I've been wearing these for a few weeks now and they are just fine. Not superior to anything I've used in the past, but not inferior either. Just fine. I'll keep wearng them for a year, maybe two, before I replace them.
I read these posts before I ordered, so I did not order larger than my actual waist size (as I normally do for swim briefs). Instead I ordered my actual size -wrong. Should have ordered a size smaller! Too lazy to send it back and wait for the new one-so I'm "drag"ing the one I got around the pool. Otherwize a great suit: fully lined and durable and fast drying.
This suit is not at all as pictured. The legs are cut high on the outside. In any other suit, I comfortably wear a size 30, but I could barely fit into this suit.
This suit runs true to size in the waist but is snug around the thighs. There is a reason for this. Guys will understand. You do not need to wear a swimsuit under this one. It is a little baggy but that is because it is a training suit, not a fashion trunk swimsuit.
I really like it, it is just a little tight on my legs
must be my body type - small. This was OK in th elegs but the suit itself was baggy and would have caused some drag so I sent it back.
