Went to the pool, in NoRudos

Went to the pool, in NoRudos

The summer is slowing down, and here in the Midwest the pools are starting to close for the season. With that being said, this last weekend we got to spend a lovely Sunday afternoon at a community pool in the area. My wife, her cousin, her cousin's son, and I lounged around, chatted, swam, and enjoyed some refreshing shaved ice!
I decided to give my NEW cabana set a try in the "Briefs of Paradise" print. Let me tell you, it was so freaking cute! I got so many compliments and it was the perfect thing to throw on to wear to and from the pool. Under the shorts of the cabana set I had my "Briefs of Paradise" swim briefs on, of course! 
The pool we went to was a public pool that tends to have a large amount of families and children and I was just not sure if I would chicken out and feel uncomfortable wearing the swim briefs, so having the cabana set (which includes shorts that can be used as swim trunks) was a great way to give me time to decide my comfort level. If it didn't seem like it would be a briefs friendly environment I still had a super fun option. 
We found our chairs, put a stake for our claim, I looked around, and pulled off the top and then said "to hell with it" and took the shorts off, revealing the matching swim brief. The briefs felt comfortable, the design was popping, and I felt completely confident and ready to lie in the sun. 
Being in KS it is not common to see swim briefs in locations such as this, however, I did not receive one negative glance, not one comment was overheard about my swimwear, no one seemed to really care! In fact, I saw two other guys wearing "speed-oh" adjacent square cut swimwear, as well as a few shorts that were trim, tailored and shorter, hitting on the upper thighs. While I may have been the only one in a brief style suit, I was comforted to see there were at least a few other individuals there wearing something besides the more common board short style swimwear most guys in this area wear.
We took several laps around the lazy river and I walked all over the pool deck in just my "Briefs of Paradise" swim briefs. When it was time to go home, I put my cabana set on and remember thinking that I could live in that kind of set year round, lol. 
The only thing is... I forgot to take pics, so here are a couple of pics in the items from when they arrived from my manufacturer and I did the first try on. Sometimes being in just the moment is the perfect way to relax, while wearing your NoRudos, of course!!

Stay Kind!

I love that you’re helping change what’s considered the “norm” in swimwear. On top of that who doesn’t love a matching outfit. Swimsuits have some of the coolest designs so I’m here for it. #NoRudos
