Synergy Triathlon Wetsuit 3/2mm - Volution Sleeveless Quick John Smoothskin Neoprene for Open Water Swimming Ironman & USAT Approved

I highly recommend it. 👌

Update:Ran my first Tri in this over the weekend, and getting out of this suit was a breeze since it doesn't have long legs. This suit was perfect for 60 water, it could likely go even colder.--------------------------------5 stars for now, but time will tell.I’m 6 foot 230 with a long torso, and this L2 fits me great. I have used it for one open water swim in prep for the triathlon. My arms got used to the cold, and it was worth not having the extra strain on my arms a full set suit gives. I will update if it lets me down this summer.

Soft and size matches however worried about how fragile the material is, needs to be handled delicately, not sure how that’s possible in a competitive race and get out without tears.

Fits but a bit tight

This is a well made suit from quality materials and excellent neoprene. The size guide is not accurate. These suits run small so go at least one size larger. I am 6 feet tall and weigh 207 pounds. The size guide would suggest a size L1 or L2 but I actually bought a size L3. I'm probably between the 2 sizes (L2 and L3) but I have a larger athletic upper body and swimmers shoulders so the suit was too tight at the arm holes. I ordered all 3 sizes and was able to return the L1 and L2 with no trouble (don't remove tags or get the suit wet). This suit goes with me every day to swim laps.

I tired it out today in Carpinteria CA. Water was maybe a bit over 60F. I am 5-9, weigh c 145#. Bought S 3 size. It was hard to put it on, which is typical. I even spent a few minutes stretching it with my hands, for what that might be worth. It was especially tight around my pencil neck and I briefly thought of Jeffrey Epstein. I also had trouble getting the Velcro to stick because, duh, I didn't take off the little Velcro patch intended to keep it from sticking unintentionally before use. Once in the water, I was SO pleased with no cold water leaks, slick and fast in the water, completely comfortable once under way. I like it so much, I just bought the Synergy wet suit sleeves. Wish I had them on today as I go mildly shore pounded into the rocks the bulldozers recently unearthed to protect property from winter surf.

After 1 use of this brand new suit, it ripped at the seam around the hip area. It was not too small and fit like a tri-wetsuit should. Synergy doesn’t seem to be standing by their product and are fighting back my refund. Disappointed with the product AND service of the brand.

Stitching separated on mine in the groin, this made for an interesting day on the water and luckily I had some swim trunks to hold what was falling out in. Will attempt a repair but lost a lot of confidence in the seams on this one. Leg baffle also tore off on one side right at the stitching.
