questions about Marcuse™ Arrest Me series

Hi Speedo Hotties,

Can some of you please help with these questions?
I'm thinking of buying the Khaki colour of the Marcuse™ Arrest Me series. I really like the super low cut and the simplicity of the design. Questions:
(a) Does anyone else think this style look sexy?
(b) Will the khaki colour go well with tanned skin?
(c) I'm not sure about the cords hanging out. I know this has been discussed in another thread. Do the dangling cords look sexy next to the VPL?
Appreciate all replies and opinions. Thank you.

I think the cut is good, the cords are personal choice, but sorry, I am not a fan of that colour.

I like the cords, looks sporty. It's definitely a sexy suit. I like the color though I'm not sure it will compliment a tanned tone.

I love the cut and the color. I have been tempted to get them myself.

I have passed on buying this suit myself. I have another Marcuse suit that fits me similarly to this one, but feel too exposed in it both front and back to wear it out.

Yep like the cut and the colour. Not a fan of the cord. I'm still convincing myself to go and get one.

Below I posted on the other Marcuse thread. As for the color, not the biggest fan of it but it would work well on tanned skin. I'm just never really a fan of khaki/olive colored clothing.

I love the arrest me cut. I bought several last year when they had a good sale. I believe I bought 2 in the arrest me cut. I think I posted somewhere before about the fit of Marcuse. The pouch is more of the compression fit that you get with Speedo brand suits. But the low, skimpy cut is super hot!

I bought true to size and they fit well. The only reason I would consider going up a size is for more space in the pouch. As I'm not a lap swimmer, most of my suits I buy for comfort and fit over performance. And if you're rather endowed, go up a size. The material is thicker, similar to Speedo Solars, so they don't give a ton. All in all, I love the brand and would buy Marcuse again. Even at full price, their quality is justifiable of their price.

Someone asked about shipping too. I don't recall exactly how long it took, but it was fast. Maybe 8-10 days?? I don't remember it taking very long but do remember being surprised at how quickly they arrived. That was during a sale too, which usually slows down processing and shipping.

Thank you for all your opinions.

Just bought this style and colour while it's 10% off. My first pair of Marcuse. If I like it , I will order more during the next sale. Aussies are very good at making sexy swim briefs.

Khaki colour feels very military :-)

No one has addressed the question on the dangling cords next to the VPL. The cords definitely draw the eye to the VPL, the sexy look comes from the VPL, so yes definitely the dangling cords/ VPL produce a sexy appearance.

I posted in the other Marcuse thread but have this suit in blue. I do wish the strings were internal but they are fine. I agree with Chicagoswim 100% on quality and durability
