comfy suit that's all business for women of a certain age, February 8,

Great for lap swimming. Has a nice lining that keeps one from getting "head lights" in a cool pool; leg openings are not
Brazilian style.

Does the job well, October 15, 2008

This is a very sturdy suit.
I got it to wear for lap swimming.
It is not fashionable, but I was not looking for that.
It holds in all the right places and is comfortable to wear.
It runs slightly small, so I would order the bigger size than what you wear in normal clothes.
It has great bust support, even though it does not have a shelf bra, which I thought I would miss.
There is nothing to tug at, slide down or crawl up.
It is a great suit that does the job of a normal lap swimsuit very well.

Size/cut off for those not familiar with Speedo, January 19, 2009

This review is from: Speedo Aquatic Xtra Life Lycra Conservative Ultraback Swimsuit (Apparel)]
I have become a size 10 and am wishing to get back to an 8 (read: still wearing many of my size 8 pants, etc).
However, when I got my size 10 of this suit, the leg holes were so small they really squeezed my legs (and my legs aren't abnormally
large), and the whole suit was just TOO small.
I went to a sporting goods store after to try sizes and the 12 was correct, with no extra room to spare.
Also, for those unfamiliar with the Speedo leg cuts, this 'conservative' cut is REALLY low.
I mean, when you put it on it really appears almost perfectly straight across - even with your crotch - not scooped up a bit as it
appears in the photos.
Again, at the actual store trying Speedos on, I discovered that their highest 'contemporary' cut is actually still pretty moderate, i.e.,
my bikini underwear were completely covered up and then some when I was trying on these suits over them.
In the end, the suit quality feels great so I still plan to buy Speedo but sizing and cut is not as one might expect.
