Cotton in speedo?

[I'll be brief]

Hello all,
I just saw a plaid Speedo from the late 90'slisted on ebay. It is 66% cotton along with nylon and spandex. I have never heard of cotton in a speedo. Does anyone now how well they wear. It is a nice looking suit, but I do not if I should bid or not.

For a brief point in time (no pun intended) Speedo marketed Speedo branded underwear. I think you are seeing that.

Thank you Sebbie,
I am sure that this is a swimsuit, I recall seeing them advertised back then. I remember speedo's attempt at marketing underwear.

Gazelle made a brief-I have one and it is the softest most comfortable one I have-swam laps last week-still holding up.Nearly 100 pc cotton!

The Speedo underwear that I have does not mention cotton.

My database indicates it was called Speedo Axcelerate. Made of nylon/elastine at a 96%/4% blend.

Anyone remember (probably now defunct) Gazelle Swimwear ?
Back in 1988 JG (Australian fashion designer, resident in Chicago)
proposed his new cotton and cotton/lycra mix suits.
They were to be good for divers with extra grip at the waist and
leg openings so that the force of water entry did not bring the suit
down to the ankles.
Seem to have disappeared without trace now.
