I bought this suit to wear to an aqua aerobics class & for swimming laps at my gym pool and it works perfectly for both of them. I measured myself before ordering and fell between two sizes, I chose the larger size as bathing suits tend to run small, and the suit fits well when dry but does loosen up after getting in the water. If you are debating between 2 sizes I'd recommend going with the smaller size on this suit!

I bought this suit to wear to waterwork out class. I was originally very pleased with it, but last night I noticed it was no longer blue...all the color washed out and it is now brown. :( After each workout I put my suit in the washer for a rinse cycle and my past suits have lasted many years. This suit faded after just a couple months. Also - the other reviewer is correct...this suit does run a bit large.
I'm swimming every day to lose weight. First suit this design in Black was worn for three months, no fading, held up well. Bought second same design, black, a size smaller and after one month of use it has lost all the black and looks silver, lining and outside of suit. It also has runs in the fabric on front. From day one the suit was dripping color off in the water. I love this suit but afraid to buy another. Tried the Endurance but it fits tighter and is not comfortable. Fading is my only complaint on this suit, otherwise love it. If not for Speedo Plus Sized suites I would not be losing weight!

Comments about SPEEDO Women's Pool Slide:
BEWARE - I like a lot of things about this suit - but it is TOO LOW CUT for lap swimming if you are large chested. As it gets wet it drops, and here comes the cleavage. I would happily wear it at the beach and for playing in the waves - but I am disappointed that it is much lower cut then appears in the photos, or even when you first try it on.
A couple of years ago I bought a Speedo and when it didn't last 4 months, I said I wouldn't buy another. I needed a suit quickly so I ordered this one, wore it 5 times, and the navy is now a faded purple, but navy on the inside. I called customer service and they told me it was 5 days beyond the 90 day return. I'm really surprised they wouldn't stand behind their product.I don't know what's happened to Speedo...I was wearing them in the 60's and the suits would last a few years!
Haven't wore this enough to come up with any cons about it, but I love the look and fit. As a larger sized person, it fits great and has support that makes swimming for fitness a pleasure.
This suit came along with me on our week-long trip to Rhode Island. It dried quickly and I always had a dry suit to wear (even on two beach trip days). It also didn't seem to stretch out after daily hangs on the drying line.
I didn't care for the leg cut, but this was a good suit. It fit well. As a big busted women I want to make sure I can be active in my suit without support. I was nice to go on a zip line, swim in a cave, play beach v-ball, and boat comfortably.
This is a great swim suite for my swim fitness class. swimming laps and water jogging. I did order one size smaller as mentioned in a previous review and I am glad that I did. I have been using the suite 3 times a week and the color, texture, and fit is still in great shape.

I use this suit to do laps at the gym. Overall it is comfortable and the price was reasonable. The size chart led me to believe I would get a good fit; however, it is too large noting that the piping folds over at the neckline after I get in the pool.
