I’m new to the forum but I have enjoyed reading all these awesome stories and posts about speedos!
I got into speedos in my early 20s when I was living at the beach in So Cal. I was shopping for a swimsuit at TJ Maxx and came across a light blue pair of speedos. I worked up the courage to buy them, and never looked back. I just fell in love with everything about them. How they fit and, better yet, how they made me feel. I used to love going to the beach after work when I was single, and just laying out in my black and blue Arena suit, or going to the jacuzzi at the apartment complex to relax. I inadvertently got my first speedo tan in 2000 and it was amazing!!
As I got older, married, had kids and moved around the country I continued to wear them, though usually under board shorts as the US got more “conservative”. When my wife and I traveled abroad, pre-kids, I would more often wear just my speedo. She always put with me.
Now I’m living in the south, and Speedo opportunities are much less, but I’ve re-started working on my tan in the backyard when the humidity isn’t too high. I want to get back that speedo tan from long ago. I currently own about 15 pairs.
Aside from speedos, I love my underwear collection. I have been buying Aussiebums since they first appeared online 20+ years ago, but I’ve branched out to other brands, like Clever and C-in2 and several others. Currently have about 175 pairs of briefs, thongs and jocks. I don’t much care for boxers or boxer briefs, though I do have a few. I always told my wife, better underwear than sports cars!
Anyways, just wanted to introduce myself and say G’day.
