Kanu SurfMen's Competition Jammers Swim Suit

A good, basic suit for workout, but the drawstring is thin and slippery and difficult to keep tied, more a ribbon than drawstring. I wound up buying a long shoelace and replacing it, so add $2.50 to the cost.

Drawstring could be thicker

This is my first Jammer Swim Suit and the fit is pretty good. My only two complaints are that the back tends to slide down a bit and probably most important the tie string is very cheap and flimsy and I could see it breaking soon. But, it has been pretty good first attempt and the price was very good.

I like them a lot, but it’s just hard because they fit a wee bit small, I’m a 32 waist and should’ve gotten a 34

This is a GREAT training suit, but I wouldn't compete in it. This is actually the 4th Kanu jammer I have purchased. I bought one from Amazon back in January, started wearing it in February, and it has lasted until late August. There is little if any fading, and the drawstrings, while pretty thin, have held up.I swim 2x per week, 1.5 miles per swim, indoor pool. After every swim, I rinse off in the shower, suit on, and then prior to drying, rinse each suit 2x in the sink.The previous reviews indicated there might be an issue with transparency with this suit. As I stated above, it is a great training suit, so double it up, and you won't have to worry about transparency. Along those lines, the fit is good in the legs and butt, however, the waistline loosens up. Again, after swimming in this suit for 6 months, it is not going to fall apart, but the waistline does allow for a good amount of drag, hence my title for this review, GREAT FOR TRAINING, BUT... I mean, training is supposed to be tough, right? So, double suit up for more drag, and these suits, since they don't fit supper tight like the Ispeeds, Nikes, or Speedos, give you extra drag.Pros: one of the most durable suits I have ever (15+ years of swimming/water polo) encountered. No fading, no transparency, takes a long time to fall apart.Cons: not the best fitting, would not compete at all in this suit!!Update: Dec 2015: I have purchased a total of 6 of these suits and stand by my previous statements.

I was shopping for a less expensive alternative to Speedo Jammers I usually wear. The Kanu Surf Jammer's fit my needs.Some hesitations/questions I had before I purchased them--(1) I never heard of the Kanu Surf brand; (2) the lululemon see-through issue that others reviews wrote about. I will address both of them below.I normally wear speedo brand jammers and this review will compare speedo to kanu jammers. the material for the kanu, in my opinion, seem thinner and more see through than my speedo jammers. I bought a black set. when I swam this morning, I did not have any issues with see-through for this color. but be aware--per the other reviews--it maybe an issue for different colors.also, I normally wear size 36 jammers for speedo brand jammers. I bought size 36 for kanu jammers--however they were too big--I returned them using amazon's return procedures without any problem. so if you normally use speedo jammers--you may want to consider buying a smaller size.the fit was pretty solid. I swam about 1400 meters this morning before work and the jammers were snug and comfortable. when I got back to the locker room (it was dark outside for a 6 am swim) I looked in the well lighted men's room and the jammers looked just like my speedos-i.e., no see-through issue at all.I gave it four stars because the jammers appear and perform as advertised. I did not give it a full five stars because I do not yet know how long it will last or how quickly the material will degrade. But the jammers are solid option to speedos, fit as advertised, and seem well made.

Just ordered my 4th set of these since 2015 and was disappointed to find the design has changed. From 2015 to Jan 2020 they were the same single layer design. The ones I just received are dual layer in the crotch with a lot of compression built in. Not a fan.

I got this for my swimmer as the team suit was having "supply chain issues" -- we needed something before the first meet. It's a good basic suit and will become the practice suit.Pros:- standard jammer swimsuit, self explanatory- drawstring to secure at waistCons:- ?We'll see how many seasons it lasts -- I'm confident it will last for one summer swim team season though.

Fits well but the tie string is so cheap with unfinished edges it started fraying on day one. I burnt the edges to seal it, but the material knots terribly. The suit itself is good, but that string makes it not-so-great.

Fit is as expected and are holding up well to 2 months of use (2-3 times per week) The drawstring is fairly cheap and has already fallen out.The leg cuffs are also a bit on the tight side and I might order a size up for my next pair.

I have purchased two of these suits. After using the first one about 20 times, I noted that it was now 4 inches longer than the new one. The snug fit, which I wanted was gone. The drawstring is way too short and frays badly almost instantly - melt the ends to seal them. For the price it meets my needs for workouts. A new one would do the trick for competition.

This suit seemed great a first--fit well. But by no more than a dozen swims it was ball-y, thinning, baggy, and ready for the garbage

A great pair of jammers. I like the way the leg cuffs stay tight. I have three pairs and swim every day. A great product for the price. They have stood up a lot better the the more expensive Nike jammers I bought. I ordered the large size at first. But returned then for my current waist size
