My new Aussiebum, Arigreben and Sporti

Post by BJE » Sat Oct 13, 2018 3:06 pm

I just got my latest Aussiebum order. I’m sort of disappointed. The two red suits are a little higher in the front than I’d like but otherwise they are okay. The first is a Swish and the second an Elite. The blue suit a Classic 1.5 does not fit well. There is no elastic in the leg openings and they gap. I think perhaps I’ll take it in at the seam that runs across the bottom the crotch. That should tighten up the leg openings so that my balls don’t fall out of the suit. It would make it lower rise in the front too.

The next is an Arigreben that I ordered on Amazon. I love it but the back is pretty skimpy meaning I probably won’t wear it in public. I might try a larger size though. The front half is fantastic.

Finally the last is a new Sporti Euro. Still my favorite overall swim brief.

BJE, I noticed the same with the compact rear on the Arigs... I like the front fit.
Your AB navy looks like a great cut in the back but on the looser side.
Your fav, Sporti Euro even shows some of your crack!
You can tell your keeping up on your core exercises!

Here’s a closer up of the Arigreben.

I think all of the red ones are showing some crack.

The Sporti Euro is new and I haven’t worn it yet. They tend to stretch out a bit with use and also fade which is why I got new ones.

I exercise a lot and I’m working on getting back into better shape but I’d say I’m not too bad for 54.

Here is the problem with the blue suit.

I understand. That's an effect I tend to like. It might be designed on purpose like that.

Bje, my experience with those Aussiebums is the same. I have the swish in red, 2 in blue, and 1 in grey. They are my wife's favorites of my briefs. The elite was a very similar cut to the swish, but a little higher. I have had bad luck with the classics, 3 of them. The cut is horrible. I have never worn them, only bought them while on sale, so have not returned them.

Can't go wrong with the sporti euros!

Never heard of arigreben, and with a strange brand name placed front and center, I bet some people will accidently stare at your crotch. Front looks good, but a bit cheeky in the rear.

What made you decide to get all the red? They look good with a nice tan.

I have others with the wonder jock design which I like because the way it holds your balls they can’t pop out through the leg opening.

I think aB has some of those effects or tricks on purpose. Can you lower the waist of these classics a bit?

I like red.

I’m not sure it’s the name across the front that would make people stare. 😀

If I lowered the waistband my whole package would fall out through the leg hole.

I’ll add that low cut suits like the Sporti Euro are why I completely shave my pubes. I don’t want tufts of hair poking out over the waistband.

yeah I like those too.. These classics just have a different fit.

Maybe you're gonna laugh at this.. but before my first aB's arrived (WJ loose 1.5) I was not aware of how low they are cut. I tried them on and got confused. I thought: "how can they be too small?" I tried to pull them up higher - was confused. Then thought I was using the WJ wrong. Kept messing a bit more. Then realized I should not pull them up higher. This is how they're supposed to fit. This is actually a good fit. So I took them off. Got my trimmer and trimmed all my pubes. Then tried them on again... And then I got an "aha!" moment.

Haha just try it for me. I would lower the waistband. It's not a leg hole. It's loose.

This is my Aussiebum WJ 1.5 loose. It’s really quite comfortable. Since there is no stretch to it it feels like I’m wearing nothing. However with the wonder jock my balls don’t hang out.

You can see by the tag showing through on the back how sheer they are even when dry. The front however is lined and doesn’t show through. I’ve since then cut out the tag.

Looks good to me. The WJ Loose 1.5 are skimpier on me. Probably as if you'd have that a size smaller.

Did the aha moment get you to keep trimming your pubes? Once I started shaving I’ve never wanted to go back to hairy. In the past ten years or so I’ve only grown pubic hair for a few months now and then. As soon as it gets to about a half inch I think yuck and shave it again.

Oh yeah I've trimmed my pubes before. Just needed to do it immediately when I noticed how low these aB's fit me. I'm ordering classics (without wj) next week btw. The aha-moment felt good.

In several of those pictures the waistbands are only about one inch above the base of my penis so if I didn’t shave it would be a hairy mess.

Yeah it was a small revelation to me. The tight boxer brief swim trunks I wore before went over the pubes. But lower cut feels much better. Guys who don't wear speedos should try it.
