Women's Neoprene Triathlon Wetsuit SD

Why is the zipper on this trifunction suit inverted?

We chose an inverted zipper so it's easy get out of your trifunction suit for your 1st transition. Easy to take off with a natural upward movement.

The inverted direction also prevents your zipper being "unintentionally" opened by other competitors during the swim phase.

Why wear a neoprene suit for a triathlon?

Depending on the water temperature, wearing a neoprene suit for a triathlon is:

- Compulsory if the water temperature is below 61°F

- Authorized if the water temperature is between 61 and 75°F

- Banned if the water temperature is equal to or over 72°F

Is there any point in wearing my neoprene suit if it's not obligatory?

Yes, yes and yes! A neoprene suit provides more buoyancy and helps you glide, as well as keeping you warm.

Depending on your swimming level, you can generally expect to reduce your time by between 1 min 30 and 3 minutes over a distance of 0.6 miles.

So it will be a precious help even over short distances!

How to choose the right size of suit

It's just as important to choose the right size of neoprene suit as it is too choose the right model.

The neoprene suit should be worn just like a second skin without feeling oppressive, and should provide you with freedom of movement.

We designed this Aptonia SD suit with slightly shortened cuffs to make it easier to take off.
