Swimrun Adventure Suit

Swimrun wetsuits have the zipper on the front end of the suit for easy dressing/undressing. It is also nicer to have zipped down in front during running, both for cooling down and breathing. They are usually made from thinner neoprene so the athlete doesn’t overheat on the run section.

A wetsuit needs to fit snugly: if it's too loose it'll allow water into the suit that'll seriously slow you down. If it's too tight, your swimming experience won't be pleasant. When trying on, the suit should feel tight but not restrictive.

Absolutely nothing! Tri suits are an all-in-one solution. You should never wear underwear underneath your tri suit.

Many professionals and amateurs prefer to train in a tri suit as it replicates that race-day feeling, but we recommend you only wear your Raceskin suit when you need to. Our tri suits are high-performance products and should be treated with care to avoid damage.

Raceskin has developed the world’s most advanced triathlon clothing, incorporating the latest in science, technology and innovation to deliver exceptional performance. They’re lightweight, aerodynamic and are designed in the latest styles, so you’ll look good while racing.

The Teflon coating on the Elite suit acts as a second skin, helping you to glide through the water. When riding or running, it’s lightweight and flexible, forming around your body to provide the support you need. Our race-ready triathlon suits are the first choice of some pros and many of the leading age-group athletes who have appeared on podiums worldwide.

You can find details about our triathlon kit sizing in our size guide.

Your triathlon suit is a significant investment, so you want it to stay perfect for a while. Here are our top tips to keep it in the best condition.

Follow the washing instructions for your tri suit - wash at the correct temperature and don’t use fabric conditioner as it damages the fabric.
If you’re having a post-race massage, DON’T pull on the legs of your tri suit up around the top of your thighs. If you do, it will likely stretch the grippers. Either change first or have a calf massage.
Beware of VELCRO - printed tri suit fabric is delicate. Please take care to avoid contact between your tri suit and any velcro. If you snag velcro on your tri suit, it will pull it.
Don’t train in your tri suit in a chlorinated swimming pool; you’re effectively swimming in bleach. It will damage your kit and strip the colour out of it if you are not careful. If you race in it and it’s a pool swim, remember to wash your suit as soon as you have finished the race.
These are high-performance race suits made for racing, not continuous training for weeks and months. While leading up to a race, maybe you want to do one or two sessions to check you are comfortable, but you don’t need to constantly train in your suit leading up to your race.

Avoid touching your tri suit with sunscreen, balsamic liquids or the typical heating products. These products contain chemicals that can quickly damage and deteriorate technical materials.

Turn your tri suit inside down before washing
Close all zippers and buttons
Wash clothes by machine or by hand without exceeding 30ºC
Never dry clean
Use liquid and neutral soaps

We recommend the use of washing bags if you do it by machine
Rinse thoroughly with water to remove any traces of detergent
Spinning the laundry is contraindicated. Nor should it be drained or rubbed to remove excess water
Do not tumble dry your tri suit
Clothes should be placed horizontally or extended in the shade, never in the sun
Never iron sports technical clothing.

Always follow the instructions on the label. If you have a question on how to care for your Raceskin tri suit, contact us today.
