If you swim competitively, choose from a variety of women's racing swimsuits. You'll want to keep fit and functionality in mind for both racing and training. DICK'S Sporting Goods offers racing and training suits that are durable, tight-fitting, and chlorine-resistant and reduce drag.
High performance technical swimsuits are ideal for competitions or long-distance swimming. These suits feature compression technology that helps maximize speed in the water by giving you a seamless, tight fit.
Choose a suit with the FINA-approved logo to ensure it meets the required rules and guidelines to take part in championship swimming.
Before purchasing a women's swimsuit, consider kind of activity you intend to do. You'll want to choose the right coverage, material and fit depending on the activity or sport.
Ideally, racing and training suits have a streamlined fit and a moderate to open back for maximum movement and comfort in the water. Chlorine-resistant fabric helps the suit withstand frequent use and prevents fading to keep the suit looking bright. When it comes time to compete, consider a technical swimsuit. These include both regular and knee-length compression suits that are specifically designed to provide optimal, customized fits and water-repellent, lightweight, drag-reducing fabric.
For more casual water sports, including water aerobics and surfing, choose flattering suits made from high-quality materials by brands such as Speedo, Reebok and TYR. Look for adjustable straps, built-in bras, bounce-resistant technology and UV protection.
