Lands’ End Surprise
My wife is looking at Lands’ End for a new swimsuit for this summer and I decided to see if they have any shorter trunks than I have now. I know I shouldn’t be, but still not comfortable enough to always wear a swim brief. Well, to my surprise I came across a swim brief for sale that they call “Men’s Active Swim Brief.” It’s pretty much a normal swim brief that they market more for lap swimming, but it does have UPF 50 protection, which they say “for when the training takes you outdoors.” I was surprised, since I see Lands’ End as a conservative clothing company and you know how swim briefs are personified in most parts of the United States.
It’s not a bad looking swim brief and it should be well made coming from Lands’ End. It’s only available in one color called Dark Asphalt, which is a gray, with black, white, and a neon yellowish green accents. It comes in the sizes S, M, L, and XL and made of a 78% polyester and 22% spandex blend. Check it out here. Personally I’d give them a try and if I decide to make the purchase I’ll be sure to write a review.
Ways to Support The Bottom Drawer by Shopping
The title of this caught my eye for the simple reason that Land’s End is the most southern part of the U.K and I thought you must have made a surprise visit some time ago. Had no idea it was also the name of a clothing manufacturer. Don’t think I would give that particular swim suit a second look.
Nope, didn’t make it across the pond. Just not something I thought they would order. Wasn’t until somewhat recently they started offering less conservative swimwear for women. Normally I think of one pieces. tankini, swim skirts for women over a bikini. Now they offer two piece bikinis. A lot still on the conservative side. The offering of the swim brief only lasted that year. Would you give any swim brief or swim bikini a second look? :oD I got one to give a try when it was on sale for basically half off. It is more coverage than I like, but maybe an option for family wear or maybe it will get listed on ebay. For now it remains in the swimwear drawer.
