You think *that's* mind-boggling? I refer you to Koala Swimwear (very
much NSFW) https://www.koalaswim.com/Male-Display-Suits_c_26.html
Not resposible for eyebleach and/or brain bleach used...
LOL!

It would be *moderately* interesting (no more so) to know what reaction such would get on local beaches, but they're a bit family oriented, so probably not wise to try. On the other hand, there's a beach only three miles away where nothing is permissible. No, let me rephrase that. Wearing nothing is permissible.
ObTrav: Have the PCs encounter those suits on some planet they are
visiting. Locals have no problem with them. Will the PCs? Will the
NPC they happen to be escorting have a problem?
This was kind of a thing in my Into the Unknown adventure, but the trouble with putting it in an RPG it's a bit easy for the characters to simply "join in" in a way that might not be realistic. hence my page of rules at the end for trying to model comfort levels with such things. They worked quite well I seem to recall although one commentator mocked them IIRC!
*Players* on the other hand... well, on encountering Blue Sky the first time I ran the adventure at TravCon one (rather large!) gentleman immediately stripped off his xxxl t-shirt and played the scene for all it was worth.
