Hey guys good to join the fun. I'm in my 30's but I'm a rookie when it comes to this. So far I've worn shorts and tight boxer briefs from no particular brand for swimming and the beach. But that's changing now.

I ordered the aussieBum WJ Loose 1.5 Dawn this weekend as my first serious briefs. Anticipating the package arriving I went online to see if there are like-minded friends. That's how I ended up here. I'm originally dutch and travel around. Cheers!

My first order:

Nice to meet you. Aussiebums have been my first speedos.

You can bet that the white will go very sheer if it’s not lined. The unlined white on my Aussiebums goes practically clear when wet.

One of my favorites is the Sporti Euro available at swimoutlet.com. They are low cut and fit me very well and are very inexpensive but they tend to fade over time. Unlike the Aussiebum WJ 1.5 loose which basically feels like I’m not wearing anything and offers no control over things flopping around down there, the Sporti Euro gives firm support. It depends on whether you prefer hanging loose or being held firmly. Below is the Aussiebum loose compared to the Sporti.

Oh yeah that's cool. The boxer briefs I used so far are tight and offer control. To get the feeling like I’m not wearing anything and it offering no control over things flopping around... that's why I ordered the AB WJ Loose 1.5.. I think I might need to get em in darker color too

This is how I feel I’m dressed when wearing it.

Welcome. I have that same Aussiebum, love it! Be warned, it’s pretty much completely transparent when wet.

I probably should get the ice blue too.

I'm already looking for the right beaches to visit. But it takes time to plan, etc. I'm not looking to date or fuck or whatever. Just looking for buds.. for friendship. Can't be that difficult I thought

Welcome devildog! I have a WJ. I like it better than the AB I have without it. I found that you do have to put it on fairly carefully. :roll:
