More popularly known in the states as ’speedos,’ most people have this perception that not everyone should consider swim briefs. Especially here in America, men prefer to wear baggy swimming trunks since they seem to be more conservative. What usually is overlooked is the fact that swim briefs are better designed for actually swimming.
Like the typical brief, swim briefs make sure that things are secure when you hit the water. By design, they won’t slip off that easily either. Actually, since the swim brief is also known as a racing brief, its traditional design is especially made for water sports. So, there is less drag in the water and a faster drying time as well since they don’t hold as much water.
What about flattering the body? Now, this is what a lot of people seem to be concerned about. It’s also something that turns people off about swim briefs. Well, fortunately, swim briefs do come in different styles. Here at Espada, for example, there are three different cuts to choose from. And they also come with different color designs that make them stylish, too.
What flatters most people is the design and cut of Espada’s low-rise racer. It’s the best style to wear when you’re aiming for getting as much sun exposure as you can for a tan. Espada’s Brazilian swim brief, on the other hand, gives a little more coverage. The versions with the color blocks on either side create a slimming look. For those who like the function of the swim brief, but want something even more coverage, we have the square cut which gives you that comfort of being covered up in all the right places while still being sexy.
If you’re still worried about showing too much skin at the beach, stop worrying. European-style swimwear is stylish and sleek and will make heads turn with a cool and sophisticated look.
