Description

Nike continues to break barriers in technological innovations in sport, and this time Nike takes a dip into elite competitive swimming with the Nike Swim Flex LT Jammer. Utilizing the best in R and D combined with superior fabrics, and feedbacks from elite swimmers and coaches, the Nike Swim Flex LT jammer allows the driven competitive swimmer maximum advantage in a FINA approved jammer to beat personal records or  blow the competition out of the water.

The Nike Swim Flex LT Jammer, uses several standard, as well as innovative and proprietary technologies to produce a jammer for elite level swimming. The Flex LT jammer is made from one-piece exceptionally lightweight fabric and compared to most elite jammers on the market, is 100% stitch free. The Flex LT jammer utilizes proprietary bonded seams that provide superior durability, along with exception comfort, fit, and low drag properties. The jammer is also tailored to end above the knee level, to provide a wide range of motion and prevent impediment of knee flexion during the kicks. Unique leg compression improves muscle stability to help generate more power as well as promoting better endurance and recovery by facilitating better blood flow.

The Flex LT jammer is also convenient designed with exception leg flexibility that allows a wide range of motion, even when with sideward movements. The fabric is exceptionally water repellant and helps to prevent excess water absorption and retention, which causes the jammer to be heavier in the water and increases drag. Unlike other jammers, the Flex LT jammer has a drawstring waist for better fitting. Nike also conveniently adds a “modesty panel” in the front brief area.

The Nike Swim Flex LT jammer is an excellent choice for competitive swimmers looking to improve performance. Take note however, that the Nike Swim Flex LT jammer is not recommended for any activity beyond swimming as the construction and design was made for the rigors and biomechanics of swimming. Using the jammer as a multisport short will hasten degradation of the fabrics as it was not designed to accommodate the movements and heavier stresses of running or cycling. The jammer also does not include a chamois, necessary for comfort during the bike leg. The Nike Swim Flex LT jammer is a durable swim jammer.

However, like most elite level jammers frequent use and chlorine exposure will hasten the wear and tear as well as degradation of the fabrics. We strongly recommend using an alternate jammer for training and another for racing. This will prolong the usable life of your Nike Swim Flex LT jammer. The Nike Swim Flex LT jammer comes with an MSRP of $260.
