favorite style and brand

[michaelian49]

By far my favorite swimsuite is an Aussiebum loose, 1.5 inch. I love the great tan lines you get from it.

I love the aussiebum looks but never could find one that would fit

seobean. Really love the ones with 1inch sides and show a little cheek. Also they seem to hold up really well.

I generally like traditional Speedo brand suits, especially now that they have crazier patterns. But i also like how i look in the skimpier AB suits, too, the 1.5" sides, and they're really comfortable.

Also Aronik, which is a lot more expensive but the material is great and so are the patterns.

I am a Neptune Scepter lover because I like the low hip, comfortable pouch, and quality control in the material and stitching. Th tight fit is for me since I do lap swimming and do not want a suit flapping around.

My favorite at the moment is a black Aussiebum with Wonderjock.

Past favorites now gone included a flat-fronted, narrow-sided bikini from Parr of Arizona.

But my all-time favorite was from Missoni Mare. Apparently Missoni is out of the men's swimwear business now. My suit was from the mid 80s, was made of a fine knit cotton and lycra blend, had about 2" sides and, best of all, had the classic colorful Missoni stripe pattern. I bought it in Century City, probably at Bullock's. I don't remember what it cost, but I was in college. So it couldn't have been that much.

I like the Aronik and Hom microbriefs. The Aussiebum 1.5 does look good, but the thinness of the material is a real drawback.

Yes, Aussiebum are always baggy and saggy in the bum. I am Auusie myself, but dont buy them for that reason. I prefer nylon for the thin fabric. Pity about the fit of Aussiebums.

Aussie brand Marcuse make the AREST ME style. Very low rise in the front and good seat coverage. Need to keep bush trimmed unless you like the natural length of your bush to be visble. The Marcuse model shown as RED in photo on earlier post are another of the favourites. All very low rise in front, but with a medium pouch to not squash the goodies inside.
