Comments about Danskin Women's Triathlon Swimsuit:

I like the cut and style of the suit very much. However, I wish that it was fully lined and offered more of a compression fit like other training and competition suits. It would also be nice if there was a place on the suit to attach the end of the zipper pull, as there is on a wetsuit, so that it does not fly around your head while you are swimming.

I would buy this product again and again

Comments about Danskin Women's Triathlon Swimsuit:

I use this suit for lap swimming in preparation for a triathlon. Like the high zipper in back with pull cord, very convenient and fast and easy for quick changes. Bought a size 6, have regular measurements, and it covers well, but would like to have more padding in bra area to keep from showing through either wet or dry. This will keep me from using it during co-ed swims. Otherwise, nice fit, very comfortable and useful for swim training.

Comments about Danskin Women's Triathlon Swimsuit:

The suit went on fine w/o endless tugging and arm discomfiture and I especially loved the zipper pull to help zip up the back. There was nothing like that on my previous Speedo high back bathing suit and I attached a string myself.

I am highly satisfied w/the fit, the flexibility and look of the suit.

Nice suit but has no bust support!

Comments about Danskin Women's Triathlon Swimsuit:

I like the fabric and feel of this suit, but unfortunately, unless you're a rock solid 20 year old, there is virtually no bust support! Even just for lounging around at the beach, I wouldn't be able to wear this suit without a sports bra (and I'm not that big - 36C).

Comments about Danskin Women's Triathlon Swimsuit:

Awesome suit for the price. I can’t say enough. It is a great suit for any serious water sports. It may not be Shark skin but the make is strong, the coverage is good, and there are no bad places to capture water and slow you down. Also, the zip is in the back out of the way and it has a nice flat and soft pull chord. The only thing that would make it better is if the zipper chord was removable/detachable, but then again it would be me to forget to bring it.

Comments about Danskin Women's Triathlon Swimsuit:

This is the 3rd time I purchased this suit. Love the bust support! It does wear out really fast though. Well constructed zipper in the back. No problem with it coming down. I do wish it was made in a more durable fabric. I'm sure I will purchase again!!

Comments about Danskin Women's Triathlon Swimsuit:

I purchased this suit on a friend's recommendation for a triathlon I was competing in. It was great - the fit was good, it was comfortable through all three events, and I think it was definitely worth the money. I did need to wear a sports bra with it as well to be comfortable in the run.

Comments about Danskin Women's Triathlon Swimsuit:

As I train and lose weight and change shape, this great suit fits and still fits! The long string on the zipper to get it on and off is a wonderful idea, and makes me feel like one of those Olympics ladies!

Comments about Danskin Women's Triathlon Swimsuit:

I was a little apprehensive about paying the price for this swimsuit. Once I received it, tried it on, and tried it out, I was so impressed with the quality, the price didn't matter. I would definitely suggest this product to anyone wanting a swimsuite that covers up, doesn't slide off the shoulders, or reveal more than you want it to.

Comments about Danskin Women's Triathlon Swimsuit:

Suit worked well and was comfortable. I am heavy chested and had a problem with drag in my other swim suits once I put a sports bra under it for racing this suits neck came high enough so that it limited the drag in the suit. I will buy another one.

Comments about Danskin Women's Triathlon Swimsuit:

I always struggle to find a good lap suit that offers my bosom (I'm buxom and 43 so the girls are "going down") support without feeling the "drag" of a shelf bra. I do have to admit that I still have to add the tri-bra so I can wear the suit for triathlons.

Comments about Danskin Women's Triathlon Swimsuit:

It is like a second skin. I like the fact that my breast stay in, as with other suits the "girls" like to go out to the sides. It can be challenging to zip the suit. Must admit it does have a nice solid zipper to be able to take the pressure of being pulled up. I would most likely wear it more if it has some form of pocket for protected asthma inhaler.

Takes a while to get the zipper up. Arm holes are a little big for larger busted women. Suit is comfortable to wear and swim in.

Comments about Danskin Women's Triathlon Swimsuit:

I swim 4 to 5 times a week - and love the design of the suit until I got in the water. It completely lost its shape and was just way too big.
