Good Fit, Good Value
By Just Me from Hampton, VA on 11/08/2009

Cons:
Not Enough Padding

Shorter triathlons

Competitive Cyclist

Feels true to length
Waist:
Feels true to size
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
Comments:
I have yet to use this in a shorter triathlon, but that is the intent. There is almost no padding, which would not be a major issue in shorter triathlons, but you might want a bit more padding for a longer triathlon. So this would be great for non-wetsuit swims and subsequent biking in half-Olympic distance road triathlons, or most distances of warm-weather off-road triathons I would imagine. Anything longer than that, I would prefer either more padding, or an additional seat pad, or both. This should speed up transition some, I would imagine, which is probably also more important in shorter triathlons. As for sizing, I had some worries about fit since only the size 4 remained when I ordered. I normally wear size 34 swim suit size and could even wear a 36 at this time. For regular clothing, I currently wear closest to a size 6. In any case, the size 4 fits me at least as well as a size 34 swim suit, which means a bit on the snug side, although I have to admit that my plan is to lose a bit of weight prior to my next triathlon, at least enough to be a more solid size 34 or 4.

Diving into a first tri - needed a tri-suit. The euro 12 fit me well - size 10. Legs not tight, fairly comfortable on the dry fit. Will have to try it in the water - but seems to be a good deal.

This is a great Tri suit. I am normally an 8-10 and the 6 fits perfect! You don't want it to be lose anywhere. It even seems to have enough support in the bra which is rare for me since I have a C cup. I like that it is all black since the open water swims are always in murky waters. There is very little padding in the rear, but wouldn't want a lot for the triathlon day.
