Go The Distance
When you commit to IM distance events and beyond, you need to know that your kit supplier is as committed as you are. Over those distances you will feel every imperfection, snap decision and cost saving that a brand has made.
The multi award-winning ZONE3 Women's Lava Long Distance Short Sleeve Trisuit has been an endurance staple since it was launched in 2013 and they have continued researching and developing it ever since. Now a fully-fledged collection of suits and separates, they source the very best Italian and French materials to repel water, optimize aerodynamics and enhance comfort.
Tested in the velodrome and approved internationally by elite athletes in 2019, the Lava suit combines advanced aerodynamic panels, with water repellent coatings and drag resistant finishing.
The suit offers all over comfort combined with performance during all three disciplines. If you're taking on a long-distance race this season, this will be the perfect suit.
Features:
- AERO-STRIPE: An innovative striped material from Italy located on the raglan sleeves and upper back to improve aerodynamics. This UPF-50 textured material creates turbulence across key boundary layers during high speeds on the bike, reducing drag and improving race times.
- Aeroforce Soft-Touch: A revolutionary French woven fabric used on the main front and back panels, offering extreme comfort and advanced technical benefits. It is one of the most expensive performance fabrics on the market, but its benefits justify the cost.
- Extremely breathable and sweat-wicking for optimum temperature control.
- Incredibly lightweight and quick drying while still being durable and offering a 50+ UPF protection.
- 360° stretch for total freedom of movement.
- A high-tech Nano water repellent coating reduces drag resistance in and out of the water, improves swim times, repels sweat, and keeps you drier and warmer in rainy conditions.
- Sensory: A smooth and soft fabric that feels fantastic against the skin, providing extra support and compression on the legs with a full water-repellent coating. Highly breathable and sweat-wicking, while the 360º stretch ensures total freedom of movement.
- Integrated leg grippers: Premium Italian design utilizing natural gold fibers for improved comfort. This extended panel is bonded for an optimal fit and drag resistance. The grippers keep the legs in place during the bike and run without an extra seam found on most Tri suits. Highly breathable fabric moves moisture efficiently and ensures a great fit.
- Each fabric is carefully chosen and positioned to improve performance, comfort, and endurance.
- Balanced Compression through the legs thanks to a carefully designed panel shape and high denier rating of the Sensory fabric. This improves muscle support, increases blood flow, reduces lactic acid buildup, and enhances endurance and stamina.
