Go to any open water swim around the world and it is easy to see that open water swimmers comes in all kinds of shapes and sizes.
So Speedo took that fact, did some homework and addressed the concerns of its female clientele.
Speedo recently introduced a range of swimwear designed by women to shape and smooth their bodies for maximum confidence in and out of the water.
The Speedo Sculpture range was created after the analysis of over 5,400 female body shapes to create swimsuits with the best combination of comfort and fit. Speedo also interviewed 1,200 women globally to help develop the collection. It found that 52% of women didn’t feel their best in their current swimwear, 76% said they would like swimwear that flatters their body shape and a further 63% said that feeling more confident in their swimsuit would encourage them to swim more.
