I am going to buy my 12 year old daughter a high performance swimsuit for christmas. Price is not an issue. Any recommendations on what is the best suit out there right now?

  • Since this seems to be a similar scenario among a few different people, I think it may be the clothing companies. Honestly, I think it's a marketing thing (and no one...ladies...take this wrong), but you all may be the same size as when you were younger, but the clothing companies may be making the sizes larger to "trick" people into believing they're actually going down in sizes. :whiteflag: Just a thought...not trying to start a war. You are exactly right, James. That is exactly what they are doing. But, they couldn't trick me. :nono: I caught on to their little game, as did gobears. :chug: Honestly, I don't care what size label is sewn into my clothes. If I am comfortable with my weight and fitness level (I am), that's good enough for me, whether my jeans are labeled size 8 or 4. Sorry, garment industry! :thhbbb:
