I might be bigotted for saying this.
but wouldn`t that outfit still seem abit revealing
also that article makes it seem that swimming is harder in our world than in a islamic community.
due to a lack of seperate facilities.
I`m not sure it`s all that accomidating in the islamic world.
I have a sunni friend who tells me women just don`t swim in general in pakistan.
that outfit would be abit warmer than a standard wet suit.
but it would make a great training suit for competitative swimmers.
it looks like it has serious drag.
I wear a full outfit and swim in a pool to increase my stamina.
you need serious endurance to swim in clothes

Swimming in the Islamic world is much easier for Muslims that observe modesty - and that includes men. There are swimming clubs for men only, women only, or families only (adults with children, no single men allowed).

There is still an issue when someone wants to go swimming in the Dead, Red or Mediterranean Seas. We drove down to the Dead Sea for dinner recently and I saw Saudi women going in wearing full Burqa. They didn't look very comfortable - this swimsuit needs more advertising!

  The suit is supposed to be made of a fabric that doesn't adzorb water and does not cling , I can not judge how dareing a Muslim woman would need to be .


   But , I am sure that this does not cure all the probems that there could be.

   
    I can't imagine Muslims swmming on the Mediterainian beaches like Palma Majorica or Tormolinos where the Naked Germans are wall to wall.

   Being exposed may be one problem , bt haveing xposure around one is another.

that`s the flaw i see in this custom of covering up
seeing a naked german who looks like rosanne barr to us westerner is we no like to see
but to a guy who don`t see nudity period and equate nudity only to sex.
I just don`t  see a moral superiority in islam.

I think we got tired of only being able to swim a few feet at a time .
those outfits are good for wading but for serious swimming not that great.
note everything today is streamlined,to cut down drag
the bikini is just a fashion thing.
less looks good on some people,so it catches on.
but notice we don`t go nuts if a naked walks by
we`ll stare or tell her to put some clothes on.
it`ll be very unlikely she`ll be harmed.
in islamic countries would this woman be as safe?
