Guys Should Double Up on Body Sunscreen with Speedos Back in Vogue

Posted on June 22, 2010, 5:45 PM

Speedos are spicing up the Milan Men's fashion week runways and will soon be in stores for the common man everywhere. Is this a blessing or a curse in disguise?

Guys Should Double Up on Body Sunscreen with Speedos Back in Vogue

When Michael Phelps dons on a Speedo, I don't think any of us mature women can complain (or are even able to string three coherent words together). My philosophy is if you got it, flaunt it baby. But are we ready to hit the beach with all men everywhere wearing such dinky suits? Vogue's June issue had a men's section asserting that Speedos were indeed now in style for the everyday man, but seeing it on the runway in Milan's Men's Fashion Week today confirmed all rumors: the Speedo is back.

I admit, I'm a bit partial towards the swimmer body, but some of these are as low-cut and baring as a Victoria Secrets' Very Sexy bikini. And while the male models on the runway sizzle it up with their perfectly sculpted six-packs, do we really want the Speedo to be generously distributed to all men everywhere? I mean, I get it if you are lucky enough to live in one of these cities with the hottest men, but what if you don't?

One thing's for sure, if this swimsuit catches on, we women will not be the most scantily clad bodies on the beach this summer which gives rise to the question, should men be better groomed than women? If you're not ready to package a Speedo as a gift to your hubby or boyfriend yet, check out these best grooming and skin care products for men for any belated Father's Day gifts.

And whether you're a man or a woman on the beach this summer, more skin means more sunscreen (see the best and worst sunscreens here). With skin cancer due to melanoma on the rise, sunscreen is vital to all bodies baring it all, so make sure to cover up with one of these 11 best sunscreens for your face. You can offer some to the guy in the Speedo too. It could be a great opener.
