Being an avid swimmer, I've tried many different types of trunks, and these are, by far, my favorite. They're inexpensive, very comfortable, sized-appropriately (ie. 34 is right for a 34-inch waist), durable, and attractive. Yes, there is a seam in the front and the back, but you should be able to gather that from looking at the picture, and considering the fact that it is lined in the front (and on some of the lighter colors, in the back as well), this is a non-issue comfort-wise; the seam is actually there to better provide the contour necessary for the masculine figure. In response to a previous review, I have never experienced a problem with this suit being too narrow to be morally decent, and I've been wearing solar styles suits for a couple of years now, in various sizes.

Skimpy and speedy, slinky and sexy... the Speedo Solar 1" suit is exactly as advertised and reviewed (no, I don't work for Speedo.) Looks so hot out of the water, low and snug on your hips, that both men and women will compliment you, as well as hit on you. Feels way cool in the water, almost like you're skinny-dipping. Mine feels so good that I'm stoked to swim as hard and fast as I can.
You should protect against the mortal enemies of Lycra - chlorine and other chemicals, salt, sun, heat, and abrasion. Most importantly, always soak and rinse your Speedo thoroughly in cold water right after each swim. Then, let it air-dry completely in the shade until it regains its shape. It's best to sit on towels - not on pool decks, rocks, or sandy beaches. Also, don't wash or dry Lycra suits in any kind of machine. And just go butt nekkid in hot tubs. (Isn't that what everybody wants to do anyway?)
If you buy two suits and alternate their use, they should last up to a year. Since my measurements were between sizes on the Speedo charts, I chose the smaller one and it stretched to fit perfectly in all the right places.
So...be confident and go for this bold look and feel. You won't regret it, and you'll probably get hooked, like I am, on doing "bikini style." Carpe diem, my bro!
Fabulous swimsuit - good value, excellent fit - highly recommend May 31, 2008

This swimsuit is cut just right. My size is 32 - which is just right for this style. It probably won't look good on men with a larger abdomen. Legs are higher cut than most briefs. It's great for both sunning and swimming. Quality appears excellent although I've had it only a month.

Okay, I guess you're not supposed to tan anymore, but I also smoke cigarettes.
Nice front pouch and high cut but not unreasonable side coverage- hey, you're wearing speedos anyway, get the sun involved and the tan lines minimized.
Well lined, so light colors are no problem, if you want to kick it up a notch, go to N2N.
Stop this gay thing with speedos, guys used to like to have a tan that didn't look like you sat under a box all day, you know you do it at the tanning place, get it out in the real sun.
Okay, this led to a radical review, but consider all opinions when reading the reviews, and I won't drone on and on like this was a camera or radio or something........

I had waited to wear this as I wasn't sure if it'd work for me, but I can say that it fits well, is very comfortable, and also very stylish. If you are wanting a suit that is stylish and will show your physique then this is the suit for you.
