TYReco Solid Square Leg Swimsuit

Not usually into square cut jammers, I prefer the range of motion that briefs allow, but am pleasantly surprised by the fit and the feel! Using these for laps.

Perfect fit!

I swam competitively for many years and later went on to coach as well. After taking a long break from the sport, I recently decided to get back into lap swimming. At this stage in life, I was not completely comfortable wearing traditional swim briefs anymore, but I also did not want the full coverage of jammers. These ended up being the perfect middle ground. They fit very well and have a clean, athletic look. For reference, I normally wear a 34–35 waist in shorts and pants, but I purchased these in a size 36. Keep in mind that they are designed to fit snugly, which is important for reducing drag in the water. Once on, they conform nicely to the body and allow you to focus more on your stroke and kick technique instead of constantly adjusting your suit. This is actually my second pair of the same suit. I originally bought the blue version and later picked up this black one after the first pair eventually stretched out from regular use. I swim one to two times per week, and the original pair lasted just under a year before showing signs of stretching and wear. To be fair, I am not especially gentle with them. I throw them in the washing machine and then hang dry them afterward. I also tend to lean against pool walls, which are not exactly known for being smooth and can be rough on swimwear material over time. TYR has always been a trusted swimwear brand in my experience, and I will continue coming back to them because this suit has served me very well.

An excellent choice for my son, who is a swimmer. They stay in place well and are comfortable

I've ordered about 6 of these over a ~5 year period. I wear them as practice liners under a jammer suit, and both suits get tossed in the dryer (which you aren't supposed to do) 5 or 6 times a week. This suit is a bit thin and clingy for my taste but those features make it work well as a liner. After about a year a seam will rip out completely. I always practice in two suits since I swim in a public pool and don't want a seam failure to cause a stir....and when you throw your suits in a dryer the seams tend to tear completely when they blow out.

This product has been redesigned and unfortunately the newer design/structure/fit is an unwearable failure. My purchase history shows I've ordered 14 of these square-cut suits from Amazon dating back to July of 2012--about 1 per year, with each lasting approx. 10-12 months, swimming 2-3 times per week. Eventually they lose elasticity and fade, but I would expect this from chlorine exposure. The latest purchase shows a redesign with a double-seam center instead of a single central seam. (see pics of a size 36 old style vs. a size 38 new style which is actually smaller) Also, the side length is now shorter and flared out and the fabric feels thicker/heavier. To their credit, TYR replaced the scratchy interior tag (which I always cut out before wearing) with a printed label and the "TYR" logo is now stitched instead of printed. Unfortunately, the net effect of the redesign is a MUCH smaller and tighter suit. I wore the new one once and it left red marks on my waist and thighs despite heeding the warning of other buyers and ordering a larger size. Also, the new suit has MUCH less room for the male anatomy making this product redesign completely uncomfortable and a huge failure. This will be returned, and I'll be looking at another brand. What a shame.

Good quality and fits perfectly

I am 6'4" and I weigh 170 lbs. I normally take a 33" waist. I thought I could comfortably order size 34, but no! Then I tried 36 and again, no! I ended up in a size 40 and I honestly could not take anything smaller. Now, I have worked in fashion for over 30 years and I am really good at fit, this is an absolute joke. I know the economics involved so i am at a loss. Considering, that there is a disclaimer that states that this item has a very high return rate, so check the size chart which I did, Tyr must be in utter denial unless this is some private label thing that Amazon is doing, because the price of this is 40% less on Amazon than it is directly from Tyr. There is a myriad of swim trunks available on Amazon that are imported from China that have Asian sizing, which is much smaller than your average US / European sizing. I just didn't expect that from Tyr. So, honestly, if you are ordering these, you may want to order several sizes because you are probably not going be the size you think you are, regardless of the size chart. That being said, the shorts are perfectly fine, once you settle on the correct size:).

After single use the fabric starts to fade and deteriorate

EXCELENTE, MUCHAS HORAS DE NADO Y APENAS EMPIEZA A DESGASTARSE, Y LA VERDAD NO LO CUIDO TANTO COMO ENJUAGAR Y ASI DESPUES DE USO Y YA DURO BASTANTE. YA SE PAGO

The swimming suit is quite nice and fits me well. I can swim faster now.

un poco justo, pero en general bien.

It was tight in the legs soI went up a size, and now a great fit. Drawstring makes it work. lining in front. Only warn a few times, hoping it lasts as long as others experience.
