It looks like Speedo racers are still the norm. :D

If that's what Finis are selling, yes - but might we see jammers here if Speedo was making this promotion?

Finis sells jammers too but I believe both Speedo and Finis will sell more racers for the range of motion the racer gives the swimmer.

...........which rather contradicts the heavy promotion by Speedo of LZR body suits not so long ago and the eagerness of competitive swimmers to adopt them to clip fractions of a second off their best times.

Since the bodysuits can't be used in competitive swimming Speedo has to spend their advertising money promoting something. I believe Speedo will promote their racer suits for the range of motion.

good point....
 

.....I'm going to ask them

In any athletic activity, less coverage provides more freedom of movement and tech suits and jammers are nothing but restrictive.

Regardless of the stigma about wearing speedos and short shorts, for the sake of comfort the "long look" can't go away fast enough.
