OPEN WATER & TRIATHLON

Swimming Wetsuits

For sea swimmers and competition open water swimming alike, a triathlon wetsuit is designed to glide through the water for optimal speed using special coating for minimal drag. Beginner swimmers can choose a wetsuit designed for extra buoyancy for support or more experienced swimmers can choose a wetsuit for maximum speed.

Swimming Equipment Reviews

★★★★★

Have had these goggles for a couple of weeks now. Using them daily, excellent fit, no leaks, don't fog up. Worth the price, will buy again when I need goggles in the future.
