Please note: Tech Suits are designed to fit extremely tight. If this is your first experience with a Tech Suit here are a few things to know.

Compression: What's that about? And what's it good for?

All technical suits offer some kind and quality of compression. Compression offers several advantages: increased circulation, assistance with recovery, and alignment. Suit panels target large muscle groups and aid blood flow. Compression supports body alignment and the shaping of the body to decrease drag.

Seams: Sew, what's the difference?

Getting rid of drag is every suit-makers goal. Flat stitching keeps the suit closer to the body. Ultrasonic and heat bonded seams make seams almost disappear. At certain key stress areas of the suit, designers will have some stitching to add strength, but you can barely see the stitching. Think of your tech suit as a second layer of skin.

Water  Repellent  Fabric: Is that legal?

Expect lightweight textiles that, though permeable, are water repellent. These have passed the guidelines set by FINA. The fabrics are described as hydrophobic since they scare water away, thus reducing drag. All tech suits have a combination of polyester, nylon, elastane, LYCRA™ and spandex. Recently fabrics with carbon fiber have been introduced to give more strength and structure to compression.

Longevity: How many races can I expect?

Swimmers will always ask, “How long will the suit last?” I have only seen one suit-maker even suggest an answer: up to 11 races. Some of you know the answer from experience, and I think suit-makers under-promise here. But there are ways to make your suit last.   We urge tech suit owners to take special care, and that means getting the chlorine out as soon as you can, and all the chlorine you can. Unless you have multiple races close together, avoid wearing it around during the meet like lounge wear. After use, put it in a sink of cool water for a few minutes, then lay it flat on a rack or towel to dry. Avoid hand-wringing and those well-intended suits spinning machines. These only speed the breakdown of the fabric.

Backs: Just for the ladies...

Suits come in closed-back and open-back styles. Straps are flat and wide for control and support. Some have elastic in the straps, some suits rely on the flexibility built into the whole suit to give the straps some stretch. But it's the whole suit that flexes for an efficient, snug, second-skin fit.

So, why are these suits so inexpensive compared to other Tech Suits?

I own a Scuba Shop in upstate New York. My son started swimming this past year his junior high school. Their team, along with several other area teams, put in an order with the local swim shop for training suits which they would also use in competition. The order never came in. I reached out to my HEAD scuba sales rep who put me in touch with the HEAD Swim product manager. Not only was I able to get suits for my son's team, we could acquire over 1,000 suits from the 2016 catalog at very attractive pricing. That's why we are selling the suits at such a sharp discount. 

Why all the warnings about suit sizing?

These suits have been listed for several months. I have noticed that customers fall into two categories - ones who have experience with Tech Suits and ones who are new to Tech Suits. For people who have experience, they normally write a nice review saying what a great deal they received. For inexperienced people, I normally receive a return request because they are not used to the extreme tightness of a tech suit. I have decided to lower the price of the suits and not offer returns. Please, for your sake and mine, please check the size chart before ordering.
