Review on EBMORE Swimsuit Chlorine Resistant Athletic Sports & Fitness by Tony Dago

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Fits well and is suitable for tall women, but does not stand up to regular use in the pool.

I didn't know if it would work for me after reading some reviews. I am a fairly tall woman with no large breasts and I was concerned that this would fit me as many people said the size was small for me. Well I usually wear a size 18 so I bought a size 20. It fits very well, even a little lost when it gets wet. I could probably even buy an Ex Large (16-18) and I'm fine so I think the size is pretty much right. What I also really like is the cut. The legs are cut low and do not creep up. When you're my height, you definitely don't want to show off how big your hips and other body parts are in a high-waisted swimsuit. It has one of the best cuts I've seen and is very comfortable even when I'm exercising in the water or swimming on my knees. I bought it because I know I need to lose weight and I used to compete and I love swimming. This swimsuit is perfect, looks great with no frills or flaps to get in the way of lap swimming combined with good coverage so I don't have to overdo it as many one-pieces are designed. The quality seems very good, luckily the padded cups are removable as they were a bit too big for me, but without them it fits and looks ok. Padded cups are not overly large so they fit most women well but will not fit smaller or larger bras; Luckily the suit is well constructed so it fits well without padding. And it has a nice front liner that ensures it isn't see through. Now I swim in a public pool three to four days a week so I'll see how it holds up to the chlorine but so far so good. Of course it has to be washed after every bath, but I hope it keeps its color. The design gives them a nice sleek look so I love the style and hope the colors stay vibrant. This costume is just right for the big and beautiful among us. Update: I downgraded this to three stars as it doesn't stand up to regular swimming in a chlorinated pool. I swim three times a week, every week. Within about two months (24 sessions) she started to turn pale, then she really started to lose elasticity and the tissues became weaker. I always wash my suits well after swimming because I know chlorine is bad for any fabric. I realize very few people swim that often so I still gave it two stars because the fit and style is very good and comfortable, especially for taller women. If you swim infrequently, or usually swim in lakes or the ocean, or if you only occasionally swim in a pool, it's likely to take much longer. This is not the best suit for regular pool swimming.

Pros
  • ✔ DURABILITY: High quality fabric, dries quickly, excellent workmanship. Can be used for a long time. Built-in thin and soft pads to cover, very comfortable.
Cons
  • Not as thick as other picks
