Here in Melbourne Australia there are Speedo stores in some of the major shopping centres, and the major sporting shops sell swim briefs. There is also a chain of swimwear shops that has about 5% of the shop as men's swimwear, of which 1/4 is briefs. The problem I have is that all these retailers seem to sell black and navy briefs almost exclusively, so if you want something else the options are far more limited. The up-market department stores used to have a good range of swim briefs, but now they only seem to stock black and navy Speedo brand briefs. Daily Jocks has a shopfront in Melbourne, which I visit now and then. It seems though that the available briefs are headed in two directions - as boring as possible, or as exhibitionist as possible. There are few exceptions to these extremes, with briefs that are (in my opinion) comfortable, classy, suitable for wearing in any public situation, and not boring.
