How to Buy a Speedo

Speedo is a popular manufacturer of swimsuits that come in all shapes and sizes. However, many people associate Speedos with the briefs type of swimwear worn by men, a style that is very popular in European countries. If you wish to buy a Speedo, then you want to pick out a pair that is flattering. Does this Spark an idea?

Instructions

    • 1

      Look on the official website to see the different style Speedos that are available. You can browse both the U.S. and European lines.

    • 2

      Purchase a Speedo from a discounted online store. Swim Outlet carries Speedos and Speedo-style male swimwear. Pick out the color and size that you prefer.

    • 3

      Go to a swimwear retailer to buy a Speedo. You can look in department stores, like Macy's to see what Speedo-style suits that they have available.

    • 4

      Get a pair of Speedos that have a fully lined front. You are not going to want to put your package on display for everyone to see. Choose a lined suit instead to hide your privates.

    • 5

      Check to see if the seams of the Speedo are reinforced. Reinforced seams will keep the suit in place, this is especially important if you are wearing the swimwear for a water competition.

    • 6

      Try the Speedo on before you purchase it. This gives you a chance to check on your comfort level and to see if it fits well.

Tips & Warnings

  • Darker colors typically are more flattering on a Speedo. Stick with black, blues and dark reds.

  • You should be comfortable with your body if you are going to buy and wear a Speedo. You are showing a lot more skin than when you wear a pair of swim trunks.

    Although Macy's has Speedo online, they DON'T have them in the store (at least the one I went to didn't), so don't assume you can just "LOOK IN DEPARTMENT STORES, LIKE MACY'S" like this article suggests
