TYR Polyester Durafast Elite Solid Square Leg Mens Swim Suit, 30 (Black)

This was my second pair. I bought it on Apr 5, 2021 and it gave up the ghost on Aug 13, 2022. It was tight for the first 4 months, loosened up for several months, but material still strong; after that it became droopy. The stitching in the backside came apart (picture attached). Same spot for both suits. :) I hope it didn't rip while I was doing breaststroke in the pool and someone noticed. :yikes!: Both suits lasted about the same time. I swam in these 4 days a week, an hour each day. That equals approximately 284 hours (4 × 71 weeks). I took good care of them: washed away the chlorine after each use and hung dry not directly in the sun. These were better than Speedo (which tend to be very thin).The material is thick, comfortable, doesn't print the crotch, sizing is accurate. I would get slightly smaller since they'll loosen after few months so you can wear them longer.

sizing is accurate, I normally wear small and the size 30 worked fine. I'm average build and my thighs are not thin.

This is a durable swim suit, I swam in my last one for a couple of years, due to the suit being: 94% Polyester and 6% Spandex. Polyester is the key - may last Tyr suit lasted 2 years. I swim 2-3 times/week, 7,000-9,000 yards a week. (My last Speedo suit, Lycra / cotton) wore out in 6 months! Heavier / solid fabric with just enough stretch

I have been using this swim trunk for about two months five or six days a week for two hours each time. For the first few weeks, the elasticity of the cloth held on fairly well and stay close to the skin during swimming. But after a while, I noticed the front and back were getting somewhat droopy like I was wearing an excessive overhang. Now, each time I get out of the water, I have to adjust it so that it won't show the shape of my private in the front and the saggy cloth on the backside. I am thinking of using another possibly two more months and have to replace it with something else before it makes me look like wearing a grandpa's swimwear.

Bought these in hopes that they would mimic my trunk-fit boxer briefs, but they do not. Just a little too short for my comfort level and I'll be sticking to the jammer-style. Love the TYR brand but these are not for me.
