Modest suits

Even though as swimmers, most of us look "pretty good" for our ages, I still can't help but think that walking around in a modern Speedo is disconcerting for some. Most of the suits are cut for kids who are 22 years old or younger and have as much material in them as a hankie. The correct waist size suit covers less body than my Fruit-of the Looms. Does anyone know of a manufacturer selling a suit more like the old Ocean-Pacific suits we had back in the 60's? I want to wear a traditional suit and not one of the newer body-suits. I know it doesn't bother other masters swimmers, but I recently officiated a USA meet where a 37 year old man entered and walking around in his Speedo looked very out of place among the kids. Basically, I'm just wondering if there's a more modest alternative on the market.

    Water polo suits tend to be cut a little longer on the side. Many catalogs will tell the length of the side seam, compare against the suit you have. I just wear my lycra suits a long time and look like the saggy baggy elephant. Swim fast, Greg
