Great, durable
Very comfortable. The fabric is the best part. It isn’t like standard swimsuit material where the spandex can disintegrate over time. It’s stretchy without being overly thick. I’m curvy and it does a great job smoothing out my trouble sections.

Great quality suit
I am a former lifeguard who spent MANY hours a day wearing a swimsuit. Arena has always been one of my favorite brands (my swim bag and goggles are Arena) so I was very excited to try this suit. I will start by saying that I am taller (5'9) and have gained weight since my swimming days. I also unfortunately carry most of my weight in my stomach, which makes it difficult to find one piece suits that fit.This suit is a little small for me right now, but I could absolutely see this being one of my favorites once I lose a few pounds. I appreciate the full coverage bottom (so many suits look like they are giving wedgies these days!). I also appreciate the thin straps as I prefer that to max back styles. The color combination is unique and fun, perfect for summer. Non-swimmers may not recognize this brand, but I can assure you that this is a quality suit that is built to last. Hopefully my pictures help give a realistic picture of what this suit looks like on a non-athletic body!

Good quality training suit
I swim laps most every day, usually for 75 minutes lately. This is my first ever Arena suit - it compares well to my usual TYR suits.The fit is listed as a ‘super free back’ and seems somewhat similar to a TYR ‘diamond fit’.I've been mostly wearing a ‘max fit’ - which has wider straps and a bit more coverage on the bottom.According to the size chart I’m somewhere between a 30 and 32 - the 30 fit nicely in this style so I’m glad I didn’t size up, as these kind of suits usually stretch out with use and I wear them until they are stretched out beyond usefulness!I’m about the same size in other brands and whether I’m 30 or 32 can depend on the style - it all comes down to becoming familiar with a brand’s fit in each style.Gave this suit a workout this morning and I enjoyed the thinner strap style - it’s less constrictive for range of motion than a wider strap style, but I’d prefer a bit more coverage at the neckline to avoid any cleavage at all showing when out of the water - so this wouldn’t be my style choice for an outdoor pool or beach trip. That’s just a personal preference- those with less to cover at the bust area may not find this an issue at all.The photo of the model shown is a great indicator of fit for the style of coverage on the bottom - it’s not super modest - (doesn’t cover the whole bum) - but provides good range of motion.The orange is much more vibrant after the suit is wet - which I really like - and the suit is fully lined so no worries there!I also really like that the label snips off easily - so the label isn’t an ongoing annoyance.The fabric is listed as having at least 50% recycled content - good on that - and it’s labeled as chlorine resistant. This is the most interesting feature to me after fit - because switching to chlorine resistant fabrics has made a huge difference in the life of my suits - they are definitely worth the extra cost when swimming laps every day.I have high hopes for the durability of this suit… time will tell…!

Solid and long-lasting training suit
My daughter is a competitive swimmer and needs training suits that fit well and can handle long hours in the pool and frequent changes. Arena has never disappointed us and this one is no different. Fit is tighter than a regular suit, which is normal. The colors and design are very nice too. Absolutely worth the price.

Great suit!
I haven't been in the pool for years, and this was a great suit to get back into the water with. I am not confident with my body, and I liked the higher back than other suits offer. It is lightweight and works well in the pool. I don't have any issues with the suit itself. It did surprise me a little that it didn't have a liner inside, but that was a bonus for me as they always stretch out bigger than the suit anyways.

Sizing runs small - size up!
I ordered this for my daughter who swims on a competitive swim team. This size 26 is way too small! I ordered it according to the listed size chart. She wears a size 10/12 in kids clothing, and a size 0 or XS in women's clothing. So according to this size chart, she would fit a 26, but it was way too small. The size 30 is actually what fits her! I'd say the size 26 would fit a size 7/8 in kids clothing. Other than the sizing issue, the suit is very cute and has an athletic design which is great for competitive swim.
