Kiniki -- The End?

Post by Pennbikini »

Hi all -- I just wanted to let you know that I reached out to Kiniki because the selections were getting less and less on their website...turns out that they are not developing new underwear or restocking legacy cuts, because they're going to go all in on their swimwear. That's a shame for me, since I've worn them a lot for the past 25 years or more. So now that's two big ones for me that have exited -- PrevailSport, and now Kiniki...

Thanks for the update. I last checked them out earlier this year and noticed there were no new styles or additions. I first ordered their tanga underwear back in 2016 and still have and wear them. Like prevail sport I’m sad to see them go.

They were my favourite brand for many years going way back to the 1980's. Still have many of their styles in various drawers around the house including some that are still unopened :o . I remember when you had to phone up to place your orders(no online shopping in those days) :lol: and the lady who took your details was always very pleasant and never made you feel embarrassed about buying skimpy items. Hopefully they will be successful with their swimwear lines which I see are currently being sold with 50% off. Definitely worth checking out some of their tan through thongs and tangas.

This is sad news to hear. I just got introduced to their underwear this year and really enjoy their thongs. They are high quality for a very good price. Guess I'll have to check out their swimwear.

It kind of has already been the end of Kiniki's for me for a few years. They've started dropping styles I liked several years ago and then they started adding more mainstream cuts in their underwear selection. They've even been dropping swimwear I liked that was not tan through. So I haven't bought from them in quite a while, since not enough in their selection to make an order worthwhile for me. Still a bummer they're dropping their underwear line with them being reasonably priced for their quality. Thanks for the update.

Yeah, I'm not sure what I'll do without the Kelly and Newton string bikinis! I've been wearing them 60-70% of the time for many years.
