Guys, I remember buying some really nice Hom swimwear in the 80s, they were multi colours micro bikinis, very small cut but just beautiful made. I’ve searched all over but can’t find anything similar, does anyone know if Hom still make very small bikini swim briefs?

Hom was(and possibly still is)a quality brand back in the day. I have a black swim thong I bought many moons ago for £15, which was expensive for the time. I see they still advertise micro bikinis on their website, but I personally wouldn't call them micro. To me they are sized more like a fairly standard speedo with full coverage. Strange that they have skimpy thong and g-string underwear, but no string bikini swimwear.
Have you tried Ebay? You might find a one off being sold. Sorry I can't be of more help,but good luck in finding what you're looking for.

Thonglover8k, are you familiar with Skinzwear? I have their M73 Stuffit Rio men's microbikini, and I am very pleased with its appearance and quality. Skinzwear has a very wide selection, ranging in "exposure(!)" from to (or, for me, ), with great fit as well as a good selection of colors and patterns. If shipping costs are a problem, they have sales regularly, so that may help. Here's the link to my bikini (mine is tan with a paisley print). You might want to sign up for their e-catalog, too. Good luck! https://skinzwear.com/product_detail.ph ... Neon-Coral

MicroBikiniMan,

Thanks so much for that, they look just about perfect, I’d like the aquamarine colour.
It’s not a a brand I’m familiar with, postage from the states is insanely expensive, so I might wait for the sales.
Thanks again, I’ll definitely get some for next summer.

HOM do still produce swim bikinis but I wouldn't describe them as micro cut. They are slightly more skimpier than the usual 5cm Speedo brief. I have a quite a few of them and they are really nice to wear especially for swimming.

I do have a vintage HOM swim bikini which is probably from the 90's and much more skimpier cut with smaller pouch and narrower sides. It's really great to wear but can be a bit tight so sizing can be tricky. I picked it up on eBay so that is probably your best bet. I have searches set up to alert me to keywords like HOM and vintage.

I have their Nassau flower thong, love it, can barely feel that it isn't cotton, feels great to wear.

I remember the Hom bikinis of the 80s. Fabulously brief with super stretchy fabric and amazing colours but expensive. These days they have a micro style which has narrow sides but a large rear covering,smooth front with a small dart at he crotch.they look like a brief speedo and I guess would be acceptable at a family pool. I have Royal blue and black ones. Nice enough but not so small and sexy as their 80s styles.
