The style of the swimwear is called a jammer, it looks like a pair of bicycle shorts, right?
I looked at Speedo's US website and didn't find anyhing matching your discription though.

no it's loose like a normal swim trunk
it's basically a normal pair of old school swimtrunks
but they're made by speedo and are totally sick
and they're not new
they're old like made back in the day

Speedos are only acceptable when they are skin tight and beige.

I think the original poster was referring to the brand name Speedo, which, in a lot of places has become a generic term for a specific style of suit technically referred to by manufacturers as a brief or racer style suit, whereas a jammer is the style that looks like bike shorts, and a drag suit, it think is the name of the style that the original poster was looking for.
