Does anyone recognize these suits? They are actually probably the same suit; it's just that not each one is identical.



Thanks

Thanks

I wish I knew. But I love the guys wearing them. Their bulges are tempting.

Not sure of the specific brand, but for argument's sake let's call the one on the right 'hot', and the one on the left 'hotter'.

Speedoboi, I hope you're happy to share?

Its got a tab on the seam but the res is low and it doesnt enlarge clearly.

Print patterns in the same style suit and print can be a little different depending on where they cut the suit from the bolt of cloth when the pattern doesn't repeat a lot.

Cool guys the pic.

I believe these were Aussiebums may be the Low Rider range now sold out. At one time, I considered buying this swimsuit with the same pattern. They looked very familiar to me.

Although I can not confirm them, but I had seen them before somewhere! I will have to look closely and think about them.

Hey NJ!!!

You really know your speedos! I spotted the tab and thought it might be Aussiebum but the tab shape looked sort of different. And the image blurred when I enlarged. The tab they have now looks more like a flag. Real distinctive. I know Aussie makes specialty suits that have things like the drawstring tie on the outside and print fabrics.

Do you own any paper suits?? Someone from another board sent me one that was from the 90s. An Arena... very thin fabric that doesn't stretch hardly at all. Very lo cut. Definitely for competition

take care!

Thanks guys! This is why I love this site. NJhunkguy seems to have an almost encyclopedic knowledge of swimwear.

Thanks to Justin's comments I went back to the source and found a larger version of the photo. I was able to get this close up of the tag.



It almost looks like N2N but I'm not sure. The font doesn't seem quite right and N@N swimwear these days doesn't have a tag on the side. Does this help at all?

A quick search on the internet confirmed they were N2N Corona Comp. I did tried to buy it and put it in the basket, but figured too expensive and canceled the order! Nice pattern!

Paper suits, are they swimsuits that are thin and get transparent when wet? Were you referring to a certain brands?

Well, being an only child, sharing isn't a characteristic - but exceptions can be made, so yes, we can share.

Sweeet. You are, as they say, a top bloke.

Thank you so much NJhunk guy. You rock!

I had looked at the N2N website last night but didn't see them there (because they aren't). After searching by the name I did find a cached page on their site where they were offering the suit for $15. Too bad I didn't know about them then.

Anyway, I did more searching this morning to try to find my size. I found a pair on ebay Australia and immediately ordered them. I don't think I'll tell my grandma how I used the money she gave me for Christmas.

Got my new suit! Here's a pic of it.




Thanks again, guys.
