Race Suit Skirts
Anyone who has wrestled a tech suit onto wet skin in a crowded change room before a race knows the struggle. Race suit skirts solve that problem. Made from smooth satin fabric, they give your competition suit a low-friction surface to slide over, making it significantly easier and faster to get your tech suit on — whether you're transitioning from training togs at a carnival or suiting up before a big race.
Why Use a Suit Skirt?
Tech suits are designed to compress and support, which means they grip skin tightly by design. That's great for performance in the water, but it makes getting them on a real challenge — especially when you're in a hurry. A satin suit skirt worn underneath acts as a slip layer, reducing the friction between the suit and your skin so the suit glides on smoothly rather than bunching and dragging. The result is less time in the change room, less wear on your forearms, and less risk of damaging an expensive race suit by forcing it on incorrectly.
