Ok everyone, another quick observation/question. In my long and distinguished career in the pool (big time sarcasm for Elaine), I have noticed trends on the suits of choice. Females tend to be pretty consistent with their choices, either the traditional one piece, an occasional workout bikini, or even the performance full body length. Males on the other hand seem to be jammers, and then there's me still wearing the old school briefs style. I am almost always the only one at any pool I go to. Now it doesn't make me feel awkward or anything, but it's just something I have noticed, both in my solo time and my time with the team.
Thoughts?
I wonder how much swimming indoors vs. swimming outdoors affects suit choice as well. As a (mostly) outdoor swimmer, I've sometimes let tan lines be a factor in suit choice (more so when I was younger).
I always wore briefs, but all the guys at my main pool were wearing jammers so, since I race in them I thought I might as well practice in them. I'm used to them now.
I don't know why, but I've never been able to get used to jammers. I've always worn briefs.
