Too bad that you don't automatically look as good as they do just by wearing it.  I can use all the help I can get ;-)

I really like it.  I think it looks a lot better than the plain ones they were wearing during the trials.

I dont like it, It seems they made the suit and forgot the speed panels (or whatever they are called) and they were added last min. But whatev, the swim team performances are more important that their swim suits

LOL, I am just as patriotic as the next guy and am all for sporting the red, white and blue, but whenever I see them, I think to myself, "Those suits are sooo ugly!!" LOL. I don't like them at all .

Unfortunately, I concur--the way they have the stars arranged, and the stripes, then the funky speed panels--it kind of looks like a patched-together clown suit.

The idea, and the suits, are killer. Just a bit of a visual design flaw (IMO) making them not appeal to me.

I am not American but I love them.  I have commented to my American husband on numerous occasions that I think they look fantastic.

It's like that one dude from the 4x100 team said; the suit isn't getting up at 5AM, but he is!

I like the way the look when they are hanging off the men's hips. Way low on their hips. Way low.

x2 or 3 or whatever. F-uuu-gly.

Also agree wtih Renee. I like watching the interviews after the race and may or may not have rewound the Tivo a few times to play back a bare chest interview.

If wonder Woman were a man (I know that would make him wonderman...which is a marvel character and not DC and in no way related)...but if Wonder Woman were male, this would be a great outfit for him. 

Yes I am a nerd

I like it and I'm Canadian.  It looks pretty good.  But, those things are too darned expensive.  Of course, if I could get one for free I could not care less if it were pink with purple polka dots.
