I don't know specifically, but eBay would probably be your best bet.

Looks like a Speedo Aquablade suit. I have one in black. I don't believe Speedo sells them anymore.

I have to buy those cuts from Europe stores. Why don't you try
www.swiminn.com but not sure on that color.

I think the Sporti Euro swim brief from swimoutlet.com is close to what you are looking for.

This looks like a standard speedo racing brief. Check swimoutlet.com. I don't think it's the Aquablade. The blade uses a tech fabric with a distinct pattern in the weave, though that might have changed.
Here's a speedo solid from Swimoutlet. Couldn't find the color in your post, but I didn't do a complete search.

Here's the Speedo Aquablade with the striped pattern in the weave. Only in black now.

There used to be a European version of the Blade. One of the colors of the Euro version was maroon. It had narrower sides. A really great suit designed for competition or lap swimming. I never was able to get one. Not available in the USA. A suit that looked good and was designed for swimming.

Definitely looks like an Aquablade to me. Does it have the rear seam?
The maroon was a lot rarer than the black or blue.
I haven't seen one come up on eBay in Maroon/Burgundy for awhile. Have seen purple and red, which were also limited colours. The purple was the design that had "Speedo" written in the middle at the front rather that the smaller logo in the front corner.

Good luck.

That's the suit I recall. One of the nicest ever made. Judging by the bids. I guess others feel the same way. It also had a two color weave draw string. Somewhat rare for a Speedo brand.
I have a USA brand Speedo in forest green. Another color that's discontinued. Not sure that was a colour in the Europe/U.K. Aquablade. The cut of the Blade in that market had narrower sides. Even with the wider cut, the USA version fit and looked great. I'm a 30. Wish I was a 32.

There was a forest green colour released in the UK market specifically for a few different private boys schools uniforms. Can't remember who was selling it. Couldn't get one shipped at the time though.
