Advance Wetsuit

Building upon these already lofty foundation blocks, the latest edition of the Advance takes another huge step forward. Most notably, it now features the world’s highest-performing YAMAMOTO neoprene rubber. Still maintaining its modest price tag, the Advance wetsuit is the perfect choice for beginner or intermediate swimmers looking for a comfortable and performance-focused wetsuit for training, racing or simply exploring the open water.  
10 different materials are used in the Advance wetsuit, to ensure maximum performance, comfort and durability whilst still maintaining a low price point.  And there are no nylon panels or external flatlock stitching, to prevent water entry and improve speed and comfort.

After winning the ‘Best on Test’ award, 220 Triathlon Magazine commented:
‘The Advance wouldn’t feel out of place against many of the mid-range products available at twice the price’ .‘A brilliant all-rounder that comes at a great price’.

Reviews

I like the feel of

"I like the feel of the wetsuit, it’s a lot more flexible than my previous cheaper more basic wetsuit and the oval comfort is great. I wasn’t sure if I needed it a bigger size since weighing 73 kg, 180 cm height and my chest circumference was 102 cm. I’ve contacted zone three who were very helpful, also looking at photographs and reassured me that this is the right size for me. I need help to close it, I had the same issue with a my previous wetsuit, but I assume that’s due to the snug fit, which will prevent excess water coming in."

— Frank M. (5/5)

Looks good, slightly expensive but

"Looks good, slightly expensive but not awful value. I would expect a slightly more durable product that has a better tailored fit for the cost. Overall I used it for my open water swim and it worked well. You will need to buy good chafe protection though because it can leave very painful rashes, especially on your neck. Repairs."

— Rory S. (4/5)

Good Product, upper body fits

"Good Product, upper body fits well, but the lower half of the wetsuit is a bit big form me. that said, it made it very easy to get on / off. Flexibility and warmth were both spot on."

Q&A

Is this wetsuit Fina approved?
Yes, our Advance wetsuit is FINA approved.
The breaststroke specific suit is out of stock in my size. Would I be able to comfortably swim that stroke in the suit if needed?
Our Advance wetsuit is designed to be predominantly used for front crawl stroke. As such, the panels within the legs are designed to provide sufficient buoyancy to support the position of the legs within this stroke. You may find this suit raises your leg position too high to be comfortable in breaststroke due to the need for the legs to sit much lower in the water.
