Is it ok to wear a speedo for lap swimming at the gym or local pool?

Nothing over the top, just a plain black one like this. I’m in decent shape and I’ve heard swim briefs are better for lap swimming.

I think it's fine yes. I mean, it's not like you're going and wearing a man thong at the pool. lol Male swimmers wear those because they're less likely to fall off in the water (we're looking at you swimming trunks). Some people might look at you weirdly and others won't care. But happy swimming! 🥽

@Beckybooboo Are these similar to what Wally would jog in? 🤣

[Beckybooboo]

😂😂 No, his weren’t quite that little.

Comfortable is the key & if you are comfortable wearing a speedo for lap swimming at the gym or local pool I say go for it & don’t be surprised if you get a few looks or numbers as well.

Yeah it's perfectly fine. I doubt you'd get any bad reactions. There's a few men that wear speedos at the YMCA pool here, and no one batts an eye.

Absolutely, wearing a speedo for lap swimming at the gym or local pool is perfectly fine, especially if it's a plain black one! Speedos are designed for this very purpose, helping reduce drag to allow for smoother and faster swimming. Since you're in good shape and have heard about the benefits of swim briefs for lap swimming, you're right on track. Plus, it's quite common for swimmers to wear them for efficiency and comfort. Just ensure the pool or gym doesn't have specific dress codes that say otherwise. Happy swimming! 🏊‍♂️🖤

Yup agree. Swimmer here in high school and college. Nothing beats a speedo for laps

[Nikki1989]

Men have been wearing speedos for many decades now.
