Swimsuit does not fit well

I have worn this model of swim suit for years. This year's version is cut differently. The legs are narrower and are too tight. The lining is also cheaper than in previous years. I wish Speedo would bring back the old suits - they were better.
I swim three times a week. Other products such as the shoreline are better fit and do not fade nearly as quickly. Also the cut is different in the picture as opposed to how it looks when hanging, which makes it look like it is not a squarecut.
The waist was true to size, but the legs did not stretch to the size of my legs. It felt like somebody tied a rope tightly around my legs. It looks like i'm going back to regular jammers.
I swim pretty much everyday. So I have a few of these in different colors. Right when I was ready to order the red ones you stopped making them. I always wondered why. Did they not sale well. I am a pretty large guy. Swimming has helped immensely in losing weight and helping to keep pressure off my joints. I have arthritis in my hips and lower back.

Comments about SPEEDO Nylon Striped Square Leg:
The suit is great except for the fact that it went from blue to a strange purple gray after less than a dozen times in the pool. I am an older man and I appreciate the added coverage of the suit. You used to offer a suit that came down even a little longer on the thighs. I couldn't find that style so I purchased this one instead. The suit is well made but I am disappointed that the color looks so bad so soon.

Comments about SPEEDO Nylon Striped Square Leg:
I'm a big guy at 5'11" and 265lbs and bought this suit because I wanted a tank suit that would fit me for when I do laps in the pool at the gym. I was taking some personal training with an instructor to improve my technique and endurance. Today's long legged suits feel heavy, binding and drag. I bought some speedo surf runners and they were much better, but when swimming for 30-60 mins, they to feel binding. Not one to wear a low rise tank brief because of my weight and build, this fuller square legged suit fits the ticket. total freedom to swim and dosen't look ridiculous on me, it kind of looks good on me ( well I think so) although I would feel less ....conspicuous if it had a front pouch liner. But hey...what the heck.. I'll buy another soon.

Fits great but something should be done about the dying process on the fabric. I cannot get the dark blue trunks to last color for more than six months of lap swimming. They fade to grey (base color?)
I've owned several of nylon square leg suits over several years of swimming. I swim almost everyday, year round and have found these to be durable, comfortable and simply great for lap swimming and training.
