Hi,
New to the board, but not new to Speedos and smaller bikini suits at all! I've worn them for many years. A favorite was a Male Power suit from a number of years ago, about 1.75" sides, contoured, purple and fucia V-stripes. No problem wearing it all the time in public spaces. Then I got a somewhat smaller lavender suit with contoured front and a sort of shaping back seam. Worn to beaches and pools, no issues, literally wore it out. It was really form fitting, and I got positive comment on a beach once. Of course, it was in Jamaica, and there were guys and gals in thongs out there, so I was not radical at all. A favorite I had a zebra-stripe "Gazelle" suit, about 1" sides, very nice shape, wore that out everywhere too, and wore it out. Lately my go-to has been custom suites by Ron at Buffed Bod. I have several, I favor the animal prints, but like others too. And yes, I've had him make several thongs. The thongs are what I mostly wear now unless there are lots of people around (don't need the attitudes), but the wife loves me in a thong, so that's what I tend to stay in at the lake home and on the boat. I have a leopard g-string suit from Skinz, got a few years on it now, but really like it. It's one of those sliding-front ones, I keep it slid for pretty much just vertical shape. Green is my new color this year, and I have suits from swimoutlet on the way for size by Sporti, fairly small sides, but I haven't seen one yet. They'll be the medium "conservative" ones, and I have some regular shorts/trunks to wear when concerned about anyone's attitudes. There'll be a thong underneath, though, when I want to strip for tanning. Yeah, on tanning, the smaller the better. This summer I'm trying a couple of tan-through suits from Kiniki. We'll see. And I don't swim competitively, but just hate anything big for that. The smaller the better. I much prefer small/tiny suits, but I am sensitive to others, so I keep the smaller stuff and thongs in semi-private situations. And that's where I get the most appreciation anyway. And I have a few years on me now, shape isn't that of a 25 year old any more, but not bad if I do say so. I don't know what people would say to an older guy in a thong, but they may just get their chance! I get my moral support over at the Thong Wearers Message Board. We are not conservative over there at all!!! I think you'd find that many are getting positive response from wearing thongs, so I don't know what the issue is wearing a 2" side speedo. A 1.5" or 2" side Speedo would be fairly conservative for me.

Hello Bede, are you glad with your 1.5 suit? do you wear it often? Is the quality still good?

I find Aussiebum sizing to be inconsistent at times. I have many of their suits and I'd have to say that I only wear maybe one or two of them. I feel like when you buy their suits on sale, the quality isn't as good as when you buy them full price.

Wore them every day in the hotel pool. My wife liked them, and the pool attendant remarked on me being a good swimmer. I said I swam regularly, but considering everyone else was weighed down with board shorts, there wasn't much to beat!
I was quite surprised with Greece. Even at the beaches near Athens I didn't see anyone in Speedos. The convention of the knee-length short is everywhere now!
