![]() Having always been a swimmer, mine started back in the day when lifeguards only wore speedos, it was pretty much the norm around here and nobody gave it a second thought. Speedos were also fairly easy to come by, keeping in mind this was pre-internet. I've always worked, even from a young age, back then I had a collection of about 3 to 5 suits. I also had a good friend who worked part-time as a lifeguard who only wore swim briefs, and as he would grow out of his suits , he'd pass them onto me.
I can remember looking forward to the Spring/Summer catalogues that would come out so I could see what styles were coming out for the new year. Or I would go to the corner convenience store and pick up the latest International Male magazine. Of course with the internet, I now have a few speedo-themed websites I enjoy visiting on a regular basis to get my fix. I have a good sized collection and I wear one proudly for my daily swims. I enjoy seeing other guys wearing them and I'll probably continue to wear them as long as I can. |

![]() My mother bought me my first "Speedo" when I was 10 or 11. Green and white color block and very small.
I did not understand my arousal when I first put it on, and even more so when I was around others, especially girls. When I was in my teens and going to swim parties I always wore Speedos which I bought myself. Guys were a 50/50 mix of briefs and jammers. Stopped wearing them in mid life, but now I enjoy them again. Guess it's true, life is a circle that completes itself. Last edited by Jerry : 03-22-2015 at 01:28 PM. |

![]() I've worn brief suits and square cuts since I was a teenager in the 60's. I eventually stopped wearing the square cuts (I don't like the way they look anymore) and have continued wearing briefs to this day. Like Turbofan, I don't consider wearing brief suits a fetish; I just like them, they way they look and the way other guys look in them. My wife really likes them on me and when I was looking for new suits when I began to swim seriously last June, I found the style and brand I liked (with input from Turbofan, Shaulis and STS) and she picked out the suits she liked the best.

![]() I found a speedo retail store in a mall when I was a teenager...it didn't last long but if it was still around I'm sure I'd have a store credit card with a huge balance by now...lol. Have any of you guys ever been to one? It was fantastic, racks filled with every style, I even got a blue thong from there. I still have the thong and a squarecut and a 3" side from that store and I had to throw out 2, 1" sides from there that just wore out. Since then my collection has grown so much from online stores that I have more suits than opportunity and places to wear them. Recently I've purchased a few suits from h&m in store and they seem cheaply made but are cute. Has anyone had any luck with h&m?

![]() my interest in speedos started strangely enough not with swimming but with watching pro wrestling, back in the days when it seemed all the guys wore brief trunks. I loved the look and envied them their bodies. From teens onward I always admired and respected guys who wore speedos at the pool, it was such a declaration of self-confidence!
It took until my early 30s before I gained the level of self-confidence required to wear speedos to the pool. To me the appeal is the practicality, the comfort, and the appearance. They feel great to wear. And I feel like I'm ten times more the man than guys in baggy shorts coz I have the confidence in my own appearance to wear them. And glad to see that there's plenty around here who feel the same! |
