Review for Blue Seventy Men’s Thermal Reaction Full Sleeve Wetsuit – 2019

UPGRADED FOR FRIGID CONDITIONSThe reception for our original thermal suit far exceeded our expectations. We immediately heard from a growing market of eager open water swimmers who praised us for extending their outdoor swimming season. The THERMAL Reaction is our response to deliver this option to more swimmers. It is crafted on the same platform as its warm water twin, but fully lined with our mid-weight zirconium jersey for enhanced protection in frigid temperatures. This unique liner dries fast, minimizes weight and offers excellent flex. Built with a high-grade traditional YKK zipper for easy in and out, proven RST panels, SCS coating, triple glued seams, blind stitched and internally taped high stress areas – the only thing left to do is hook your key on the loop and jump in. MADE FOR COLD WATER – Full internal zirconium jersey reduces water absorption and protects against heat loss. Paired with our neoprene accessories the THERMAL Reaction is rated down to 48°F / 9°C while a standard full suit for swimming is typically good to 54°F / 12°C. LOWERED COLLAR – Over twenty years of wetsuit design experience has made our traditional zipper an industry standard. Our curved closure flap reduces rear collar height, improving comfort and reducing chafing. Also features an easy-access key loop. VO2 CHEST PANEL – A central split chest panel allows greater chest expansion and unimpeded breathing. AQUA SEAL – The 4-way stretch fabric in our silicone cuffs seal the wrists from unwelcome water entry, without catching when removing the suit. REACTIVE STRETCH TECHNOLOGY (RST) – Upgraded to silver premium Yamamoto #39 cell rubber, the RST panels improve arm mobility, reach and propulsion. S-FLEX – 2mm thin side panels improve fit and body rotation in the water without sacrificing buoyancy. BUOYANCY + – The THERMAL Reaction features a 4-5-4 panel design centralizing core buoyancy to raise the position of the hips in relation to the rest of the body. Two 4mm chest panels accent natural lung buoyancy to optimize upper body position relative to the legs. 5mm neoprene supports the hips and lower torso, lifting the body in the water, reducing drag and improving speed. 4mm panels in the lower legs ensure a more efficient kick by keeping the legs on the surface of the water.

Review for Zone3 Men’s Aspire Wetsuit – 2019

Year on year the Aspire wetsuit builds on it’s world renowned reputation. It continues to collect accolades from the Triathlon industry, having scored an impressive 10 out of 10 rating in both Triathlete Europe and 220 Magazine in its early years and more recently a 95% rating and the prestigious BEST BUY award. The Aspire is constantly given praise for its great fit, remarkable flexibility around the shoulders, carefully balanced buoyancy and rapid removal. Further research and development has been conducted over the last two years which have resulted in an updated version of the Aspire. The core features which have made the Aspire so popular are still integrated and new features have been added to improve performance and comfort further. Improved Flexibility – A new integrated one-piece shoulder and chest panel design increases the total area of 1.5mm Yamamoto SCS material. This increases the 360 degree stretch across the torso, results in a better fit around the shoulders and chest and also increases the flexibility and distance achieved with each stroke. Therefore helping to conserve energy, swim faster and improve endurance. Improved Buoyancy – The Aspire has become more buoyant than ever before. Aerodome materials have been added on the leg side panels and hips to help support the core leg muscles further. This material is designed with air bubbles built between the fabric layers to make it lighter and more buoyant, producing up to 30% more buoyancy than conventional neoprene. This is combined with the existing 5mm thickness on the front of the legs and lower torso. Improved Comfort – A new laser cut collar is included in the new version which allows a tighter fit without any feeling of discomfort around the neck.The Aspire is packed with other features to promote the fastest and most energy efficient swim possible. Premium SCS #39 Yamamoto fabrics designed to ensure superb all-over body flexibility, comfort and performance. Zone3 worked on new developments with Yamamoto as a chosen supplier because then eoprene offers fantastic performance features. Speed: The aqua dynamic ‘SCS’ Nanocoating applied to the neoprene creates almost zero drag through the water. A drag coefficient of just 0.021 compared with 4.0 for regular neoprene wetsuits. The SCS coating also prevents the suit from absorbing water, therefore avoiding excess weight in the wetsuit. Flexibility: A massive 480-580% in elongation, compared with human skin (under arm) which is just 60-70%. Superior flexibility and comfort with an expansion of 7 x conventional wetsuit materials. Buoyancy: Derived from limestone rather than oil which offers a 23% higher closed-cell structure. This significantly increasing the buoyancy levels for the swimmer. Warmth: High heat retention: Keeping the body warmer in colder waters to help reduce body fatigue and improve performance. Eco: The neoprene is also derived from limestone opposed to petroleum which is more environmentally friendly. Extensive research and development on panel design and fabric thickness ensures this is one of the most natural feeling wetsuits you’ll swim in. Maximum 5mm neoprene allowed under ITU regulations from the ribs down to the knees, giving plenty of buoyancy and core support to ensure the perfect swimming angle. A higher stretch 4mm chest panel aids in course sighting during the swim navigation, keeps up core body warmth and allows chest expansion during heavy breathing. Pro Speed Cuffs on the arms and the legs for rapid removal after the swim to ensure the quickest transitions, saving you vital time on any course. Premium inner linings are used which further add to the comfort and flexibility of the suit. Downwards YKK zip to enable the suit to go on and off easily. A combination of Zone3’s recognized red cuffs for improved visibility and the graphite side and arm panels gives the Aspire a distinguished and premium style. The Aspire is the perfect suit for the beginner athlete, all the way to the pro athlete,and as such has been offering a fantastic swimming experience to all of those who have chosen this suit since its conception. As the reviews say,”Swimming in the Aspire is every bit as comfortable and energy efficient as swimming in suits costing twice as much.”If you have any doubts, ask anybody who has swam in the Aspire to help explain what makes this suit stand out from the rest.
