I've been working out for years and several months ago I decided to improve my swim fitness because I'm training for my first triathlon. I was a bit hesistant to wear a speedo - especially in a public pool. I was used to the typical baggy swim trunks. So my feelings were more of insecurity wearing what at the time was a much skimpier and revealing suit. <br/><br/>I purchased this speedo because I liked the design. It came and as soon as I pulled it out of the package, I was like "no way - this is too revealing for me". My waist is a 31-32 (I'm 5 feet, 10.5 inches, 175 pounds) and I ordered the 32 size. As I pulled it up - it seemed a little tight, but managed to get it fully on and it actually felt great - not too tight, not loose). Still - I didn't have the confidence and I looked up online how other people looked in similiar speedos. I saw I looked about the same so I took a chance, brought it to the public gym pool where I train and I loved it! It felt so comfortable in the water and it was nice to not have that swim drag. Most people seemed not to notice except for a few smiles from the ladies, which I took as a reassuring sign. <br/><br/>The material was comfortable and using the proper care stated on the label (tap water wash after chlorine exposure, hang dry) I've swam only about a dozen times, but it seems to hold up beautifully. The material seems strong. <br/><br/>Overall - for my first speedo - this particular product felt fantastic to swim in, the size (32) was perfect, and it fits well. I would recommend this product to others simply because of the swim feel and what I believe is high quality material. Keep in mind however, I don't have other speedos or race trunks to compare this one to. At the very least, the stripes on this model are nicely fashionable. This is the first speedo I purchased.

Substantial fabric. Great price. The test is in their durability and resistance to chlorine. Good fit. Substantial fabric. Great price. The test is in their durability and resistance to chlorine.
