Ebay

Post by stringbikinidude »

Found some prevailsport-ish style bikinis (and thongs) on ebay by a company called 'swirlfashion'. I was impressed to find that classic bodybuilder style bikini with high cut sides and large pouch which seems so hard to find (and seems against the grain) I ordered this swim bikini:

https://www.ebay.ca/itm/K377-P-Mens-Str ... 0005.m1851

(Hope that link works!)

They fit awesome however it came without a liner and shows VPL pretty well. I guess you could get a liner put in yourself as they dont seem to make them with liners.

Found another bodybuilder style swim (hunk) bikini:

I'm awaiting the second one in the mail : ) I dont know if these will have a liner and If ill have an issue with VPL but I thought they were too nice of a style to pass up (and they weren't responding to my messages)

I’m really liking the string bikini in the first link, they do remind me a little of the prevail sport style. You don’t find many like that any longer. I wish they had showed the bikini on a person or at least a mannequin.

The bikinis in the second link are made about 4 hours from where I live, that is cool. I looked at some of their other items and some (for my modesty) border on the almost erotic style. But they do look nicely made.

Those are possible alternatives to try and fulfill the prevail sport lost. Second sellers are a bit on the pricey side especially compared to Prevail Sport pricing. Guessing the first ones aren't custom made in the USA like the second. Do you know where they are made? China?

I'm not sure where they are made but it says they're shipped from Pittsburg USA? I'm not so crazy about chinese made products as of late but I'll take what I can get as the 'pickings are few' for high cut bikini style. I thought I remember most briefs from prevailsport being around the 10-12$ mark? Seems comparable to me, but I could be wrong.

The first link looks very similar to underwear I have seen from China. The second link indicates that they are custom made underwear and swimwear.

Yes, the first is comparable to Prevail Sport pricing when on sale. They seem to be running about $15 a pair on average at regular price.

Thought id mention another prevailsport-ish option for underwear. It comes in the form of this:

https://www.deejay.com.au/index.php?_ro ... cut-briefs

They are not cheap and you have to add on shipping from Australia...but I have a pair of these and they look and fit awesome. They're very close to the string brief from prevailsport. The sides on deejay's may even be a bit smaller compared to prevailsports'. Very nice comfortable snug fitting pouch. I recommend this. It's basically a bodybuilder poser but for underwear. It seems like the website hunkwear.com is maybe the same company as deejay as the styles and models are similiar. I didn't find the same exact cotton posers on the hunkwear site though.

Keep on bikini-ing guys
