"Long Lasting Product"

I've been using Speedo products over 20 years never had to change to any other brand for swimming gear. Speedo makes it for last and it's always durable, this one I got it for almost 9 months, after every use rinse with cold water becomes like new. 4 stars

"Very clear decrease in quality"

I am a regular swimmer and I have been buying that same reference from Speedo for several year (70800). Usually they are lasting 6 to 7 months, 3 swims a week, clear water rinsing and air dried.
Last July I bought several suits of that reference here and I immediatly noticed a change in the construction of the suit. I started to use one in September and after only 2 months the suit is falling apart.
The impression at reception was confirmed. Some savings are made by Speedo in their manufacturing process but they did not warn the customer or change the item reference. 1 star

"Training tank suit"

This suit is great. All tank suits fit the same, but many have problems with the drawstring. It can fray, break, stretch or slip. This suit has none of those problems, it fits well and the drawstring stays put but is easy to untie even when wet. Great for training. 5 stars

"A Good Basic Speedo"

This is the basic Speedo bathing suit - it's good quality and great for sunning, swimming and training. They come in even waist sizes and are very snug fitting so you need to order it one size bigger. I have a bubble butt and even though I have a 32" waist I needed to order a size 34" for it to fit properly. They are durable and hold up well so it's a good buy overall and I recommend it. 4 stars

"excellent training brief"

This is a standard Speedo brief; lots of lycra, no sags, and a very good cotton drawstring that stays tight during laps. I swim 1K daily, so my suits get a good workout. To make it last, remember to rinse in non-chlorinated water after each use and wring dry (don't use the centrifuge). 5 stars
