🏊 Pearl Izumi Men's Select Triathlon Suit Review

Performance, comfort, durability, price EVERYTHING IS EXCELLENT! The only reason I put a "4" and not a "5" is because of the size. I have found that different brands of jerseys fit differently. I'm 6'1", 190 lbs, 44" chest, 32" waist. Pretty average size. I ordered a large. The size is smaller (Medium) to ensure a perfect fit, especially after a swim (she sags a bit in some places while swimming and after getting out of the water).

Fit as expected. I bought this for my Key West Olympics (December races) where the water temp is a bit cooler compared to the rest of the Florida summer racing season. Worked great, I was "well" the whole race. Not sure how that would go with a wetsuit. Expect bracelet tops to wear with belts over time, but for the price, that's fine. The upholstery is fine, but I wouldn't want to drive more than 30 miles in it. If you are an aspiring athlete on a budget this is a great suit.

Bought this suit for my first triathlon. I spent some time in it before race day and was very happy with its performance during my race. The suit was light and comfortable to wear, dried very quickly after the swim and stayed dry throughout the race. The seat pad was small and took some getting used to (it's less padded than even a pair of shorts), but that's not a complaint, just an observation. I also had some chafing between my legs at the end of the day, but that was due to my legs rubbing…
