Guys Summer Swimwear Guide

With temperatures rising, you should make sure you have this year’s bathing suit situation under control. If you’re still wearing the bathing suit you bought four summers ago or if you’re wearing a bathing suit that just doesn’t fit you well anymore, this is the time to find the perfect bathing suit for your summer. 

It can be easy to feel self-conscious when you are wearing your bathing suit, but by shopping for a bathing suit that compliments your body shape and size, you may be able to find a new sense of confidence in your bathing suit.

  • If you’re thin – Look for some skinny low-rise trunks. These can help your thighs look bigger and the horizontal cut will also lift up your butt.  If tight just isn’t your scene, you can also look for some loose short shorts. 
  • If you’re stocky – Look for straight-fit shorts that will hit you at least an inch above your knee. Look for patterns that are solid and dark or even have3 vertical stripes to help elongate your body.
  • If you’re extremely tall – We’re talkin’ over 6’2” you will want to start looking for some board shorts. There are a variety of prints and colors that you can look for, but just make sure that the length does not go below your knee.
  • If you’re average – Look for some tailored shorts you want to make sure that the cut is narrower and the leg is short.
  • If you’re a greek god – Go for the athletic briefs, if you’ve got it flaunt it!

This summer, with the right bathing suit, you can be sure that you feel confident and proud of your body each time that you strip down to your trunks.

, , , , ,

This year’s NCAA tournament is determined by more than just the skills of the players on the court. Due to popular demand, this year, special consideration is being given to the clothes that fans are wearing to watch the game.

Wichita State LogoFlorida Gulf Coast’s victory over Georgetown was completely decided by a man named James Mickleson who had the presence of mind to put on his Florida Gulf Coast overalls precisely 47 minutes before the team landed in Georgetown and didn’t take them off until a quarter of the way through the second half. That combination ensured the Eagles victory.

In preparation for the Final Four, we have done our homework and found the exact combination of fan apparel needed to overcome Louisville in their game on Saturday. If you want to ensure a victory for your Shockers, this Saturday, you will keep strict heed of the following guidelines.

Black Glow-in-the Dark T-Shirt

The purchase of a Black glow-in-the dark t-shirt will shock Cleanthony Early into a three point frenzy. Every shot from beyond the arc will sink the ball deep into the net. Swish every time. When you turn off the lights and close the blinds to watch the game, Early will find his way to the free-throw line every 2 minutes of game play. This shirt must be put on over your other Wichita shirt during the singing of the National Anthem.

Miami did well in its regular season. A 24-6 record got them a number 2 seed in the tournament, making them a favorite to get this far. Larkin and Kadji have led this team to nothing but wins in the tournament thus far and can be expected to do so again in the future. They play #3 seed Marquette next for their entrance into the Elite Eight.

FloridaImage

Miami’s in-state competition the University of Florida (#3 seed) rose through the ranks to the Sweet 16. They have fought their way through a few tough loses throughout the season to land a good position in their bracket. The tournament has treated them well so far with a 79-47 blowout of North Western State in the first round, followed up by a comfortable 78-64 win against Minnesota. The question is what can fans expect when they face the underdog FGCU, who has been handily beating their games with a 10 point margin. Friday will tell.

Kansas

Longtime basketball favorite Kansas fought their way to the sweet 16. With only 5 loses on the season, it’s no wonder they were awarded a high seed (#1). They have made quick work of their opponents to this point and hope to do the same against Michigan (#4) on Friday.

With McLemore and Withey at the helm with Young helping get the boards, they have a fighting chance to progress to the Elite 8.

Wichita State

Last up is the men of Wichita State (#9 seed). Who predicted their victory against the West’s favorite to win Gonzaga?  Even Kelly Olynyk’s great 26 point game couldn’t save them from the consistent power of Wichita’s rallying team. That said, Wichita has a tough game ahead of them against La Salle (#13) that defeated #4 Kansas State in the opening round of the tournament. In a branch of the tournament where upsets rule, it will be a tough battle for #9 to come out victor over #13. If anyone could do it though, it would be the Shockers.
