Parks for Recreation Brand
I have a couple bikinis and a few thongs from the brand Parks for Recreation. Many years ago I bought them from Metroman USA who is no longer in business. I found them to be really well made and great everyday underwear. Their bikini that was made of 90% cotton and 10% lycra was probably my favorite from them. It features a 3/4 style back with about 1″ sides and had just the right amount of coverage. Their thongs were pretty decent too, but they were ones you typically knew you were wearing a thong. They were still pretty comfortable thongs. They used the thicker elastic, which seems to always make wearing a thong noticeable when brands use it.
Anyone aware if this brand is still available out there? I’ve found them mentioned a few places. Also at one point I found them in a PDF flyer, but no luck with anyone selling their products online. Let me know if you know anything about the brand or if you owned the brand.
Ways to Support The Bottom Drawer by Shopping
Those look awesome! I would’ve ordered some if they were still available…I do miss the”retro” styles from 15 years ago when I could first buy my own underwear. Haynes string bikinis and bikinis, assorted BVD styles, nice Jockey styles, and I actually still have 4 or 5 thongs I bought off of a rack at Macy’s. None of those options are available now, the “wildest” undies I can find in a store are Life, string bikinis at Walmart and they are poor fitting and seem low quality. I don’t know how anyone who follows this blog feel, but I am shocked how men’s underwear has regressed in my life.
They’re pretty solid bikinis and thongs. Would like to get more. Would be nice to go to a store to pick up some bikinis and thongs. Found some good ones at Kmart years ago when I first got into bikini I really liked. That was before I discovered places online in college to order from. The regression seems to be more the brick and mortar stores. Online the selection is booming. Life string bikinis are about all I find too that are somewhat sexy now a days. They’re okay until you discover some goods ones online. For the price you can’t expect a lot of quality especially if you compare them to a pair that cost $10+.
I still have several that I also bought from Metroman. They’re still some of my favorites.
Too bad we can’t find them anymore. Metroman was the only place I recall seeing them.
I have one pair left from a long time ago. Wish I could say for sure when but maybe 15 years ago. Still so comfy and stretchy. I found this article cuz I am wanting more!
It’s probably been over 15 years, since I got my pairs. Still in decent shape, since they get worn more during cooler weather and not daily wear. I’m feeling we’re probably out of luck finding more!
