My current pair of jammers (Nike) are about to give up the ghost (and a lot more of me if I keep wearing them). I need to replace them.
Between Nike, Tyr, and Speedo, who makes the most durable jammers? I don't want to spend more than $30-40.
Also, what's the best way to care for jammers? Is it bad to dry them by wrapping them in a towel and twisting it? How do I keep them from getting all stretched out?
Let me throw in my vote for the Speedo Endurance suits as well. I have a couple of suits that are easily over a year old and are still going strong with no fading, stetching, or bagging. They are great. I did switch from jammers to the shorter square leg suits about about a year and a half ago. In March of this year, I switched to briefs with a drag suit over them for training. I had to get over the modesty issue with the shorter cut suits. I eventually realized that the jammers are no less revealing than briefs, they just provide the illusions of modesty.
Back to the fabric, I think Speedo's endurance fabric is much more durable and get less baggy than the equivalent material from Tyr or Dolphin (I haven't tried any others). I haven't purchased as suit in any other fabric in quite some time.
