New Speedo Linear Motion & Summit square leg

[JamesSwim]

Speedo (USA) has new square leg suits called Linear Motion and Summit. They ar unusual since they have a snap and zipper in front. It's in their fitness swim category. They also started to sell a 1" Shoreline brief (with stripes on the side)

I like the linerar motion pattern, but wish the legs were a bit shorter. Looks more like a half leg jammer than a square cut. If you like square cuts, some cool ones at http://www.wayfunky.com I have several of their square cuts and briefs... they fit awesome and look cool.

btw, I am not in any way affiliated with Funky Trunks. I just like their stuff.

Love the Linear print but yes, too long and Funky seem to judge it better.

Speedo seem to have lost their way - is it in desperation to remain market leader?
Zip and snap button on a tight fit spoils the line and seems rather pointless - unless "fitness" implies dry-land workout wear and not for swimming.
(for the advertiser to say "brief" is another bit of confusing sales talk - just as journalists love to say "skimpy" even for a 6" side seam).

Promo. vid. here from AB - new to me - seems they want some wrestling singlets worn as swimwear now.

I have a N2N singlet for swimming-just be aware that your basket is very much in view to the extent that you can see if you are cut. Mine is all blue with N2N on one leg as a "cut out"in white. I like the green gold of the AB. Wore my Andrew Christian red briefs doing laps this morning-like nothing on-very comfortable but like the singlet your goods are apparent but no butt crack!
