Hi, I've come across some aquablade speedos online (ebay singapour) 'from japan.' But they look more european ie large sides. Question is, if it is japanease - is it conservative enough for a public pool and second of all, does the butt seam enhance the overall, uh, butt. I know there are images online but they all seem photoshoped and worn by models. So if anyone does have aquablades, with an 'average' body, could they post a pic. (Sorry if I do sound pervy, but the postage is pricey lol.) Secondly, what is an Addidas brief from Amazon with the German size of 'Größe: 3' in inches/UK size.

I have a pair of Aquablade" ive gone one size lower"eg lage to medium

Thank you, I've heard that they are inherently designed to be smaller that what the label states, for compression or something? Thanks for the update.

"Größe" in German means "large." I forget if the Japan Aquablade has a butt seam or not. My Aqux has a mesh butt seam. Its umm very form fitting. Not a comp suit. I could never wear it to a public pool here in the U.S . Aquablades are comp suits and should be wearable at a public pool. Depends on how confident you are I guess.

If found out that a Größe 3 is 30." If I wear a 32" speedo, what would be the equivelent for an addidas (as I know that thier sizes sometimes differ greatly.) Additionally, this aquablade does have a butt seam. The dude states that it is equivelent to M, am I right to assume that it is a 32/34." Thanks for your help.

You are quite right" 34/36 is large inuksizes,36/38 is extra large, this size will suite35/37 so it fits in the right places lol gez.

I find the aquablades to le a little tighter, to ride a little lower, and to have a slightly plasticy feel to them, but I really like them. Here are photos front and rear. I have no problem wearing them in public, and it appears that these swimmers don't either.

Three more from the front.

Now for the view from the rear.

A few more rear views, all in blue. I do like the way the rear seam enhances.

Scott!! Thanks for these awesome Aquablade posts. I'd forgot how cool this suit really is. got to get one. Since it's a comp suit, it's actually pretty conservative, for me anyway. Could easily wear it public.

-j-j

I love the front and rear views. Sweet dreams tonight.

Yeah, the one I'm bidding on is Japanease so I'm hoping it has a mixture of Japanease swimwear awsomeness, aquablade awsomeness which is just conservetive enough for public pools. (However, point 1 and 3 don't go hand in hand haha )

Not too bad. Simply Speedo on ebay sold a bunch of blue speedos which I purchased:

I bought them off a German guy on ebay, not sure if he has more.

I have 2 Aquablades, both in black, I accidentally stole them from my HS. It was on accident, because I had taken them home to try them on for conferences(I though they might have been two different sizes) and I was never asked for them back.
