If I am not wearing speedos, and there are other guys wearing speedos, I feel like the odd man out. Even a little bit uncomfortable.
Usually, I am the guy wearing speedos.
Sometimes, I have been caught out wearing dork shorts or even jammers (bike shorts style swimwear) and every time that has happened, I have regretted not being one of the speedo guys.
Anyone else experience this?
I bet the guy pictured below in the dork shorts wishes he was wearing speedos.
I do feel like speedos are becoming more popular every year….
I think the brand Budgy Smuggler is really part of the cause getting guys to drop their dork shorts. They are making a bit of fun which is great all round. I’m surprised at the positive response I have had from chicks over the last few years to me wearing speedos in public (pool doesn’t count because most people wear speedos at the pool).
Just yesterday I was at the big shopping center up here and was in a Surf Shop, they had a section of Budgy Smugglers there which was the first time I have really seen them out in the mainstream.
I have only ever owned one pair of them myself (I think they were given to me by the company way back). They were a nice lycra speedo which I loved wearing. No selfies of me wearing them in the archives but here are a couple of pics of them from when I lived on the Central NSW Coast.
If anyone from Budgy Smuggler would like to touch base with me, please drop me an email anytime.
Here is a collection of straight couples wearing Budgy Smugglers together…..
Sorry for jumping off quickly yesterday guys.
I was telling you guys how not only are skimpy thong bikini bottoms the current trend, but I was also surprised that two of the guys speedo’d it up as well. Both were wearing Budgy Smugglers which I really thing have helped get straight guys in to wearing speedos.
This trend, of skimpier swimwear, was even more prevalent yesterday when we went for a hike. The idea/destination for the hike was a swimming hole and it was gorgeous (I didn’t take my phone but I think I’ll try and get back out there in a few weeks time for a quiet swim during the week). There were a bunch of people there but it wasn’t as busy as the beach would be.
To my surprise, of the four of us guys in our group, three of us were wearing speedos and the guy wearing dork shorts got teased for not speedo’ing it up.
Wow, how the tides have turned, it wasn’t long ago when the guy wearing speedos was ridiculed.
Today is my last day hanging out with the crew and tomorrow morning I will cruise back. I am looking forward to Monday waking up in my own bed, not consuming any alcohol (feels like we have been drinking non-stop since Thursday) and doing some exercise. The school holidays will all be over by Monday as well so my lap pool routine should get back to normal.
Right now I am off to play some tennis (it has been 10 years since I played tennis). Not sure speedos will be appropriate for tennis…. but if this trend keeps up, maybe it won’t be long.
