I think how tight you wear a 'speedo' depends also on the fabric. Stretchier suits can be worn tighter. I prefer 100% nylon suits such as Aussiebum Classic and Loose models. Because nylon has...

No age to stop wearing speedos
I don't really know what age I'll wear speedos to, but now I'm over 70 and still wearing my nylon Aussiebums. I do have to say that altho I'm getting a bit saggy, I'm in decent shape and am...

Two items
1. For Louis, yes I was on the old board. And 2., Byron lists the Markus-Brighton web page, but there is rarely much there. You need to check out his ebay offerings (markus-brighton with a...

Side split shorts
I found some illustrations to go with the recent discussion of side split shorts (sprinters). It's quite clear how these shorts are constructed because they are very...

More short shorts
I thought I noticed, over the past couple of years, a slow increase in the number of men wearing short(er) shorts, not only for running, etc., but also just around on the street, so I'm happy to see...

The first photo looks like it might be for some sort of publicity or advertising campaign. Aussiebum has done things like this, but those suits don't look like aussiebums. I'm inclined to think the...

College water safety
I didn't know how to swim growing up. When I got to college, it was a requirement that you know how to swim. This was in the days when Physical Education was a required part of college curricula. ...

Wear short shorts
I've always loved to wear short shorts and I'm lucky that, weather permitting, I can wear them most of the time. Not to take anything away from speedos, but you can't really wear them on the subway...

Low on the hips
I'm definitely a low on hips guy. I think that looks best on most other men too, though there are exceptions.

Speedos and short shorts need to be available
We are in a chicken and egg situation where most people want to fit in so they buy long baggy shorts so that is all that stores sell. I think that I am seeing more guys in speedos on the beach and...

Another thing...
PSDave made a point that I forgot about. Nylon suits cling to you when they are wet. There is a much bigger difference between wet and dry in a nylon suit than in a spandex one, so you need to get...

Two comments on items above
Old geezer that I am, I not only remember Parr bikinis but I still have a yellow nylon (not chamois) Parr side snap bikini. It's still such a sexy suit that I can't throw it away even though it is...

translate
Not much to translate, the pictures do speak for themselves, but "al fiume" means "to the river". More colloquially we would probably say "on the river".

Early start with Speedos
My interest in speedo style suits goes back to entering puberty. I think early on I found them attractive on other guys and being a bit of an exhibitionist, sexy to wear myself. Around that time I...

Bright colors
I'm partial to yellow/gold/orange suits, but I also like light to medium blue. I don't think dark colors are as interesting.
