Default Desmiit

I used to wear Desmiit suits for lap swimming for hundreds of kilometers of swimming. They have been my favorite for quite awhile. They feel great but were of the brief (very low waist) type, not the square cut.

Quality is great and the cut is very good for me. Extremely comfortable but went through 1 suit every month or so of daily swimming. Still not too bad for 10 dollars I think.

As for the New Zeland suit of the OP I have one but never swam in it. Much sturdier with less give than Desmiit. Will try it in the pool eventually.

Default Desmiid

How can you go through a suit in a month - does the material wear out or the seams give in? Is this because the quality of poor? Is the chlorine in your pool strong? I can wear suits out but in a year - but then I dont swim every day.

I guess lots of chlorine, lower quality materials and/or misuse.
I just rinse my suits right after every swim while taking a shower. No soap or anything, just rinse with warm shower water then roll the suit into my towel after dressing, until I get back home to hang dry.

So probably the really big part of this is I like them snug enough that my body parts don't move around while swimming. That kind of stretches the material so its the material itself that lets go. Seams are always fine when I throw away a suit, its just the material that loses elasticity and stays stretched so the areas that are stretched become more see through and ''unsupportive''.

Probably some people would still use the suits more than I do but for 10$ I just switch colors or designs.

And NSA or Yingfa suits seem to be better than Desmiit as far as durability. I do close to 2 months with them. Still not much but price/durability ratio is also similar at 15$ per suit.

I don't do much more than you with my suits after swimming. I like your ideas and suspect I would enjoy seeing you in those tight suits. I will try for a pair of Desmiits somehow, just for fun.

The neighbours will notice if you cut the lawn in Desmiit bikini briefs. No telling what they'll do if you wear a Desmiit thong.

Default New Zealand suit

I did try the New Zealand suit from the original post today to swim some laps. That was the first time I tried them in the water and its probably going to be the last LOL. They feel terrible for me. I chose sizing just on the snug side and these suits being fully lined the material over the butt cannot stay still so every push off the wall I can feel that material flapping around.

Not good.

Went back to Desmiit about an hour later in another pool (the first one was way too crowded so me and my young friend decided to just switch pools). These feel great, much greater than any Nabaiji I ever tried actually.

And then tonight I went again in a new Arena suit that I got quite awhile ago but never used it yet. It was just a tad too large but still stayed in place pretty good. This one is a keeper.

As for my young friend he likes his Nike blue and white patterned briefs. Quite rugged material and double lined but he likes them which is great. We don't see too many 14yo boys in briefs these days!

Just for reference and size comparison I go XXL in Desmiit and 34 inch waist in arena. As for Nabaiji I don't know, the tag as been cut.

DESMIIT suits are great. I have a few ones in low cut brief I used to swim laps and the quality is very good. Very narrow sides as I love and a low rise too. They are stretchy so very comfortable. I rinse them with clear water after use.
I also have a DESMIIT thong I wear in my own pool. Good quality too, and very sexy.

If you wear a thong in your pool, why not just go nude?

I have considered cutting my front lawn in bikini briefs, but never had the courage to do so. I live on a busy through street. If I lived on a cul de sac, I would.

You are right, I sometimes go nude, but I love thongs for keeping all in place, and for tan lines. Halfway between nude and brief...
