Well my boyfriend (he's a hunk) wore one down the beach for a bet. It was hilarious! Everyone was laughing at him, pointing and staring - and believe me, it wasn't complimentary! He looked ridiculous, and I can't imagine anyone actually looking good in one of these. We have pinned them on the wall above the fireplace as a talking point now. It's the best use you can get out of them. Wear them for a laugh, but for heaven's sake, don't take it seriously!

Firstly, I cannot believe people have taken the time out to write reviews for the mankini, but as I stumbled across the page and happen to own one, I thought I'd add my own thoughts. There is not much else I can add to these fellows' comments, really!

I wore this item to go swimming at a private members gym I go to regularly. After some complaints my membership was suspended.

I donned my Mankini and strode onto the golden sands of South Shields(!!) Not too many Germans about, but it still got me a lot of attention - teenage girls couldn't stop giggling and quite a few shouted out 'Borat!' However, I wasn't bothered - I was sponsored to wear it and raised money for a good cause.
It's now been consigned to the 'Garments worn once, but never again' bin: but that's more a reflection of my innate shyness than any statement on the quality of this garment. Wearing it was a lot of fun, but you've got to have a lot of balls (it helps!) and/or a thick hide to do so, otherwise you could feel REALLY self conscious. I can see groups of lads on holiday all wearing one and having a good laugh with it - there's always safety in numbers!
As I only wore it once I can't really comment on the durability, but it supported me OK (and there's a lot to support - I wish!!), even though I get the feeling it may be prone to 'saggage'. Of course, it looks absolutely ridiculous - but that's the whole point.
Overall, recommended for those with a larger than life sense of humour.
