Team England briefs

[Bede735]

Nice maroon briefs to be worn by the England team at the Commonwealth Games:

Shame they don't go beyond a 34" waist.

[SwimTeamSpeedo]

They are nice looking. I suspect they stop at 34 because for the team there is no need for larger sizes.

[Turbofan]

They look pretty good. I like the maroon, though I still think one of the best suits was on the British Olympic divers.

[Bede735]

Though oddly enough the jammers go up to 38" waist.

Put a crown over the lion (which is already on the Bentley grille) and they remind me of this:

(and Arena in gold is an appropriate back-word too to complete the image)

[Bede735]

Been watching the diving at the Commonwealth Games and they appear to be the classiest looking briefs.

On another note I'm surprised how conservative the Australian divers' briefs are.

We in most of the US cannot watch the CommonWealth Games.

Bede - advise Shaulis what best bits have been /might be on YouTube?
(I have been told a diving Gold has come for Jack and Chris of England in the springboard synchro. for one thing)

Remember diving finals tomorrow evening too.

PS: Any stills of Australian divers you mention?

[California Dolphin]

Just get rid of jammers completely and I'll be 100% happy!!! :D

[ec2man]

Yes, I think these England team burgundy Arena trunks are very stylish indeed. :D

[Byron]

New claret Arena team suits looking good and some short BBC footage for Commonwealth Games 2014 diving here:
First is Tom Daley and his new partner taking the Silver Medal for England in the synchro. platform dive (the latter part of filming will show a little of the "conservative" Australian Speedos on the pool deck ).
Second is Jack Laugher on springboard taking Gold for England in his individual routine.
Third is Jack and Chris Mears also taking Gold in their springboard synchro.
