As the original inventors of buoyancy shorts back in 2007, we are proud that our first design is still going strong and are now called the 'Originals' to recognise their heritage. With over a decade of fantastic customer reviews behind them, they have helped thousands of swimmers to improve both their body position in the water and swim technique.

The 'Originals' are made from top Yamamoto Smoothskin neoprene and are stitched and bonded the same way as a triathlon wetsuit. The shorts are designed using 3mm neoprene down the centre for buoyancy and 5mm neoprene down the sides to promote hip rotation through each stroke.

HERE is a guide to choosing the right buoyancy shorts for you.
