Polyester suits

I am considering buying a poly suit for durability. It is my understanding that poly is thicker than nylon/lycra therefore creating more drag. In the jammer style suit would there be enough additional drag that I should consider poly briefs and stay away from poly jammers? Is the additional drag insignificant and I should not worry about it?

    It's not so much drag that you will be unable to learn. Technique and form can be learned in pretty much any material swim suit. Go for the polyester jammer if that's what you are more comfortable in (especially if you are going to race in a lycra jammer), and don't worry about the drag. :) -Carrie __________________ SwimOutlet.com
