A swimmer recommended these to me to help stay buoyant while learning to swim. However, they appear to be built for very tall, very thin athletes with very small reproductive organs Like seriously, there is no crotch room at all.Bear in mind that I don't recall if the 1st pair was premium and the 2nd original, or the other way around.Anyway, the first pair I bought came folded in a weird way, in an open plastic bag, with no tags or labels anywhere. The stitches were incomplete in some places. It looked like it was either a return sold as new, or just a bad product with poor quality control. Plus, it didn't even fit well - the waist was almost made for a child, while the legs were just the right length.After returning it, I got a second pair, which had a bigger waist, but the legs were also super long, almost to the knee. This too had a tight crotch area, poor stitching, and there were no tags or labels anywhere either. I decided to keep it. The buoyancy part worked, and it worked well. It did help give just enough of a boost to stay afloat more easily and focus on learning technique. But honestly, I felt kind of embarrassed using it, because my manhood really stuck out, and the extra leg length made me seem dwarf-like. Unfortunately at that point I had already used it so I couldn't return it.So would I recommend this? Nope. Well, not unless you are really thin, with like 5% body fat or less, and NBA basketball player tall. In my case, not only did I hate the product, but the product even made me hate myself.Not recommended.
