Good explanations of the correct definitions. Those were what I had learnt of the different styles.
Still, sometimes I did mixing up, may be for quick discussion replies.

For the retailers/designers, they used the term Fundoshi, I guess was for marketing reasons. These are Fundoshi inspired design. Non-Japanese consumers, like me, wouldn't want to tie the cloth underwear everytime going out the door. These G-strings are for people who like the Fundoshi imitation. And also easily searchable online.
