Default how many suits do you own? for now

I'm not sure if this question had been made before, but anyway if so, the answers now would have changed.

so, I only have 3 Turbos (2 briefs, 1 "tank trunk", well, so they name it) 1 japanese arena (very small and feels great) and one water polo suit of from the Botafogo wp team from Rio, Brazil.

very small collection, indeed, and although never had the opportunity to wear them in a swimming pool or at the beach, I love and take care of this collection like a treasure. for me is like gold!

thanks for your answers!

Default sorry

I tried unsuccessfully to find some pic of this Botafogo suit I own, is made by a peruvian wp suits producer called Vista Water Polo. maybe should make one thread on this mark that makes suits for many national teams.
its also ironic, that Peru (where speedos-style suits are a rarity) produces suits for a giant like Brazil where they have lots of producers.

I have many swimsuits from a few manufacturers. My new favorite are my Turbo suits.

I've got 17 brief swimsuits, 7 of which I use for swimming laps. My favorites are the Turbos, Sportis, and Nikes.

Too many to count, last time I counted the total was someplace in the 70's as I recall. But, I have lots of older suits from my younger days, they still fit but I don't wear them often. At least a dozen go back to my college days and one or two are end of high school.

I just did a quick count of 60 briefs and 5 squarecuts, plus a drawer half full of older ones I don't wear anymore. Mostly Speedo, quite a few Adidas, some Aussiebums, some Slazengers, then some 1sies or 2sies of Billabong, O'Neill, Geronimo, Scheisser, Garneau, Joop and Hom. AND I don't even swim. I wear them in my yard, and riding my bike. I got hooked on them as a kid and never stopped.
