Default White Speedo update and your opinions needed!

Hey yall!

So I just wanted to let yall know that I went swimming with my friend who gave me these white speedos. We swam so hard that the "Speedo" sticker fell off I guess there was too much chlorine in the water.
As many of you know, I'm looking for some new swimwear, especially after the stupid Speedo sticker fell off. I was wondering if you guys could recommend me a style/color that would look good for my body style. I'm a competitive swimmer and triathlete so I am looking for something sporty but something that looks good with my body type.


Thanks a lot!

Low-cut for your body type and Aqux already suggested.
Btw is the blue suit by Speedo and are you seriously telling us that the logo disappeared off the white one in just one swim session? (where made?)

They're both made by speedo. I'm not sure why but the sticker just came off on the white one. I didn't even noticed it until I got to the lockerroom. Weird.

How lucky you were to have the sticker fall off. I hate advertising for swimsuit manufacturers. Some of them as so damn big I feel like a Nascar car.

Agree - what's the Chinese brand with the rear and side digits -
so big that they can't be contained within the space available ?

Not a manufacturing mistake - a style statement of course but trying just a liitle bit too hard to be different I think.

Seobeam (hope I spelled it right) has some sporty racer designs just like Aqux. I have seen them selling on Ebay for about $10 with free shipping sometimes.

Byron's comments not withstanding, I really like my Seobean with the partial number on the rear. Keep in mind, however, that these are really low cut esp in the rear, and may not provide as much coverage in the rear unless you size up. I think the design is way cool.

There is a version w/o the partial number

The Chinese have there own rather complex alphabet and use our alphabet and Arabic numbers without too much reference to meaning. Since the partial number logo may not mean much to many of their wearers it doesn't matter to them that it is cut off.

You can say that again - the suit I wanted to show had I think a bit of 7 in 27.

Sebbie has presented three good links and my effort should have reproduced the second.

I like this brief dark blue one but it is a complete mystery with big logo "T"
Aliexpress is Chinese I think and they list it here as a sexy seoban swim short (hold your breath):
