Where can I get a Nike trisuit?

I have been riding in a Nike trisuit I picked up at my LBS. I assume it’s a nike suit. There aren’t any tags in it but it does have the swoosh on it. I don’t want to wear it in an event because it’s splashed with all kinds of sponsor logos. Trek (i ride a cervelo), volkswagon, etc. And I’m definitely not sponsor material. I’d feel strange in it. Come to think of it maybe the swoosh is a sponsor symbol as well. Anywhere on the web I can view some Nike trisuits?

They do not make triathlon clothing. Don’t assume that what you have is a Nike triathlon suit anymore than it’s a VW suit - since VW also has it’s logo on it.

I’ve since looked at the suit, since I first posted. And it indeed has “NIKE” and the swoosh symbol on the back of the interior collar. Labeled as any manufacturer would lable their suit. Are you telling me this is not a product of Nike and that they rebranded the interior of the suit? I don’t think that’s the case. It is a Nike suit.

They don’t make them for resale. They do in fact make trisuits, but only for sponsored athletes. That being said, just because it has the logo, it doesn’t mean it is in fact Nike, as some of the Nike guys do wear other trisuits and just put the logo on, i.e. I believe Louis Garneau made the TriDubai uniforms last year, but Cam Brown’s still had a Nike logo on it… But, to answer your original question - you can’t. eBay would be the only place you might be able to find one. If you want a really nice, not-too-common trisuit, check out Kiwami.

Thanks. So would it be safe to assume that any Nike tri suits coming off of ebay are going to be loaded with sponsors as well? I may just have to bite the bullet and Pose. Nice Kiwami stuff as well. Thanks for that rec.

Yup. They primarily sponsor ITU athletes as well, so it’s likely that you’ll also have some other dudes name across your butt as well…

Hey - can one purchase a Kiwami suit in the states? From the website, doesn’t look like it!!

Thanks

They have a $USD symbol on their page that transfers amounts so I assume they’ll ship to the US. It’s in the little box where the Euro cost is.

Yup, $22 to ship to the US.
