Why Choose Polyester?

With so many different fabrics on the market, which do you choose? There is Lycra, Spandex, Polyester, etc! Plus you can find different blends of fabrics, which may add to the confusion. Each may offer different benefits, but you definitely need to check out polyester! 

Suits that are made from 100% polyester or a poly/PBT blend typically last much longer than other suits made from other fabrics. This is perfect for swimmers who are in the pool day-in and day-out. If you like your suits to have a little stretch to them, you can always find a Poly/Spandex or Poly/Lycra blend as well! The TYR Durafast Elite Asteroid Diamondfit is a popular choice with the Poly/Spandex blend!

Once you begin shopping, you will find that suits made from polyester are a bit more expensive than nylon and/or spandex suits. What you may not realize is that polyester suits won’t be damaged from chlorine like traditional suits do. Chlorine can not only damage the elasticity, but also the color of the suit. In the long run, you will actually end up saving money by buying Polyester suits.
