Been racing in a B70 NeroTX. Six meets and twelve competition days. On the second day of the meet at Auburn, it started to show those white frayed thinning areas in the chest, crotch and back seam. So it's obviously on its way out.
I have taken good care of it. Always rinsing in clear water after each day, not taking it on and off too much, always hanging immediately to dry, never leaving wadded up in my swim bag.
Now that we've been racing in the new generation of suits since July, I was curious about other's experience with their suits. What brand are you wearing and how has it held up? Is my suit life typical or have your suits lasted longer?

FYI:
For the Yingfa suits (at least the male version), I ordered a Large size, which says 28-30, and it fits pretty good. In other Speedo/TYR brand suits I've been using a 30.
Thanks - it might be slightly different for us girlies though - see my TYR is a 30 and very easy to get on, so I if I were to get another one I would definitely go to a 28. However I still have an old size 30 Speedo with zipper back that is a really snug fit - this one might be a kids size :laugh2:. Also my TYR endurance is bigger on my shoulders than my Speedo endurance and they're both supposedly 34! I'll see what Amy reports, or maybe buy one in each size & return one.:dunno:
