Date Posted:02/09/2013 09:45:08Copy HTML I've been wearing thongs/string bikinis for many years but have noticed that my thongs are becoming less comfortable as it scraping the skin at the back. I have recently shifted to wearing jock straps/string bikinis instead. Anyone had a similar experience as well?

Re:Moving from thongs to jockstraps Date Posted:02/09/2013 11:24:02Copy HTML try different brands and styles of thongs and even different materials. I have come across many thongs that seemed glittery and it was like sandpaper right on my tailbone! And they arent too small which will make them "cut" into you. when trying out a thong I just bought or someone else's thong, I do the squat down and bend over test. If it rubs or cuts into me when I squat down or bend down at the waist...forget it.
Jock straps for me...is like your sock only covering the front half of your foot while your show is on. Drives me nuts! |

Re:Moving from thongs to jockstraps Date Posted:09/24/2017 09:15:05Copy HTML Well, I pretty much spent the entire summer sunning in a jockstrap. I can honestly say I wasn't bothered once. A majority of the time was spent in a park along the Charles River in Cambridge MA. I ventured to a beach about four times. I must say it's a lot better in a park. You don't have to deal with biting flies or sand blowing all over you. I don't know what I'm going to do next summer, but for now I will admire my jockstrap tanline.

Re:Moving from thongs to jockstraps Date Posted:05/28/2019 06:27:11Copy HTML Bringing this topic back up. I wore a jock at a beach and swimming pool recently. Has anyone else tried this? I really enjoy mixing up styles from time to time, and seeing what sort of reactions I get. |

Re:Moving from thongs to jockstraps Date Posted:05/28/2019 06:49:41Copy HTML Several years ago several companies offered jockstraps specifically designed as swimwear with tie up strings included. I got one and wore it a few times, pools but not beach, but as a product promotion they just seemed to fizzle out. They weren't unusually scanty compared to thongs either. That's the marketplace for you. |

Re:Moving from thongs to jockstraps Date Posted:05/28/2019 07:18:28Copy HTML There are many jockstraps available currently, including several designed for swimwear as well as underwear made from swim friendly material. I prefer the non-swimsuit jocks made from quick drying material. Even though they show less than most of my swimsuits, jocks get an interesting reaction from a lot of people. I like to wear them under short unlined split side shorts. Then go for a run, remove the shorts at the beach as though its an impromptu swimsuit. Or at a hotel, go from the fitness center to the pool. Remove the shorts and rinse off under the shower before swimming. |

Re:Moving from thongs to jockstraps Date Posted:06/04/2019 09:39:39Copy HTML There was for a long time a jockstrap billed as a swimsuit by ZOD. It was white with red trim and had a big red flower printed on it. I wasn't interested until Underwearoffer.com offered it at half the old price. I ordered one thru PayPal. I saw the funds transfer to Underwearoffer.com but no confirmation and no merchandise ever came in the mail. I complained thru PayPal but none of the options to click on ever worked and the seller never responded to my emails. The offer is still up, but I believe there are plenty of other swimsuit jocks to be found at real sellers. I prefer nude to jocks anyway. |

Re:Moving from thongs to jockstraps Date Posted:06/30/2019 12:59:04Copy HTML Anyone ever hear of those jockstrap tosses at Pride events? I seen one of those guys at a beach during the recent Pride event. The city does not say a word about guys just wearing jock straps being tossed around or the other people wearing ball gags and other stuff ;)

Re:Moving from thongs to jockstraps Date Posted:08/20/2019 12:10:14Copy HTML I find the opposite - I have a small number of jockstraps, but don't wear them often as I find thongs more comfortable.

Re:Moving from thongs to jockstraps Date Posted:12/22/2023 02:49:40Copy HTML I just now ran across a new product listing on amazon by Gary Majdell Sport (who has long featured conventional swim bikinis and thongs) for a "jockstrap bikini swimsuit." It is a true, fully bare butt, jockstrap in a half dozen different liquid colors. I was curious enough to order one.

Re:Moving from thongs to jockstraps Date Posted:12/28/2023 12:27:49Copy HTML My Gary Majdell jockstrap bikini swimsuit arrived early, and I haven't worn it swimming yet. I am very pleased with what I got. I ordinarily wear a size 34 brief or thong and so ordered size M in metallic blue. It doesn't have a tie string, and doesn't need one. Its close fit will keep it in place during vigorous swimming. Above all, it looks like swimwear as opposed to an underwear jockstrap pressed into service as a swimsuit. Coverage is comparable to a skimpy thong but with side straps instead of a butt string. I'll be getting it in more colors.

Re:Moving from thongs to jockstraps Date Posted:08/11/2024 12:49:45Copy HTML I've been wearing my Gary Majdell jockstrap swimsuit at a privately owned but well populated beach. I've gotten a few double takes but no comments about it. I have noted that the shiny metallic color characteristic of many Majdell suits does not hold up all that long with constant use. Usually the seat wears out first, but this item has no seat. Meanwhile however. Walmart Internet has begun selling jockstraps labeled "Men's Low Rise Swimming Briefs" by their seller YDKZYMD. I bought two of them. As durable swimwear these are better than Majdell's (sold by Amazon) but not quite as skimpy. For comfort, I much prefer double rear strap jockstraps over single strap, and often too tight, thongs. I definitely recommend the Walmart jock as swimwear. Walmart sells this same item via other sellers labeled as "underwear" without mentioning swimming, and sometimes at a lower price. Various other sellers have occasionally offered jockstraps, often with swimsuit tie-up strings, evidently with mixed results. I hope they keep trying, and succeed. Lots of underwear "fashion jockstraps" would be great at the beach if only they didn't sport their brand name so prominently.
