I'll be honest, not a massive fan of that design.

It's been awhile since Speedo have brought out a new design that I've actually really liked. I think Nike, Adidas, TYR, Arena and Funky Trunks are making way better looking new designs.

Unfortunately, those of us in the U.S. are redirected away from the U.K. Speedo site to the U.S. one.

Hi Scottishspeedo,

I have seen these and the other design with the teeth which I also like.
I contacted speedo about the the maximum size and these only go up to a size 34" waist. Speedo say these designs are aimed at the younger market.
The Skulls brief is Scottishspeedo's picture from his link.
Hope you didn't mind me doing this?

I have a small waist, non existent backside but a gut higher up (according to the physio I have the longest back she's ever seen, seriously she couldn't shut up about the length of my back - I'd be tall if it wasn't for my 29" inseam lol )

That is strange, I have to buy a bike with a bigger frame to be comfortable for a long back, and I too am completely lacking in the backside department!

I take after my old man, he's the same, sadly I've develped a gut like him also (albeit I'm trying to lose it), might get an answer this year as to why my cortisol levels are low...its not Addisons, but could be secondary adrenal insufficiency, whatever it is...need a solution as the random sweating fits are driving me spare...

Well some here might be able to sort them if you cover the cost and the postage. Pair of speeds ain't that heavy.

Sure, and I would appreciate it, but I don't need them, have spent enough on a few suits lately and I've more than enough to swim in

I agree fully with you there! Fortunately we are in a rural spot. We love our holidays in the remote parts of the Highlands and Islands, and day trips to the Angus glens or the Borders.
Some great beaches in East Lothian and Fife too.
