For a brand born on Bondi Beach near Sydney, Australia in 1928, Speedo's come a long way, baby. More Olympic Gold Medals have been won in Speedo than any other brand, and their Fastskinä line has appeared on the sleek bods of eight-time medalist Michael Phelps & seven-time medalist Amanda Beard.

Speedo's new XD skin water-repellent fabric helps keep water-loving athletes stay XtraDry, meaning you'll feel lighter in the pool, your suit won't absorb harmful chemicals (making it more durable), and there will be no more lingering pool odors or mildew. “As a triathlete, moving from the water to the land, I need to be comfortable in what I wear," says Olympic triathlete Barb Lindquist. "XD skin dries quickly and reduces chafing as I run, helping me to perform at the top of my game.” XD skin is featured in two different lines within the Performance Collection:  Swim (for training) and Multisport (unitards & separates).
