Some well-timed wetsuit care could be the difference between your suit lasting one season and several years, depending on how regularly you use it.
For the wetsuit to consistently perform at its very best, it needs to be looked after properly. Here, we share our top tips for swimming and triathlon wetsuit care including advice on washing, drying, storage and more.
Putting on a triathlon wetsuit correctly is vital if you want to get the most out of your suit in the water. Too many swimmers rush the process and it comes back to haunt them, either in the water or the bank account!
