FAQs

Is this suit suitable for all triathlon distances?

Yes, the Aeron Short Sleeve Tri Suit is designed for multi-sport use and is suitable for sprint, Olympic, half-Ironman, and full Ironman distances, offering comfort and performance across various durations.

How do I care for my tri suit to ensure its longevity?

Machine wash your tri suit at 30°C with mild detergent and similar colors. Do not tumble dry, bleach, or iron. Allow it to air dry away from direct sunlight.

What is the benefit of the short sleeves?

The set-in short sleeves are designed to improve aerodynamics by reducing drag on the bike and run, while also providing some sun protection for the shoulders.

How does the chamois perform during swimming and running?

The Elastic Interface® Super-Tri S chamois is specifically designed for multi-sport athletes. It's thin, flexible, and quick-drying, providing comfort on the bike without being bulky or intrusive during the swim or run.

What is the purpose of the raw-cut leg hem?

The raw-cut leg hem with an integrated silicone gripper ensures the suit stays securely in place without riding up, providing a clean, comfortable, and stable fit.

Can I wear this for training as well as racing?

Absolutely. While designed for racing, the suit's durable construction, compression, and comfort features also make it ideal for high-intensity training sessions.

What material is the suit made of?

The suit is constructed from a blend of polyamide and elastane for the main fabric, with contrast panels using polyester and elastane blends, optimized for performance, compression, and quick-drying properties.

Troubleshooting

Suit feels too tight or restrictive

Ensure you have selected the correct size. Refer to the sizing guide and consider trying a different size if discomfort persists. Proper fit is crucial for performance and comfort.

Chafing from leg hem or seams

Confirm the leg hem's silicone gripper is sitting correctly on the thigh. Ensure the suit is the right size; a suit that is too loose can cause friction. A thin layer of chamois cream can also help prevent chafing in sensitive areas.

Chamois feels uncomfortable during long rides

The Elastic Interface® Super-Tri S chamois is designed for rides up to 6 hours. Ensure the suit is correctly positioned. For prolonged comfort, especially on the bike, consider using a chamois cream. If the discomfort is significant, the fit might not be optimal for your body shape.

Fabric losing compression or elasticity

Follow the care instructions precisely: machine wash cold at 30°C and do not tumble dry. Avoid using bleach, fabric softeners, or high heat, as these can degrade the technical fabrics.
