Are there any good Speedo knock-offs?

I wear a Speedo under my board shorts when I swim. I hate how if I sit wrong you can see my wang since board shorts don't have linings. Speedos underneath are awesome.

Nice subtle "I have big wang" brag.

I wear board shorts, I have the same problem, just own it.

Sounds like you're a nevernude. I think you just need some jean shorts that would work under your board shorts.... May I suggest:

NSFW!

[Northendzone]

just go commando in the board shorts - it is in there hidden away sort of like a giant bell.

on the plus side, maybe you'll start getting pictures of some anonymous dude going around to various pool parties in vegas and having the time of his life and full-filling his destiny in your speedo's

You can buy shorts with the net that act like a speedo would in this case.

They're all nerdy, though.

Boxer briefs stay wet. So if you swim for a while, then just hang out at the lake, it's uncomfortable. Not a big deal at a pool where you're in, out and gone within 90 minutes, but spending a day in wet boxer briefs sucks.

This is just Sliver trying to get a bunch of guys to Google inappropriate things at work.

That's really all I need. Never heard of them before. I'll check out swimco this week. Thanks man!

Try the Under Armour website, I imagine they would have some sort of non-cotton underwear that would be good for what you want.

Oops sorry, that line is missing a comma after the word board shorts and not a specific product offered by Swimco. I'm essentially saying any pair of underwear that is not cotton could work fine and you could scope Swimco for an acceptable alternative at your leisure. A "dual purpose" silk one could possibly work as well.

Underarmor seems to have something like that that's a polyester/spandex blend. Buy a multi pack and set one aside for swimming? Maybe some option at Winners?

It's difficult finding a pure Nylon/polyester/spandex option in briefs though. Boxer briefs seems to have significantly more options. Pure/90%+ polyester briefs seem easier to obtain in Asia. Not sure why they're so much more difficult to obtain here.

EDIT: I might be slightly wrong. Looks like Swimco is offering Saxx underwear on their website as an "accessory". But at $30 a pop, you're better off waiting for a deal on speedos.

Don't forget the "I'm hangin' wang in Vegas" brag. The guy is a world traveler and is large in the lap area. Slick combo.

Maybe I'll try my Saxx before buying anything, then? My entire fleet is Saxx now after I loaded up on a sweet boxing day sale they had a few months ago.

Hah, do you have an inny or something? If you have a dick, and you're wearing board shorts, I don't understand how you couldn't encounter a situation in which your wiener would get exposed now and then. I prefer to not subject people to that mess.

Trying hard again? Will this go with your clip on tie?

For anyone who might be looking for a suit, a great option is Team Aquatic.

https://www.team-aquatic.com/store-locations

Its in the south, a couple of minutes away east of Chinook.

Great selection and if your looking for something cheap they have a discount bin with past season suits for as low as $5 or $10.

Are we talking the cotton walking around "board shorts"? Or actual board shorts designed for surfing?

Because the latter actually (sometimes) has a liner, and the better ones have neoprene/Lycra that goes across the "fly" to keep everything contained and hidden if the drawstring comes loose.

I'm confused as to how a wiener can get exposed in actual board shorts unless it's on purpose. Or they fly off on the water slide.

You stop reading at the first line?

I think you are confusing "exposed" like dropping out. This is a Lob Knob issue, this is a wet material sticking to you issue.

Just adjust post swim.

Yeah, but also when you're laying on the beach and then put your knees up, or sometimes just sitting in a chair by a pool, where people are eye level with your shorts. I think this is a great idea. I know it's not like there is a wiener exposing epidemic (neither with the material cling, or even accidental exposure from your shorts going up or down), but from a comfort perspective, this is a brilliant idea. Keeps everything nice and comfortable.

I am going speedo shopping before the next time I swim. I can't believe I never thought about this before. High five, Sliver.

Just duct tape it to your inner thigh/groin

Do you mind not bogging down yet another thread with your boring minutia?
