I suggested to my wife that if I lose enough weight and or inches around my waist in 2058, I would like to get a tanga or 2 for our trip to Florida in 2026.
She was not thrilled with the idea but was accepting.

    [quote]Got one or two in mind?[/quote] Probably a two-step process. Start with something with moderate coverage like this. https://www.kiniki.com/collections/mens-tan-through-swim-tangas/products/aruba-tan-through-swim-tanga?variant=39683054043209A Once my wife and I get used to it, go for the absolute minimum like this. https://skinzwear.com/product_detail.php?prodID=8290&name=Mens-Micro-String-Bikini-Swimsuit-in-Wet-Look-Black

    I think i will try the Kiniki tangas next. I have 8 Kiniki micro briefs already but most of them have lost their elasticity. Dont think they are made to last for doing laps 2-3 times a week. Plus they are faded.

    Actually tangas are less revealing than Microsoft in some ways. While the sides are just a string, they are cut higher so the top of the crack and bush aren't visible.
    Do you think that you would ever try "the smallest swimsuit men can wear if thongs aren't allowed "?

    In the past i have worn a G string, probably the most revealing of all, but may not be allowed on all beaches

    [quote]Your right it is a nice swimsuit, if you have to wear one[/quote] I feel that I am too heavy for a tanga now, I will set some weight or waistline goal for getting the more conservative tanga. Once I reach it and get one, I will set at new goal for getting "the smallest swimsuit men can wear in places that thongs are not permitted."

Once I get comfortable with that, I will try a tanga with the minimal legal cover and perhaps eventually a g string.

    Adjustable tanga arrived recently. Maximum coverage is less than expected. I remembered when I saw it that Skinz uses the same amount of coverage for all size tangas, so if you are heavier like me, more skin is exposed. Was going to post pictures but found out that a member must now be certified to post any pictures and I am not comfortable uploading my driver's license.

    Planning on going to Gunnison on Tuesday and trying to get up enough courage to wear it for the drive down and walk from the parking lot to the beach!

    not sure if Tanga is a brand as when I googled it thongs, string bikinis and skimpy swimwear popped up, up till I gained to much weight I always wore skimpy swim wear - speedo's , thongs, black nylon swimwear when wet everything is exposed and I guess something close to a Tanga. it's multi color blue with the front and rear that slide on the waist band, it can be a regular speedo or a thong with minimum crotch coverage where it's best to be a smoothie.

Will try to build up my courage for next time.

Since I can't post pictures, here is a link to the suit, The model looks a lot better than do in it anyway. https://skinzwear.com/products/mens-4-way-adjustable-micro-bikini-tanga-solids?_pos=1&_sid=6f01cadad&_ss=r&variant=50188804194615
