 Fantastic swimsuit! June 20, 2008

Look no further - it doesn't better than this. Retail value $74.99, half price on Amazon. 100% polyester is the only way to go if you intend to use your swimsuit in chlorinated water... ever. This is not the unyielding polyester swimsuit of 1970's PE classes - if you haven't tried one recently you'll be surprised at how stretchy and comfortable it is. The fabric is much softer than any polyester swimsuit I've ever owned, making it suitable for beachwear as well. In the maroon/pink version, the pink is brighter than it looks, and the silver is really reflective while still maintaining its stretchiness. The front is fully lined. The back is not lined, but this isn't a problem since polyester doesn't wear thin like lycra and spandex do. It has high-quality double stitching throughout. It has 3/4" wide straps that cross in the back. Size is true to standard in competitive swimsuits - if you want to buy this to swim, order your normal size. If you want to buy this to wear on leisurely weekends, order one size larger than normal or you may find it uncomfortably tight when it's not wet. At this price, buy two... you won't regret it.
