I loved them, and still have all of my originals, and many more over the years. They are still turning heads to this day. My favorites were the half blue, half white.

OMG! We used to wear these everyday. If you couldn't het the Dolfin brand, Dove's were always second best. I wasn't allowed to wear them to school so snuck them under my clothes.

Our big bosses will be visiting from the home office next week - supposed to dress 'professionally' - Hmmm, maybe I'll sport my pink & white candystriped Dolphins to impress!! RIGHT ON (tee hee). Can't say though, I EVER would've dreamt to wear GLOW TIGHTS(tan color??!) to accesorize with, as modeled in one of the pics...SCAREEEEE!!

so frickin' hilarious. i haven't thought about these in years. i had the half red/half white, i had solids, stripes, you name it. and you always had to have just a tiny hint of your butt showing. i wore these throughout jr high and high school 80-86. lol.

Yes I had several pairs of these shorts when I was a kid, I think I had them in just about every color but my favorite were my purple ones!

I can't believe I was allowed to wear these shorts to school as a kid! I had a pair of all white ones and use to love to wear them with my white Vans slip ons.

Oh I use to were these all the time too! was the rage! I too preferred the built in panty type. I was a lifeguard way back then and we had to were red shorts over the swimsuit, then after work I took off the swimsuit and put back on the shorts and wore them all day. thay were too comfortable! I just didn't have Dolfin thou. I also bought NIKE nylon shorts with the matching tops, PUMA, and Cobblestone witch i still buy and wear today while I work out and jog. these ones are so comfortable I wear them even to bed. I get them from teamsportswear under womens track appearal

i remember those shorts too. i also was a lifeguard and practicly lived in them in and out of work. they were so comfortable i agree, i even wore them as underwear under my jeans. my first boyfriend loved them and he use to call them "fast access shorts". Meaning i could wear them out in public, yet when we go make out he could just pull them to the side and go to town without me getting undressed! LOL

OH YEA! I loved it when women wore these shorts! I loved sitting in the park and watched the lady joggers run by. the spit side type nylon short would blow up in the wind and you can catch the rim of the under panty on the bottom of the butt cheeks! I wish they bring those back like the skateboard!

I remember having such a huge fetish for girls wearing these shorts, then one day my sister bought some and it was driving me nuts. I mean the sorts that is. I was having an issue with my sister wearing them but they did look so hot on her and I felt so ashamed. she only had one other friend who wore them and I felt better about that!

Does anyone know where you can still purchase these four panel shorts or candystripes? Please email me mary.ballard.bernstein@gmail.com. Many brands are coming back from this period so I am hopeful.

I had a couple of pairs of dolfins when I used to run for my cross-country team back in high school. One pair was solid black and the other pair was half blue and red. IThey were great shorts.
