Might as well warn you there probably won't be any photos in this post so if you are looking for some, there will be some more coming soon--and I suspect they will make most of you do the same. I may only be 1/4 Irish, but I seem to have gotten a full dose of the blarney part.....aka bad sense of humor.
Of the many associations we have with the Fall Season, none is probably more obscure than it also being known as the Introduction of Nylon Season. For somewhere between 25 and 30 years, unsuspecting guys were handed (probably after being handled first) by their coach, their very first nylon tricot garment--stepping into and pulling up into place covering their balls and cockheads with the first silky nylon they ever felt. I suspect a fair amount already knew that girls were wearing silky nylon tricot panties every day, but they also knew that boys were only supposed to wear their white cotton briefs even if they had felt up or tried on some nylon panties (also referred to as silk panties then) earlier. But now, this swim coach was handing out "legitimate" silky nylon tricot for them to wear. The earlier times (50's-60's) saw double layers of nylon that slid over each other with brands like Ocean Champion, Dolphin, McGregror, and Broderick. These suits had an inner liner brief that was smaller than a larger nylon more trunk style suit. There were others like Adolph Kiefer and Gulbenkian whose double layers didn't slide (at least I've never found any that did). These were American made and pre-Speedo from Australia days. They were all made of a silky nylon tricot that still rubs well today if you happen to own any of these vintage suits.
I've had many fantasies about how many of those guys didn't leave those double nylon sliding suits in their lockers after they had to put their white cotton briefs back on after swim practice was over. Instead that wet, chlorine scented suit got stuffed into their jacket pocket and taken home for the weekend. As soon as that suit dried out, those 2 layers of nylon would be sliding over each other again and ready to be worn. Funny thing about those suits is that the longer you wore them without getting them wet again, the silkier that nylon slid. In the earliest days, as you can see in photos from the early 50's, guys had those suits (often called "tank suits") going almost up to their navels. That meant that even the largest hard ons would easily have been accommodated by the 2 layers of sliding nylon over them. It would have been so easy for some horny adolescent to have pillow fucked wearing one or even easier using their hand to slide those 2 layers over their hard cocks and blown into them. For some at the right age, it might have even been their first sperm producing ejaculation right into their nylon suit. Easily washed out and fast to dry, that suit could be easily smuggled back into their swim locker Monday afternoon before practice started without anyone knowing how much fun it had provided over the weekend.
Even in the 50's these suits were slowly being replaced with nylon suits with only a single panel in front. For some strange reason, virtually none of the manufacturers made these suits with the nylon panel facing in such a way that it would slide over the inner panel. So now you have a nylon suit that had to be taken off and laid over your cock in such a way that the front panel now slide against the back of the suit while being stroked. It still worked, but it just wasn't the same as feeling those 2 silky layers sliding under your corduroy pants. Wearing a nylon panty over your Speedo did work really well, but the risk of getting caught was often too great to risk. Using a couple of nylon panties over your nylon suit (or better yet, your swim buds suit) allowed you to jerk off feeling that nylon slide and protect the inner speedo from your sperm and tipping off your buddy that his suit might be being used for evil purposes. I discovered early that it was easier to keep a couple of silky nylon panties handy for this purpose when wanting to feel another guys suit sliding on my cock, but not to let him wonder about all those crusty white stains building up. Sometimes, though, I would put just a dot or so of my cum inside the panel of his suit right where his cock head would be. The next time I'd see him wearing his suit, it would be such a turn on to know his cock was touching my sperm and he had no idea. I would also know how good and silky his suit felt. Sometimes if his suit was really an extra good silky one, it would just have to stay in my possession for good. I might buy him another suit to substitute but if none was available, I would have to "rescue" his suit if he didn't seem to know how silky it was. Eventually tens of thousands of these suits would eventually be destroyed by the chlorine or maybe just from too much jerking off into?
Those whole era began to end in the mid 70's when the evil lycra was mixed into the silky nylon making it stretchy but not silky anymore. Ironically substituting silky for stretchy had a benefit for the manufacturers--they only lasted 1/4 (or less) as long as a 100% nylon suit did in the chlorine. Of course their marketing effort won out and the faster times reported in the olympics made them the winner and 100% nylon the loser and relegated to practice suits and eventually just the"drag" suits.
The rise of the lycra suit just happened to come at a time when the cotton lobby was attacking nylon as being, "hot," "sweaty" and even "unhealthy" suggesting that lining nylon panties with cotton would even prevent yeast infections and all sorts of other nasty things being encouraged by nylon. The fact that nylon had risen to its very peak in the mid 70's when every major men's underwear brand had their own full line of nylon tricot underwear for men from full sized briefs to dual purpose swim/underwear briefs (like wearing a Speedo for underwear wasn't legal or something?) in t-shirts, tanks, and those incredible nylon shirts (have bought 3 in the past month on eBay that I can wear today and get compliments on every time). Anyway, nylon got shoved into the Disco trash bag at the end of the 70's decade. Nylon shorts lasted along with an Antron Nylon version of Speedos until the mid to late 80's when finally, it was The End of the Nylon Era as we knew it.
Ok, this is where the rant part really starts.......
We now have an entire generation of men and boys who have been raised without being able to snag a pair of their sister's or mom's nylon panties out of the wash, their swim team Speedos out of a locker, or any department store with 100% nylon anything for men selling in it. They have not known the joy of sliding nylon tricot up and down their shafts--or sometimes even better, on another guy's shaft and enjoying that pre-ejaculation shudder before their creamy load makes that sliding tricot sticky and full. On the more realistic side, it also makes all of us in our late 40's--but more likely early 50's to mid 70's. Yup, if you weren't hitting puberty by the late 70's, you have definitely missed the nylon boat altogether. There are guys out there who don't even know what nylon tricot is or think that lycra is nylon or, well, its' too depressing to even think about what they don't know! It's pretty obvious they are clueless when you see a hot guy wearing a pair of silky looking (and plenty of those baggy basketball shorts are 2 layers of polyester that do slide together pretty close like nylon) shorts, but proudly showing their baggy cotton shorts sticking out above them. It's almost as if to say, "Don't worry, my cock head is NOT touching those 2 silky layers because it's covered with plaid cotton boxer shorts. Sorry, lycra/spandex CK bb's are not even close to silky nylon tricot for anyone clueless reading this and thinking their briefs "feel silky."
The only GLIMMER of hope I have seen out there is the hope that someone like Under Armour (the former football/soccer compression gear manufacturer who has branched out big time to now even have their own underwear department in both Sports Authority and Macy's) with re-introduce and "re-brand" (already sick of that BRAND term) nylon for this new, clueless, nylon-less generation.
Using phrases like "wicks away moisture" makes a good comeback over the former stigma of "hot and sweaty" for nylon. Of course it wicks away moisture--duh, it's called EVAPORATION! Nylon gets wet. Nylon dries quickly. Cotton gets wet. Cotton never dries. You get chaffed. If some company like Under Armour that is already in every locker room in the country (guaranteed) and now in most under 40 underwear drawers as well, were to introduce a nylon tricot line of underwear with a double sliding panel in front and called it some sort of sports sounding name, put their UA logo on it, you could have an entire "Lost Nylon Generation" wearing it within 6 months. It's not like guys today would even associate nylon with women anymore since women ran away from it decades ago. Have you seen what UA gets for a pair of their shorts? $30!! It's so cool to show their logo on your waistband, why not have below the waistband be a return to wearing nylon? They could even start off slow with a good, silky polyester and then move intoeven more silky nylon. I've shot many a load into silky polyester and I'm not sure my cock even knew the difference! The guy I also got to shoot into it sure didn't notice. They could do this while "naively" not happen to notice that these 2 layers of silky nylon were being used for all sorts of evil ejaculation purposes. Their first lycra compression shorts had this feature and, though more difficult to slide than nylon, it was very easy to slide their double layer over a hard on or rub it against another guy wearing his and shoot a load into them. Imagine what silky nylon could do?
Anyone out there ready to re-introduce nylon tricot for this new generation? Ironically we might just have a nylon garment wearing LDS President in the White House (about the only good thing I could imagine to say about him having only seen one indication of such under his white shirt). If we are about to lose so many other gains made politically, then at least can we return to having nylon tricot more readily available? Wow, that's kind of a stretch in logic there, I admit!
Come on guys, it's our civic duty and pride in our nylon wearing to not let another generation go without knowing about the joys of waking up on nylon sheets wearing silky nylon pajamas and then having to decide which type of nylon underwear to slip into or which nylon shirt or pants to put on over them? Even more so not having to throw any of these silky nylon garments into the wash without having pumped at least one load--and preferably with someone else, 2 loads before they turn up in our closets and drawers again.
Ok, rant and rave is now over and pictures will soon be posted. Thanks if you made it this far!
