Don't Overlook Dolfin - Most Comfortable Suit I've Worn
By Pacific Beach Swimmer from San Diego, CA on 2/12/2012
Size: Feels true to size
I've had a Dolfin panel suit before and was happy with this one as soon as I wore it.  Dolfin suits have a classic, full athletic cut that works well for the average guy as well as a world class swimmer.  It fits beautifully and feels great. Lycra may not last as long as other fabrics such as nylon, but the comfort is worth the tradeoff. My other Dolfin lasted for over 5 years.  I really like the contrasting panels and piping on the sides of the front of the suit.  I usually only wear racers at the pool, but plan to wear this one to the beach also.

Great suit for laps
By Gary C. from Norfolk, VA on 2/1/2012
Size: Feels true to size
I use the suit for lap swimming three-times per week.  It fits great and feels like a second skin.  I just started using the suit, so I can't comment on length of service expected.

Fast Racer
By poi5 from MN on 6/1/2011
Size: Feels true to size
This purchase was the second purchase for me of this suit.  Loved this suit.  The only problem is that mom washed the first suit with some kind of soap and the material disinegrated and she had to purchase a second one.  The look of the suit is a racing, competition one - a look that is highly desired by swimming racers.  Other sports such as soccer and the Indy 500 get serious with their designs and looks and it would be cool if they could do that male swimming briefs. This specific suit appeals to the eye of someone who wants to compete seriously and not just frolick in the water.

dolfin panel racer
By Mike T. from Mobile, AL on 5/16/2011
Size: Feels too big
Overall the suit feels good . I have been losing weight lately and I think I should have ordered a size smaller. My mistake not the suit's. All my dolfin suits are made very well and I like them better than the speedo.

Great fit
By Steve from Atlanta on 4/25/2011
Size: Feels true to size
I bought this Dolfin suit more as a recreational suit than a lap suit (and increased the waist by 2").  I've always found Dolfin suits to be rather hard to find, but wore them in HS & College, as they seem to be fitted 'forward'.

Fits me great, as I need less in the seat and more under the panel.  I just wish they would bring back the classic 'Dolfin stripe' so popular in the late 70's & early 80's.

Excellent choice
By net shopper from Los Angeles, California on 11/9/2010
Size: Feels true to size
Excellent fit,  beautiful detailing.  Dolfin swim suits are my favorite as they fit perfectly, with jno binding and stylish good looks.  The fit is so good I own 4 pairs, different styles, but Dolfin.

my favorite swim brief
By andy m. from san luis obispo, ca on 7/22/2009
Size: Feels true to size
i swim quite regularly and go through suits about every two months; i've been ordering these for years for the fit and comfort, but when they lose their lycra, they become loose and rather revealing--adhering like a thin second skin in areas and sagging in others.

tip:  throw them out when the lycra starts flaking off.  luckily, they're not that expensive.
