Spandex Bodysuits for Men
From LoveToKnow Lingerie
Whether for sport or contouring, spandex bodysuits for men have a strong popularity. Like women’s corsets, they can mold a man’s body, making it look something close to perfect. Also like women’s lingerie, there are a variety of makes and models to consider before purchasing.
Choosing Spandex Bodysuits for Men
When you think of a spandex bodysuit for men, you most likely think of a short diving suit. But compression bodysuits are descended from the relatively obscure men’s corset of the Victorian era, which did wonders for sucking in an expanding midsection. Modern bodysuits are much more comfortable, effective and sexy. What you’re looking for is something that will fit, but also shape and mold. The suit should cause the muscles to contract and thus make you feel more toned. It should eliminate bulges through the chest, abdominals, back, buttocks and thighs and remain comfortable throughout the day.
The other kind of men’s spandex bodysuit is for fantasy and novelty. These range from sexy leotards to silly takes on superhero costumes, excellent for Halloween. All are easily found for sale online.
Buying Spandex Bodysuits for Men
To get a good sense of the varieties of bodysuits available, it’s useful to start on the comparative shopping site Nextag, which lists several dozen bodysuits from different stores. Not all fit the bill, as many are either watersport suits or costumes, but you can at least get an idea of what’s out there.
A more comprehensive search finds such sites as Bodysuit, which features a polo bodysuit made of a poly/rayon/spandex mix. It has three buttons and a collar, and it snaps in the crotch for comfort and ease. It is available in a number of colors: black, white, camel, charcoal, jade, mango, aqua, brown and citron. Be aware that not all colors are available in all sizes.
Bodysuit currently carries only four other men’s bodysuits and these are all nylon/lycra mixes, which, while still well-fitting, don’t have quite the strength or stretch of spandex.
For something fun and sexy, try ABC Underwear, which sells a short sleeve, crew neck bodysuit made by NDS Wear. The suit comes in blue with a beautiful dragon print motif. It snaps between the legs, adding to the tight and seamless look. The fabric is a mix of 90% MicroPloy and 10% spandex. Sizes range from Small to XXXL.
