Choosing the Best Triathlon Wetsuit
For first-time swim shoppers having an idea of the features to give attention will help you in buying as an informed buyer as well anticipate satisfaction.

The Material
One of the important features to look out for is the material type of the wetsuit as you would have noticed the emphasis in material identification in the article. Triathlon wetsuits come in various material and are all wonderful, these different materials are also used at different points and layers on each wetsuit.

But what to discreetly give attention in the material consideration is how flexible and insulated the wear is, you should be able to stick with the material type compatible with your skills and needs. Wetsuits can be made of neoprene, lycra, nylon or polyester material. Now let’s take a look at each material.

Neoprene
The insulated neoprene. Now, you have a background knowledge of material, what is next is how the perform. Insulated neoprene are lightly flexible and less thick too but offers maximum stretching you will find useful and that is the reason behind its high demand.

They usually come in many panels that contains bubble-like air pockets that permeates evenly into the body heat and come out with an additional layer of insulation. However, insulated neoprene are a bit pricy but its advantages still make it most desirable.

The Laminated neoprene. This is one of the most common and popular types partly because of its affordability. It stretches too but not as expansive as the insulated neoprene, and they are made with standard rubber which is later combined with nylon and polyester. Once laid on each other, the layers are laminated into wetsuits to supply added sturdiness but it may reduce flexibility.

Skin neoprene. This type does not share any likeness with the two earlier discussed rather, its major concern is ensuring you have a good swimming experience. The hydrophobic material or the glide neoprene is a water repellant material and the benefit here is that it allows you to swim faster. The exterior surface of this type of wetsuit is often with different types of material that will hinder water absorption too. For flexibility, the skin neoprene is more flexible than the laminated neoprene but not as much as insulated neoprene.

Lycra
Before the popularity and demand for neoprene, lycra and spandex were the king of wetsuit materials owing to its unrivaled stretching ability which helps in comfort and its affordability too. they are a tight fit always but helps the swimmer to glide evenly through the water. However, the shift in attention to neoprene, lycra is still a beauty to flexibility and comfort in wetsuits.

Nylon
This is a supportive material in wetsuits, you will often find It used with polyester or spandex. Manufacturers have their preference for nylon because it appears stronger than polyester though they are similar in many ways. But when it comes to water level repellency, nylon does nit offer enough resistant like the polyester. For this reasons, manufacturers tend to use the nylon for interior lining often than for an outer fabric.

Polyester
Slightly different from nylon and also used as a secondary material in the making oif wetsuits. It is used in laminated fabrics to support durability and it also resist water. In the insulated material, the polyester serves as an additional insulator and also aids easy wearing of the wetsuit.

Look out for the Seams Too
Apart from the materials used in wetsuits other considerations like the seams should be looked at. The seams help to enhance the quality of the material, how firm and tight the watertight of the wetsuit is dependent on the seams.

Paneling
Paneling helps to enhance breathing, as well as good transition. Seeing them on the shoulders, chest, and thighs are necessary for that. So, looking out for wetsuits that come with paneling are wise purchases.

The Zipper Panels
Zippers are must have for wetsuits, they are necessary for easy removal and wear. And they come in reverse zipper, floating zip, breakaway zippers.

Thickness
The thickness comes in varieties like the 1.5mm, 3mm, 4mm, and 5mm which is the maximum thickness for a wetsuit. It is the thickness that helps buoyancy and flexibility and they often different levels of buoyancy and sometimes come combined.

Range of Motion
You would have seen some brands being emphasized as full range motion, what this means is having the appropriate range of motion for the hips and the shoulders. And this helps you to have a natural swimming position.

Full Sleeves and Sleeveless
Your choice for either the sleeves depends on your physical needs and comfort. While the full sleeves allow for a sturdy feeling and flexibility, the sleeveless equally helps in flexibility and a less-chafe swimming experience.

Why invest in a Triathlon wetsuit?

One important piece of triathlon gear is a triathlon wetsuit. This is because it not only offers speed and comfort but it also protects triathletes from cold open waters. The best triathlon wetsuits help maintain warm body temperatures, which is essential, especially if you are swimming in open water. Wetsuits with an SCS coating provide buoyancy and reduce drag through the water. This also helps accelerate swim speed. The material used in triathlon wetsuits (usually neoprene) also helps in comfortable leg movement while swimming.

How to select the perfect Triathlon wetsuit?

Fit – The most important point that needs to be kept in mind when selecting a Triathlon wetsuit is the fit. A loose fitting wetsuit will have you carrying more water while you swim, which will in turn slow you down. Look for a good fit and seal around your neck and wrist so that the water does not enter the suit. It’s always a good idea to speak to a wetsuit specialist who has vast knowledge about various brands of wetsuits, their sizing charts, how each wetsuit brand is cut and how to ensure a proper fit for your specific body type and skill.

Material and Thickness – Most good Triathlon wetsuits are made with closed cell neoprene. The thickness of the material varies and can range from 1.5mm-5mm. Anything thicker than 5 mm is not legal for most triathlon races. Look for suits that offer thin and flexible material around shoulders and arms for quick movements. Usually, the material around the chest and legs is thicker which helps in staying afloat in water.

Comfort

It is essential that you feel comfortable in your wetsuit. Many feel suffocated and uncomfortable in a tight-fitting wetsuit. It can also make you feel restricted. However also remember that wetsuits must fit like a glove on your body. Loose wetsuits may cause more significant chafing and will not work properly to keep you warm, nor will they give you any speed advantage because you will be dragging the extra water filling your wetsuit with you. Most people will agree you are never really “comfortable” in a wetsuit, but you also don’t want to feel restricted inn either your arm movements or your breathing.

Important features that you should consider before buying a Triathlon wetsuit

Overall wetsuits are designed to make a person more hydrodynamic in the water – reducing the drag while swimming – thereby helping you swim faster. However the overall design, material used, paneling etc. can help you cut some time and get that marginal advantage in the race.

While there are a lot of triathlon brands that offer a wide range of wetsuits in various budgets, as a general rule of thumb, the costlier wetsuits usually offer more flexibility and buoyancy.

Material – Most triathlon wetsuits are made from Yamamoto rubber. This material is extremely flexible and offers buyouncy. A good majority of wetsuits also have an SCS coating to provide water resistance.

Thickness – In general the thickness of the material is between 1.5mm to 5mm. The thickness is higher around chest area and thin around arms and shoulders to offer greater flexibility. The thicker the material, the more buoyancy and warmth you get from it.

Paneling – Triathlon wetsuits have undergone a lot of innovation that helps in ease of breathing, better strokes and smooth transition. Such panels are usually around the shoulder and arms, chest and thighs.

The zipper- As speed is an important factor in triathlons, a variety of zippers like breakaway zippers, reverse zippers, floating zip panel, etc. have been invented for quick removal during triathlon transitions.
