I bet it does! I'm having those finny gloves mooted around me, which is scary. And I have to put an order into Swimshop for some new swimmies 'cos the bum on mine is failing...
...discussions of arse are doomed, but you could wear stripy bloomers and have a trained octopus sticking out of it if you like. In a swimmy, it's your shoulders and V-shape that catch attention - nobody's looking at yer bum!
They are quite knackering. I'd get your technique right before working on strength or you'll end up working the muscles wrongly. All they do is add to the resistance - it's like anything else. If you increase resistance your form can suffer.
What do you think? Can I justify the TYR suit on the basis that it's cool?
Aye, that's why I've held off so far - I know my form has plenty of scope for improvement too.
Of course you can justify it. I mean, it's black and silver. That makes it practically mandatory. And people will think that a supervillain trains at their pool.

I do like those TYR suits. Wish I could justify one.
Incidentally, 20 lengths followed by 10 using those blasted gloves then another 10 lengths really knackers you something chronic.
