Hey all, other than SkinFit { kinda outta my price range } whats the best one-piece suit out there? Thanks.
We here use the Ironman Active Wear one… and believe me… we ALWAYS look for the best (price) ![]()
I like TYR, fits nice, good quality, not very expensive ~$70
.
Like you pay for the dud’s you race in…puleeze…
Zoot and DeSoto both make great off the shelf one piece outfits. The only difference is that Zoot has a shorter leg than DeSoto, but I heard for 2006 Zoot will have two leg lenth options.
Or better yet, you can join the Mad Cow Triathlon team <www.MadCowsRacing.com> and wear one of their great one peice uniforms made by Castelli-Squadra (the same company that makes custom outfits for Team Aegis, Michelie Jones, Jamie Whitmore, Peter Reid, etc…)

Check out www.oomphsports.com I just got on of their “Classic Speedsuits”. I haven’t raced in it, but I have tried it indoors running & biking. It works better than anything else I have owned in terms of fit, chamois & wicking. Most importantly the blue/orange matches my bike ![]()
I though Peter & Michellie raced in “Reebok Hollofiber.” ![]()
To the original poster: Orca makes great suits. The “race” range is quite reasonable. Zoot stuff is also really nice. While I have not used it, the fabrics and pads on the Skinfit stuff is first rate. Oomph fabrics and pads are also very nice.
The good suits last a long time, and it is worth the extra money in my opinion.
