How Should a Triathlon Wetsuit Fit?

How Should a Triathlon Wetsuit Fit?

Triathlon Wetsuit fitting depends on your body shape and the height of the person who has to wear it. if it is tight it won't support the body movement and the person who is wearing it will be exhausted and tired. if it is loose the water will get into it and it will reduce the body heat also the body may feel heavy by the weight of water. If you're new to triathlon, finding the right wetsuit is important.

A swimming wetsuit should be tight on land but loosen up in the water to provide the optimal fit. Between your body and the inside of the suit, there should be a thin layer of water that will warm you up and keep your body temperature balanced.

The Five points below could help you to get a good fit wetsuit.

• Your shoulders should move comfortably and freely.
  
  
• There should not be an additional fold around your body, chest crotch, or armpits small of your back.
  
  
• You can set the fabric into your crotch and your armpits easily by carefully pushing the fabric.
  
  
• Most manufacturers offer cloth gloves along with swimsuits to set the fabric into place without damaging the fabric.
  
  
• It should not be too tight around your neckline. Make sure it lets you breathe standing or while swimming.
  
  
• make sure that is stretchable enough as you need to move your body constantly while swimming.
  
  
• if you have a big neck, search for the brands that make a lower-cut collar.
  
  
• It should not be too long in the sleeve or leg.
  
  

The key to getting good-fit triathlon wetsuits is to buy the right sizing for your body type. Remember, only consider wetsuits made for triathlons. There are lots of very affordable wetsuits that are for snorkelling and surfing. Do not purchase these, they will not support the body motion you need for a triathlon race. It can be tempting to save money, but it is not worth it.

Wetsuit Sizing

All manufacturers will show their size charts. If you are shopping online then look at their sizing charts that give you sizes, body shape, and height. Unlike general clothing sizes, the wetsuit sizing is very detailed. If you are sceptical, you need to reach their customer care and get help to understand their sizing charts. Triathlon wetsuit men have different sizes and for women, the sizes are different according to their body shapes and heights.

Fitting instructions for wetsuits

A wetsuit's sole purpose is to keep a very thin layer of water close to your body. That means the wetsuit will be extremely tight, which might be uncomfortable for some people. A wetsuit is the only article of triathlon clothing that is designed to fit as snugly as a wetsuit or If you are confused between two sizes, consider a tight race fit for your body. A triathlon wetsuit needs to be slung but not too tight! If you are new to wetsuits, size up a little more for a comfortable fit.

• If you are broad, we suggest adding 10 lbs to your weight to adjust as this is more likely to take you to the next size up.
  
  
• If you have a big torso add two inches to your height. For a short torso deduct 2 inches from your height.
  
  
• You can't truly trim the collar without causing damage to the wetsuit or its fit. Make sure it's not too claustrophobic. It's important to remember that the collar will extend with time.
