Diamondback Solid Female

I bought this because of the gorgeous burgundy color. I am 5'3", 108 pounds, 32A and the size 32 fits perfectly. The suit feels great and is lined in black, front and back. I have been wearing a black Speedo lap suit in the Endurance polyester fabric. That suit has indeed stood up extremely well (the pool I swim laps in four or five times a week has a fairly low level of chlorine and I am careful to wash out the suit after every swim). But the Speedo suit is a little difficult to put on as there is not that much stretch. It feels OK especially when wet but is not as comfy as nylon. And I am noticing that the tush area is getting pretty pilled just from briefly hoisting myself out of the pool. I have not sat around in the suit at all. So while the Endurance fabric does stand up to the water like nothing I have ever seen before, the suit might still not have that much longer a life. Given this experience I decided to allow myself to have this nylon/lycra suit. The TYR suit is so much easier to get on. The styling is fine. The legs are a little bit lower cut than the Speedo. I will take good care of it, as I have done with the Speedo and just enjoy it.

*** Update: 5 years later I still buy this suit when it's time to replace. Still very happy with it! *** I've been a fitness swimmer (3-5 times a week) for 20 years and gone through many swimsuits over the years, all brands. They tend to last an average of 6 months, some a little longer, some just barely. Fit is what I am most concerned about, I've been through any variation here - some are too tight, but still usable; some fit but get loose very quickly; almost all ride up a bit in the back, have too high of a leg cut, or are prone to side spills on top. I kinda know what worked for me and try to hunt down the same suits (Arena, Tyr - Maxbacks); this time I came up empty. I was never fond of the thinner straps of the Diamondback as far as looks go, and questioned their ability to hold up over time, but I see just about everyone else wearing these at my pool, and based on the good reviews this suit has been getting, I ordered one, and it is fantastic: 1. It fits true to size, snug, but not to the point where it's super difficult to put on. I ordered size 36, I am 5'8", 130 lbs, 36A. 2. I actually love the thinner straps - they feel really secure, and look a bit more feminine than the Maxback. 3. Flattering fit. It's still a functional workout suit (not to be confused with a cute poolside outfit), but it has a nice fit (I had to return the Tyr Durafast Maxback which compressed me into a square - very unflattering) 4. It is lined throughout. I rarely, if ever, had a suit that was also lined on the backside, which is usually what thins out first and the main reason I have to replace the suit. Finding it fully lined was a pleasant surprise. The liner is black for the black suit - not tan. I only had it one week, so I cannot attest to its durability, but it being Tyr, I don't expect anything less than 6 months. I will definitely replace it with the same one when the time comes. I hope they keep making it!

This is my second TYR suit, they hold up very well to lots of pool swimming and are flattering. The blue is a gorgeous color. Sizing absolutely runs small. I sized up and am glad I did so.

Great fit and LOVE this bright blue color. It fits as expected - not too tight or hard to get on, hugs all the right places, holds everything together, and gives a nice smooth, supportive appearance. I ordered a 38 - 5'6, 34B/C and 142 lbs. I am super happy to have this for my aqua fitness classes. Just need to find another color/pattern or two.

An immediate classic, I fell in love with this suit's comfort, simple yet flattering design, and sturdy construction. I feel faster just wearing it. The design is especially flattering in the leg where a seam from behind meets the front at the apex of the leg creating a long and lean look. I like the range of movement allowed by the open back - no pulling or tugging the suit into place. I'm tall - 5'10" - and an athletic 150lb. I bought the suit in size 38 and found to my surprise that it's long enough in the torso for me. Cannot recommend this suit highly enough. I'd like to stock up while they're still available.

Ordered 3 different swim suits, went to numerous stores- found this and fit is great, quality is great and price is great. Bought size 34- I’m 5’7” and about 130 give it take depending on the day. I have larger shoulders due to gymnastics and swimming so the straps are just a touch tight but I’ll take it because overall quality is good! Just enough stretch without being “stretchy” and holds me in- unlike so many suits now that feel loose and light in weight.

Great fit, strong and quality fabric expected from TYR. My daughters go to swimsuit for competitive swimming. The only drawback is it faded within two weeks

I am a 5'2'', 135 pounds short latina I got myself a size M (32) and it fits pretty well. I love the soft double layer fabric. Great for swimming practice. My first Tyr and definitely not my last. Even though the color seems clear, it covers perfectly well.

I have purchased this style/brand before and it's great for just doing laps in the pool (I swim 5 days a week). My previous one started to discolour after about a year even though I washed it after every swim. This suit is good, but I have a long torso so I have to size up (and sometime it is 2 times up) because the length is 80% of the time much shorter than what the size chart indicates. No matter what the description says all tank suits will discolour and loose the elasticity in the materials. I find it surprising that the liner does not which I find odd. My order came as promised and not damaged in shipping. Also the price is great as I have found other retailers charge a lot more!

Nice stretchy light fabric - not too stiff and heavy like some of the chlorine resistant fabrics. Flattering fit.

When you find that perfect piece of clothing or shoe, the smart thing to do is buy a bunch in every colour so you never run out! That's what I've done with this swimsuit. It fits comfortably and lasts longer than other brands (I always come back to Tyr for durability). I use it in all kinds of different water... sea, heavily chlorinated pools, lakes... and it still holds up well. I'm 5'9" and usually wear size 14-16 clothing. The size 42 swimsuit fits perfectly. Freedom in range of motion, doesn't feel tight on the shoulders or back. Highly recommend!

Fits well and really comfortable
