After decades of banishment from mainstream wardrobes, one of fashion’s most divisive garments — the men’s swimming brief — is making a tentative return across the globe
. Some would argue the garment has never gone away. Beaches and pools in Europe has long been a safe space for fans of the Speedo style, ditto Brazil. Racing briefs are also de rigeur for swimmers, water polo players and divers, and widely embraced by the gay community.
His swimming briefs were, well, brief – available in 17.5cm , 12.5cm and 7.5cm widths — the greater the width, the more ‘modest’ the garment said Australian newspaper the Sydney Morning Herald. Initially, the paper reports, men tended to buy the larger width, but the second year saw buyers opt for a medium width, with the skimpier 7.5cm style dominating three years after their inception.
