On the subject on things that are homemade, do we have any loincloth fans here? Has anyone attempted to make a loincloth? I always thought loincloths were sexy ... must be my Tarzan fantasies or something.

I’m a fan. When I was younger I tried making from an old T-shirt. Never owned a leather one. I used to see them online. Haven’t looked in a while.

I made one decades ago from fabric when I was a Boy Scout and we did the now-unacceptable Indian lore thing. I decorated it in the style of the Appalachian woodland native people who once lived in my part of West Virginia. Then last year I made another from leather scraps I picked up in a giveaway pile at a radical faerie gathering. I haven't really worn it ... just waiting for the right occasion.

But related is the fundoshi, which I like and wear around home and garden sometimes. They're comfortable for swimming, too.

I have a fundoshi. I find them very comfortable to relax in.

I'm not usually into leather. But a high-quality, well-made leather loincloth ... that might change my mind!
