i swim daily and these suits never fade and retain their shape for many months
great suit
I bought this as a practice suit and have bought the same exact type of suit years ago and the size was perfect. And the suit lasted so long I still use the old one! However, now they must have changed they way they design their suits because the size (same as the old) is too small.
I do like this suit. It is mostly polyester and I can tell it will wear well, but they put a little lycra in it to make it a little softer and more comfortable. My only complaint is that like most suits, it is a little short for us tall girls. I am 5"11" and it is hard to find a long suit that is not an old lady suit. There is not too much give so it does feel like it rides up.
I liked the style better when it had white straps with the royal blue, but it looks ok.
I bought two sizes smaller than my speedo polyester suit, and it fits fine. I would definitely buy one to two sizes smaller than your speedo size. Great suit... The polyester will last, but it's also soft!
