One thing I’ve started to notice is how I hate the way most jammers fit on my legs. The seams on the bottoms are just way too tight and constricting - they really pinch into my thighs. I never consider myself as having larger thighs, but now I’m sorta second guessing this a bit (I had the same issue with some De Soto products with the same type of construction being too tight in the thigh). I try pulling/stretching the band at the thigh, but this never really works. I’ve switch all my cycling bibs to a compression style fit and these are just so much more comfortable for me.
So…is anyone familiar, does anyone make a jammer with a compression fitting at the thigh like they use in cycling and tri shorts (see the Louis Garneau shorts below)? If not, will tri shorts hold up just as well as jammers for pool workouts on a routine basis?
I think I need to make a switch here to something new, but want to make sure it will hold up to continious chlorine abuse.
I’d be interested in finding jammers that have this type of seam/gripper area too.
My legs are light years from what anyone would call “big”, but I can really feel the leg seams digging in. The rest of the fit is fine; it’s just that seam.
