wearing 1.5-2inch suit for normal swimming
 

Have you guys ever noticed men wearing a suit with 1.5-2 inch sides under water. Honestly, it is the biggest turn on for me.

Just to see the body move from side to side, the butt making a bit of a jerking motion in a perfect pair of hot speedos.

I had noticed such speedos on boys/men when I swam at the RoseBowl Aquatic Center in Pasadena, California. The place was a madhouse for men in speedos.

I always wondered how suits could last them when they were constantly subjecting them to the chlorinated water. They didn't seem like they were Lyrca type material either.

You have three main choices:
Wear a suit made from an Endurance fabric, not as stretchy and thicker than Lycra but does last longer. Briefer suits tend not to be available in Endurance fabrics.
Wear a nylon suit, a durable non stretch fabric, can be worn very thin and moulds to your body.
Wear a Lycra suit and enjoy it but buy a new one now and then.

point no.2
 

As there have been several compliments on AussieBum's new Splish range, any knowledge from anybody of an intention by them to give up their nylon fabric?

I swim every day in Waveline 1" side bikinis.

If you use them every day as I do, you'll wear out the lycra down over your butt where a thong back would sit. Same goes for any brand. It wears in 2-3 months, then the suit needs replacing. That's why I bought one in six different colours this time, and rotate them each day!

The way to make them last longest is to wash them in whatever you wash yourself with in the shower afterwards. I use a liquid soap bodywash, and do the briefs at the same time.

Anyone care to share/post any underwater pics of swimmers/players wearing these suits? :p

You may have asked like 2 years ago, but better late than never!

Oh and this:



These photos weren't Waveline or aussieBum as you'd requested, but hopefully they'll do!

love a 1inch side. why wear so much if you are going to be out in the sun. love a swimsuit that shows a little cheek for everyday swimming to. enough to where you are covered but showing off just a bit. here is an example of a swimsuit i love to wear

1.5" Aussiebum
 

I love to swim in the lose 1.5" Aussiebum swimsuits. It feel like you have nothing on and the way they cling to your wet body when you exit the pool there is nothing like it.

1.5 to 2 inches is great

small enough to be skimpy but not so small as to be inappropriate

Love narrow side suits
 

Narrow suit sides are great, and I like to wear the straps riding high on my hips to accentuate the V shape and basket. My 'conservative' suit to wear at a beach is a Speedo with 1 inch side straps. Usually I like narrower suits like the DareDevil suit by N2N http://www.ebay.com/itm/N2N-Bodywear...-/271840363813

I'm sorry but 1.5 inches is too big...lol:) I opt for 1 inch or less! It is sexier and feels way better! See attached pic.

Take care,

I just got a 1-1.5 inch side arena while I was transiting through Singapore. It's really nice cause it's full coverage in the back and low on the hips with a fairly tight pouch that still is modest.

I'm really enjoying swimming in it.

Lycra eventually breaks down in chlorinated water. Stick with basic nylon.

I'm expecting delivery of two pair of Aussibum classic 1.5" nylon swimsuits in a few days. I ordered one pair in white and the other in light blue. Hoping to wear them when swimming at LA Fitness and 24 Hour Fitness. Should be a kick.

They will definitely send the message. You will no doubt attract attention and not go home alone

I really hope not. Nylon is the classic material and it is the most durable, I've found. I have yet to wear out a nylon Speedo.

Vega, I have several of the Seobean suit you posted and they are good suits for both swimming and lounging. Use in the hot tub mostly now,, but good suit for pool use too. The style is very complimentary to the body form.

I have enjoyed the 3/8" sides on the swim trunks made by Muscleskins. I think they're going down as or at least among my favorites.
