we ordered 3 different brand name suits - Reebok, Speedo, and a Finals. This one was by far the tightest fit - not completely true to measurements - order a size larger probably for the best fit if you can
I have been a long distance open water marathon swimmer for several years now and have struggled to find a comfortable suit in that time. i have problems with most suits chaffing at the neck, shoulder, and sides. I usually just put on more zinc or vasoline and grin and bear it, but I have scars from where the suits inevitably rub these substances away and I'm left with just the suit against my skin, which when you add in salt water, can become a real problem. Enter the Reebok Xcel suit- I purchased it on a whim recently because I liked the pattern and I generally try to pick out a new brand of suit each time I buy things from Swim Outlet in a quest for the perfect fit. Well, I found it! The very first workout I did in this suit, I felt like I wasn't wearing anything at all, except I felt sleeker than I would in the buff. I will be wearing this suit for my big swims this summer. I actually went back and ordered two more so that I would be sure to have a fresh one for the races. Thanks, Reebok!
