Men were bathing in separate baths naked or in underwear. By 1900, one-piece swimsuits came up with short legs in striped shirt. In 1920s, then went on very tight swimwear for men, so-called triangle swimwear, many of which were considered scandalous (West Chester swim lessons). The first swimwear worn with a belt in 1930s in United States. Mid-1950s, became popular in US is very short, tight-fitting swimwear. Swim Shorts for Men (also called trunks) are originally from the surf culture, and were worn in practice of this sport. Today, shorts or gym shorts are very popular as swimwear for men. In addition, however tight swimming trunks are supported as before.
Swimsuits are mainly used yet for swimming because they have a lower water resistance than loose-fitting shorts. Since 2010, however, they are by FINA banned in competitions and only Jammers allowed to above the knee of textile material. For bathing clothes no outerwear is worn by men often, except perhaps on the ocean beach, but not on grounds of public morality, rather than protection against sunburn.
Competition swimwear, depending on the version for men and women also have long sleeves and legs. Widespread in addition to traditional suits and trousers, one-piece full body swimsuits, which due to its smooth surface reduce the water resistance and therefore increase the speed. There are swimsuits with special surface structure, which will produce a lower water resistance.
The early bathing suits were made of wool or cotton or jersey, which is difficult when wet and dries slowly. The primary task of bathing suits that time was not to be transparent in water. Sometimes even weights had to be sewn so that the skirts were certainly in shape even under water. Therefore, the fabric is now mostly made of nylon.
By an overwhelming part of history of mankind and bathed swimming naked. Also in medieval Europe, men generally been taking a bath with no clothes on, although it is known that in middle of fifteenth century in Baden spa waters and Bath used type of pants, and women.
In seventeenth century, bathing in hot spring began to be widely recommended as a therapeutic treatment. Toir use in spa pools were used linen clothing: shirts for women, pants and type with long sleeves for men. This dress was to only covering the body from the eyes of outsiders, his appearance not received much attention. Also later, when at the end of eighteenth century, gained popularity holiday by the sea and sea-bathing, not used special swimwear.
Swimming pools were divided into a section for men and women (or the same part of beach was used at different times), the bath itself was short-lived and had a goal rather than a recreational health, and also used a retractable bathing in sea cabins where dressing up, then into water. Cab also protected the people taking a bath before that might look from the shore people of opposite sex. All of this made sense of modesty satisfy the then bathed and men simply naked or in linen pants and women's shirts, but made of a material not adhering to body, and sometimes loaded at the bottom.
Professional swimmer both sexes wear close-fitting swimsuits that cover as much skin as well as basically swimming caps (or bald) to reduce their natural friction even further. These are often made of special materials, with even lower friction compared to ordinary swimwear. This was often under criticism because some critics are of opinion that the swimming so degenerate men and materials.
