Customer Reviews TYR Durafast Elite™ Solid Maxfit Swimsuit

I purchased this swimsuit to swim laps in my gym pool and I think it's great! I ordered a 34 (I just matched my bra size, honestly) and it fits really well (I'm 5'2", 130lbs). It's tight (not uncomfortable or anything), but I think it's designed that way because it's for swimming laps, not lounging about in a hot tub. There is plenty of booty coverage. The cut in the front is a little slim in terms of coverage, so I do have to re-adjust getting in and out of the pool, but that doesn't bother me. I highly recommend it if you want to look like a pro swimming laps!

This is a very nice suit, that is good quality. It just flattens the chest way too much. I cannot keep it for that reason.

I'm not a lap swimmer, just a fifties female who enjoys being active in the water and kayaking. I bought a TRY suit a few years ago. Initially I wondered if I would tear a ligament trying to get it on, but after a few wearings I loved it, just ordered another. As another reviewer commented, no need for underwire of shelf bra, no shifting cups to struggle with, does not ride up in the rear. This suit stays put. Nice material (unlike Speedo) and does not lose its shape. I'm 5'6, 129 lbs and 36B chest. I normally wear a size 6 or 8, ordered a 36 in this and it fits really well.

Very well made, durable swim suit. If it had not been for the fact that I am a "DD", I would not have had to return it. This is a tank specially made for smaller chests.

Well made, high quality, true to fit. I've worn this a few times to swim laps and it holds me in, (36DD) making me feel streamlined in the water and seems to hold it's shape well. The only thing I didn't count on is that being a 46 year old woman with a less than perfect bod, the back opening is not very flattering. When I turn around to see how it looks in the back, all I can focus on is that my back is squeezing out the opening! Inspiration to double my lap swimming workout I suppose. ;)

Great suit! Comfortable and easy to wear. Fabric offers firm support without underwire or inner shelf bra, which is a rarity. Highly recommended, especially for those who are more active in the water.

This is a great suit if you are a lap swimmer. I wear a 38 since I am broad through the chest; some reviews said the suit ran small but I did not have any problems. I bought this second one to replace one I bought almost 6 months ago. I thought it would wear out soon because I swim 4 times a week in a chlorinated pool. It has not worn out at all. I do wet the suit down with fresh water before swimming but I have to say I never expected any suit to last as long as thing one has. It's a great product for a lap swimmer and totally worth the price since you don't have to buy a new one every 2 months like I was with my previous Speedo suits.

Great basic athletic swimsuit that fits perfectly and comfortably without riding up.

I love this suit! The fit is great and flattering. I wish there were more color choices.

This is a decent swimsuit, - great for swimming and being active. It is a little bit difficult to pull it on, but I like the snug fit, without feeling too tight. I am a small person, 5' 3" and 104 pounds, and I sized up because of my long torso. The 34 fit perfectly. I wish it came in some more interesting colors, but it is a high quality suit.

There is always something wrong with a one piece...I have used this for lap swimming 3 different times now. So good--I cannot find anything wrong with it! The straps are wide enough that they don't dig. The leg is a little french cut so its a flattering look. The rear does not slide around at all. The fabric is a little different than conventional swimwear material--it's not a problem for me, but is something a buyer should be aware of. I am really pleased with this suit and as long as it wears well, I am likely to purchase again in other colors.

I am not a swimmer, but I just joined a fitness center and would like to have the option to swim laps or use the sauna/steam room without wearing my regular bikini. After reading the reviews, I decided to size up and am happy with the fit! I'm 5'7" and 145 lbs 36C chest. I ordered the 38 to accommodate my long torso and it fits great. The cut in the front crotch is a little higher than I'd prefer, but it's nothing outrageous. The fit is tight, but in a good way that makes me feel like things aren't going to move around. Overall I'm happy w the purchase!

Excellent product. Good price. Zappos has excellent costumer service

I am a big busted woman and always have had to worry about the side boob peek through. Not anymore!

Great suit for class. I ordered the 34/27 and it fits perfectly. It stays in place for freestyle swimming and washes well.

LOVE this suit! Very flattering and feels supportive and great!

Very comfortable & great color - excellent quality swimsuit.

This is the perfect tank suit. It retains its shape after months of heavy use and is actually flattering. I am 5'7", 125 pounds and order d a size 36. Perfect.

This is an excellent quality suit that flatters the wearer. It provides good coverage with the double layer of fabric. What else do you need to swim laps? I can't yet comment on durability as I've only used it a few times.

Great suit but I needed to size up. I ordered the 34, what I would wear according to the sizing and it was actually "okay" except that I'm a bit long waisted and I found the straps kind of dug into my shoulders more than what I would like. The 36 fits okay, not snug, is great in the water and so far, so good. I remember sizing up for a swim top from Tyr last year as well. But...I've always like the quality of Tyr suits.

Very nice suit. I am 5'6" 130 lbs 34b/32c cup long torso. I took a size 36. I liked the fit; however, I think I am opting for the TYR Reversible Dimondfit suit over this one. It is just more flattering on me, but I did like this suit.

I love this swimsuit! It is made of thick material unlike my previous Speedos. I am in the pool at least 2-3 a week. It has been holding up well. I also have not using the machine to wring it out. Towel dry only. TYR is my new favorite.

The swimsuit fit snugly, which would probably work well for avid swimmers.
