Need Help - swim suit for big guys

I'm looking for a "jammer" type suit but can only find them up to around a size 40. Which for a guy my size basically fits around my thigh. I'm a long distance swimmer and have been using "swim trunks" for years but lets be honest I might as well be wearing a parachute. I'm definately not interested in swim "briefs" - trust me NOBODY's interested in seeing that! I suspect I'm probably looking for someone that makes custom suits, if I can't find that, then I'd be interested in knowing where to find lycra material and have a local tailor try to make one. Thanks for any suggestions.

    You could take your current swim trunks to an alterations place - and have them take out the extra material, so you'd have a pair that was somewhat more streamlined. It shouldn't be that expensive. Maybe lycra biking shorts? Have you tried on the TYR jammers? I've noticed that TYR has a little bit more room in their suits, just a thought.
