Default Parr of Arizona was ground-breaking

I was blown away by the that design and how they did that. I loved the feel of those. And I was absolutely amazed, with my small size down there (that normally disappears in most gear), how they actually made me look like I was male !

I am going to have to save up some money right quick to get some swimsuit styles and other items that I always wanted but never purchased!

These are my initial purchases from Parr of Arizona back then. The blue is a cotton-based blend, while the red is a nylon-based blend. These are underwear not swimwear. And sorry for the tangent veering slightly off topic.
