There is a great string of pictures in the speedo photo section of Italian men and others wearing these great suits.
the suits...most are either black or white, they sit low, probably no more than 1.5 or 2 inch sides, no seam or pouch in front.
I would like to buy some...where can I get them on line

I'm a fan of Speedo's Solar and Kiniki's Andre. Specialy the last is very skimpy and Italian.
I've also tried M8Mate's Fresh, which were expensive, but had an awfull fit.

I went on a search for the "Italian Slippini" after seeing those pics. When I showed a friend what I wanted he went to my swim suit closet and pulled out half a dozen suits I already had. He pointed out that the those suits have three things in common. Obviously -- Black. Low rise 1" side suits and contoured front. They are not so tight that their packages are packed in (contour front or under package seam) When I looked - he is right.
So, I put on a nylon Aussiebum 1inch and wore it in the pool. Seeing it on and in the mirror I saw it would fit right in in Italy. I also found the YMLA suits fit the same, as do a Prada I have. I also have Pistol Pete in Yellow - but in Black it would be the look. No longer have it, but I think the UnderGear Greek Bikini is much the same cut.
As it turns out, it isn't a brand of suit we like, its a basic black, low ride, well fitting 1" suit.
