Criteria for the right sports swimsuit
A sports swimsuit that optimally supports you during training and competition should meet certain criteria that you should pay attention to when buying. Numerous requirements such as an open back, sporty cut or thin straps help us at Jaze to make the swimsuit fashionable without compromising on the fit. At Jaze, performance and fashionable design go hand in hand. That's why our goal is to offer you swimwear that is not only functional and comfortable, but also aesthetically pleasing. Whether you're an ambitious swimmer preparing for competition or just someone who wants to get the most out of themselves during training, our swimsuits are designed to give you the support you need. In addition, we are aware that a well-fitting swimsuit increases self-confidence in the water, which ultimately influences performance. With Jaze, you don't have to worry about your swimsuit not being up to standard - we combine style and functionality to give you the best possible swimming experience.
Tight fitting
When it comes to a swimsuit, it's important to find the right size. You should make sure that the sports swimsuit fits snugly, offers good support and does not slip. At the same time, it should be wide enough so that the straps and seams do not cut in uncomfortably when worn, thereby negatively affecting the swimming experience. Only the ideal mix of these two criteria ensures a comfortable fit, so that the swimsuit feels like a second skin. This is important so that you can fully concentrate on your swimming training.
Tip: Jaze swimwear is cut a little smaller. If you are between two sizes according to our size chart, we recommend the larger one.
Free shoulder area
The different swimming techniques require maximum freedom of movement in the shoulder area. An open back in sports swimsuits is therefore not only an eye-catcher, but also has a functional significance, especially for professional swimmers: it ensures maximum flexibility and freedom of movement for the shoulders.
The Jaze models also have different back views depending on your preference, are either tied or adjustable in size and can therefore be adjusted to your body to achieve the necessary stability. The back straps are thin in order to adapt to every movement in the water and not rub against the skin.
Tip: Test different strap variations and lacings to get an overview of the differences. Jaze offers a comprehensive selection for different tastes.
High quality material
Anyone who moves a lot in the water must be able to rely on the quality of their swimsuit. In addition to durability, the elasticity of the material is also important. It must fit the body and allow freedom of movement. At the same time, the material should retain its shape and contract again after stretching – without stretching out. A quick-drying, water-repellent material is also an important criterion for swimwear.
The environmentally sustainable, high-quality fabrics used in Jaze swimwear provide a unique blend of muscle compression and comfort. The material is also pleasantly soft on the skin, compact, light and breathable.
Tip: Thanks to its innovative composition, Vita, made of a ECONYL® regenerated Nylon, is twice as resistant to chlorine and sun creams and oils as conventional fabrics.
Neckline
A V-neck emphasizes the décolleté and also draws attention to the face. Horizontal necklines, on the other hand, emphasize the shoulders. It is important that the neckline fits tightly and prevents water from entering between the swimsuit and the skin, which hinders you from swimming. You should avoid a neckline that is too low for swimming training, as it does not provide the appropriate support for free movement. Among other things, the neckline shows the difference between a sporty and a fashion swimsuit. With a competition swimsuit you shouldn't have to worry about anything slipping. The focus is on performance and competition.
Tip: The sports swimsuits from Jaze range from horizontal to a slight U-shape, always with the sporty demands that their wearers place on them.
High leg cut
The leg cut plays an important role, because it should fit the legs perfectly without cutting in unpleasantly. The seams should be flat and inconspicuous to avoid friction and marks on the skin. This is especially important in the crotch area.
The fact that Jaze opted for a high leg cut in his sports swimsuits has primarily to do with aesthetics. High heels on land are equivalent to a high leg cut in swimsuits: both make the legs appear longer. This aspect is particularly highlighted in the sports swimsuits from Jaze. The high leg cutout as a fashionable design element in swimwear gives self-confidence and thus indirectly affects performance.
At Jaze we are convinced that top performance is a combination of functionality and aesthetics. Because if you move confidently in the water, this can be transferred to your performance.
What you should consider when trying on a swimsuit:
When trying on a new swimsuit, there are a few things to keep in mind to ensure that it fits well and provides the support and freedom of movement you need during exercise, especially swimming.
Try different movements: Move your arms as if you were swimming. The swimsuit should not slip or be uncomfortably tight. Sit down and lean forward to see if the swimsuit is cutting into your skin or riding up.
Try different sizes: Each brand has different cuts and fits. When trying on new swimsuits for the first time, it can be useful to test different sizes to get the most support and comfort.
Try different cuts and straps: Women will be women and we love fashion, right? :-) That's why the sports swimsuits from Jaze offer not only different designs but also different back views and thus variety during swimming training.
Have fun!
