N2N Video

After seeing rozelle's cool video post, I thought I'd share a link that I got in an email from N2N a couple days ago. It's a video with the man who founded the company. It all started when he bought a turquoise brief suit in Acapulco and then couldn't find one to replace it, so he made his own. He made them for people who saw him in his suits and liked them. Then he went into business.

A man with vision. Pity his designs didn’t catch on with the masses

You're right. His designs never made it to Macy*s like 2(x)ist and some others. Still, he's found a market that's likely made him a decent living.
I like the part where he basically says, "A lining? Who needs a lining?
"
In the clips of the models, I saw a suit I bought on sale a few years ago. It's a green speedo style suit. It doesn't show off the boys as much as his other styles. You could use it for lap swimming, although the fabric probably won't stand up to chlorine for long. Still, it fits well and is very comfortable.
At the end of the video, I like it when he says, in so many words, be yourself and speedo on.

Oh, to be chiseled and sexy though, eh? Unfortunately there is no attire in creation that would make me look good. I have ungodly folds of excess skin to deal with and losing more weight just makes that aspect worse.

The editing is so fast that my reaction time with the pause button is too slow.

N2N, yeah a California company and I have bough a lot of items from them over the years. One of my first jammers was their supper low cut draw string swim jammer in 2007. I have three of them today. I think I have maybe 5 swim thongs called enhanced. I don’t remember any of them being lined. So every ridge is displayed. What’s Aussiebums saying, we if you doubt yourself wear something else! Well N2N is that way... they have some good items.

Hey rozelle. Glad you liked it. I've only bought a few things when they've had them on sale. The suits and underwear I bought a few years ago are conservative compared to what they sell today.

Tex.... N2N stuff is bold, and they never have linings. I also liked the style of the jammers, but I don't see them for sale anymore. They were very low cut and looked good. My speedo cut N2N suits are cool. I forget the style name. They don't sell them anymore either. The selection has changed.

Tom,
Your are right about bold... I have about 3-4 our day f their low cut jammers... almost super low... definitely form fitting and low waisted. I still have about 5 pair of their runners, and long low waisted boxers like hammers and crack showing in them for sure. Yep, not lined either...
I own a pair of their Charlie jeans too, they are stretch and low cut... but functional. They also put a silver brad on the lower crotch, hey look at me... I haven’t work those pants since 2007-2008. Yep, I have quite a bit of N2N stuff and for the most part very happy. In fact a pit of their dream line brief in now after 10 years they are still holding up.

I"ve bought several N2N briefs since 2012. The 1st was the Prism, which is usually my 1st suit of the year - very popular! I bought the green (olive according to N2N) next. Sunned in it at hotels a few times. Then the royal - swam laps in hotel pools a lot in that one. Pretty low in the rear(!). Then the mandarin, which is so sheer I haven't worn it in public yet! (And I like the color of the AB WJ tangerine much better). Last, the goldenrod, but haven't worn it yet.

Speaking of N2N, I just bought their ON-SALE Classic Prime Sport in white (since they're unlined, THAT should be interesting wet!!!!!), and what looks like a sexy Vintage Catalina Sport in Faded Green (also interesting wet!) -
https://n2n-bodywear.myshopify.com/coll ... w-n2n-swim. US$20 each.
I'll try them at the hotel pool I crash to sun. I still love the N2N Prism, that I've worn at that hotel pool to start my tan, but now long discontinued.
