Target selling Speedos!

So I was googling for speedos and I came across a link for the Speedo Shorline Brief... to my surprise when I clicked it, it took me to Targets website. Now I haven't been to Target in a long time so I don't know if they sell it in the store or just online but this is huge. I know its probably not that special for guys who come on this forum because we buy most of our swimwear online, but could you imagine that guys actully could have options in the states when they go into a store to buy a swimsuit.
I was think about this the other day... the reason speedos are not that popular is because they are hard to come by and most guys don't go online to buy a swimsuit they just choose what is available on the store racks.

I hope its indication that they are going to sell them, but honestly I have my doubts. When I look at the site, it only has an option for red in size 30 and says "shipping: not available" and "order pickup: not sold in stores."

They're not carrying them any more. I bought one from them last year. Looks like they have some red ones still

Well, it's a start at least. I did notice also that Target is now selling small squarecut trunks. Online only, not in stores, same as this Speedo but I'm thinking they must be testing the market for smaller, briefer swimsuits and hopefully the demand is there and we'll start seeing more and more little bathing suits for men going mainstream in stores like Target. BTW, I just loved reading the comments associated with that red Speedo. We are not alone, guys. More and more men are sick and tired of ugly swim trowsers.

Yes I loved reading the comments for the red speedo on Targets website... more guys want options.
