Speedo Swim

Anyone who is even slightly interested in swimming - goes to the pool a couple of times a week or simply does not switch the channel during the swims during the summer Olympic Games, he will not raise a brow when he heard the foreign word Speedo. After all, this is nothing more than the name of one of the most famous firms for the production of goods for swimming.

Of course, only the chosen of this world can achieve the results of the famous “Baltimore bullet”, but it is possible for any man to acquire swimming trunks like Phelps’s.

Pool revolution

Back in 1914 in the suburbs of Australian Sydney, one very enterprising emigrant from Scotland (Alexander MacRae) opened a factory for the production of underwear “MacRae Hosiery Manufacturers”, later replacing the name with “MacRae Knitting Mills”. However, at first it was not possible to achieve much success, and only a few years later, having realized that it was possible to benefit from the climate of Australia and its beach culture, the entrepreneur decided to expand production by producing swimwear. And after 14 years, one of these garments called Racerback, made of silk, becomes revolutionary in the segment of goods for swimming.

All previous swimming suits made of wool got wet in the water and weighed up to 5 kg, while the new Racerback gave more freedom to movement. A sensation in the swimming world led to the fact that the company once again renamed itself Speedo, and from now on famous champions began to perform there. After that, the company only continued to gain momentum - swimming suits made of nylon, super-elastic fabric, which included polyester and elastane, and even the use of specially developed technology that mimics the texture of shark skin.
