Review on Speedo Swimsuit Endurance Graphic Anthracite by Austin Olson

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great quality and looks, but beware of the size!

This is another excellent, well made swimsuit from Speedo, bought in the Pride version for Pride Month. Expect the quality you are used to from the Speedo brand in terms of material, appearance, design and wearing comfort. However, as other reviewers have noted, the size is really, REALLY not the right size for it! I'm 5ft 9in, 155lbs, 30 waist (muscular legs) and usually get a 32 or worst case scenario 34 with the Speedo brand - usually depending on whether I'm in swim shape or not, or their different product lines. I ordered a 32 and 34 for this, considering other sizing reviews and knowing that 32 tends to be a bit tight and 34 tends to be a bit looser. It turned out that size 32 was too small and size 34 was a bit tight. Take everyone's advice here and ORDER AT LEAST TWO SIZES OVER YOUR WAIST - I would even consider THREE sizes over your waist, especially if you have muscular legs. and/or not looking for something more competitive (especially if you are new to the Speedo brand). I'll keep 34 for competitive swimming and try 36 to see if it's good for all-around swimming/beach or training. Would have given it 5/5 stars if it wasn't for the annoying size difference, especially knowing their brand so it gets 4/5.

Pros
  • Race Jersey
Cons
  • So far so good
