 speedo swim suits September 12, 2008
These speedo swim suits are a good value in my opinion. They fit well, snug but not tight and they last for about 6 months. I swim w/ a masters group and am in chlorinated water 4 to 5 times/week.
 Disappointed September 1, 2008
The size advertised ("36"), and delivered (36")as evidenced by the label, did not match the actual small waist size of the product(approximately 30-32"). Was this the reason this product was so inexpensive- improper labeling at the factory?
 It's Speedos... June 5, 2008
...for swimming laps in the pool. That's it. I don't even wanna talk about.
A Classic - Gets the Job Done October 24, 2007
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I'm a U.S. Master's competitive swimmer, and I've been swimming most of my life. Over the years, I've tried racing briefs like this from just about every major manufacturer out there - Speedo, Tyr, Nike, Adidas, Arena, Dolfin, Hind, Victor, and Finals just to mention some.
This one is a timeless classic. It's comfortable and reasonably durable, and does it's job well. It comes in a great selection of colors. The only thing I don't like about it is that over the years, Speedo keeps making the sides wider and wider. It's got a lot of coverage now - a cut Jerry Falwell would love. If you like lots of coverage, that's great, but I find that as a result, these start to bag and sag on me as they loosen up, as lycra suits tend to do with use, and I swim 7 days a week... I've grown to prefer Tyr suits for their briefer, more comfortable and more flattering fit - that's just personal preference, though. Both are good brands.
Also, if you swim a lot, take a look at this same suit in Speedo's polyester-blend fabric "Endurance" line, if you want one that really holds up well over the long run.
 Cuts into thighs too tight and doesn't last very long October 3, 2007

I'm a regular swimmer (3 times / week). These look cool but cuts into the thighs. Also, after about 10 months it falls apart, even though I'm very careful about maintenance, like not stretching it too much when pulling it on and off and rinsing it throughly in fresh water after using it in a chlorinated pool.
