January 25th, 2016 01:53 PM #3If you're going to the beach, you may also want to buy a rashguard with UV protection. i've never gone swimming without it ever since na dikya ako. Saves you a lot of sunblock too.
It also tightens up your torso so you lok leaner than you really are, parang girdle ^_^
Re goggles: please note that these tend to restrict your vision under water. afaik these are used for competition, where you don't exactly need peripheral vision. i bought a Mares mask a few years ago, these come with silicon straps these days, much easier on the head. Meron namang hindi gaanong bulky.
imho don't need to buy speedo for board shorts, any local brands will do: SnS, Maui & Sons, AllStar. i like that they are a bit tighter around the thighs, less chance of anything swimming up thereLast edited by badkuk; January 25th, 2016 at 02:03 PM.

January 25th, 2016 02:05 PM #5May reef branch sa eastwood, laging naka sale yun kasi parang outlet. Dun ako naka bili ng slippers na mejo makapal at maporma (hindi flip flops). Legit swim wear yang reef.

yup board shorts. yan nga din ang concern ko kung generic tapos madaling mapunit. I'm willing to pay more naman basta sulit ang price pero hwag lang sobrang mahal.
I only go to the beach once a year so most of the time I use it sa pool lang. I have not heard the local brands SnS & AllStar for swimwear. how's the quality so far? is it good enough to use it frequently?
Will also check the reef brand. may branch din ba sila sa Megamall, Market market or Aura?
Thanks in Advance

Yeah, a rashguard may be overkill for the pool, same with the diving mask...although mas makikita mo ng malinaw yung nasa ilalim ng tubig :naughty2:
Truth is, i haven't gone to the beach as much as i'd like. OK naman yung SnS, tho the brand is virtually unknown. OK naman siya, material and stitching are solid. All Star is actually more on athletic wear, not much on swimwear. Both can be found in SM dept stores.

I would recommend buying the most you could afford when it comes to swimwear

Be careful with channels like "China Observer" on YouTube. There is a clear bias in their posts and...
