I have been looking for this type of swimwear for a while to give as a gift to my brother. It fits him perfectly and it serves well the purpose for which he is using it, daily swimming in a club pool. It feels light and he loves it!
So far, these are pretty good, but they do seem to create more drag than I expected. If it were not for that, I would give it 5 stars. Speedo always turns out a good product.
this suit fits very well. I chose the size a little larger than my waist on the recommend of another review. i agree that the suit would run a little small if you went down a size. It fits perfectly. Great product.
I followed another reviewer's suggestion to order one size larger. I'm glad I did - it turned out to be a great fit. No worries about any part of this outfit going against water to slow you down or have it come off.
I use this suit for lap swimming (exercise) three or four days a week in an indoor, YMCA pool, with a fairly high chlorine count. In the past, I would wear out suits every three or four months due to chlorine. This suit lasts for many months, well more than a year. It's comfortable and durable. I hope they never quit making it.
This is my second suit. The first I had for over a year. The color never faded. Which is really good since I swim 5 days a week in heavy chlorinated pools. Pros - color never faded, material never got thin or stretched out. Suit lasted twice as long as 100% nylon suit. Maybe longer if seams lasted.Con - the seams on the suit faded to white (on the black suit), a friend has the blue suit and it's seams never faded. The seams also started to fall apart, I don't know if it was cheap thread or my wear.
