Well, it seems my GF and I will be staying at her parents house for a week later this summer. They have a pool and I will have it all to my self during the day, so that means time to get some tanning time in the sun wearing a thong. However, I do not have a swim thong. I am accustom to the girls bikinis, however the brands I use for bikinis do not make thongs. So I was hoping someone here would be able steer me towards a thong or brand that they like.
I am looking for something in a stretchy material, like a girls bikini bottom. Not the loose nylon mens suit that looks like a plastic bag pulled around the waist. I dont care if its for men or women, as long as it is similar in material to a typical bikini.

Check out www.abcunderwear.com they have all kinds of thongs with all kinds of coverage, designs and materials. Also www.bodyaware.com some great looks too and they really focus on the soft fabrics. Remember that there is really not any difference between underwear and swimwear when it comes to being that naked in a thong. Only concern is transparency when wet.
I remember being in your situation years ago and was merrily floating on a raft catching rays with a g-string (basically a pouch and non-detectable string holding it on) Music playing and me in a fog. Her dad forgot papers and came home to get them -- I opened my eyes to see him standing by the pool staring at my minisquele garment. No way to cover up. He said if I wanted to wear something like that when alone it was fine, but not when any of his family was home and keep shorts handy at all times in case someone comes. He then hooked a bell to the door to give warning.

Be careful here. Women are designed very different from men and as a consequence mens' thongs are very different from womens' thongs. A man's thong is essentially a pouch, a waist band, and a piece of elastic attaching front to rear. In the case of a woman's thong the pouch is generally replaced with just a flat piece of fabric, which probably will not accomodate the male equipment.
The classic male thong design is the blue Speedo thong. Another male design is shown here also. Note how both pouch designs accommodate the male equipment.

Ask nicely and I will make you a swim thong, what colour, what size.
If you are hanging out by the pool you will want a men's swim thong, they are designed to look good wet or dry. A thong not designed for swimming may head south as you head north in the water.

Will make me a swim thong? I will post pics in return! Seriously, you make them? If so I am typically a medium (33") waist. The GF would like a classic black. I prefer a tighter fit, as evident by me wearing girls bikini bottoms. How much would it cost and is paypal good for payment?

Yes i have some wet look black lycra and can make you a swim thong, size medium.
Profile message me an address to send it to.
Once you receive it send a contribution to cover postage, materials etc. if you don't like it then give it away or burn it.
Could do it through Pay Pal somehow.
Have a good summer.

PayPal will only require a commission payment.
Why not simply send dollars? (calculate on a US exchange rate - and round it up a bit to reflect the need for bills and Torchwatch's likely less favorable exchange rate offered in paying-in to his bank).

Thanks for the pvt message notmyj
Will make your new wet look black lycra swim thong on Friday night here in England, and mail it Saturday morning.

I made your thong last night, couldn't find any black lycra so used Space Cadet blue metallic foil print on black lycra. It is like crocodile skin.

Since that wasn't plain black lycra I thought you might also like to try this PU (polyurethane) coated lyca thong. I haven't used this fabric in water before. The old PVC coated lycra used to come off the backing easily if overstretched or wet etc. It looks like rubber and you might enjoy it.
Let everyone know how it feels and lasts.

Both items going in the mail now.
Hard to photograph an 3D object while holding it flat.
Also hard to reduce photo size to be accepted here.

Has anyone tried Skinzwear? I've thought about getting this, but I don't know if their quality is good.

I've also thought about the Wicked Weasel 449 Hipster, though I don't know if it would fit male anatomy.

Thong designs vary a lot, especially with respect to the size of the pouch and exactly how they fit in the back. Generally, I think the thongs with pouches designed to contain the male equipment look better and sexier on guys than thongs that have little or no room and thus the equipment gets pressed back (as in thongs designed for women). The whole idea of a thong for men is to push your equipment both up and forward by pressing everything upward in the perineum area and a woman's thong cant do this correctly. In the back, some thongs are designed with wider elastic, designed to fit over, but not inside the butt crack. The Skins thongs go the other way, a narrow and tight elastic band that when worn properly fits well inside the butt crack almost becoming part of you. Guys are divided on all of this, Some (me included) really like the feel of the elastic deep inside the butt crack (you WILL know its there if the thong fits properly). Other guys are terrified of the whole idea of the elastic crawling way up into the butt like this. One thing for sure: the thongs that fit way in the butt crack will make their presence known all day long, and tend also to be the ones that put the most steady upward pressure on the perineum area, which can be teriffic fun, even if some guys are terrified.
I have recent experience with this. I went to a movie yesterday wearing one of the latter under my jeans and I felt really good throughout the movie.

The photos of Skinzwear above appear to be G strings or posing pouches, the sides and rear are simply elastic, they will tend to cut in rather a lot.
A thong has a leg hole each side like a bikini but cut away at the back,it is more comfortable as it cuts in less than a G string.
A G string is much easier to make, all you have to do is sew the 2 sides of the pouch together then sew in the elastic. Can knock one together in minutes, just choose your fabric. A g string is very liable to slip away if you swim in it.

A cockring might do as well?
sebbie
06-24-2012, 04:47 PM
not really...the upward and forward pressure with the thong comes from the upward pressure on the "taint" ..the cockring is no where near that point.
Byron
06-24-2012, 07:36 PM
:confused: You got me worried there - either I have been wearing a cockring in the wrong place for years, or I am anatomically deformed in
the area of the perineum !
However, as I learn that "the term generally includes the genitals and anus"
I am happy that my "taint" is where it should be and that I can continue to enjoy my uplift.

Hey Torchwatch. I saw this post from years ago, I am looking for a forest green or hunter green speedo thong in med or large. Do you know if these exist in that color?
