Arena ST NEXT - The First Ever FINA-approved Race Suit Made From Recycled Fabric
- 8 Sep 2023
The next generation has never been greater! Arena have released the first ever FINA-approved race suit made with recycled fabric.
Arena ST NEXT is made from ECONYL®, a high-quality 100% regenerated nylon yarn manufactured using pre- and post-consumer waste, such as fishing nets and other nylon waste.
By supporting Healthy Seas, arena contributes to the recovery of discarded fishing nets from the sea which, together with other nylon waste such as carpet flooring and industrial plastic, are transformed (the ones suitable for recycling) by Aquafil into ECONYL® yarn.
60% of the yarns in the fabric composition were sourced from pre and post-consumer waster that would otherwise end up in a landfill! Along with the improved fabric construction that makes the ST NEXT 20% lighter, the reinforced shoulder straps and enhanced fabric elasticity ensure that the ST next is both comfortable and compressive.
High Performance For All
Enhanced core support, body lift, and stability help swimmers maintain optimum form in the water. From beginners to world class champions, the POWERSKIN ST NEXT performs powerfully for athletes of every level at an incredible value.
Superior Support and Compression
Additional lining brings technical improvements to the ST range. Incorporated in to the top front of both the open back and jammer and extending down the back of the leg, the new lining provides greater muscle compression in targeted areas.
Reinforced Shoulder Strap
The ST NEXT’s shoulder structure features a new design with extra reinforcement in the center strap. Bolstered by the shell fabric and durable lining, the shoulder strap provides greater support in the shoulders and upper back, enhances the overall fit and feel of the suit, and adds an extra level of durability.
Easy On and Off
The upgraded fabric of ST NEXT has improved elasticity, which makes it easier and quicker to get on and off than other racing suits, while still providing good, targeted compression.
