If you're going with Aussie cossies — swim briefs were invented Down Under — check out Funky Trunks. Team GB is even onboard.

Funky Trunks has great designs and they are not a walking advertisement. Daniel and Jack wearing them really turn me on as always, what a bummer they're straight.
Speedos are the best swimwear around. Period.

Funky trunks are ok as far as fit goes, they have some great designs but I just don’t find them very comfy to wear. Plus when a size sells out that’s it gone, no re-stock. You choose from what’s left or wait for the next lot of new designs which is anything from 6 - 12 months. I have two pairs and I don’t wear them.
I also use to buy my boxers from funky trunks but stopped due to the poor stock they keep.
Turbo is a nice brief to wear. The Budgy Smuggler Logo really doesn’t bother me. It’s only the same when a speedo slapped their logo on the rear of their trunks.
Anyway I will shut up now.

I have two pairs of funky trunks swim briefs and budgy smugglers feel better. They feel a bit rougher than other brands.

Budgy Smuggler and funky trunks seem true to size. Adidas and turbo you usually go up a size. Haven’t worn the funky trunks for over 2 years + when I first bought them.

They are too flat in the front, lacking a good pouch. They are also cut too high in the front in my opinion.

I like My budgys, but Sluggers are my favorite. Sluggers.com.au

Super comfortable.

Not gonna lie- I like the print and style of them and how they dont take it serious, but the gigantic logo on the butt deters me.

I like their designs and I would like to get at least one of them.

However, I wouldn't say they're my favorite. I much prefer speedos/swimsuits with narrower sides like 1" inch.
Boardshorts are trash. Wear speedos instead :!: :)

Hey mate
I would go past them both for Marcuse if you're looking for thinner sides. I wear them most days for laps and beach. I have sluggers and they are nice but not as good as Marcuse.
Cocksox are great if you dare
