Yes but it would be easier to buy a 2" Speedo or to make a 2" suit from scratch.
Lowering the waist by an inch will make the Speedos very low cut and look wrong.
The whole suit would have to be redesigned, the waist and leg elastic replaced and any errors would ruin the whole project.
So please don't bother.

Default is it possibe, (JUST ANOTHER THING)

The reason asked this is because I came across a very solid LUSTRE FLEX ONE.
TO SEE IT BROWS OR EBAY - NWT SPEEDO SZ.34 BLACK LUSTRE (or luster) FLEX SWIM RACER POLYESTER FRONT LINES.
ITS A THREE INCH SIDE ANYWAY IT LOOKS LIKE IT, IF IT WAS POSSIBLE TO LOWER IT TO A TWO INCHES SIDES I WOULD OF PURCHASED IT.
TO BAD. HOPE YOU
SEE IT ITS VERY NICE.

To Torchwatch and to whom it may concern to see the suit go to ebay and compose in the search bar- speedo sz 34 black lustre flex swim racing brief 100 polyester.
the suit I would of liked to lower it to a two inch sides.
Notice its worth the money but the shipping charges are extravagant oh well I would of loved to wear such a suit. but since Iv bene introduced to two inches sides I kind of lost interest in three inches sides.

Is these them : http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/NWT-Speedo...AOSwEK9W~z5 Q ?

They are 1970's style 3" nylon Speedos. This was my first pair of Speedos in a size 32", but I soon progressed to a 2" style and then from nylon to Lycra.
$30US + postage (postage to UK is $23US) seems prohibitively expensive unless you want this swim brief for historic collection reasons.

I think the shininess that you are seeking comes from wet look Lycra, polyamide that used to be used in waterpolo suits and from PU Lycra.
