I posted this on my FB page and thought I'd check in here are well.

I need a good suit, suitable for a busty-type lady that needs a bit of support, for lane swims. What's out there in athletic suits that has bust support? I can't seem to find anything.

(Also - Hi. It's been a long time since I've been here!)

Have you looked at Team Aquatic or Swim 2000 (both on-line)? My girls are competitive swimmers & I buy most of their suits from Team Aquatic.

Good luck & enjoy the swimming!

PS. I see that you're from NB. If you're close to Saint John, there's a meet the 27 - 29 at the Aquatic Centre. There's usually a shop set up w/ suits etc - prices are always good.

I manage perfectly well with a Speedo. Although it may not support you while walking around or standing on deck, you don't really need "support" while your're swimming!

That's true. I find for me it's an ego issue. If I'm self conscious (even more than just being in a suit would make me) then I'm probably not going to go to the pool.

I just saw this. I am chesty and I have found some Speedo or Tyr ones with some support. Polyester holds up better to the chlorine as well vs the usual spandex kind.

I also just saw this. I wear a Tyr that compresses the heck out of my chest. Works great :)
