Speedo has released information on its upcoming Autumn/Winter Sports collection for 2009.

Described as 'retro', a range of the swimsuits and tankinis on offer are to incorporate the company's signature racerback design.

Watershorts and swimsuits are available in bright, bold colours, said to give a youthful appearance with the shorts coming with bonded seams that are similar to what has been used in the Speedo LZR Racer suit.

The watershorts also come with drawstring waists, flat fronts and elasticated backs for an improved fit as well as pocket drainage to eliminate the carrying of extra water.
