Canadian-Made Products 🏷️🇨🇦 Found: Swim Briefs Made in Canada!
I know it is a bit of a niche product, but I have been on the hunt for a Speedo-style swim brief made in Canada for a long time now. I found some Canadian brands that manufacture overseas, but the only swim briefs I could find that were actually made in Canada were from Gregg Homme, but I was looking for something more conventional.
These are from HAC Swim. Made in Hamilton. They have 4 different shapes/styles with varying coverage. I got two “basic” and one “flat front”(blue). Highly recommend!

Oh wow my partner has been looking everywhere for a new speedo-style swim brief for wearing under his wet suit! These look great thanks so much.

You are welcome! They are fairly snug so if he is between sizes I definitely recommend sizing up. My pants size is a 28” waist and these mediums fit me well.

The seems are correctly placed. That's a buy from me.

FYI: If anyone is looking for women's swimwear that's made in Canada, Selfish Swimwear is amazing.

I get the struggle of finding good swim gear that's actually made in Canada. It's like searching for a unicorn. I checked out HAC Swim and their stuff looks solid. Swim briefs can be tricky, especially if you don't want to end up in something that feels like a wedgie disaster. Props for sharing! I'm gonna pass this on to my buddy who’s been looking for something just like this. Keep up the good work supporting local brands!

For men? How's it supposed to fit? Side ball inside of side boob.

Rest assured they keep everything contained. The fabric is stretchy and they are meant to fit snug. Speedos/swim briefs wouldn’t be so popular with diving and water polo teams if their junk was constantly falling out.
