I push the back coverage to 3/4 or 1/2 at my swim club with the encouragement (and amusement) of the staff. It's a incentive to stay in shape or just to make the effort to show up to do laps. My doctors applaud my efforts as well.

So true? My favorite suit is my N2N University. I agree with your summary; it is a great brief but the pouch does bring on many stares (as well as other N2N models), but never a comment of any kind. Are you going to keep wearing it at the pool?

Yes-but sometime over a Caussie-depedig o time of day. I also wear Uiv. Jammers my favorite collars are green and gold-wish more suits were. With the jammers-because of bubble but I make sure to get wet in the prep shower so that it clings and doesn't show crack .

Sorry private message would not go-Don't be concerned about "pouch" not any more noticeable than what divers wear!

To me, "inappropriate" is any suit that is see-through when wet, or so formed as to outline the package. Most briefs without a pouch tightly confine the package to a simple protrusion while the pouch suit can give more definition to package components. I wear the Neptune Scepter suits and the Seobean brief with no pouch, both are low hip cut and have had no reaction from other swimmers to either suit. And they feel great..
