Hi Speedoians.... I'm new to this board and enjoy wearing speedos much like all of you. Although my collection of speedos has dwindled over the last few years, at one time I did own 35-40 different types of "speedos".

Anyhow, as the title of this post suggests, there was this one speedo that I wish I had purchased many, many years ago.

It was around 2002-2003 I think when I saw it. It was an actual Speedo branded suit and it was available on their website. It was a 1" bikini much like the Solar, but had a beach scene printed on it. If I remember correctly, it had a pic of a Woody wagon with a surfboard on it with some other scenery and came in a pinkish color and blue. I remember saying to my girlfriend at the time (now my wife) that it was a cool swimsuit, but I wasn't that bold enough to wear such a pattern. At the time, all I could handle was solid colors if I was even able to wear one at all in public. Since then I've worn speedos all over in a variety of patterns.

I know this is a tough one to try and remember, but have any of you ever seen or even purchased this one that I speak of? I haven't seen it anywhere since, not even on eBay.

Ok it's not a Lycra fabric but you could make some nice short shorts from it.

Here's the suit you missed, if you can fit into a size 32. Speedo Solar runs a little more roomy than the racing styles.

Back in the late 1980s there was a Fila store in Scottsdale, AZ and I tried on one of their racer briefs. It was fashioned like Japanese swimwear. I didnt buy it because of the fit (showed pubes) and it was $50. Little did I know that I liked the pubes showing. Attached is a pic of the style of the suit.

Hey, need4speedo, that sounds like a great suit. I do not recall seeing it.

I do not mean to hijack this thread, but I guess someone else had the idea, first, to contribute their own lamented loss... so I will add one of mine.

This N2N suit is one I wish I could have gotten. I did not know about N2N or this suit until after the suit was discontinued. But I sure wish I could find it in Large. I love how it looks like a thong back. It is very flattering, in my opinion.

I agree CapJam. Hot suit.
