Since Speedos are skintight, you really need to try one on to see if it fits. Don't any stores in your area carry them? You may find limited colors and selection, but then you'll know what size and brand works for you when you explore the unlimited shopping possibilities of the internet.

Default new speedo

LC is right and determining your size is important. Remember that what you may decide is the right comfortable size for you in one manufacturer's product will not necessarily produce the same satisfaction in another's.

Once you have pinpointed a brand and model you really like a post here will I am sure elicit an opinion from one or more experienced reader(s) about the fit you may expect for your choice.

Default PS to mike

You may observe that Skippy and Maroon have just sorted something out as regards sizing for AussieBums.

Thanks for the information. I went to the store here in nj and I did try on a speedo. I tried on a size 36 and that fit really well on me. I not sure how i looked in it but i did like the feeling of it. Wish there were more colors to pick from

I always pick a size up for speedos I like more of the looseness in front as apposed to that flat squashed look.But I am looking towards the aussiebum as byron said cause I love the look of the aussie lifeguards.But never buy an over large speedo as I made that newbie mistake years ago when I first started buying them,Pretty ugly IMO.
