What tips do you all have for keeping a racing suit functional as long as possible? I have been thoroughly enjoying my first one, after a few fashion/fitness models this is so much more comfortable!!!! However, it has already "given out" in a couple spots and I've only worn it about six weeks. For me that is 4 - 5 times/week. Will 30 workouts mark the beginning of the end of a racing suit? I do rinse it out after every swim in medium temperature water = cool shower water.
Any tips of the trade??? What do you all do to keep your suits going?
Thanks!!!

I had a suit and wore it for one year. I only washed it once outside of whatever it got from in the shower and shampoo. It was rolled in a towel in my bag, left in the car for G-d knows how long at times. Never smelled more than chlorine. One year later it was the same size and color as the day I bought. it. The company makes mostly fitness and instructor suits but they do have a competition line. Not as many fabric designs but some are servicable. They are a little pricey but they last alot longer.
