Tan-thru?

I'm interested in these tan-thru bathers a few people here have mentioned.

What are they? Speedos? Boardies?

And where can I get a pair?

Also, will they give me an all-body tan without me having to take them off? How well do they work?

Thanks,
Dunk.

They are made of a shear loosely woven material that would probably be see-thru when wet, but have a pattern to avoid the see-thru factor. If my memory is correct, they have a SPF factor of about 5. You can see some here:

I have this one, but it fits me a little better than this guy. I still have a tanline though even when using this one exclusively.
