Difference Styles Men's Swimwear
How many?
Ideally, you could afford to have
two or three bathing suits per season, but keep in mind how many
times each bathing suit will actually be worn It's more
realistic to buy one or two every season It's a judgment call:
if your bathing suit displays a classic cut, then you can wear
it for many seasons to come If you purchase a trendy bathing
suit, then you'll probably be fed up before the season ends
Speedo
So what are your options when it comes to
buying the right bathing suit? The Speedo type bathing suit
should be banned from your options as it lacks style and is
designed for professional swimmers that need aerodynamics Read
more on Speedos in this previously published fashion tip
Anything that looks like a thong for men
is simply unattractive, tacky and should be eliminated from your
wardrobe Apart from being unattractive, Speedos are
generally uncomfortable because they're tight and rub against
the inner thighs The feeling of discomfort is exactly the same
to that of wearing regular briefs, so imagine when the salt of
the ocean dries up on the tight polyester and slowly grinds into
your inner thighs Speedos have one advantage: they offer great
support
Classic shorts
Why not opt for classic shorts instead? Shorts
are generally less risqué as they reveal just the right amount
of skin and adjust to each individual's physique They are also
extremely comfortable, especially with today's high tech
fabrics, which dry almost instantly We all know how unpleasant
it is to have a wet bathing suit long after the swim is over
Besides, a smooth mesh liner is almost
standard in all new bathing suits Well-designed mesh lining
offers great support without being too tight and unpleasant to
the genitals like the Speedo Regular swimwear shorts are
perfect matches for older, respected men who don't seek
attention and who generally don't care much about fashion They
will usually buy the same shorts in a variety of colors, which
will last them many seasons
Lifeguard shortFor a
younger look, my suggestion is to buy lifeguard short
Lifeguard shorts have been around forever and they portray an
image of youth as well as a healthy lifestyle Everybody
wants to look like those well built lifeguards parading on the
sunny beaches with red lifeguard shorts For those who have
less attractive bodies, Bermuda shorts also help cover up most
imperfections. To sum up, lifeguard shorts finish a few inches
above the knee and fall between a tight fit and a baggy fit
Good draw cord
Both regular shorts and
lifeguard shorts usually have comfortable mesh lining with nylon
shells Make sure that they fit properly around the waist
and feature resistant draw cords The draw cord is usually
one of the first things to go bad on a new pair of shorts
It usually breaks or gets caught inside the lining and thereby
cannot be pulled back out Interesting alternatives are
Velcro straps or, if the shorts fit perfectly, stylish button
flies Skater look
This year, the big thing in
bathing suits is the surfer-skateboard look Look for
shorts that fall at longer than standard length, or ornamented
shorts with Tribal or Asian styled prints Go for colors
like gray, light blue and cream The prints are usually
white or a lighter tone of the same color Try to limit the
number of pockets because the whole "Cargo look" is long gone
