I use this suit for triathlon training. Great fit, great style, very flattering.

I bought a Black/Gold in size 30 for a competition suit, because my more important meets were beginning to start. The suit itself fits perfectly (yes, tight, but I ordered a size down for that tightness) and the colors are nice but not overwhelming. I have always preferred thick strips, particularly in right competition suits, and while these straps are a little different from what I''m used to, they haven''t put my shoulders asleep yet (which is important for a backstroker).

I just wanted to add, because you can''t really tell in the pictures, but the cloth above the white and on the straps is a mesh-type of material. I honestly don''t think it matters, but I just wanted to give everyone a heads up.

Overall, a good suit, with a good, tight, normal-Speedo fit that looks good!

* For reference to the sizing, I''m 5''8"

It feels a little tight in a secure way with no ride up. My daughter loves it and she said the mesh on the shoulders does not slow you down in competition. Definiately recommend.

The suit is a typical Speedo size (tight) but it''s not very stretchy. I''ve only worn it a few times so far, and taking it off when it is wet is not fun.  This suit is touted as "Endurance" (to last long) so maybe the reason the suit lasts longer is because the material is not stretchy? Because it is not stretchy, the straps dig into my chest a bit. it''s a good suit, but not the most comfortable. I''m hoping with more time, it will stretch a little bit more.

Runs a little small, but that is okay. Just order a size up if you are unsure.  My daughter needed a purple and black swim suit for her swim team.  The suit they offered was a regular speedo suit, but they practice nearly every day and I don''t think it would last the season.  The endurance suits are worth the extra cost because they last.

Tight fit with no give! Like the style but wish I'd ordered one size up!
