What Sets This Product Apart:

- Crafted using Yamamoto materials for a lighter, more flexible suit, optimizing comfort and performance.
Product Description:
The ZONE3 Evolution suit is the result of a collaborative effort with a past race champion in Sweden and three other accomplished Swedish multi-sport athletes. It encompasses every facet, from flexibility and comfort to buoyancy and functionality.
This versatile suit is tailored for both swimming and running, eliminating the need for outfit changes. Each suit is equipped with 8mm-thick calf sleeves, a compass, and a whistle.
The wetsuit merges the qualities of a well-fitted swim wetsuit with the advantages of high-stretch leg panels for running, complemented by a front zip for enhanced lung expansion and breathability while on the run. The suit's innovation has earned it a nomination for the 'Game Changer of the Year' award, presented by 220 Triathlon magazine.
Key Features Include:
- Yamamoto materials are employed throughout, except for the lower leg panel, which provides low drag, flexibility, warmth, and buoyancy. The aqua dynamic 'SCS' Nano coating applied to the neoprene virtually eliminates water resistance, boasting a drag coefficient of just 0.021 compared to the 4.0 of regular neoprene wetsuits. This coating also prevents water absorption, thus averting excess weight in the wetsuit.
- The Yamamoto material offers exceptional flexibility and comfort, expanding up to 7 times more than conventional wetsuit materials. It provides enhanced buoyancy, warmth, and eco-friendliness due to its limestone-based neoprene composition.
- Highly flexible 1.5mm SCS shoulders and arm panels for maximum freedom of movement are complemented by 5mm metallic blue Yamamoto #39 SCS back and side panels, offering upper body buoyancy, warmth, and visibility.
- 2mm front and back leg sections with a high-stretch lining are designed for unhindered running and reduced chafing. Additional lower leg buoyancy during the swim is aided by the 8mm calf sleeves and compatibility with accessories such as pull buoys.
- An integrated silicone band located just above the elbow can be cut if needed, allowing the sleeves to be worn during the swim and easily removed for the run.
- Two internal front pockets and one large external back pocket are perfectly positioned for SwimRun essentials, fine-tuned over the past three years.
- Enhanced durability on rugged terrain is provided by a high-wear backside panel.
- The front zip, complete with a cord, facilitates easy access and offers breathability and temperature control during the run.
- Pro-Speed silicone-coated arm cuffs expedite suit removal.
- Vibrant colours enhance visibility.
- 8mm-thick calf sleeves significantly enhance buoyancy support during the swim.
