Speedo In the Park

[PSDave]

I remember fondly the nylon speedos of the 80's. It was around that time that Speedo came out with a 1" side suit. I got one in navy blue and spent days in the back yard trying to get the newly uncovered skin tan. Of course the best was yet to come -- about 83-84 HOM came out with the Tanga suit (string sides). They were great. The fit and fabric were far superior to anything I had already owned. I really got noticed at the pool or beach. I miss those days (and suits)

Yes, the 80's had some quite skimpy suits. I always aspired to a HOM suit as described but they were a bit expensive for me then. The HOM micros they produce now are more like the skimpy speedos and very conservative. A local chain of mens fashion stores, Top Man, were selling some really skimpy suits for men and I bought about 3 or 4 in different colours. Likewise in missing those days!
