Speedo, the world’s top swim brand, comes out with the latest in swimwear innovation as it unveils their Spring/Summer 2016 collection featuring three sub-lines to suit each type of swimmer.
TEAM SPEEDO
Speedo brings together talents from all over the world: 24 athletes, 78 Olympic medals and 17 world records together in one room, to be exact. Ryan Lochte, Missy Franklin, James Guy, and Mireia Belmonte were among the 24 of the elite swimmerswho were present at the unveiling. Team Speedo introduces the 2016 incarnation of the iconic competitive suit, the highly anticipated Fastskin LZR Racer X.
Swimmers competing in 2016 will be wearing the Fastskin LZR Racer X suit, cap and goggles. The suit incorporates Speedo’s most advanced swimwear technology since the introduction of the new FINA guidelines in January 2010. Speedo’s world-renowned Aqualab technology manifests in the suit as it was developed based on data from extensive 3D scanning and simulations and in-depth feedback from swimmers, coaches, and swim experts around the globe. The result has exclusive new gold detailing and is engineered on look, feel, and speed to maximize performance and create the optimum hydrodynamic conditions for speed in the water.
David Robinson, OBE from Speedo, shares it’s fitting to have this number of athletes at the launch as “their invaluable feedback was intrinsic to creating a suit that not only is fast, but feels fast, and therefore empowers swimmers to swim faster.”
SPEEDO SCULPTURE
Speedo Sculpture acts as second skin as it controls, smoothes, and supports a woman’s body in all the right places. In creating the line, Speedo had analyzed the body shapes of more than 5,400 women and had used exclusive body-shaping fabrics and visual design techniques to enhance natural curves so wearers may feel comfortable in their swimwear.
Designers looked to patterns and details, as well as today’s trends, as tools in creating styles that could be used to streamline the silhouette. Their prints and patterns are used to enhance the female’s body form, while halterneck styles minimize your hips and the v-neck creates the illusion of a longer neck and torso and makes the body seem slimmer.
In the fabric, Speedo incorporates the Xtra Life Lycra fibre into the line. It lasts up to ten times longer than unprotected elastane so the suits fit and shape like new for longer. All suits are designed with clever visual detailing while material used enhances performance and feel.
SPEEDO FITNESS
The Speedo Swim Fitness collection continues to offer a wide range of functional and stylish swimwear for those who swim as part of their fitness regimen. The science behind the suits lies in the Pinnacle Kickback and Pinnacle V Jammer that’s been tested by swimmers with 81% of feedback attesting to improving their body position in water.
The PinnackleKickback one-piece suit for women also includes the 360 degree inner Power Mesh Aqua Bra and strategically placed internal compression panels that make the suit feel tighter so the swimmer may engage the core muscles and maintain horizontal streamlined position in the water. The Pinnacle Kickback features a mesh paneling on the front neck and straps for a sporty yet feminine design that also serves an important function.
