I use this suit for lap swimming and will wear to the beach. I have a pear-shape figure and this suit is quite flattering. The fabric gives it a snug, secure fit, holding everything in place. Though Speedo's ultraback is my favorite back style, the contourback on this suit is fine and is nice for the beach. The main difficulty for me is the length. I have a longish torso and in that direction the suit feels small. I think the fabric that contributes to a snug fit, also keeps it from stretching in the length like some suits do. I am keeping it because overall I like the fit and appearance very much. I might try a second one in the next size up.This was my first time using SwimOutlet and l liked their website, making it easy for me to hone in on the type of suit I wanted, giving lots of info about back styles and other details. I also appreciate the minimal packaging used in mailing the suit, which I received very quickly.
I use the suit for lap swimming. Although the suit fits right otherwise, the straps, in front, cut into my skin.
This suit felt really snug when I first put it on. But, once I wore it to swim laps I decided that snug was good. Straps stay in place, the bustline stays put (I also ordered a similar speedo when I got this suit and the bustline on the speedo scoops water). I really like this suit. I would definitely order it again.
I have reviewed the Speedo T-back suit also and found this Silhouette style more to my liking. It runs more true to size and the cut of the leg is a little longer. The colors are bright and cheerful. I love the deep scooped back to this suit. It gives me better tan lines than the T-back or other cross type straps. I teach young children swimming lessons, so I am in the pool for several hours at a time during the summer. I am hoping the colors stay bright since it is labelled chlorine resistant.
I like the suit for water aerobic classes and swimming laps. I also enjoy the speedy delivery and your return policy.
I like the look of this suit, but the sizing is a bit strange. It feels very short through the torso, therefore it is not that comfortable to wear.
At first I was skeptical because this style of suit the straps fall down. However, this is NOT a problem with this suit. It fits beautifully and is fashionable to boot. Just love it!
This style felt shorter than another style from same manufacturer same size.
