Speedo Men's Endurance+ Mercury Splice Jammer Swimsuit

These Speedo Endurance jammers are perfect for frequent lap swimming because they don't wear out. The only thing I've noticed with these polyester jammers is after a long long time they tend to shrink a little. Unlike nylon suits, which wear out quickly, become faded, and lose their elasticity.If you want a practice suit that lasts forever, buy this. I hate people that complain about jammers being "too tight", but with these polyester ones you might consider one size bigger because the shrink over time, at least from my experience owning several of these over the years.I still prefer the nylon jammers because those fit and feel better. They just wear down fast.

The suit is great, but be forewarned, it definitely runs small. I wear a size 28 waist in everything from dress slacks to jeans to bahama shorts. I ordered a 28 in these and couldn't even get them on. After returning them for a replacement I made the mistake of only going up to a 30 for the replacement pair. I can at least get them on, but barely, and they are seriously tight everywhere - in the thighs, the waist, everywhere. They couldn't get any tighter if I sprayed them on. It's too late to return these or I probably would and go up to a 32. Note that despite the sizing issue I would still get these over many others. The build quality is excellent and the material is strong, and if they weren't so tight the fit would be comfortable. Just order a bit larger than you normally would and all will be great.

Udated. While my son uses Speedo endurance, this was mislabled, and it's not an endurance suit; no wonder it was so cheap. It is a Speedo, but wrong fabric and the cloth label doesn't say endurance which they no longer do.My son, who swims year round, has tried various long-life jammers, sometimes just to try them but sometimes because they are chosen as the team suit for the season. He finds that Speedo Endurance fits and performs the best for him. He does wash them himself according to manufacturers label, and I do recommend following that as well.

I pool swim 3 to 4 times a week(4 to 5 hours),and I've worn the Speedo Endurance line for the last 5 years and I can say that this item holds up very well and has met my expectations .The color will generally remain the same for the first 3 to 4 months providing you wash them out with tap water after each use. The stitching is very stong and durable and shows no signs of fraying,but alas the Chlorine will turn it white around month 4 or 5. I generally will retire my Endurance Jammers every 6 months or so.

I do not like giving one star but in this case I have to do it. I bought this piece of swimwear because I already had a Speedo endurance which I have used for 3-4 years, and I have been very happy with it. I usually swim once a week. I ordered the same size I was using, but this one is much tighter, but the other one also was tight when it was new. I bought this thinking it was going to last too, but...it broke after one swim. One of the seams got loose. Actually the seam did not break, but in one place the fabric under the seam was so scarce that it frayed. The fabric seems to be a little thinner than the old one. If you are going to order one, I would recommend buying one size bigger than the one you usually wear.

We've been buying Speedo Endurance suits for our boys, and they hold up well. I fully expect these too, also. They are tight, though. I wear a 32" waist in pretty much everything from suits to biking shorts, but I can't quite pull these up all the way. Its not that my thighs are massive, or that I'm an old man trying to pull them up past my belly button or anything. They're just a bit small on the legs.

My old Speedo swimsuit was getting thin after about a year swimming twice a week. I purchased this one because it is supposed to be more resistant to Chlorine. I wear a size 34 jeans, but when I measure my waistline, it's actually 36. Fit is great. The material is different and thicker than my old Speedo, so this one seems like it should last longer.

Been using these for quite awhile lap swimming, was just going to try another brand because the stitching on these would fade to white way before the trunks were worn out, but finally on the last pair they seem to have fixed that issue, if these work the same I will stick with speedo.
