Women's Durafast Elite Diamondfit Swimsuit - Chlorine Resistant Fit

In this review of the Women's Durafast Elite Diamondfit Swimsuit the bottom line is simple: it is built for swimmers who need a no-nonsense, long-lasting training suit. The reviewer found the suit best for lap swimmers and swim team practice because its Durafast Elite fabric combines polyester strength with spandex comfort, delivering reliable shape retention and colorfastness even with heavy chlorine exposure. The suit's medium neckline, flexible straps and keyhole back provide secure coverage without restricting stroke mechanics, making it an easy recommendation for regular pool use.

Key Features

• Durafast Elite fabric: Provides exceptional chlorine resistance so the suit keeps its shape and color for months of frequent pool use.
• High denier poly fiber: Adds durability and tear resistance while maintaining a comfortable stretch for training sessions.
• Circular knit construction: Blends polyester strength with spandex comfort for a snug, supportive fit that does not weigh the swimmer down.
• UPF 50 protection: Shields skin from ultraviolet radiation during outdoor practices and reduces sun exposure risk.
• Lined for freshness: Internal lining helps control odor and extends the garment's usable life between washes.
• Moderate cut leg and keyhole back: Offer balanced coverage and freedom of movement for competitive and recreational swimmers alike.

Who It's For

The Diamondfit is aimed at swimmers who train regularly and need a suit that stands up to chlorine, repeated washes, and frequent use. It suits lap swimmers, masters swimmers, and swim team members who value durability, color retention, and a conservative cut that stays in place during freestyle and turn work.

Swimmers seeking fashion-forward cuts, very high-cut race suits, or softer, fully nylon suits for occasional pool sessions may prefer other styles. Also, if a customer needs a very loose fit for casual beach wear, this snug, performance-oriented one-piece may feel too fitted when dry.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Excellent chlorine resistance and color retention for long-term use.
• Durable construction that holds shape and provides consistent support during practices.
• Comfortable straps and keyhole back that allow a full range of motion.
• UPF 50 lining offers added sun protection for outdoor training.

Cons

• Sizing is reported as snug when dry, so some swimmers may need to size up for easier entry and comfort.
