In the 1960's I had the original solid color Nylon Ocean Champion (5'' sides) and Ocean Speed (3" sides) briefs that had no stretch at all. The lining was a suit inside the suit, same color and material but slightly smaller than the outer suit. They also came in 2" size increments, if I went one size smaller I had to squeeze into them. Flat front, no pouch either. They would fade but never wear out. I always liked my suits as tight as possible, although now I can get stretchy tiny Mategear, AQUX, Arena Japan suits, and BBlair gaff thongs for a no-bulge more comfortable flat front look. I tried ordering, but with shipping it would be $20 for a suit I would probably never wear so I deleted it.

[singletlover]

I still have a few of the 100% nylon Ocean Champion suits. I even have one unworn in its original box. Our high school had a pool so some gym time was swimming. These suits were supplied for the class. I believe this was my introduction to all things we love here. I did borrow a few, I must admit. Now if I could only fit into that high school suit...........

[sebbie]

I finally got around to experimenting with a pair of my Speedo rainbow briefs. Of the four, I chose the 32” size for my experiment last night. I go into these modes during the winter where I go for long periods of time where I hardly masturbate at all, but then as the days grow longer I suddenly spring forward again.

I started the evening out by using my favorite e-stim device an edging mode. Typically, I enjoy doing about 8 minutes of that, experimenting with the various current levels and patterns, and, to a degree at least, to see how much my body can take. I have discovered that my vacuum penis pump works a lot better if I am already quite horny and at least semi hard going in. There is a mental fitness here that is good to maintain. Next, I set the vacuum pump on the base with my favorite blue penis ring, ready to snap into the base of my penis just before I remove the pump.

Once the pump is off, I like to lube up my penis with gel soap and then snap on a second penis ring just below the glans and then engage in some old-fashioned masturbation using the gel soap as an effective lube. I then draw a tub of warm water and hop into the tub, penis still quite hard and rings in place at the base and glans. Lubed up with the gel, and the tight-fitting rings at the glans and base feel really great.

Next, I am out of the tub and ready for nighttime. Keep in mind that I remain quite aroused and horny. Now is the time to put on one of those too tight rainbow Speedo briefs. I picked the size 32 and even that was tough to get into. I struggled a lot. Part of the key to getting in was to untie the waist strap. I tugged and pulled and finally made it in. The only way my penis would fit, however, was “up”. This was partly due to the lack of stretch in the material.

I covered the Speedo with my black Devops running tights and top, and, in this horny state, I quickly fell asleep.

I awakened again at exactly 1 AM, and my penis was still hard and pointed upward in the snug rainbow Speedo. I said to myself “this feels really good in that position” and was thinking that maybe I had been a bit tough on Speedo for selling such snug-fitting briefs. I was getting “used” to the fit and feel and I liked what was happening to me. In a minute or so I was having a real orgasm, something that had not happened earlier in the night. This was almost like a wet dream from my teen years. Penis “up” orgasms are terrific fun, but particularly so in the Speedo. A lot of the sheer enjoyment in doing this is having the right equipment on hand.

I fell right back to sleep and did not awaken until 6 AM this morning, with my mind fixated on all the fun I had the night before. I want to do this again, and again!

The Speedo “Gay” Swim Briefs

By wearing the same pair of 32” waist “Gay” Speedo briefs, night after night, I am gradually warming up to them. After first having difficulty even getting into the 32 inch pair, I have made some adjustments and worked with them a bit. The really tricky part is getting into them as first time wear out of the package. But with multiple wearings they seem to stretch a bit so getting in and out is no longer as difficult.

A suppose I could say that if a genuine Speedo does not fit really tight it is not a “real” Speedo. Part of the fun of getting into a Speedo the really tight fit. Still, this recycled material seems to have little stretch compared with a poly brief laced with elastane. But still, part of the fun of getting a new Speedo relates to the “struggle” getting into it. Merely thinking about the struggle can easily make a guy hard, and that in itself makes the struggle ever more difficult!

And, of course, there is no bigger fan of snug-fitting clothing than me, but a particular choice is a genuine Speedo that makes it difficult if not impossible to place my penis in the Speedo other than in the classic “up” position, with the underside pressing firmly against the fabric of the pouch. This makes me hard just to think about doing that, and I suspect a lot of other guys are interested in doing the same thing even though I don’t expect the topic to come up in casual conversation. This is not about being straight or gay, but merely something a lot of guys would find as really fun to do, if they only had a tight-fitting Speedo.

What I have discovered is that with one of these suits, it is quite easy to put myself in the up position, and the suit fits snug enough such that wherever the penis tip is, it stays in that one spot. With the pressure from the too-tight Speedo the penis stays semi-hard all night long. I can go to bed with a nice semi, and wake up at 3 AM still semi hard and feeling great. Or, as I did this AM, stay soundly asleep all night long and awaken at 6:30 AM, still feeling really good down there.

The black full lining of these adds another dimension as well. Since my penis stays in one spot and being semi-hard, precum is going to accumulate in one spot. What I always find most interesting is that by wearing the Speedo to bed I am able to generate precum all night long even when I am sound asleep. Precumming is always a favorite time for me, but especially at night!

Still, I keep wondering about how Speedo the company got to the point where they were marketing these particular swim briefs as being targeted as for specifically gay male swimmers. First off, there is no logo or print to suggest that this is a gay pride brief. The fabric pattern does not have mini rainbows on it. It is simply an allover color-block pattern with many diagonal stripes of bright primary colors. But Speedo embraced this as part of a campaign to sell swim briefs to gay males—I guess openly gay males who would immediately realize that the briefs were aimed at the non-straight crowd. But part of this might have been an effort to market these not to gay males entirely but to males who were straight but were supportive of the rights of gay males to live their lives the way they wanted relationship wise. At the same time this seemed to suggest that these briefs were not to be worn by any guy who was not interested in making a public statement regarding straight versus gays, and were in particular not into buying a swimsuit in an effort to make a social statement of some sort.

Obviously, this strategy on the part of Speedo worked poorly and they ended up selling off the briefs really cheap. Since the big clearance sale Speedo does not appear to have gone back into the murky area of trying to sell a swim brief specifically to openly gay customers. Maybe they will again try this stunt, but selling clothing directed to a specific group within the LGBTQ community has proven to be a land mine for many retailers selling clothing (See Target as an illustration) not to mention the Bud Light beer controversy. Speedo had a real cleanout of briefs made from the recycled fabric, but the cheapest ones ended up being made of that fabric plus with advertising claiming that Speedo did not care what “lane” the swimmer was in which more or less announced that if you are not an openly gay male you should therefore not be wearing this brief. Is a public swim meet really the place to sort this all out?

Sometimes, stuff is simply better left unsaid.

Speedo Comparison.

Last evening, I dug out a Speedo I had purchased a number of years ago I found online. It was a NWT Speedo that needed to be shipped from a Hawaiian Ebay address (interesting). The size was interesting too labeled “Youth 26”. Of course, I normally wear a 30- or 32-inch waist size.so this was a personal lower limit on what I thought I could get into, perhaps with a struggle. Still, my fascination with wearing undersized Speedos was shining brightly, and I went ahead and ordered it as I knew the struggle in getting into this would be part of the fun.

It arrived and was just able to get into it but it was indeed something of a struggle. The Speedo got tossed to the side as I found other swim briefs I liked wearing better and on a daily basis, for sleeping too.

Last night, I was thinking about the difficulties I was having wearing anything undersized in the new (Pride) briefs I had gotten on sale. I had versions in 34, 32, 30 and 28 inches, but the smallest one I could even get into was the 32-inch one. I started thinking about this 26 Y brief I had and in particular, comparing that brief with the new ones.

Like the new ones, the 26-inch brief is fully lined with a black polyester liner. But when I stretched the Pride briefs horizontally there is almost no stretch at all. When I stretch the Speedo from Hawaii brief I can easily stretch the waist to maybe 140-150 percent of the label size of 26 inches.

This has to be because of the type of outer layer fabric used in each case has quite different stretch capabilities in that the poly used in the 26-inch brief and not the recycled stuff that Speedo has been using in many of their briefs.

What happens in the undersizing is that not only does the waist size expand to fit me, but the sides of the brief appear to narrow from what appears to be a nominal three-inch side to what looks like a 2-inch side (or even less). Further, the brief still has sufficient rise to completely cover my butt “Y”. It looks way tight but not revealing from the back. In short, this way undersized brief could be worn in public that way and would be perfectly fine appearing simply as a nice snug-fitting Speedo.

But this undersizing is impossible to do with any Speedo from the cloth made from recycled plastic waste and that’s why they were selling out a lot of briefs using this fabric. The idea of using this fabric just did not work.

For swim team coaches saying that the team needs to wear a size smaller brief at the big meet, this is only possible if the fabric stretches substantially, which the recycled plastic fabric does not.

Of course, the 26-Y leaves very little space inside everywhere. This fact is either way fun or a problem depending on your outlook. I went ahead and since I was already fully in the brief, I decided to spend the night in the really tight brief. The only workable penis position is “up” and there really is not room for even a modest hard-on. Depending on your outlook, this might be a problem or an opportunity.

I did make it through the night OK, slept soundly, and awakened at about all of this and still feeling just as aroused as when I had crawled into bed wearing the 26-inch Y brief!

This brief will probably not be my choice for sleeping every night, but it is still a lot of fun.

I have some of my Dads Speedos from the 60s.Size 30 tie dye pattern.Had on.in blue but it bit the dust in a game of tug of war in water polo game in college.My coach still has the pieces.Have in in yellow and orange.Now that I'm a coach I wear it to coach in.

After my initial experiment with these super snug Fitting Rainbow Speedos, from two years ago, all but the 32" one that I broke out of its plastic bag have simply been lying in a drawer for nearly two years. Occasionally this summer I still wore the 32 incher. Last night, a hot and humid summer night here, I again crawled into the 32 incher and somehow got my penis stuffed into it. The suit is small and tight enough that even in 32-inch size it leaves the Y of my butt crack exposed. Usually this is a problem only with suits under 30 inches.

Like I often do, I "tapped" my penis through the pouch a few times but soon fell asleep with my penis closely confined to a horizontal position. I was feeling pretty good as I fell asleep feeling very good but not yet "climbing the walls" with pleasure.

I awoke again at 3:45 AM and I was feeling even better down there than I did when I fell asleep. For those of you who may not be aware, one of the benefits of putting myself in a confined space at bedtime is that it is likely that whatever you think you will be able to handle early in the night becomes more and more difficult to handle should you wake up and start to mess around a bit. in this condition, messing around typically involves only a gentle tapping of the most sensitive spots inside the pouch. One tap leads to two, checking out a slightly different spot. Tapping that etc etc. Employing this technique, it is not long before I am climbing the walls with pleasant sensations. I am starting to think that this Speedo brief might have some interesting features. I soon decide that if I am going to not end this 3:45 AM tapping fun i am nearer to a full-scale orgasm. That stops the fun dead in its tracks, And, given the link between feeling horny and my ability to write these stories, I need to be up this morning without having had an orgasm.

This story leads to two other places. First, maybe just maybe Speedo is smart about marketing briefs to gay guys than I give them credit. Maybe, one of the reasons this style fits almost impossibly tight is because Speedo knows gay guys usually very much like a really snug and tight fit for the same reason I am suddenly saying this was really fun to mess with. Could that be impossible? heck, I see all sorts of other videos and photos of gay guys wearing really tight-fitting gear, not only Speedos but compression gym wear of all sorts that fits like a second skin.

Second, I still have these same Speedos in three other sizes, two of them smaller than this one (30- and 28- inch waists) and my readers know that there is nothing more that I like to do than to run experiments where I start with the swim brief of the largest size and then keep trying on similar swim briefs each in a successively smaller size. These experiments generally end when the brief is so small I can't get into it at all or I have a full-blown orgasm at some point. Maybe I will try crawling into the 30-incher tonight and see how my mind and body "reacts" to the situation I put myself in.

TV ads generally have become more and more explicit with respect to matters previously deemed private. See Charmin bathroom tissue, trimmers explicitly sold trim pubic hair, and deodorants showing people spraying the deodorants on private parts.

If there is a market for Speedos for engaging in what I am talking about doing, these sales could be a boon for Speedo the company, but the customers need to know more details about what to do with a too snug-fitting Speedo. Maybe Speedo will hire me to explain all of what the public might be missing, and that a too-tight Speedo is actually a good thing not a bad thing!

I admit, however, that some guys may have already discovered what I am suggesting on their own,

Several years ago I found and purchased a Speedo Swim brief that was sent to me from Hawaii. NWT, the only catch was that it was US SZ 26, which if a Mens SM US is 28-30, this was going to be way small. I had worn swim briefs in smaller sizes than my waist size, but usually I stop downsizing at US 28. It used to be that Speedo sold briefs in "Mens" sizes from 28 up but 26 and smaller was considered a Youth size, as in for boys not men. Nowadays, however a lot of their brief come in sizes from 24 to 38 or 40 and maybe even down to 22. The whole "Youth" sizing has largely disappeared.

I suspect my Hawaiian brief came from a time when 26 was simply the largest "youth" size.

Neat brief but very conventional. typical of a brief with 3 inch sides. More recently, getting into one of the Gay briefs in size 32 was a quite a struggle for me, but I had gotten into the Hawaii Brief SZ 26 some time ago and still looked presentable. The 26 incher even (well nearly) covered the Y of my butt crack. The Hawaiian brief was capable of stretchiung horizontally a lot. But depending on the amount of the horizontal stretch, the sides kept getting narrower and narrower. But still, a guy who wears a 32" in the Gay brief can look presentable in a 26-inch Old(er) School Speedo.

Years ago guys would make choices with respect to waist size only partly based on their actual measured waist. If you liked a snugger fit, just downsize your Speedo two inches. Not snug enough? Go another two inches. These smaller sizes stretched enough so getting in and out of them was not a big issue, and the smaller the waist size the narrower the sides would look despite the sides being essentially the same for all the waist sizes.

REAL swimmers undersized more than the more casual swimmers, partly to intimidate the competition. Real males are proud of their anatomy and undersized more than the other guys in an effort to show their stuff in any number of respects.

But with many of the new Speedos it seems waist size has got to be spot on because there is so little horizontal stretch to the fabric. Maybe real swimmers no longer choose Speedos with the idea that the smaller the waist size the narrower the appearance of the sides. Still, if guys want to intimidate the competition in swimming competitions by choosing a brief with a narrower side so be it. I have some Seobean Briefs that are conventional swimwear but very narrow sides, though I have trouble seeing those being worn at a conventional high school or college swim meet.

[sebbie]

Apparently Speedo had a large number of Speedos made up in the recycled, (aka "climate friendly") fabric. The problem with he fabric was that although durable, it stretches very little. On the Website the briefs made from this fabric appear to have "One" in the name as in the One Brief.

Buyers rejected Speedos made from this fabric in droves, and Speedo is still attempting to get rid of Speedo brief inventory made from this fabric with half price and even bigger markdowns. What's a Speedo if it does not stretch an conform to the body in the process.

I found the rainbow Pride brief still on the website along with a review directly from the description, below.

Very disappointed
1 out of 5 stars
I don't know when this happened, but Speedo sizing has changed for the worst. This is my second time trying to purchase a pride suit. The first time, back in 2019, I ordered my regular suit size on a 34, and it was tight, but I thought it would stretch, it didn't. This year I called myself being wiser and ordering both a 34 and 36, just tried them on, and it's not a scene to be viewed outside of my house. The suit material has no stretch/ give, and is not flattering. It smushes everything in and needless to say would not be comfortable to wear during an 1+ hour long practice. I love that Speedo is trying out this new eco fabric, but there should be some Lycra or stretch material in it too. Nonetheless I will not be keeping either one of the suits I just ordered, I guess I'll have to show my pride support outside of practice.

============================

The other problem is that clothing clearly identifying a guy as gay and proud of it came and went. Target got into this problem, when is started presenting clothing specifically marketed as for the gay and trans markets in store. Some items of clothing are probably better purchased on line in private! In short, promoting clothing as being for people identifying either as gay or as supporting gays is probably not what Speedo should be doing to enhance corporate sales. Is the company sure that it was a good idea to market Speedos specifically so the choice identified your sexual orientation?

Anyhow, Speedo is still attempting to sell inventory that hardly stretches at all and with some pieces indicating that this was made for a gay guy.
