Maybe he just found it more 'exciting' to wear!Latestarter wrote: ↑Sat Mar 07, 2020 11:04 amIs it just me or does that blue and yellow speedo resolve give the model a much more pronounced vpl than any of the other suits?
Maybe but it doesn’t otherwise appear to be the most exciting design!Scottiebum wrote: ↑Sat Mar 07, 2020 2:51 pmMaybe he just found it more 'exciting' to wear!Latestarter wrote: ↑Sat Mar 07, 2020 11:04 amIs it just me or does that blue and yellow speedo resolve give the model a much more pronounced vpl than any of the other suits?
Had to go searching for the resolve. It didn't just pop out to me. Found it toward the bottom and now that you mention it there's a bit of a contour/shadow going on ...Latestarter wrote: ↑Sat Mar 07, 2020 11:04 amIs it just me or does that blue and yellow speedo resolve give the model a much more pronounced vpl than any of the other suits?
Yup, looks fantastic on the model. Especially the arse.landoffrozensheep wrote: ↑Sat Mar 07, 2020 5:43 pmI really like the grey horiz stripe

It's about time they had more colour. But, then again, people who sit by pools in their latest flashy purchase might not be their core market. (Versus people who actually swim laps in pools and worry about utility)....:::sam:::... wrote: ↑Sat Mar 07, 2020 6:42 amI'm sure Speedo is a big ship to steer, but they really have been found lacking with the smaller and the more boutique companies developing better cuts, better designs and who have better community engagement. It would be interesting to see what type of market share Speedo have had over the years and what they are now. Incredible when the entire market is generically known by their brand name. Hopefully they innovate rather than continue following, banana designs were done a long time ago.
True, I don't really see a large proportion of lap swimmers or competitive swimmers that wear Speedo either, but thats not to say they arent still a player in the speedo market.blueflinch wrote: ↑Sun Mar 08, 2020 9:41 pmIt's about time they had more colour.

Yeah, I can see that now. Pretty cool! I'd love a pair of these.

LOLAre they wearing speedos, but not Speedo-brand speedos? I have always found Speedo-brand speedos a bit weird, fabric-wise. Not very stretchy. Stiffer than other suits. Perhaps that puts other people off as well?...:::sam:::... wrote: ↑Mon Mar 09, 2020 4:53 amTrue, I don't really see a large proportion of lap swimmers or competitive swimmers that wear Speedo either, but thats not to say they arent still a player in the speedo market.
Yeap thats right, oldies are more likely to have speedo brand speedos, but other than that most are wearing other brands like Arena, TYR maybe Finis for high end suits and also funky trunks, budgy smuggler and Yingfa for the girls. In the towns, the shops probably influence what people wear a fair bit too.blueflinch wrote: ↑Thu Mar 12, 2020 6:57 amAre they wearing speedos, but not Speedo-brand speedos?

Yup, speedo endurance fabric is ghastly. It's not the silky-smooth speedo feel one grows up with, and associates with the beloved brief-style swimwear. What were they thinking?...:::sam:::... wrote: ↑Fri Mar 13, 2020 5:14 amI don't like the speedo endurance material either. Its comfort and fit aren't all that good for me.
Has anyone tried the endurance10? Endurance and Endurance+ were damned awful, no real stretch and felt....urgh against the skinblueflinch wrote: ↑Fri Mar 13, 2020 2:39 pmYup, speedo endurance fabric is ghastly.
