I knew I should have looked around for that stuff while I was out there...:-(

    Solar Swimwear has tan-through suits.
    Their number is (813)971-0090.  I think it's in Florida.

    I've never bought any, I just happened to come accross their
    brochure yesterday.

    Just called.  They're wholesale only.  They gave me some numbers for
    catalog dealers who carry their line:
    
    Overton Watersports	1-800-334-6541
    
    International Male  1-800-854-2795
    
    Performance, Inc.   1-800-727-2453

    
    I looked through the Overton's catalog last night.  They've got 
    three or four.

    Gee I just found mems swimsuits in Fredricks of Hollywood. But there
    are none for women...
    

Well I've seen them in a couple of places:  In a store in Montreal, about 4 
years ago and in a Diving Shop in Harwich, MA a few weeks ago.

For those of you who haven't seen them, they are made of a semi-transparent, 
almost net-like stretch material.  They are printed with different patterns to 
make them appear less transparent.  They are very lightweight.  The material 
is similar to spandex but with a much more open weave.  The finish is not 
glossy, but dull.

They are also quite expensive (I think the men's suit was around $40US.)  To 
me that's a awful lot for a little strip of fabric.  Plus, how long will one 
of these suits last?  Some suits can be destroyed by sitting on a rough 
surface.

    Hi Ron,
    
    Sorry for the delay in replying.  I just came back from vvacation
    yesterday.
    
    Yes, they've got one or two men's suits.  I can bring in the catalog
    if you like...let me know.
    
    Sue

    Sue,
     I do hope you had a great vacation.... Yes I would like to look at 
    the catalog. let me know when you can bring it in....

    I've ordered a couple of suits (one men's one women's) from Overton's 
    but they've been backordered.  Overton's is currently expecting shipment 
    at the end of this month, although I won't hold my breath.  I'll let you 
    know what I think of them when they finally arrive.

    Just out of curiosity, did you order the green print bikini?  I'm
    asking because it's also being sold in the latest Frederick's of
    Hollywood catalog that I got last night in the mail.
    
    ..only Frederick's is selling it for $59 (not the $55 that Overton's
    sells it for)!!

    Just in case someone is still reading these notes, I have another
    source for men's swimwear.  It is that time of year again when we all
    start to think of the warming sun, and I was re-reading some of the old
    notes, so here it is;
    	It's called Lynn's Lines.  They are located in Belmar, NJ 07719 at
    P.O. Box 1016. You may want to call(201-974-1741), as I believe they were 
    in the process of moving.  
    	You can order shorts, briefs, bikinis, thongs or 'slings',
    depending on the exposure you can get away with.  I ordered a pair of
    the Brazilian bikinis and I love them($19).  They are made of a
    shimmery, unlined Spandex that when wet becomes somwhat transparant. 
    So if you're really looking to hide yourself, you may want to order
    something from Sears instead.
    	Anyway, it's another source.  If you have trouble locating them,
    send me a note, and I'll try to help.

    For those of you looking for Lynn's Lines, I was just told they moved
    to Flordia. I'll find thier new address and phone # so I can put it in
    notes next week.

    Lynn's Lines, the small manufacturer of mens's swim wear has moved to
    St.Petersburg Beach, Fla.   P.O. Box 66126,  zip 33736.  I was not able
    to get their 'phone number, so you'll have to write.  I have their
    brochure if you'd like me to send you a copy, send me mail with your
    address.		Good luck, 		Gary

One of the Boston Globe editions this week (I think yesterday's, but
possibly today's or Wednesday's) has an article on sheer swimwear, 
including tan-thru.  It mostly discussed women's swimwear (and I suspect
high-priced stuff, at that).
