If you read the “about” page you will know that this all started with my son. A young swimmer who loved to chat too much instead of getting changed, I designed the Tracksuit to swerve the changing room agony that is parents waiting forever, or if with younger children, battling the changing rooms, lockers, damp and cold. Let’s face it, the worst thing about swimming is dealing with getting changed afterwards.
I’m not a cute and cuddly sort of person, I started my working life as an aeronautical engineer, I tried to include everything I needed in the Tracksuit (waterproof, zips on the arms and legs etc), so I guess we should feel lucky they don’t fly, can you imagine your kids taking off down the road….on the other hand, maybe a great idea for an upgrade!
When I decided that other parents, (and adults) might also like them and find them useful, I didn’t quite appreciate the challenge of launching a new product. How would people know they needed it if they don’t know it exists?
I mused for a long time, and even wondered if perhaps I had got it wrong.
Then the world was turned on it’s head and everything changed, this is 2020. As it turns out, the very reason I designed the Tracksuits (to avoid the changing rooms, or get dressed when there aren’t any) is the very situation we find ourselves in now. The Tracksuits have flown out the door, and we are now into a new production run extending our range and sizes.
But what really makes me happy is the messages I have been getting, texts, emails, facebook messages, pictures of peoples kids in their new Tracksuits, out of the blue, I have been receiving feedback, and everyday it makes me smile.
My son that started all this, the chatterbox, is now 19, still wears a Tracksuit for swimming, albeit at 6ft 4 and not the same one he started in. I’ve dragged him into all sorts such as a photo shoot in January on the beach, well, after all, it’s because he spent to long in the changing rooms when he was young, that we found ourselves here. Everyday, I show my son the messages I get with a big smile on my face, and tell him he is forgiven 🙂
So I thought if you would indulge me, I would put up a just a few of the emails, texts, messages I have received that made me smile, starting with one just this afternoon :
Wow !!!!! Wow, wow, wow! Love the tracksuit! Thank you, perfect fit x
He’s is delighted x
He said “I might be a swimming model because it looks so good” 
Text from customer :
I just wanted to say thank you so much for all your help re getting the sizing right for my two girls and the swift delivery service. The Tracksuits are super.
I run a swimming school and have recommended you to lots of them as under these times particularly the tracksuits are perfect after swimming lessons to just quickly put on as changing rooms aren’t accessible
Thank you once again for the great service.
Customer with 4 kids that swim :
Ordered at weekend, arrived yesterday and used today. Meant they only needed to take goggles and drink in addition to what they were wearing and were able to leave swiftly and without hassle. Really aided the transition back to the pool.

Hi! I recently bought a QuikDri Tracksuit for speeding up my transit in and out of the pool in the aftermath of Covid-19. Just thought I’d let you know it’s a great success! Our gym was very clear on minimising the length of time spent changing. I walk there in swimming costume and tracksuit with just a tiny bag (enough for my gym card, inhaler and 20p for the locker). Then straight into the pool, swim, dress and go. No fuss and minimal time in the changing room (which is probably the most likely place for the virus to hang out). I even took my 2 year old and made the same speedy exit with her bundled in a towel.
Adult Diver, also bought for his children
Loving mine, will make getting wet much easier
