I have owned this drag suit for about six months and it is still as nice (not discolored in the slightest) as it was when I first bought it. Six months is not an extremely long amount of time, but when you consider that it lasted through a three month swim season with two hour practices 6 days a week, in a pool filled with chlorine, the quality is undeniable. The Speedo company has proven that it designs quality products and this drag suit is no exception.

Good trunk for training. The tiny holes and the slight bagginess of the trunk allows for a slight drag that creates resistance to strengthen your strokes. Plus it has the hadded bonus of discretion. You guys know what I’m talking about….

I am a size 30 in jeans so I thought it would be fine if I ordered a size 30 in these. I had seen other posts recommending to order a sizer bigger but I though: “Nah, that can’t be my case.”
I got a size 30 and everything fit nicely except for the part above the thighs. It felt really tight, as if it was going to cut off blood flow. I am super fit, swimmer build but I guess my thighs are above average thickness.
I’ve ordered a size 32 and it was a little tight still but better fit.
You might have to order 1 to 2 sizes bigger depending on the thickness of your legs.
Otherwise, they seem to be a great product. I’ve tried them out in the pool, no complaints. I feel more comfortable wearing them because they have a looser look due to the mesh. They look great.

I got this suit both for training as well as to wear to the beach or recreational swimming. The mesh isn’t see thru due to a solid fabric layer underneath. The material also looks pretty good.
However the cut of the suit leaves something to be desired. I thought that since it’s considered a square leg suit, the legs would extend a bit below the crotch of the suit. Big negative; in reality its cut more like brief underwear. And since the suit is meant to be baggy for training, it looks like baggy brief underwear. I think it looks like a diaper to be honest.
And despite the legs being tight to keep everything inside this looser suit, it will not keep you covered if your legs are spread 45 degrees or so apart.
It should hold up to regular use in chlorinated water tho. I would use this ONLY as a training suit. Had this suit utilized this mesh material and the square leg cut that is used on suits made of stretchy material, it coulda been worn anywear you wear a swimsuit to.

… or people who aren’t interested in swimming for exercise:
This is not the type of swim suit you’d wear to the beach, or even to the pool if you’re not planning on doing laps. The whole point of wearing these baggy things is so that water gets caught between the mesh and the inner layer of the suit providing a greater drag force which requires you to use more force to swim faster. Basically, these are used for lap training. People who swim competitively wear these during practice (or maybe even in meets where they’re sure they’ll win
) and take them off when speed counts (ie big meets). Try swimming with these and a Speedo on and compare it to wearing just a Speedo; there’s a noticeable difference in how easy it is to move around.
That said, these are great. I didn’t start using one until a few years into my competitive life but once I did start I loved it. It easily provides a nice amount of drag without it being too bulky (ie wearing a weight belt) or anything.
