I was lucky enough to come across a couple more Speedo sunsuits/cover-up swimsuits, including the 2008 Splash Kneesuit (the pink one in the images adjacent and below) that I have been looking for ever since missing the chance to buy it when on sale at one of the online swim stores. The Glow kneesuit (the blue suit in the pictures) was an added bonus as I already have it in pink, but never seen it available in the blue (although it was shown in some Speedo product photos).
Will add some non-stock photos as soon as the new kneesuits arrive!
After years of just black, Speedo in the UK now offer the venerable hydrasuit in a range of four colours: black (of course), sepia brown, blackcurrent brown and most recently, usa navy. The hydrasuit is one of the most popular single styles of swimsuits for sports swimming (as opposed to leisure swimming) and is also enjoyed by many men, having a fuller cut than typical strap based one piece swimsuits. The hydrasuit is an extremely flexible swimsuit that can also be comfortably worn beneath wetsuits or sailing gear.
Fortunately I have added a few more swimsuits to my collection – will try to do a few photos in the next couple of days. One suit I did get was another Speedo kneesuit from their cover-up range. This particular one is the Speedo Girl’s Splash Kneesuit. As far as choosing a size went, after emailing Speedo to check the difference between a women’s 34 and a girl’s 34, I went for a 34 based on the fact that children’s swimsuits are slightly shorter in the body and the size 32 women’s kneesuit that I already have, is a size 32.
After seeing the Speedo cover-up swimsuits on the Speedo website some time ago, I finally relented and bought a couple when I saw them in a shop recently. The swimsuits were much better in the flesh so to speak and after buying them, was quite looking forward to trying them on. The cover-up range runs large – the swimsuits are not supposed to be tight like a normal swimsuit, so I went for a size 32 rather than my normal 34. Very glad I did!
During my regular browse of eBay, I came across another swimsuit in the same range as the hooded & long-sleeve swimsuits that I have previously managed to buy. This new one is a “strap” type rather than a hydrasuit style, so is not normally that sort of swimsuit that I tend to buy. However, it being in the same range, I felt that it was a must have! Hopefully it will arrive by the end of the coming week. The back style is a little different to a normal strap style suit, and the front is v-shape. The swimsuit is front lined.
I thought that I was aware of all the Speedo swimsuit designs. Then, on my regular search of eBay, I came across a Speedo hooded swimsuit! Yes, you did read that right, a hooded swimsuit. As luck would have it, and plenty of bidding, I won the auction (for a reasonable amount as well) and a few days later, the swimsuit arrived. The material is similar to the endurance material – quite thick. The swimsuit has a zip that goes from under the right arm up to the front of the neck. Getting into the swimsuit is a little more difficult than a normal swimsuit and one does need to be quite flexible! Once zipped into the swimsuit, and with the hood up, it really does feel comfortable. The lower back of the swimsuit is open – I think a styling thing rather than any other reason! You can see the rest of the hooded swimsuit images in the 
So, after getting such an amazing swimsuit, imagine my surprise when a Speedo long-sleeved swimsuit from the same range came up on eBay a few days later! Two very rare swimsuits so soon after each other and from different sellers! The long sleeve swimsuit has a rear zip like the normal Speedo hydrasuit, but the lower back is again open. The swimsuit is made from the same material as the hooded swimsuit. See the 
Well, finally, after years of just having the black Speedo hydrasuit, you can now buy it in blackcurrant (in the UK at least). As soon as I saw it, I ordered it and the swimsuit arrived within days!

Finally I have managed to get myself organised and arrange some new photos and even a couple of videos for OnePieceSwim.com! Both the photo collection and videos are based around a black zentai suit with a black & white Speedo swimsuit underneath (which if you view the “Zentai Undressed” collection, you will see!).
