I love this swimsuit. I've worn it several times already. I did order up a size and the fit was great that way. This type of suit is a little hard to get on and off, but I love the freedom it gives me when I swim or do water aerobics.

Great suit - I do a lot of lap swimming and this the second one of these suits I've bought. They last a long time! Kind of snug so you might want to buy one size larger than your norm.

This suit was exactly as shown- fit was perfect - albeit somewhat snug, that is what is shown. I think it true to size- I ordered a medium. I was very satisfied with the suit-- now I'm on the vacation I bought it for and wouldn't you know -- unseasonably cool!

This suit was the perfect fit for me. I went up one size based on other reviews, and was really pleased with how nice it fits. Nice quality fabric and the design of the straps is very comfortable. I am getting a second one, as it is a great length on my short torso and is very flattering.

I like this swim suit very well. I ordered a size larger than normal and it fits just right - which is very tight. I really like the design swirl. I wear it for Aqua Fit class and am happy that the shoulder straps stay in place. I would recommend the suit.

So far, this bathing suit has been great. It's very flattering (for an athletic suit) and holds its shape nicely after drying. My only suggestion is that you may want to buy a size larger than usual-- I've worn it a few times and it still feels very snug and leaves marks on my shoulders.

This is the most flattering competitive suit I've ever owned, and I love it. It's comfortable, it doesn't bunch up, and the fit is great. I do sometimes get a swoosh of water between my breasts, but that will happen in just about anything but a wetsuit. I hardly notice it's there - just keeps everything nicely tucked out of the way. Please get more in stock so I can stock up!

As I am finding with most competition swimsuits, the sizes are a bit askew. Make sure to order one or two sizes larger. The suit is short in the fit, but once you have the correct size it is a great suit.

This was a great buy! I am pretty short but heavy in the middle and this suit fit me like a glove, pretty near perfect. It is very comfortable and it is great for my swimming needs.

Gorgeous swimsuit -- great color, fabric, design, and very slimming too! I do agree with some of the previous reviewers in that this swimsuit is very tight but that's typical of all TYR swimsuits since it's made as a competition suit but very few of us wear them as such. I would recommend ordering one size up for an easier fit but it will likely still be snug because that's the design. I have several TYR swimsuits but this one fit a little differently in that the crotch was a little too wide and the extra material in the groin area was not flattering or comfortable. I was surprised other reviewers hadn't mentioned this but this suit is definitely about a half inch wider in the crotch than my other TYR suits. Perhaps my other suits have a higher leg design which may make a difference so I returned this suit and ordered a different style. TYR swimsuits are a fabulous product and hold up incredibly well after years of use. I still give this suit 4 stars overall and recommend it if it fits your body type.

The swim suit is pretty form fitting - and by that I mean really form fitting. My only issue is that it does not have any boob support. The girls are pressed quite firm by the tight suit, but I would also like to have had some additional support in that area.

Great suit for doing laps. Ran a bit smaller than I thought, so I sent the first one back and got a size bigger. Seems nicely made.

This is a great suit for lap swimmers. The wide shoulder straps are very comfortable. Do order a size up if you are a non-competitive swimmer.

This suit runs small. I am ordering two sizes larger. I am 5'10", 142 pounds with a long torso and work out regularly. I had to return the size 38 and I am ordering a 40 and 42 as the 38 was very tight. I would love to find a lap suit with a longer torso.

I ordered a size larger than I usually wear, which was also a size larger than the size chart indicated I needed, and it wss still too small. Too bad, I loved the style.

I love the look (from the front) of this suit. The back is another story. It has a wide cut out in the back. might be cute if you have no middle fat, but for anyone with just a bit of extra around the middle (and I wear a size 8), this accentuates any extra body fat that is there. Makes me look ten pounds heavier...and we all enjoy that, don't we? lol. I am sending it back today.

I can't really rate this, because it didn't fit right. I am 5'3", 130#, I ordered the 36 (largest size available) because all the reviews said it ran small. Too tight. I am ordering a different style in several sizes, hoping one of them fits.

Great suit. the largest size is way small. I'm 5'6" and 128#. Would be nice if Speedo would make this great material into a bit bigger suit.

Runs very small. Even when you consider that it is supposed to fit snug.

The suit fit fine going on until we got to the girls. The XL didn't have any support or control, which I would have thought would be in the larger sizes. Because of the other reviews. I ordered and XL when I normally would have ordered a L. I have no hips. It didn't look horrible across the bust when I tried it on but I was concerned about the fit once the suit got wet and was washed a few times. Fast shipping though. Unfortunately will also be a quick turnaround on the return.

Please add a version of this suit with sleek semi cups. I swim laps but I'm not 25 years old anymore! Come on...there are real people in this world!
