How have I missed this thread? Chickenguy, I think it would be easiest just to paint on some stripes wherever you think best.
Stacia picked out some square cut brieffrom Skinzwear.com which I really (I mean REALLY) like to wear, as they're so comfortable. I can hardly tell they're on. I find myself checking. They're not see-through (as in transparent), but they are... translucent, I think is the term? You can tell what's up, it's just not a clear window. I don't care about the show-off factor, because there really isn't one.. but I DO like the comfort!
That’s where I get mine from Skinz and must agree they are very comfortablw indeed. I too have tan-thrus which are as you describe, very sheer and somewhat see thru but not transparent. I think I’m up to 10 pair. They are $40-50 each but well worth it. I wear the same style 43...(there are many and you must decide what fits you best) and order in different colors/patterns to match my wife. She orders various styles of course. But she also orders other brands and we find Skinz matetial patterns that match close enough!
During my trip I didn't saw any guys with 'see through' bathing suits but there was maybe 4-5 women wearing that.
I just bought some shorter trunks yesterday myself. I bought two pair from a brand named ‘addiction’ and a pair of diesel as well. They are short square cut but not tight. They fit more like my right shorts used to. Very comfortable and a pocket in the liner for ‘controuring’ I was told haha. Fit great, not long, fun, and playful. Another option if men don’t want the tighter euro fit. I’ll see if I can upload some pics
Pics I found online. Addicted appeals to the LGBTQ+ population and so they have some fun styles that are really over the top and playful. The files are too large to upload from my phone unfortunately but check them out!
Just got these delivered yesterday in two colours. https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B01N0XF7UF/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Unfortunately they only sent the suit, not the body.
