Onvous AquaGenesis Mens SwimSuit Jammer (30)

I have only swam in TYR Jammers. The Onvous jammers - felt thin in my hands and when I put them on out of the packaging. They look great and feel great - but after swimming in pool rinsing in fresh water after, lightly twist water out of jammers then air dry - after 4 months I started feeling them stretch...they now stretch past the top of my knee caps - before they were a good 2 to 1.5 inches above my knee. Going back to the TYR Jammers. I am 6ft 170 pounds w/ a 31in waist I purchased the 30".

Good length and the waist fits well but I have some larger legs and they are a little tight around the bottom of the leg.

Some other reviews state these jammers run small and are too tight/revealing. Because the material is light and stretchy, I can see why people think that. In fact, when I first put them on, it seemed like I might need to wear an athletic supporter or speedos underneath because these jammers don’t have a semi-detached front liner. These do have a double layer of fabric on the front panel, but because the material is so lean, it’s not really the equivalent of a separate liner. That being said, when the jammers are wet, the material does firm up a tiny bit, so I think they are fine without additional modesty support. Your mileage may vary.Back to sizing, I found these do not fit smaller than other major brands (Nike, Sporti, TYR, Speedo). I wear 28 or 29” jeans, and I normally wear a 30 in jammers. I ordered the same in the Onvous, and I feel like they are not as tight as other brands. Part of this is certainly the light/stretchy fabric, which makes these feel less compressive, but I had to tighten the waist band more than I do with other brands to keep them up during turns at the wall.Lastly, the stitching and overall workmanship generally seems good, but I did notice that the front panel (you know, the double layer of triangular fabric) seems to have a slight horizontal ripple of excess material on my pair. If I had ordered one size smaller, maybe that front fabric would stretch out more and there would be no ripple. But as it is, I’ll just live with this slight water drag; it’s not worth returning.

Great swim bottoms that allow for less resistance without the feeling of revealing too much for everyone to witness.
