Amazing suit!  Holds up better than any other suit.   Fit and wears great.   Can't beat SwimOutlet for price!

Snug at first, as with all poly suits, but my last one is still going string a year later without sagging or visible signs of wear!

My 14 year old swims with her club daily and loves this suit.  This is the second one she has bought.  With the first suit, after a full year wearing it, the elastic over the shoulders became crispy and started leaving black marks on her back but the fabric never faded!  I Highly recommend this suit.

I swim about 8 times a week competitvely and this suit has been wonderful for practice.  It feels true to size and is stretchy, which is nice.  My meet suit size is about a 26, so I ordered a 28 for this suit and I'm glad I did.  When it first arrived, it was pretty tight.  It's stretched out a little since then.  The suit's back straps are a nice touch, since they free your arms and shoulders a bit more than a normal suit would.  The color has also held out so far, no fading.  This is a good buy.

Size: Feels too small

The fabric and build of the suit are great but I feel it is not true to size -- straps dig into my shoulders.  I buy one piece suits that are one size larger to accommodate my long torso but this TYR suit isn't fitting as well as the polyester/PBT Tyr Durafast Maxback I bought previously at SwimOutlet.  I would have bought another Durafast Maxback but it doesn't seem to be available anymore thru SwimOutlet, too bad.  Bring back the polyester/PBT Durafast Maxback and I'll be back for more!

I always swim in TYR, I don't usually get yellow/gold colored suits, but this one was on clearance. For some reason the piping areas (straps and around the legs) are tighter than normal, which threw me off.  After a few workouts, the piping (the non-choroban parts) will start to stretch out anyway, but I just thought it was out of the ordinary for TYR in that style suit.  Still a great suit -- for workout or competition, especially if it's marked down!

I bought a racing swimsuit a few weeks ago and I love it.  I have been needing a new suit and I really wanted something with polyester in it so that it would last longer.  I searched all of the swimwear sites, but I wasn't satisfied with the products or the prices.  I found this site and I knew that it was going to be awesome.  I am very pleased with the product and for how fast the delivery was.  I definitely would recommend this site to anyone who may be in need of swim wear.

I am a mother of two with a larger chest (nearly 34DD)  I have searched high and low for a suit that would support me enough when I swim and not look like an old grandma suit :)   This one did the trick for me!

This suit is great. I am very long waisted and it fits perfect. Very moderate cut front and back. The color is more pinkish purple that deep purple. Love it anyway!

This swimsuit is amazing!! I wear it everyday and can't tell any wear or tear on it. It fits really nicely and has a fun design :) Definitely worth the money!
