Size: Feels true to size

Worn at finals - 1 event Fri, 2 Sat and 1 Sun. The suit is already breaking apart and can not be worned again. I understand these suits dont last but I am disappointed that I will have to buy another for prelim/final meet in March. I should have learned my lesson the last time I bought this suit a year ago. My daughter had to borrow a suit (Speedo) for finals because it was coming apart on her back side. By the way, she did not wear this suit at prelims. Really need to put on website minimum wear before suit breaks apart. At this point I would like to explore a different brand although we are a TYR sponsored team.

Size: Feels too big

My daughter (11 year old) states it is to big in legs, the coach states it is to big,( 2 sizes smaller then her normal suit) I think it fits just right, she dropped 10 seconds off her 200 IM, 8 seconds off every every event this weekend,  She received her "A" times.  She needed to get comfotable with the "Compression" suit but I think it was worth the price.

Size: Feels too big

First suit was per the sizing chart. Talking with customer service we got more info that helped get closer down one size. Could have maybe gone smaller yet.

Size: Feels too big

This is my third Try Tracer Lite ( in the same style and size) and the only one that does not fit.  The elastic on the top is different from the other two.  The top of the suit is so big that it baloons out when you're swimming.  It's worse when swimming on your front.  You can image my surprise when I got to a meet with my new suit and it was trapping water. If I hadn't been so pleased with my other previous suits, I wouldn't have been so disappointed or surprised.

Size: Feels too big

I bought this suit for a really big meet, got the size i thought i was, but the suit was way too big. I tried it out and it felt a little loose but there wasn't anything i could do so i just kept it on, but when i dove in it filled with water in the chest. I ended up using someone else's suit that was the same suit just a size smaller but still filled with water. I still took of a lot of time off my seed, and the suit is good quality, repels water, and dries quickly, just oddly sized. I would definitely buy the suit again, just in a smaller size.

I will share this review TYR, Swimoutlet and the consumers: The product works as advertised. Firstly, Swimoutlet should work with TYR on a correct and meaningful sizing chart. Use that chart they have at the moment for this product and that's your biggest mistake. My daughter is 11 years old, 5'1 and chest size is 32. The correct suit size for her on this type of Tracer is 22 or 24. It takes her a minimum of 10-15 minutes to put this on. That's how it is meant to be because this is a comp suit - not your basic training and leisure outfit. It has to be tight because it is meant to compress your body during comp events. This is also why water does not get trapped inside that causes drag. If it does then you need a smaller size. As for the consumers, do your research online about the product and the importance of compression. My daughter swims competitively and wears this on small meets. To make it last, rinse in cold water after usage and dry pat with a towel. Don't wring or squeeze, then hang to drip and dry. It will last more than 20 events if cared for properly. For big meets, she uses the the B or C series. We like this product as it serves its purpose, and the Tracer Light is very durable.
