Would you buy a $90 speedo?

What is the most you would or have bought a speedo for?

I saw a post today on the SpeedoForum.org talking about Aronik speedos which look fantastic but they are $90 for a plain black speedo!!!  That is way too much for me.  Their models are super hot though!!!  More pics over on the members blog.

If anyone from Aronik reads this blog, I’d be more than happy to demo a pair of these and find out if they are worth that $90.

As I promised earlier in the week, here are the square cut swimwear that I won from my speedo drawer.

• Red AussieBum, I like the lycra on these but they kinda feel like a bit of a wedgie in the bum.  No drawstring, but the super wide waistband means they won’t come down in the surf.
• Black Nike shorts, not lycra but a nice light material.  Unfortunately, these bunch up in the crotch for me so I don’t wear them much at all.  I’d love to wear them as underwear but that bunching….
• Blue Intymen square cuts from my good mates at Mensuas.com – I actually asked the guys for a square cut and this is what they recommended.  I actually like these the most, the lycra is thick and good quality, unfortunately, the sizing is super small and I can’t really wear these, at least not in public, I’m showing off a huge plumbers crack.  I’m going to try and get them 2 sizes bigger and I think they will be perfect.
• Blue AussieBum’s are my most recent addition, I think they are called Old School.  They are a really nice fit, I went a larger size because AussieBum just seems to get smaller and smaller (maybe I’m getting fatter and fatter).  These are lycra, feel great, don’t bunch up too much.

Of course, I much prefer speedos and don’t think I’d really wear any of these at the pool.  But, my theory is that maybe I can wear these to the beach with my mates and it will be more acceptable than speedos?  I dunno?

If you are interested in any of these speedos – leave a comment, I might be interested in putting them up on eBay if anyone is interested.

I’ve landed in America – I’m writing this post sitting at DIA waiting for my CME shuttle up to Kip’s place.

It is nice and warm, I’ve never been to America during summer so it should be fun.

Last month I was contacted by the online store Mensuas and offered some speedos in exchange for mentioning them here on this blog.  That was a nice offer but I figured that maybe I should give the speedos away – so that is what I did.  Last month it was a pair of WildmanT speedos and they were won by a guy from Seattle.  This is an email I received from him:

Hi Dave,
When I came home from work today I opened my mailbox and there was my Wildman T swimsuit in the mail! 
I couldn’t believe it arrived so quickly. Of course I immediately had to strip of all my clothes and try it on. 
It fits great and the fabric feels so good and sexy against my bare skin! It’s supposed to be warm and sunny this weekend here in Seattle so I plan to wear it on Saturday sunbathing in the park...
Thank you so much for your generosity.

I will take that as a pretty awesome response, I was pretty impressed how quickly they arrived!!!

So this month Mensuas has offered 2 pairs of Cover Male speedos to give away (Google Mensuas and search them by brand to check it out).

I’ll be choosing 2 members of SwimmerBoyz.com to receive these on the 15th.  I’m sure you guys understand that I love my members and of course I’m going to offer this give away to members first.  Kinda of an added bones on top of the 100 or so hours of speedo movies that are available.  Click here to join for just $4.95 and have a chance of a free pair of speedos.

According to the interweb…. my speedo package has arrived.

I’m in the middle of a movie edit so I’m going to duck down to Kip’s PO Box and grab them.

Do you guys ‘christen’ your new speedos?  I do and I’ll tell you all about it tomorrow.

Those of you who are new to reading this blog will have heard of Kip but might not know who he is.  He is my server administrator and handles all the super technical stuff to do with running this blog, The Speedo Forum and most importantly SwimmerBoyz.com.  Kip is awesome at his job, is super smart and loves speedos.

Kip and I have been working together for years now and before I moved back here to Sydney I spent some time with Kip in Breckenridge where he lives.  There was a LOT of hottub speedo fun that winter let me tell you.

Kip is planning on coming out here in a weeks time which I can’t wait for!!!

It is winter here but the ocean isn’t that cold and Kip has never been to Australia.  We’ll get some snowboarding down at Perisher as well while he is here.  Hopefully Kip will spend a little less than 3 months here.  Kip’s been reading about my exploits with Alex and loving it and is looking forward to joining in, Alex is looking forward to Kip joining in as well.

Anyway I just wanted to post quickly that Kip told me about a pool party that he went to at a rooftop private pool in Denver last weekend.  I don’t think I’ve ever been to a party like that.  Kip wore a pair of AussieBums and although it was a gay party he was in the minority with a lot of guys wearing square cuts (which is a million times better than board shorts but not quite).

Kip did get some action later in the evening which sounded darn hot.  He said the speedos were popular…. all the more reason for guys to wear them I say.

All I need now is a house with a private pool and I’ll host a ‘Speedo Only Pool Party’.
