I've noticed my Teva Mush flip flops smell awful when they are slightly wet & I leave them in my car. So I leave them outside my car on the window under my windshield wiper blades, they dry faster, don't stink up my car & so far they haven't been stolen. Done this with towels & suits too
dry rubber tech suits inside out
keep your goggles inside a case when you're not using them & they won't get as scratched up
please share what works for you

Yes, the endurance material lasts forever, but the seams are a different story. Mine separated right up the middle of the backside during practice, giving the guy behind me a nasty shock.:blush:
My ugly $28 close-out Speedo Endurance lasted for 11/2 years of 5-6 sessions per week- until I was on a cruise ship. After a long session of sculling and egg-beater kick drills in the postage stamp-sized, over-chlorinated solarium pool, I got out and bent over to pick up my towel and other things from the lounge chair. Meanwhile a of partiers had jumped into the pool by that time. And, did I mention that my back was turned to them when I bent over to get my things??
I went back to my cabin to shower and it wasn't until I took my suit off that I noticed the huge split right down the back of my suit! :afraid: And, the sides were starting to split by then, as well. :blush:
