Re: Different Makes
That first red Arena is great!
Re: Different Makes
I like Arena and own the last pic, the second red one. I have a four or five Asian market Arenas and one Japan market Arena. The Japan suit is small and tight and fits the best. I have several U.S. Speedo brand suits. I also have a lot of miscellaneous stuff that I buy on sale.

Re: Different Makes
As I have posted before I have a pair of Zoggs which I really like for pool or beach wear. Of course a pair of Adidas 3 stripe in navy, and a mixture of Arena and aussiebum. Have had Desmiit, Scepter, Turbo, and various cheap far east briefs in the past. Long time since I actually owned a pair of Speedos, I think they were still nylon it was that long ago!

Hi Speedoaddict.
Well, with 3 pairs, if you were up to sell a pair, i'd be up to buy one from you
What size are they ? How much would u want for if you did sell it ??
I'm 36/38 ish,but cant fit a 34 depending on the make..

Re: Different Makes
I wouldn't say it's a collection, but more a mass of flogged out ABs that have been destroyed in the pool. I go through a lot of them and just never really throw them out. I must be hoarding them!

Hoarder! (I keep the worn ones too... )...:::sam:::... wrote: ↑Tue Sep 05, 2017 7:46 amI wouldn't say it's a collection, but more a mass of flogged out ABs that have been destroyed in the pool. I go through a lot of them and just never really throw them out. I must be hoarding them!
I forgot to mention I have several pairs of ABs. While lots of guys don't like the WJ, it works better for me than the plain loose. Also have a Caussie which fits really well. That's the Australian collection.... oh and the Marcuse. (I think they're from Oz.)

Re: Different Makes
Thanks for the comments gents.
The fusion dive suits are one of my favorites.
Hi Mike,
I have a size 34" and 2 x 36". These are not for sale. Really sorry.
I wish Adidas gave you more colour choices tho Snowbrief. But they are really comfy.

Re: Different Makes
My absolute favorite suits right now are my 2" Tyr suits. Then I've got some Arenas I use for general lap swimming (and I've posted about all these suits in various other forums here).

Re: Different Makes
Mostly I stick to Speedo brand, as size 34 gives me a good fit and am hesitant on mail ordering different brands and cuts. I like full coverage in the back, where it stays in place while swimming.
Recent ordered a few tyr suits of the same size and they fit great. One is 2" miro like patterned racer modeled by 52dno98 above. Really like it. The polyester blends they use have a great feel too.
I have an arena brief but find it cut a bit narrow in the rear and seems to want to ride up and expose my tan lines a bit, which I don't really like. The construction seems good though, but I have yet to swim in it. Recently received an arena squarecut manga print, which is great! I don't usually go square as I often find them ill fitting, but this one I love.
Has anyone here heard of a brand called splish? They have a ton of daft prints, and I kind of expected them to be of a sub par 'novelty' construction, but I took a chance on ordering a few of their more conservative suits and found them to be really well made. The sizing and fit is directly comparable to Speedo, and the material is very nice(I've the lycra poly blend but you can oft for a pbt) most of the prints are absolutely ridiculous and often of a 'gay interest' nature, which is great if that's for you, but there are a few more 'normal' looking ones, plus you can design your own! Some of you should really check it out. It uses an odd editor focused on a clip art approach, but with a little creativity you can create all sorts of abstract prints.
I'm new here and haven't worked out posting photos, but if there is an interest I can figure some out later. Cheers.
