99% of the guys you see competing in knee-length tech suits on TV train and compete the rest of the year in brief-style suits. The televised meets tend to be important, though, so they pull out the expensive tech suit for those ones.
I guarantee that modesty is not a concern for them; they spend a massive chunk of their lives in briefs already. Go ahead a look up the various youtube channels or instagram pages of Olympic-calibre swimmers.
