    Some how the Mirror universe contributed to the design of those suits.

    I will accept nothing less than a 1930s style full body bathing suit.

    Star Trek pants were generally just black with no insignia. Some men wear a t-shirt to the beach, but I'm sure Star Trek themed t-shirts already exist.

    Star Trek fans are pretty much the last people I'd want to see in bathing suits.

    How does swimming in a mini-skirt work?

    I'd wear a green one with the sideways arrowhead. I bet @Ryan Thomas Riddle would too.

    You know me so well.

    And I'm going to World Pride in Madrid this year so a green speedo with sideways arrowhead would be perfect.

    Everybody deserves the right to cool down. Come on, we're better than body shaming.

    You know the Next Generation ones actually look pretty awesome. Maybe I can get my wife to wear one of them in the summer.

    Also, kudos to them for featuring different body types. Not what we are used to from wearable Star Trek merchandise. Marketing finally seems to catch up with changing sensibilities. :techman:

    Go ahead, caller. I'm listening...
    You clearly don't know the fans that I do, then.
    And Vin Diesel. And Jolene Blalock (yes, she was a fan before her involvement with the show). And Reese Witherspoon. Rihanna. Christian Slater. Mila Kunis. Olivia Wilde. Rosario Dawson. I could go on without even getting into my own attractive friends who love Trek....
