OK, despite our huge collections, we all know we have them, one or two suits that are our favorites. What is the hottest or most favorite suit you have (or had) and what made it so....
I have two. My first is in college I had this Speedo brand brief that was white with a red and yellow stripe that ran along the top. It fit me great and I loved wearing it. The best part was it was thick enough and lined well enough that I could actually swim in it and it did not get sheer (ok, maybe a tiny bit, but not bad). After a while I stopped wearing it to the pool and only wore it to lakes or the beach to avoid the chlorine. I loved that suit.
My second was a black background suit with a awesome series of inset stripes that swept across the front. It had narrower sides, maybe two inches, and it fit me really well. I'd hang out in the Summer in that suit. It lasted for years. I accidently left it at a race several years back. I still get mad at myself thinking about how I just must have left it on the floor of the post race changing tent (triathlon). I hope it found a good home! It was my first suit with narrower sides... I since have some even more narrow, but you always remember your first...lol
