Xterra Wetsuits Vortex 3 Sleeveless Wetsuit - Men's
Sure, triathlons are hard, and your wetsuit isn't going to change that, but it can make things a little bit easier. The Xterra Vortex 3 Men's Sleeveless Wetsuit doesn't pretend that it will cut your swim time in half, make you better looking, or let you get away with training half as hard, but it does offer you buoyancy, flexibility, and comfort during training swims and races, all without blowing away your budget.
Buoyancy is important because it reduces effort and drag by allowing you to swim higher in the water, making each stroke and kick more efficient. The Vortex 3 features thick 5mm neoprene on the front, which raises your torso out of the water to reduce resistance, and 3mm Super GKA neoprene on the back, which provides ample stretch for easy swimming without constriction. The entire suit is lined with X-Flex (most mid-level suits only have a stretchy liner in the arms) to provide consistent and generous stretch from neck to ankles, and the exterior of the Xterra is treated with X-Slice, a slick coating that reduces drag and lets you cut smoothly through the water.
Sleeves can reduce a suit's flexibility, so the Vortex 3 does away with them altogether. It does sport a low-profile hydrodynamic collar that won't chafe, and the sturdy back zipper has a long lanyard and is supplemented with an adjustable hook-and-loop neck closure for a secure and comfortable fit. A zipper protector flap inside the suit protects your back from irritation, and X-MAX Seam Seal technology uses a triple layer of glue and double-blind stitching to achieve durable and waterproof construction.
