Hi,
Has anyone bought the Team Great Britain speedos that are on the website? If so how are they?

Interesting. The link sent me to Team USA's merchandise page. Must have been able to tell that I am in USA and automatically sent me there. No links that I could see to send me then to Team Great Britain's site. And naturally, no speedos being sold on the Team USA site.

Definitely looks like US internet users get routed to the USA site. Our corporate office is in Canada & our internet connection is in Canada. From there, went right to the UK site.

Unfortunately, all they have left are XXL's.

Only XXL's left on that site. You can get them from JJB Sports too, apparantly. I think I might get a pair! Hope many athletes wear these too instead of jammers.

I bought some of these from JJB too but there were not many left and I found the fit quite unusual - like they needed to be worn quite high.

I just checked in on my order and they said Adidas is supplying the store with more but they are unsure when they will be in.

Thanks BW! I'll have to email them to see if they deliver to North America. I really like the suit. I want to wear it for a swim at the aquatic center in Fort Lauderdale.

I found these on Team USA website... http://shop.usaswimming.org/Olympics_US ... wim_Briefs

Also Swimoutlet has a few team usa items. I really like the jammers that they have right now... but not for $50+

Thanks guys, these were a 30" and compared to other adidas ones I have they are slightly bigger but somehow with less coverage at the front and back! For this reason i'd prefer a size down but I don't think they come smaller than 30".

Hey thanks for the info! You're right. The smallest size is 30, at least the last time i checked.
