Speaking of this topic…

Does anyone have any recommendations for good quality everyday bikini underwear with a good pouch preferably in cotton?

I’m very happy with my modus vivendi mini brief … it’s low rise , thin sides and comes in vibrant colours

probably from the Bristol firm intersparta , now sadly closed down. They used toproduce a very detailed catalogue with beautiful wordy descriptions of their styles and even the weight in grams

1986, K-Mart, they were Hang ten men's cotton bikinis. K-Mart had a good selection way back them Other brands I bought there- Brut 33, Britannia, and of course Hang Ten.

Hang Ten had a nice selection of bikinis and string bikinis.

Hmm, I was a teenager in '78. Visited family in Europe. Got a brown swim bikini at the new department store in town. "Solar" brand, I recall.

Wore it (as a spectator!) at a triathlon event at a lake in California. Definitely got a lot of attention!

A few years later, was visiting a friend in the Bay Area. She invited me to swim at her uncle's place. Had the brown one in my car, no issue.

Almost half a century later, I have a drawer full. No public wear since the 80s, though. Wife not too approving of this "hobby."

My first was the white Stafford bikinis from JCPenney….around 2001!!

It would have been a tube of jockey elance bikinis (all white) from an area department store. I remember being so nervous….this would have been in the fall of 1997 in Indiana.
