Anyone ever tried Slugger Swimwear? Curious to hear if anyone knows about the quality and fit. Seems like the same suits come in different cuts, and specifically for guys with larger rears.

Thanks. Apparently the search function doesn't work very well.

Not sure on the pattern yet, maybe the green or the pineapple. Need to decide on the cut first.

While they look good, I don't like how they describe them as not having much stretch. I like a snug fit with stretch not a loose fit.

I imagine it's the same as the Aussiebum suits that having very little stretch so you have to rely on your body to fill them out.

Hey mate - try the Deetees. The Racerbacks and Classics don't have any lycra in them, but once the fit is right they are nice and snug - just not super tight in front.

Most of my swimsuits are aussiebum 2.5 size small which give me a bit of plumber's crack. Your size guide shows the equivalent is a XS. How is the coverage in the back for racerback vs the 2.5 aussiebum? I will probably try both classics and racerback.

Hey mate - we aim to cover just above your bum to avoid that Plumber's Crack look. And by just I mean literally just above!
