Default New Speedo Solar Prints

I just saw that there are a couple of Speedo's Solar line now available on the Speedo.usa website in a Cammo like print. Not sure I love the specific print, but after a few years of nothing but solids its nice to see them back making printed suits again in this cut.


If anyone on the board orders a pair, be sure to give us a review

I used your link and got hijacked to Speedo's UK site, they don't sell Solars in the UK.

Thankyou, that works, but:
"Product is not eligible for export to the UK"
We are banned from having Speedo Solars but can buy Desmiit from China with 1" sides.
Speedo don't do a 1" brief in the UK and have never done a swim thong here, HOM (France) used to supply UK 1" swim briefs and swim thongs.
Desmiit now do swim thongs too.

The brits are too modest to wear solars. For the sake of god and the queen, keep those sides at 3 inches, minimum!

I remember a few years ago wanting some speedos from a UK site, but they could not ship to them to north America. What is a poor speedo boy to do?
I'll be brief

Speedo UK definitely still sells men's briefs with 5cm sides, which are as small or smaller than the current Speedo US Solar, which is at least 2 inch sides. Solar hasn't been 1 inch for years. I think the Solar is over-pouched, have to wear it down a size from any other Speedo I wear.

The Speedo trademark is licensed to totally different companies in the US and Europe. The European licensee has much better taste, in my opinion.

Speedo US is cracking down on retailers in Europe who will ship European Speedos to the US, but there are still some.
