What's the lifespan of Speedo's FS-PRO Legskin & Jammer?

Question

I'm considering purchasing either one of these but really can't justify the cost if they're only going to last for like 5 meets.

Answer 1

the FS-PRO legskin and jammer are suppose to last for about 20 races....which i would say would give you two or three meets

Answer 2

they are better than FS2's but i only wear my fast skins for 4 meets a year and get a new one after 2 meets.  after useing them for about 2 meets they are no longer as tight as they should be to benefit you at all.

the new blueseventy suits are suposed to be faster than the speedo lzr's, they are cheaper, and last a whole bunch longer! i got one for sectionals, THEY ARE AWESOME!

Answer 3

suts last for a while. just make sure you wash it out wih cold water and let it drip dry and it depends how often you ware it. I only wear race sutes like 6-8 times. they loose their tightness and then they become practice sutes that last like 8-10 months before they compleatly fall apart so ya.

Answer 4

I think they should last for a while, as long as you don't practice in it.  Why don't you just ask some guy that works at the place that you are thinking of getting them from.  My suits usually last like half a year plus swim meets

Answer 5

FS-Pros have pretty good durability.  My friend Austin competed in 10+ meets [[which in USA last 2-4 days]] and his FS-Pro isnt even worn out yet!  

I say go for it! and have fun with your awesome new suit =]

Answer 6

unless you are on a reasonably high level of competition, they are probably not worth their cost. i would say they last about 5-12 meets if you don't warm up or practice in them.

Answer 7

it will last you awhile, it doesnt have as much life as the speedo FS 2 but i love the suit.

since it is a 'racing suit' i dont wear it for all of my races. for example at a prelim/final swim meet i only wear it at finals or if its not a prelim/ final swim meet then i only wear it for my best events. like the 100 back or 200 back.

goodluck!
