Review on Sparx X Men's Racing Triathlon Suit: Tri Cycling Skin Suit for Bike, Swim, Run by Zach Peterson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Fits like a glove, great price, used for olympic triathlon.

(Additional update after full race) Ordered medium red suit Height - 5ft 10.5in Weight - 165lbs Overall athletic build To be honest, for the price you probably won't find anything better, especially if you're just starting out do yourself a favor and give it a try. I wore it today in a trial triathlon at my gym (1km swim, 26km bike, 6.7km run. About 2/3 Olympic) with no problems and this is the first time I've had one like this suit worn. Fits perfectly, seriously, no complaints. It's a bit weird not to wear underwear during a workout, but it's not a bad thing (the black part of the suit rises high enough and you don't have to worry about it being visible in the crowd. The bulges are there, but There's nothing you can do about it.) Rinse it off with hot water before use as I've heard that colors can bleed and I had no problem (if using chlorine be sure to soak it in a small amount of water fresh water when you're done) I was worried that the bags on it would create an extra doctor. ag in the water but honestly if it were I wouldn't notice it which was a huge relief. Actually I felt very fast in the pool. The pockets on the back are perfect for everything you could want. Elasticated legs keep the suit in place. The fabric protects the zipper, so no corners and edges. I will end with a note on body awareness. To be honest, triathlon suits leave very little to the imagination, so you know what's included. I mentioned that the black goes far enough that there is no see-through problem. Remember, you don't have to wear a triathlon suit, make sure you wear what you're comfortable in. At the same time you are a triathlete. Be proud no matter what you look like, you are doing something amazing and if you want to wear a tri suit, DO IT!
