Poly suits

I have decided that the next suit I get will be a polyester suit. I find
that the lycra suits wear out too quickly for my likeing. It will either be
from Speedo, TYR or Nike.

Any suggestions on sizing and care?

Before each use, spray oven cleaner in it.

I buy my suits from agonswim Grab Bag. They have two fabric blends that
are essentially immune to chlorine. here's the link to the fabric
explanations. http://www.agonswim.com/fabrics/fabricInformationGuide.cfm

I have tried both the PBT and the Speedline. The PBT's seem to run about a
size small, probaably because they have almost no stretch so I use them for
competition but Iprefer the speedlines for everyday use. The one I'm using
now(Speedline type) has been going strong since August, 2005...thats
2500-4000 yards a day, 4-5 days a week. The only thing I notice is some
fraying from friction. I buy them from the grab bag section
http://www.agonswim.com/nonCustom/grabBag/grabBag.cfm you get some funky
looking styles or team suit overuns but they're only $16 each plus $6
shipping up to $100. Good quick service too. Hope this helps
