Speedo event swimming trunks

In this category you'll find some of the best Speedo event swimming trunks, all aimed at improving your performance at competitions and events. This is because of their special and unique design, all aimed at reducing water resistance and making it easier for you to chase records. However, there are differences between the different models, so we'll tell you about their benefits.

Why Speedo event swimming trunks are different from regular swimming trunks

Most often, you will use a normal pair of swimming trunks for training, as they provide a good level of comfort while still fitting fairly well. They are made of nylon and polyester, which makes them good at keeping their fit and makes them chlorine resistant. Therefore, they often last for a very long time with the right care.

Speedo event swimming trunks - or Speedo jammers - on the other hand, are made of polyamide and elastane, which gives them their most important property - water repellent and elastic.

Their tight-fitting design gives them absolutely minimal water resistance, as they're designed to give you an extra layer of "skin" rather than an extra layer of fabric. This also means that - if you want to perform at your best - Speedo event swimming trunks should preferably be 3-4 sizes smaller than your normal swimming trunks. This results in better compression, less water resistance and higher speed in the water.

Therefore, we can only recommend that you take your time when putting on your Speedo event swimming trunks. As they need to be as tight as your skin, it can take 15-20 minutes to put on your Speedo competition swimming trunks.

Why Speedo event swimming trunks are so effective

Basically, there are 3 good reasons why a pair of Speedo event swimming trunks performs much better than a regular pair of swimming trunks.

The first is that they are water repellent, so they don't absorb water. This makes them much less heavy in the water and significantly reduces their water resistance. Basically, the lighter your Speedo event swimming trunks are in the water, the faster they are in the water.

The second reason is their high body compression (meaning the area from the hips down to the knees, unlike event swimsuits), which increases blood flow to the muscles, making lactic acid transport much more efficient. As a result, you don't burn out as quickly and can therefore perform much better - both on short and long distances.

The final reason is that there are no seams or stitching on a pair of Speedo event swimming trunks. They are turned inwards and glued together, and for good reason. Exposed seams and seams will create turbulence around them, which will increase water resistance. It may seem trivial, but it actually has a huge impact on your times.

It's all about making Speedo event swimming trunks as streamlined and fast as possible.

Use your Speedo event swimming trunks correctly

As Speedo and other event swimming trunks are highly specialised in their design, it's important to consider when to use which ones for what. Therefore, we would also recommend having 2-3 training swimming trunks and 1-2 event swimming trunks. But why is that?

Well, simply because event swimming trunks lose some of their properties with each use. This happens because the fibres in the fabric are stretched, which over time will reduce their performance.

For this reason, it's best to have one or more pairs of training swimming trunks so that you don't wear out your Speedo event swimming trunks.

Equipment makes the difference

For events, Speedo swimming trunks can make all the difference, but not without your skills and training. And if you're going for records, you'll need a good swim cap and a good pair of swimming goggles.

For training, you'll need a good, comfortable pullbouy and a quality swim board. Without the right training and equipment, top results will unfortunately not materialise
