I train in Speedo briefs but find that after about 2 to 3 months they start to get threadbare. Have considered buying a size up so that there won't be so much tension on the fabric and, therefore, hopefully won't deteriorate so quickly. What does everyone else train in?

The 100% polyester suits would last forever except the seams end up giving out, as mentioned by Fortress. My TYR poly mesh drag suit just split the seam at the crotch a couple weeks ago. Other than that you'd think it was brand new! I guess if you're a good seamstress maybe they will last forever.
I always used to use 100% nylon suits. They last quite a while, but fade in color quickly. Don't use a suit that contains lycra for practice purposes.
