“The stitching on the side panel gave-out today...
This suit survived about 500 statue miles swum plus 4-6 weekly in-pool training sessions over 44 weeks, during which it was exposed for more than 750 hours to a bromine treated pool.. Though the fabric eventually stretched and the suit lost its original compressive feel, I was able to continue wearing it in concert with a second brief, which provided adequate support and coverage. The fabric, itself, showed no sign of wear or chemical deterioration…
This was an outstanding performance for any practice suit that gets daily, prolonged use.”
“I've only had these about a month and only in salt water . The double layers might be good as we head into winter. I swim almost daily in open Pacific water in skins. Temperatures last year dropped to 45 deg F; 7.2 deg C, and I am hoping the double layers will be warmer than my single layer brief. Otherwise I swim twice a week longer distances in open water wetsuits with these underneath. So far they fill like that will last longer than my Sp---o brand briefs and at a better price point. The wider tie at the waist is more comfortable than my previous brand.”
