Prevail Sport

[arenaswimmer]

I'm thinking of getting a Prevail Sport swimsuit. The downside is that their swimsuits do not have a drawstring. Has anyone swum laps in their suits, or in suits without a drawstring?

I have used the Prevail Sport suits in the past and have swum laps in them without any unfortunate events. They hug the torso tight. I owned several styles with full to half back and modest pouch and enjoyed the feel and comfort they offer. Today though I have adopted Neptune Scepter suits as my go-to suit of choice for all water activity as they do have drawstrings and are sexy cuts.

Thanks for the feedback. How do the Prevail Sport suits compare to the athletic swim briefs (Speedo, Tyr, Nike etc.) when it comes to lap swimming?

I never had any problems with the suits, like slipping down or chafing, etc. They seem to hug the body tight and contain the package well. If your primary focus is lap swimming, i would lean you to Neptune Scepter just because they have a drawstring and they are low front, full seat and if your average size, the minimal pouch will give you comfort. They also have a Sale section in which they sell off out of print suits. The Polyester suits feel great and the nylon ones do too and may hold up longer in the lap pool.

So in your experience, the Prevail Sport suits are similar to Speedo, Tyr, etc. when it comes to swimming laps?

Thanks for the rec. I visited the Neptune Scepter site and it doesn't say if their suits have a drawstring. How does low front compare to high front in terms of lap swimming? And overall, how do the Neptune Scepter suits compare to the athletic swim briefs (Speedo, Tyr, etc.)?
