Uglies Swimsuit Tie Dye with Mystic Baggy Drag Shorts

 What are drag shorts?    Drag shorts are a type of swim wear that is put over the top of your swimming costume.        

Why are drag shorts worn?  Drag shorts are made be be worn in training and are for serious swimmers. They increase drag and so when you are racing it feels easier to swim and faster, it can also make you feel less ressistance.  Other forms of drag wear include nylons and t-shirts. Drag shorts are good to built up your strenght in training, this is done by increased friction.  You can increase speed once drag items are removed for competition.  Drag shorts are not worn during competitions but some people wear drag shorts in the warm-up before their race.

About Uglies drag shorts:   They are not as tough as speedo drag shorts. They look great with an Uglies/dolfin swimming costume but try and get two different designs. For example: Daisymania drag shorts and a pinkabelle swimming costume. I have a pair of mystic drag shorts and I wear them with my sunshine swimming costume. (To see all the Uglies/dolfin swim wear look for the post on the home page or in the category: Swimming costumes.)

Here is the Winter/Christmas range for 2010

We have 4 Dolfin Uglies costumes from this 2010 winter collection and we also try to match our swimming caps with the colours of the Uglies costumes for example, with the Dolfin Uglies Palma swimsuit we choose a white silicone swimming hat, with the Dolfin Uglies Peony swimsuit we choose a pink hat, for the Dolfin Uglies Valentina swimming costume we choose a blue hat and lastly for the Dolfin Uglies Rhapsody swimming costume we wear a Yellow silicone swimming hat.

Because we both have long hair we find that the swimshops own brand “WIN” silicone hats fit us better then the Speedo caps.

When you buy a new dress you accessorise with matching bag, jewellery and shoes etc….likewise when you buy a new Dolfin Uglies Swimming Costume for maximum impact and wow factor on poolside, you need a matching swimming cap.

Swimming Costumes

Swimming Costumes

 

Hi my name is Olivia, during my swimming time I have had quite a few training and racing swimming costumes to stay the least. This is my advice for training swimming costumes to get the most for your money. My top costume is an Uglies. Starting from £15 admitally it is fairly expensive, but a regular Uglies costume could potentially last one whole year. I train five days a week for 1 hour in my much loved Uglies costume. In the last year I have had three Uglies costumes and I could still be wearing the first costume now which is still like new. The only reason I changed my costume is because fashion had moved on and they had a new really pretty collection.

I also love their drag shorts collection. I got a pair for Christmas this year, so unfortunately it would not be fair to give a full report of these as I have only owned a pair for a couple of weeks now. However from the time I have had to swim in them they are great. They go fantastically with my Uglies costume and fit me perfectly after I tie a bow in them. A fabulous buy.
