Swimming

---

well summer is coming and that means its time to go swimming. i wear board shorts with boxers underneath, but i dont know if this is a good thing. are they see through? i never bother to check. so guys, what do yall wear for swimming?

you are very interested in what people wear...I wear whatever...Board shorts and some boxers, maybe....then maybe just some board shorts.

WHy the hell do you guys wear boxers under your swim trunks? I swear it's the stupidest thing I've ever seen.

well i do when it is last second...if I know I am going to now way.

when I wear swim trunks with the nets its severe chaffing time. so board shorts for me.

Do you suggest wearing trunks without netting and without boxers underneath? I'd need to get a tighter pair out of fear of them slipping down since I got mine before I lost weight running.But, most of the time I wear jammers anyways. Tight swimsuit, moderately long leg coverage (a few inches up from the knee). Perfect for that aerodynamic feel, and feels free almost as if wearing nothing at all

ummmmm i never wear boxers under my swimsuit.......but thats maybe because my boxers are longer than my swimsuit since i'm hardcore and wear a speedo. i bet they are somewhat see-through, but people won't look at it enough to acually notice it. soo i guess whatever feels right to you.

i wear swim trunks with an inner net, no boxers

We all wear "speedos" in AustraliaI've seen a few other forums on other sitesthat a lot of our USA cousins think this a bit risque?Is this really true?

Anyone you swim with use jammers? They tend to be more streamlined than speedos since you don't get the draglines at the top of the thighs, plus I prefer the whole long legged thing, especially for triathlon with the transition into biking then running.

ok for some i cant even swim , its something i never learned to do :scream_cat:

boxerbriefs & boardshorts... wear them even when i'm not swimming. wearing somenow. :grin:

dhey got shum hardcore swimmers in austrailia

well i always wear boxers under my board shorts... but i live in australia and noone wore speedos when we went swimming at aschool... though my sports teacher tried to make us lol. Anyways my friend was tellin us dat when he went surfing... he didnt wear anythin under white boardshorts and all these poeple were staring at him but he didnt relise till he gt home dat they were see through

Board shorts with no undies are much more comfortable than trunks with the net.

I am a bit confused.What's the differences between board shorts and trunks?I have a board shorts (or it is trunks? There is net inside. I am not sure) and I wore it to a beach to swim a year or 2 ago. I felt quite insecure as I didn't wear brief or boxer inside the shorts.Is it common to wear the board shorts with no undies? Wouldn't it become see through after swimming or getting wet?

Well...I would think if your board shorts had the net, then they would be trunks.When I started wearing board shorts with no undies, I though it probably was not very common. Then I found out my buddy did the same thing, and now I'm learning it's probably fairly common. As for being see through, if they're dark in color, that wouldn't be a problem. I wouldn't think even white ones would be cause the fabric is typically pretty thick.

Do you suggest wearing trunks without netting and without boxers underneath? Why, yes I do. Wearing boxers under your swimwear is a new phenomenon that has come about over the past years in conjunction with the droopy pants crap. When I was growing up, no one.. I mean NO ONE wore boxers under their shorts. If you guys are so damn concerned about your dick flopping out or something like that, then your shorts/trunks/whatever are not appropriate swimwear.

In reply to: that a lot of our USA cousins think this a bit risque?Is this really true? No its not true.What is true is that 99% of the people who wear them do not have a decent body and its fucking disgusting to see some hog bastard witha sweater growing on his back and a what appears to be a squirell tucked into his speedos walking down teh beach and bending over to have those little bastards ride up his butt and both his ass cheeks hang out with a fuzzy caterpillar being squashed thru the shorts.Risgue ? No, sickening ? yesthere is a huge difference between the two.

What is true is that 99% of the people who wear them do not have a decent bodyVery true. After college I went to Europe for 1/2 a year and wore speedos. I looked fine, but I had a good build back then. Now, I would never even consider wearing them with the chucky body I have now.
