Zone3 – Men’s Lava Long Distance Trisuit – Black/White

When you commit to IM distance events and beyond, you need to know that your kit supplier is as committed as you are. Over those distances you will feel every imperfection, snap decision and cost saving that a brand has made. The multi award-winning Lava collection has been Zone3s endurance staple since it was launched in 2013 and we have continued researching and developing it ever since.

Now a fully fledged collection of male and female suits and separates, we have sourced the very best Italian and French materials to repel water, optimise aerodynamics and enhance comfort. Comfort is king during endurance events, the Lava suit has benefitted from significant upgrades to fabric used on the upper body to improve breathability, temperature control and freedom of movement.

What makes this product different:

• New AERO-STRIPE striped material on the arm sleeves for enhanced aerodynamics.
• Heat bonded arm sleeve for perfect finish and drag reduction.
• Premium woven fabrics with water repellent coating to ensure maximum performance and comfort throughout the race.
• Ergonomic panel design, fit and fabrics designed for temperature control.
• Extremely high quality, Tri Comp pad by Cytech. Crucial for IM distances.
• Premium integrated leg grippers, with gold fibres, for maximum comfort and support throughout the race.
• Large, functional pocket design for race day nutrition.

Key benefits include:

• Extremely breathable and sweat wicking for optimum temperature control.
• Incredibly lightweight and quick drying while still being durable and offering a 50+ UPF protection
• 360 stretch for total freedom of movement.
• A high-tech Nano water repellent coating reduces drag resistance in and out of the water. Improving your swim time, repelling sweat and keeping you drier and warmer if it rains.

Sensory: An extremely smooth and soft fabric that feels fantastic against the skin, it provides extra support and compression on the legs together with a full water repellent coating. The fabric is highly breathable and sweat wicking, while the 360 stretch ensures total freedom of movement.

Integrated leg grippers: Premium Italian design utilising natural gold fibres for improved comfort. This extended panel is bonded for optimum fit and drag resistance. The grippers keep the legs in place on the bike and run and without an extra seam seen on most Tri suits. This fabric is also highly breathable, moves moisture and is comfortable next to the body which allows a great fit.

PERFORMANCE:

1. Each fabric carefully chosen and positioned to improve performance, comfort and endurance.
2. Full front zip This feature allows the suits to be put on and taken off more easily and quickly. Crucial for making quick toilet breaks during a race; also allowing full torso ventilation during very warm conditions.
3. Balanced Compression is provided through the legs thanks to a carefully designed panel shape and the high denier rating of the Sensory fabric. This improves muscle support and helps to increase the blood flow away from the legs, therefore reducing the amount of lactic acid build up and helping to improve endurance and stamina.
4. Brand new Tri Comp Pad.
5. Heat Bonded Sleeves For optimum fit and comfort and reduced drag compared to stitching.
6. Comfort fit design throughout the body allowing you to maximise performance across the swim, bike and run.
7. Optical white colour used on the majority of the top to help reflect the suns heat.
8. Nutrition storage pockets: located on the back and designed with a heat bonded cover to allow gels to be stored and make it easy to access while on the bike or run.
9. Construction: Utilising heat bonding, flat-lock stitching and closed stitching to find the perfect balance between comfort and speed.
