I would like to buy a good quality triathlon wetsuit, and I currently live outside Burlington, VT. I know of one store here that has one (or maybe two) brands, but I really want to try several different suits before investing in one. My parents live near Boston, so I don’t mind heading down to that area to find places, but when I search for Boston Triathlon store, or something like that, in Google, I can’t find much to go on; I would much rather hear from people who live/have lived in the area and can recommend someplace that won’t rip me off.
Thanks!
De Soto has dealers in Arlington and Newton. Definitely on the right track getting the suit that fits!
FastSplits in Newton has a good selection of wetsuits, Wheelworks in Belmont and Fitwerx in Peaobody also sell them.
The only Tri shop I know of in Boston is Fast Splits. http://www.fastsplits.com/ They have a wide selection of wet suits.
you can check out wetsuits at:
Fast Splits - Newton
Quad Tri - Arlington
Cycle Loft - Burlington
Wheelworks - Belmont
Landry’s - Boston
…and there may be some others I am forgetting. All are w/ in 20 min of Downtown Boston, but it’d take some coordinating to hit them all in a day. I am not sure what brands they are carrying this year, but there are a few good shops on the internet with generous return policies.
Good luck.
Great, thanks for all the tips! I think Fastsplits will be first on my list.
