For the first time, Fike Swim will be supplying The YMCA of Metropolitan Dallas with a range of high-performance swim apparel for its area lifeguards and athletes. Using lightweight fabrics, the training suits’ compression fit moves with swimmers, potentially making it easier to maximize an individual’s speed and distance per stroke. In addition to new swimsuits, Y lifeguards will receive custom trunks and rashguards.
“As a loyal Y member for the last 13 years and as a competitive swimmer, I know having the right gear is vital,” said James Fike, founder of Fike Swim. “Our goal is to help Y swimmers and lifeguards move quicker, dry faster, and feel more confident when they hit the water.”
Fike Swim is dedicated to ensuring athletes have comfortable and quality apparel, this includes perfecting details such as sublimating the logo into the fabric to avoid it peeling and making the materials chlorine-resistant to prolong the life of the suit.
“Competitive swimming has become part of the Y’s sports catalog in recent years, and with out growing group of teams and staff, it’s important they have the tools necessary to be successful,” said Jennifer Pewitt, Associate Vice President of the YMCA of Metropolitan Dallas. “We’re grateful to have support from Fike Swim to help our swimmers and Y staff perform at their best and feel their best.”
