TN10 triathlon training swimsuit was designed with the aim of providing a swimsuit which wouldn't degrade in a chlorine pool environment.
The fabric chosen to achieve our goal was Darwin supplied by Italian manufacturer Carvico.
Darwin is a P.B.T. fabric made of 100% polyester, and therefore totally chlorine proof, it ensures a perfect fit over time and boasts unprecedented techno-performances. It is UV protective (UPF 50+), breathable and fast drying. Darwin is ideal for competition swimwear and is a totally resistant to chlorine. Chlorine, over time breaks the fabric structure down.
The design of TN10 was based around our successful TN7 tri-swimsuit, but the TN10 had to withstand hours of swimming training in a chlorine pool. Like our TN7 tri-swimsuit the TN10 is a multi-panel swim suit which provides a fit like a second skin and avoids any sagging material when wet. Thus, reducing drag through the water.
