Hi New to Forum w/ question.....probably asked before in some way or another BUT i'll try anyway -
My son (2nd year swimmer, 9yo, broke a pool record in his first season) is in need of a new suit for the season.
He wants a Speedo racer and Speedo Jammers. I'm a divorced mom on a budget and I'm wondering about speed. These things don't affect your performance in any way, do they? He's going to get the same results based on his ability no matter if i spend $14 or $34 on a pair of racers, right? He thinks he needs the name brand speedos or TYRs but after shelling out yet another $140 for the season, plus even more on towels, goggles, deck shoes, personalized sweatshirts and all that..... you know how it is.......is it worth the extra expense? Does anybody have any feedback?
Thank you in advance!!!!!!!!!

thanks for your quick reply.
this year the team suit is a solid black speedo - style racer, and/or solid black jammers. they are asking parents to go get them on their own for some reason. last year it just seemed easier when the team ordered them for us and we just gave them the $, it was quite a savings ordering for a team with the discounts acquired - but it seems ordering an individual Speedo is quite expensive.
