This suit really is a record breaker! The product of the most extensive research and development in swimwear history, the LZR Racer suit offers advanced compression, drag reduction and an optimal fit in the world's lightest hydrophobic woven swim fabric. The world's first fully-bonded bodysuit, the LZR Racer was worn by Michael Phelps for each of his 8 Gold Medal victories in the Beijing Olympic Games. In fact, swimmers wearing the Speedo LZR Racer in Beijing won 94% of the gold medals, 89% of all medals, and set 23 out of the 25 world records that were broken.
