A little tight, but I can tell that this suit will last me and won't wear down like the other suits ive had.
I measured and remeasured and I THOUGHT that I had the right size. I guess not. I can squeeze in but the suit is quite tight and distracting while trying to swim.I love the color and cut but the size issue makes it difficult to LOVE this suit the way I want too.Unfortunately the size problem was not as evident until I swam in the suit. Sometimes trying it on isn't even an accurate determination of how the suit will perform.I am satisfied with the service though and may order a replacement suit at a later time.
This was my first competition suit. Got it for swimming laps a couple times a week. I wouldn't buy another because it was hard to get into and out of and painfully tight around the neck. Maybe this was a size issue but I'd ordered my usual size. That said, the suit hasn't stretched out or faded so it seems to be good quality. It doesn't ride up on the butt cheeks either :)
I am 5ft. 6in. tall with a slim build and I swim twice a day, five days a week. This suit retains its shape and color very well and it fits great... from just above the hips up. The only thing about this suit that has me thinking that I probably wouldn't buy it again is everything from the hips down. It is cut reeeeally high and constantly rubs my hip bones. When you're in the water for two and a half hours, that is something you really don't want. The other thing I didn't like about the suit was the behind. It seems to me that there should have been a little more fabric used in the butt area, and I have a small butt. MAJOR wedgie suit. It starts to take on a thong appearance if you don't keep picking it. I would have to recommend going with something else. Which is really too bad because it is a very nice suit.
This is my second Dolfin Poly Solid. I average 2-3 times per week in highly chlorinated pool, aerobics and laps. I actually like the "too small" feel and the coverage, and the fabric holds up and doesn't fade. I don't mind having to roll it off or the fact that the straps do get a little stiff; not the best cut in back for my shape either. But these are minor problems considering the reasonable price and the wear I've gotten. Will definitely order another one when the time comes.
I use it for my aerobic class, I like the cut and the feel.sizing is not right, there is no give in the suit at all. I think it would be better if the straps in the back would open & close with a clip or something it would be easier to get on, can't be to bad cause I just ordered 2 more
