![]() I swim 3500 - 4000 yards every day and wear several white background Turbos as part of my swimsuit collection. I have never had a see thru issue, not even remotely. Hard Core Swim has some cool white base suits, also. They put a grey inner liner in the critical front parts so while the sides can get a bit sheer all your best attributes are adequately covered. I am sure PSDave is right, but I am not convinced AB suits are really built for the rigors of lap swimming (yes, I own several pair, but more for fun than swimming).

![]() Two thoughts:
First, according to Aussiebum the sheer rating is 1/10 so it is very low, or not at all. Second: Aussiebum has a 90 day return policy if not satisfied. So if you get it - its not as opaque as you would like it, send it back. I have had one Aussiebum white lycra blend and it wasn't transparent at all but I gave it away. |

![]() Truwest.com makes a great white suit. It is on the water polo section and then the Euro-cut all-poly section. You might want to buy a size larger than your usual lycra because the stretch isn't that great and frankly your junk could get a little crowded.

The shipping is not cheap so you might as well get several. I also have coral, orange and purple. These suits last a long time. Much longer than lycra. |

I did this on a quiet beach south of Cancun several years ago. The resort was owned by a Spanish company, and so they had a fairly significant European clientele, so speedos on guys, even older out-of-shape ones (gee, like me) were not at all unusual. Most of them only wore them while lying on the beach, and when they got up to go in, they put shorts on over them. There were a few younger and in shape guys with them as well, but not a lot. They were generally with the topless girls, which was also quite common there. I decided I'd do the same. While lying in a beach chair under the palapa, I quietly slid off my shorts and had on just a basic black speedo. I was like that probably two hours, and she never noticed till I got up to go and was putting shorts back on to walk to our room. She wasn't happy - I was cracking up laughing, as were the other couple that was with it who also thought it was hilarious. WTH - it's not like anyone else at that resort knew who I was or would ever see me again. If your wife is rocking a tiny bikini, my guess is you will look good in yours as well. Just go for it. |
