What side width do you prefer?

What side width do you all prefer? For me I think 2" is about ideal. I have some as small as 1" but that tends to look a little skimpy in public. Three inches is okay but I'd rather they were lower cut than that. I like the top of the waistband to sit about one inch above the base of my penis. I wouldn't buy anything over three inches.

2 is about right. Would be happy with smaller as long as they sit low. Small sides sitting high is not a good look imo

2 inch is perfect. Like u I prefer it sitting low

I got a 3” speedo too and that’s nice because it also sits low

I prefer speedo solars, even though they are no longer a true inch, closer to 2, probably. 3 inch look like underwear on my frame.

1-2” and low sitting for normal lap swimming. For sunbathing when a suit is required or just lounging by the pool, a string bikini.

My absolute favorites of all time were Tyr 1” bikinis. They were legitimately one inch and made from really soft nylon/Lycra.

Nowadays I’m a big fan of Tyr 2” suits (which Tyr has ALSO stopped making) because I think they’re skimpy enough to be exciting but I can still wear them at the pool and not feel like I’m being too risqué. More frequently, though, I wear a 2.5” suit (Arenas) for lap swimming.

Anything 3 inches or greater and I might as well wear dork shorts, lol.

I have a couple of TYR 2” suits including one like you are wearing that I really like.

I'm with the 2" side brigade. Have a red Arena pair, worn low, but respectable enough for mixed company.

1 - 2,5" for swimming laps or so.

2” is ideal, although since wearing the Sporti Euro, I kinda like a smaller suit now. Not sure what the side width of the Euro is.

I think it depends on your build, if your'e slim or skinny, 1" looks good, if you're more built or wider framed, 3+" looks good.

1” or smaller

1 inch max for me.
Anything wider makes the suit too big and gives too much coverage.

Like everybody else, 2" or 5 cm for me too. Any bigger than that then I'll look like a clown.

Add me to the 2'' side club. However, I have some models that are bigger than that.

2.5 or less for me. Over 3 I might as well where square cuts.
