管理历史
The company was founded in Sydney, Australia by Alexander MacRae. He began by manufacturing knitted underwear and socks using the brand name 'Fortitude'. The company made their first swimwear range in 1927 with a racer-back design and began using the name 'Speedo' in 1928. Speedo swimsuits were first worn by competitive swimmers at the Olympic Games in 1932. Since the 1930s Speedo has made swimwear for racing as well as leisurewear and has pioneered technical advances in materials and designs which have often been controversial. The company was acquired by the Pentland Group in 1991.

说明
Speedo launched their first Fastskin suits at the 2000 Olympic Games in Sydney, Australia. The design was developed by Fiona Fairhurst who was inspired by the skin texture of sharks. The fabric design aimed to mimic the V-shaped ridges of shark skin to reduce drag. It was also coated with Teflon. More significantly the design moulded to the body to act as a second skin, compressing muscles and creating a silhouette to maximise performance in the water. The seaming was also designed to enhance muscle coordination while swimming.
