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

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."

Advance wetsuit

"Love the fit and flexibility when out swimming"

— Michel O. (5/5)

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)

Actualización de neopreno

"Compré este neopreno para renovar el antiguo, lo mejor? La extremada facilidad para ponérselo, es espectacular. En seco y solo con la ayuda de una bolsa queda como un guante. Guía de tallaje correcta y la recomendación del modelo por parte de Zone3 ideal. Transporte rápido. En resumen 10 de 10 en producto y en atención y servicio"

Q&A

Hi. I am female, 183 cm tall and around 77 Kg. I am long limbed with a relatively short torso. Would large or XL be best for triathalon and longer distance swim?
Provided your chest measurement is comfortably within the range 94-99cm, we believe that the Large would offer you the most comfortable fit. If you need any further assistance with sizing please contact us at hello@zone3.com
Hi, Will this wetsuit be suitable for the current summer temperatures, and perhaps just see me through until say the end of September? I'm looking at Thermal Aspire for later on but I need something for the inbetween times if you see what I mean! Sarah
The Advance wetsuit will be suitable for most temperatures experienced during the main triathlon season, however, all swimmers will have an individual response to water temperature. Please contact our customer services team if you require more individual advice on your wetsuit selection.
What temperatures can this suit go down to (if that makes sense!)? I'm looking for something that will take me through winter open water. Will be adding gloves, socks, etc.
We would recommend looking at the Women's Thermal Aspire, currently on sale for £249.50. You can also go for the Advance model and add neoprene base layers during the cold season: neoprene swimming costume, neoprene kneeskin or warmth vest.
Bonjour, Cette combinaison est elle homologuée FINA ?
Hi! Yes, the Women's Advance wetsuit is FINA Approved.
Hi I am a UK dress size 14-16, 173cm tall. Which size shall I choose for WOMEN'S ADVANCE WETSUIT? Many thanks Ting
Hi Ting. If you can please provide us with your height, weight and chest measurements we will do our best to point you in the right direction. Regards, Adam
