Thongs

[Tsbailey47]

I've had two Speedo brand thongs and didn't like the fit. When the waist was the right size - not extremely tight - it came up higher than I liked - almost to my navel. I've had much better fitting swim thongs than those made by Speedo.

I have many swim thongs, including two speedo thongs. They do cover a bit more than most thong swimsuits, but on more conservative (but still thong-legal) beaches, they tend to be better received. Perhaps the speedo logo gives them some beach cred that other, less-known, brands don't have

I have several thongs and jockstraps just to mix it up, my go to undies are Piado bamboo briefs or 2xist contour briefs in a variety of wild colors I even still have a few CK tightly whitey briefs that are several years old but they are so comfy I just do not want to get rid of.

Briefs guy only, cannot stand boxer briefs as the legs ride up, less material the better. Regular boxers are so boring and not comfortable. I do have a few pair of shorty trunks or square cuts which are very similar to briefs.

Speedos and briefs offer the best feel and comfort to me. I can wear a thong but not everyday as I just don't find them as comfortable, but they are super sexy!

I love thongs as well! I wear one as underwear every day and wear swim versions at clothing optional type places (beaches, resorts, etc).

I often wear thongs at crowded beaches, I like the flat front kind that are tight enough to stay on in rough surf.

I wear thongs almost exclusively as underwear. I've become used to wearing thong swimsuits most of the time at different beaches and haven't had any problems. The may not be 'mainstream' but lately I don't see that people really care.

Well I switched to thongs at the beach a year ago.
Not easy the first time but so comfortable!
I also wear skimpy briefs if the beach is crowded with families, but now thongs are accepted if it is not too revealing at the front. So I wear black thongs with a classic fit.

Do you wear them on beaches in the US or elsewhere? Curious because here is Southern California I rarely see guys in thongs. I started wearing them last summer but so far only at home by the pool. At the beach it’s still baggy trunks for me, until I get the courage to wear something skimpier.

Never been to California beaches, just Florida and Hawaii. Florida is a challenge because they're frequently too crowded to feel comfortable. Hawaii has some nice beaches that are hard to get to but worth the effort. Mostly local islanders. Never had a problem. Everybody just keeps to themselves.
