TYRMen's Durafast Elite Solid Jammer Swimsuit
S**G
Quality material, craftsmanship, and fit
I purchased these and a pair of Speedo Endurance+ jammers at the same time so that I could see which one I liked better. Absolutely no question...the TYR Durafast jammers are superior in every way. The material is thicker, sturdier, slightly more stretchy (which makes donning and doffing easier), fits my body better, and I will be really surprised if they don't outlast the Speedo suit by a long shot. The only area I'm not fat, but I'm also not rail-thin. Nearly every set of pants, shorts, and jeans I own are size 32 waist. Rarely, a size 31 fits better. I found the size 32 TYR jammers to fit PERFECT, whereas the Speedo Endurance+ jammers of the same size are just a tad too small (too tight around quads and not enough length from crotch to hip). If, like me, you are debating between these TYR Durafast jammers and the competing Speedo Endurance+ jammers, be assured that the TYR suit is a better quality product and unless you are rail thin with small diameter quads, the TYR suit will probably fit better too.

Fits true to size, but legs are a tad tighter than the non-Elite Durafast Solid
These fit true to size. I normally wear men's 34 waist pants (I can fit into 33 in the summer when I am more active) and these in size 34 were a perfect fit, almost skin tight but stretchy enough to allow free movement. They are very low drag and tend to dry quickly. They are a bit tight at the knees but mainly to reduce drag. My thighs measure about 17.125 inches in circumference at the ends of the Jammers, and they are still comfortable but tighter than the non-Elite Solid Jammer. The black color did not seem to fade with the first few swims in an indoor chlorinated pool. The difference between the Durafast Elite and the non-Elite is that the Elite is mainly Polyester with some Spandex. The non-Elite is made completely of Polyester. In terms of comfort and fit, I can't really tell a big difference. Both Durafast lines are advertised as being designed for chlorinated pools.Overall: 5/5 stars, great price, durable construction, near perfect fit

Much better quality than the Speedo jammer
I'm a novice triathlete just starting to get into regular lap swimming at an indoor pool. A jammer is so much more comfortable and easy to swim in than a regular bathing suit. My first jammer was just the regular Speedo model. After about 20 swims totaling maybe 15 hours it started to get real fuzzy and discolored in certain spots. This was after following all wash and care instructions properly. I figured there had to be a better and more durable option.A lot of research led me to this jammer by TYR. Immediately upon opening the package you can tell the material is different. It's thicker (but not too thick) and has a softer feel than the thin Speedo jammer. It fit exactly true to size around the waist, but is a little tight at the leg closure towards my knees. The drawstring is small and almost not needed because the suit fits perfectly. I've only worn this for 2 swims, but already I can tell it's going to last longer than the Speedo.

Great Jammers
Swimming 3 times a week.Coming for the Speedo Endurance+ which I've had for several years, the new version (Speedo) I got felt different and of lesser quality then before, I might of got a faulty model. Replaced by the TYR Durafast material is better in every way, better stitching, thicker and more durable. it does takes longer to dry though. I would purchase again when it will wear out.

Like well enough so bought a second
I’m in between 34 and 36 waist pants. Bought 36 and they fit well. Probably could have gone 34 if I wanted a tighter fit but I like the appearance of 36 and not having my junk shrink wrapped. After only a couple weeks the fabric is holding up well in chlorinated pool at the local YMCA.

Color fads rapidly.
Color faded from black to gray in a couple of months while only using hand soap and cool wate to washr. Fit is excellent.

Great quality, good trunk for lap pools
These are a great pair of lap pool swim trunks. They stand up well to chlorine, washing machines, etc. My husband loves his first pair so much I’m now ordering him a second pair a year after buying the first pair.
