Speedo Quality Decline

[Torchwatch]

It appears that the 2012 UK version of the Speedo Endurance had an 8 cm side while the 2013 suit has a 7 cm side.

Wonder what the side length of the Australian suit that was found to be unsatisfactory was.

The 7-8 cm (3") sides seem to be an American style, against the European style of 5 cm (2") side in a racing brief.

Personally I prefer the 5 cm style, but then I am am tall and long legged, so won't be buying Speedo Endurance this season.

Quality is slipping everywhere. I just sent back an Aussiebum that was so poorly made I would have been better off with a Chinese copy

Interestingly, the really high quality stuff is made by the Chinese. Check out the Aquox ans Seobean briefs if you don't believe me!
