"2015: Year of the Speedo

When I first started this blog a few years ago, images of guys surfing in speedos were hard to come by. A number of surfing blogs claimed that speedos weren’t practical (even though male surfers before the 1960’s wore briefs, and women have always found it practical to surf in bikinis). But I knew that it was a thing, and that it could be more of a thing. So I started collecting pictures and posting them to show the world that yes, men surf in speedos (and it’s really hot). Most of my earliest content came from fashion photoshoots, professional lifesavers, and vintage photography.

In the last year or so, I’ve been able to find a lot more guys surfing in briefs. I’m not sure if it’s just that access to Instagram and other social media networks has generated more images, or if speedos themselves are finally making a comeback from the mid-twentieth century, or both, but it’s official: surfing in briefs is totally a thing, for both gay and straight men. (especially in Brazil, Australia, and the U.S.)

I just wanted to celebrate that!"

So anybody else notice an uptick in speedos at the beach?

I'd say so. I've been going to the beach about 1-2 times a week for close to 10 years now and never noticed any at all. Last year I started wearing them. And last weekend finally saw someone else wearing them.

Glad you posted this about surfing in speedos. I previously saw a couple of posts here that said "it just isn't done" and was scratching my head as to why not and if I was making some mistake by doing so.

Ive only been to the beach once this year (it has rained 25 of the last 30 days now). At some NJ beaches, there are more speedos, but some still dont have any. I guess, it depends where you go.

Ill always have mine on! lol

_su_ ... I never understood that "just isn't done" excuse. Everything can be done in a speedo!

(Not that I actually surf... one of these days I'll learn!)

paspeedo... been a pretty rainy and cool summer here too. I haven't made it to the beach at all yet.
