Can you swim with this?

This sleeve gave me (and many, many others) a bad rash where the upper retention band touched my skin. Still there after nearly a month. If you're not worried about the rash possibility then there's no reason it wouldn't stay on in the water--certainly you can wash it.

I believe you can swim with it on. There is a commercial with a former Olympic swimmer, that shows her coming out of a swimming pool, with one on. I have tried other support sleeves, but this is the best one I have ever used.

No, it is waterproof, but i wouldn't recommend swimming with it. It will probably slip off, the elasic band wears out after awhile. I had to keep pulling it up after a month of wearing.

I have not tried this with swimming, I don't think it was meant to do that. I have used it to exercise - and it did get wet with sweat and still works, no issues

Yes. I haven, t gone swimming with it but I shower with it on and have had no problems.

Yes, but you have to turn the volume up loud. And, since it connects to goggles when you are swimming, you may look funny with goggles on land. Just joking, but seriously, it is a outstanding device for using while swimming.

Yes, you can as it is just for a cover. Do not use if you will do any swimming or sweating as it will run green

waterproof no, water resistant yes according to tje manufacturer . So, You may wash your hands but you can't swim wearing it. Honestly i usually remove before i wash my hands i don't want to get into trouble :). The good thing about it is very easy to wear and remov.

I've got mine wet a couple of times, Don't know if you can swim in it. It take quite a bit of abuse.

Hi. Bought this for my husband and he uses it for snorkeling and sometimes swimming. He really likes it.

No, but it has an extra lining all the way through. Definitely designed for swimmers.

Yes, but you're not submerged. On those really hot, humid days, the little bit of water cools you off nicely. Also, I am the Queen of "floaties" & with all those I've had, this one doesn't lose air & remains inflated for more than just one day. I trust you'll love it.

Don't swim in deep water. I imagine you would sink!!! You would have to be a pretty good swimmer just to manage the weight of the wet vest alone! If you are going to try it, I would recommend having someone responsible nearby for safty.

Although I've never participated in a swimming triathlon I see no reason why you cannot. I'm a scuba diver. The suit helps insulate body heat as well as helps with aerodynamics while under water. It seems reasonable that it would be suitable for lake use. Hope this helps.

My physician recommended this item after I broke my neck. I can swim w/o turning my head to breath. It does work well; however, swimming is not really my thing and I am not significantly enamored with the pool. Although I do plan to build strength and endurance in the pool, starting in the spring to prepare myself for whitewater kayaking.

Sorry - it is not recommended for swimming. However, it has a way you can enter the style of swimming, the level of effort and the time spent and it will calculate the approximate calories burned. I did this while in Greece and had no problem. It is not recommended for the shower either.

Sorry it isn't water resistant you can exercise with it but can't go swimming with it. There are three holes on the bottom so it can fill up with water if you swim.

I do not know the answer to this question. I bought this for a friend who does not know how to swim so I doubt that she ever tried to snorkel with it.

No...you can't wear it while swimming. This particular model is not waterproof.
