Default PS on HOM

Haven't looked at their suits for a long time but now decided I prefer their underwear these days (which is how they started en France of course):

I have to say that I do like the thin side bikini cut but the cut follows to the the back (butt) a little too far. Don't you think? I prefer the 1-1.5" side cut, but want it to cover about 3/4 of my butt.

What brand is this from france?

Default cut

Yes, that was underwear and probably more of a thong in design (which I don't find comfortable but was enjoying the front view).
The brand is HOM Joe - as you will see in the pic and for which you should read posts #23 and #24.
HOM started in Marseilles with men's underwear in 1968 and later added speedos to their range. The brand now belongs to German conglomerate Triumph International (the girls will recognise Triumph as a long-time producer of their swimsuits).
You might care to have a look at http://www.hom.com/en/sous-vetements-homme/histoire/
You can select English but if you come across French sous-vetements are underwear and maillots de bain are speedos.

My favourite French underwear manufacturer is Dim, most of the Dim stuff I bought in a Boulonge hypermarket some years ago has now worn out and the company website don't deliver to UK, so will have to head out there again some time.

Thanks Byron! I checked out the website and the HOM are sure a bit pricey. I will wait for my ARRESTME bikini. Hopefully I will be able to make a trip to Rio de Janiero and wear it everyday on Ipanema beach!

I just found out I have to get a visa to travel to Brazil (

Default Good luck

A lot of international security arrangements have changed since 9/11 but don't leave it until 2016 as a flight booking may be impossible to obtain.

Btw you might ask the Brazilians what it's like to travel in reverse as US Homeland Security is I believe under pressure to reduce the four and five hour delays for incoming passenger vetting at the international airports.

Dommage - missed DIM as my last visit to the hypermarket (Auchan) in Boulogne was concentrated on seeking some Chateau Neuf Du Pape and some St. Emilion et divers bouteilles moins cher que l'Angleterre ! Nice day trip to
include lunch within the impressive city walls up near the basilica however.

I didn't know DIM brand and they do it seems have speedos also (DIM Paris
seems to concentrate on ladies' lingerie).
Best pic I could find - not very impressive I'm afraid:

Any progress on retracing your source for the pic Joe?
Here is where he also appears - it's the same pic as
you will see - but still no background info. to be found.

honestly Byron, I have not even had a chance to search. Thanks for the update though. I'm thinking it might be a ArrestMe, like you intially suggested, possibly in the Aussie waters?

Sure would love to have a tunneling buttcrack like that. Need to hit the squat machine hardcore again

AFEWGOODMEN, have you do weight training often? Squat is quite danger for people don't know the correct posture/form and lifting too heavy. If you are a beginning, make sure you seek correct instructions before going hardcore.
