"It's worth the investment to not have to replace the suit as often."Carlton Bale
Ease of use
You put them on and tie the string, just like any other jammer suit.
Quality of Construction
Seems seem to be well sewn and comfortable.
Fit
Multiple people in the Amazon reviews have complained that they are sized smaller than other Speedo products. I don't believe that they are, but since they don't stretch as much, you can't get away with picking the wrong size a easily. (FYI, I have a 33" waist and wear the 34" size.)
Comfort
Because they don't stretch as much, they are not quite as comfortable as nylon/lycra. On the other hand, they are also more supportive, which I prefer when swimming, so it's a toss-up when compared to other options.
Durability
Unlike the regular Endurance suits, and the regular nylon/lycra suits, these are 100% chlorine-proof.
Value
The Endurance + version cost three times what the standard nylon/lycra version did, but it should last at least 3 times longer, so I still consider it to be a good value.
Appearance
Basic black jammers. Also available in blue. Small white Speedo Endurance+ logo on the bottom edge. Nothing fancy, which is perfect for me, but more colors wouldn't be bad.
Strengths
Nice basic appearance.
Extremely durable.
More leg support.
No as likely to realize you have a see-through spot mid-swim.
Weakness
Not quite as stretchy and costs more than the basic nylon/lycra alternatives.

Ease of installation
The polyester jammers do not have as much stretch as the regular nylon/lycra Speedo jammers. So they fit a bit more tightly and are not quiet as easy to get on.
