What is the difference between this (Neoprene) and the Speedo classic vest?

The new Neoprene version uses new type of rubber that was recently developed and it's name is neoprene. Basically it translates to a new version using new technology and innovation.

I'm not positive but I think the classic vest is thicker and bulkier then the neoprene.

Doesn't look much different in the pictures. Maybe an were model? I don't recall this being available when I bought my speed2. I did try on the belts at a running store to check the fit before buying, maybe they would have the 2 models to compare.

rashguard, in general, and this shirt, in particular, is worn for sun protection, not to keep warm. For that, you will need a wet suit made of neoprene, which comes in long or short sleeve and varying thickness.

It's neoprene... Like what they use in scuba suits... It will fit snug on your face... For awhile, but after time it stretches out and don't fit as well... Also the Velcro wears out.

I tried on a long type vest and a short type vest at Dicks Sports before buying, I would suggest to do the same first before deciding. But, I like the short vest because it seems to put more weight on your shoulders, chest and upper back where the longer vest put a little more pressure on the lower back and not so much on the upper section of your back.

I'd say the air swimmers are better. They are the original and not a cheap knockoff. Had I known that at the time, I would have gotten the air swimmers. From what I've read on the reviews, they are made with better quality.

I am pretty sure that they are the same. We bought these on Amazon awhile back because we could not find them at stores in Canada but now, you can buy Speedo Swim Vests like these in Target stores for about $20 each. These helped our son with his swimming confidence. Just a reminder.. and you probably know this but these are not life jackets. You should still swim within reach of your child when they wear these.

Brian I know nothing about the neoprene one. I would expect that it may be the same. I had asked around about kids life jackets / beginning to swim type and was told about the Speedo one. I am very please with this one and had no problems with my grandson wearing it. He had a different one that was bulky, like the life jackets you see on boats and hated wearing it as it rubbed him under his arms and on the side of his face as it rode up on him. Got him this one and absolutely NO COMPLAINTS about wearing it. I got the 30-50 lbs one and he is six years old. He is small for his age, but anything bigger would not have worked it would have had to be returned as it would have defeated the purpose because it would have been too big. He is still wearing it this year. Hope this helps.

I'm not 100% sure if they're identical, but they look to be exactly the same in the band area. I've been really pleased w/ the one that I bought on Amazon. I was going to buy the Beach Body version when I started P90X3, but went w/ this one because it was Less expensive. Hope this helps you out.

They are a mixture: the padding on the front (the palm side) is a real leather and very supple so it doesn't bind. The back is made of a stretch material that is thinner and more comfortable than neoprene, but sturdier than what you might think of as bathing suit lycra. Granted, I'm not loading my personal pair up with 100 pound weights, but I've had mine for a long time and they have held up really well, especially for the price.

I preferred the neoprene, but I think such choices are a very individual thing--I just prefer the feel of the neoprene instead of the slippery-feeling vinyl.

The new version has different strap wraps. They're a lot longer and go around the chest clip.

To me the are about the same. I couldn't tell the difference between the two. But if you really want the best protection buy the life proof.

They are neoprene. However, the sizing is odd and slides off of cans and bottles. We keep them as spares on our houseboat.

OS means one size and NA means not available. All speedo vanquishers come in one size and they are adjustable. Or you can purchase an adjustable biggie cord which is much more durable and comfortable on your head
