Wrestlers over age 50

Speedos. There is just something about the feeling of putting on speedos or tight briefs while preparing to wrestle.

what about bikini briefs?

Agreed, speedos or smaller for me.

Speedo anytime.

Nude is preferred but have some very tight black briefs that I use.

Agree……my favorite.

Always nude

When I started recreational wrestling I wore a long on the leg singlet-then a friend offered me trunks -then my boss gave me a thong-MOST PAINFUL-and now I have briefs/singlets and most popular NUDE! (Less laundry for me NUDE it is!

I prefer nude.

Me too
A lot of us end one anyway sooooo

I know it's a Slight tangents but.. your Boss gave you a Thong? Interesting!

I was sleeping with my married boss YES! Doesn’t everybody??

Yeah! He was married with kids but I babysat the kids sometimes (and we were having sex every now and then) he knew if my ‘hobby’

Tried speedos and nude. Nude beats all of the rest.

I agree.

I have shorts I can wrestle in.

Sure does!

Indeed it does!!

I think the main difference is just modesty or comfort level, I have wrestled in singlets, bike/compression shorts, speedos/trunks, briefs and nude, and unless your doing a rip n strip match the only difference is what you and/or your opponent is comfortable with. Some prefer the skin contact of speedos/briefs, and some prefer the modesty of singlets.

I used to be a contributor on a yahoo group and the FAQ's section it said the general rule of thumb is wear as little as you are comfortable with but no less than.

Well said-I agree!

Nude is where i like to end up

If ever travel to ATLANTA -u WILL end up nude if I wrestle u!

Yes indeedy!

Yup me too!

To Me. A singlet looks like a womans swimsuit.

Some guys are probably wearing women's swimsuits in the pictures I see on here. I think that they think it looks like a pro singlet.

I dont have a problem with either singlet is harder to pull off lol Please log in to view gallery photos.

I like clingly boxer briefs.

People often say "Speedo" when they mean any kind of briefs. I find Speedos and Swimwear less comfortable than skimpy underwear and singlets. It depends on how technical you want to get. I am not saying I don't like wrestling in Speedos. I just like singlets a little better.

Definitely prefer pro style singlets over speedos, they are more comfortable and make me look more slender IMHO. Don't like amateur/collegiate style singlets, however. I am also partial to high-waisted trunks and will gladly wear them if my opponent wants to see my breasts and nipples from the opening bell.

So is it the material of the singlet or the cut of it that makes it more comfortable? Not as tight?

Most lycra singlets by major manufacturers. You move better and it kinda becomes a 2nd skin. The material more than the cut. I have wrestled in the Cliff Keen "Kurt Angle" lycra singlet. Even though it is an unusual/unique style, it is also very comfortable.

Is this the one with the high leg?

I have the same singlet. It's very comfortable and looks great

Of the two, I would choose the singlet. It is more comfortable and offers more sensitivity, if you enjoy the body contact aspect.

Body contact is what I like AND dislike laundry so NUDE IT IS (if ok with my opponent)

Especially if it's cut low in front and high on the legs

What do you see as pro and cons of wrestling in speedo versus singlet? I have only wrestled in Speedo which I enjoy, but interested in learning advantages of singlet. Again, just speedo versus singlet no “nude is better” comments are needed.

I like a speedo with the liner removed or singlet that has minimal coverage because they both provide more body contact

I like minimal gear because it adds to the primal feel of a match to me but I'll wrestle in anything.

I agree. Less is more fun when wrestling

Usually a speedo. I have worn a leotard, like some old pro wrestlers. Thong now and then.

Want2lrn. I apologize for the nude is better comments...😉
