Nike Swim Nylon Core Solids Brief Reviews

By David from Frederick, MD on 4/7/2013

Swim in Y pool 3-4 X per week for an hour each time.

True to size, possibly runs a little large.
I wear 38 pants but buy size 36 for this product
and that works well for me.

Wish it would last longer but no suit does.

Size: Feels true to size

This suit provides a good fit for my build, and has been my primary suit for the past decade. Wears well, although does stretch out after 4 to 6 months of steady use. In the current model the front panel tends to get air pockets when wet. Choice of colours has been become much more limited in recent years, and would like to see greater selection.

Size: Feels too small

If you go off of the Nike sizing chart, it says to order a 30 if you have a 33-34 waist.  I ordered a 30 and in my opinion it is too small.  All my pants are either a 32 or 34 and my swimwear are all 32 with very few 34.  Some reviews have suggested to buy a 30 if you normally wear a 32 in Speedo and I would disagree with that as well.  I would say if you wear a 32 in Speedo, you should get a 32 in this suit.  One thing I noticed is the back of the suit is very full, you may like this but for me I prefer the cut of the Sporti brief or the euro cut.  I will be returning this order because of the sizing issue, not because of any quality issues.  Overall I still prefer the Sporti, Speedo, TYR, Dolfin, and Arena over the Nike brief.  I thought I would give these a try since the reviews were so high, but I really don''t get why the suit is rated so high.  Just my .02

I really like the fit of the suit. It is really comfortable and feels just right. My only complaint is that the little flap where the seams are on the suit constantly rolls under itself, but it doesn't really hinder anything. Really a solid buy.

This suit fits well and is of good quality material, not too thin.

This was my boys'' first choice for their diving suits, that is, springboard diving.  Nice fit, thicker material than others, decent coverage.  Would like this navy suit even better with a yellow stripe on the side for our school colors!  But we were okay with a solid color too.

Great fit, the suit is tight enough that you do not have to tie the draw string.  But, not as tight as a Speedo in the same size.  The cut/fit is much more athletic than the Speedo.

I swim every other day, 1500 to 2000 and this is what I use. It is very simple but comfortable. It doesn''t stretch as much as other materials I have worn in the past.

Size: Feels too small

I have other Nike suits and typically order a size down and they fit perfectly.  For this suit I also ordered a size down, but after getting realized I should have ordered the actual size.  My build is tall and lean and the fit is tight and the leg openings are even tighter which feels to be somewhat  cutting into my legs.   The look of the suit and feel of the fabric are great though.  Since this is a size too small, this will only be for my quick workouts and not for lounging around afterwards.
