Kim and Kris
Kim and Kris who?
Sorry but have never heard of either of them. I try to avoid UK celebrity culture let alone those in the rest of the world. Over time elastic and Lycra lose their stretch, it is possible to unpick a suit and replace the elastic but it is a long slow job and never comes out like new. When Lycra fails the rear of the suit drops down to you knees, if the suit really means a lot to you putting in a back seam might help. It is not worth the effort of salvaging the elastic from a suit where the Lycra has failed.

Re. post#25
Swim.. seems to have been somewhat ignored.
No, I cannot point you to a supplier but nice suits. An enquiry to the American Swimming Association (or whatever is the controlling authority) may give you a lead to a manufacturer - but bear in mind these are often one-off jobs, custommade for a big event.

tracking down....
Me neither - gets very frustrating - just ask Louis how difficult it is to find the blue Adidas from Beijing 2008.
Agree should be more available - in contrast we have Team GB Adidas for 2012 Olympics readily available this time (if suppliers have not sold out that is)

To mail a small package within the UK last week cost me £2-70, to mail a package to USA from here cost £3-10, yet when I bought an Asian style suit from Shanghai it only cost £5 including postage. How can the Chinese do it, and how can we compete with prices like these?
It was a nice, brief, low cut and very tight suit by the way.

Good post Torchwatch. I might even say "erudite" - or - to quote from this thread again: ".....puts in a nutshell...."
film referred to was Carry On Clio (Julius Caesar)
Hybrid Mode
