I recently purchased a pair of TYR resistance shorts. They are 100% nylon and have a drawstring to prevent the suit from falling off. Question: Is it appropriate to wear these resistance shorts as a stand-alone item or would you recommend wearing a speedo underneath. The resistance shorts have netting. Any opinions? Thanks.

I would wear a suit underneath those. My thoughts on the whether one should wear an extra suit are... if you have to ask, than the answer is yes.
This is sort of off the topic, but I've discussed this issue before:
U.S. Masters Swimming Discussion Forums - View Single Post - "not so drag" suit..
In summary, it's just a matter of how you want to expend energy and effort - by swimming faster or just making the water move faster.
