3.0 out of 5 stars. Performed well, quality is not good.Verified Buyer Reviewed by Hoards of Fun! from South Dakota on Thursday, August 20, 2015I performed my first triathlon in this suit and it worked great for the race. After the race though I noticed it already had a hole in the leg seam where the stitching had come apart. It was only a $28 suit, so I can't complain for the amount of money I paid for it.
I plan on training for more triathlons so I will be investing in one that is better quality. -
1.0 out of 5 stars. Thin and cheapVerified Buyer Reviewed by Anonymous from North Carolina on Monday, June 22, 2015Ugh! The material of this entire suit is extremely thin - it's swimsuit material WITHOUT the usual liner layer. I wouldn't even step outside to get the mail in this suit, much less wear it in public at a triathlon. Returned it.

4.0 out of 5 stars. Love it!Reviewed by Jamie the Triathlete from North Carolina on Saturday, February 14, 2015As a 40DD gal, I needed something to fit me at the top. I wear a sports bra under it because no matter what kind of bra system a suit has, it's not keeping this under control!! I love this suit because it was great coverage and is fast in the water. I used it for an indoor swim at a triathlon and I was more than 5 seconds faster per 100. Even when I trained in it I was dropping time. My only issue is the leg elastic at the bottom is a little tighter than I would prefer. I will use this suit at Ironman 70.3 Raleigh!

2.0 out of 5 stars. not as expectedVerified Buyer Reviewed by Cj from Mitten State on Thursday, January 29, 2015This will be returned as it was too elastic and did nothing to hold/compress the muscles. It is not for women who have big breasts, but it seems as if this is the norm for a lot of women's athletic wear. I also suspect this was an earlier return as the packaging was in disarray and the suit just crumpled up.
