1. TYR Venzo Jammer Tech Suit- Top Pick For Sprinters.

13 Best Men’s Tech Suits For Swimming- The 2021 Expert Guide

The TYR Venzo is the latest tech suit to be released by the very popular swimming brand, TYR. This is one of the most compressive tech suits currently on the market and it’s packed with some great performance-enhancing features. 

Strokes And Events: As mentioned the TYR Venzo has a very compressive fit. This, along with a few other features which we’ll discuss in a bit, makes this tech suit great for sprinters. This tech suit is also great for IM events as well as for all of the breaststroke events. 

Materials: The Venzo tech suit features a material composition of 70% Polyamide (nylon), and 30% Elastane. Despite the higher nylon content, this tech suit has a plastic-like feeling whereas some other tech suits, such as the Arena suits have a more fabric-like feeling. This design makes the Vezno super water-resistant and also very durable so that it’ll last a full season or maybe even longer.

Frictionless Fiber Construction: One of the key features of the TYR Venzo tech suit is its frictionless fiber construction. The team of design engineers at TYR analyzed drag on a microscopic level to produce an ultra-smooth fiber that will help you to cut down on drag as you move through the water ultimately, helping you to swim as fast as possible.

Seamless Exo-Shell: Drag and resistance is further reduced by the seamless-Exo shell construction. This essentially removes all of the outer seams on the tech suit cutting away surface area and thus allowing for less drag. It also helps the suit to fit much more like a second layer of high-tech skin rather than a swimsuit.

Surface Lift Technology: The TYR Venzo will help you to maintain a higher body position in the water by stopping any water from permeating the fabric of your suit as well as utilizing a strategically placed set of internal taping. 

The taping not only helps to lift your hips in the water, resulting in reduced drag and faster swimming, but also helps to increase your power output with every kick you take while providing a very prominent snapback effect coming off the start, push-offs, and underwaters. 

Compression: In terms of compression, the TYR Venzo is one of the tightest fitting tech suits I’ve ever worn. This makes it great for higher muscle activation and increased power output, but may be a bit uncomfortable for some swimmers. Keep in mind, compression will fade and the suit becomes more comfortable after a few wears. 

Sizing: The TYR Venzo tech suit is available in both a standard-waist and high-waist jammer. The high-waist jammer is going to provide more coverage and a little bit more core support than the standard waist but may feel a bit awkward to some swimmers.

The suit is true to size when it comes to the size chart measurements, although I should mention that if you’d like to have a bit more comfort then you can consider ordering a size bigger than recommended.

Cons: In terms of the design of the tech suit I have no complaints. Everything is constructed perfectly for enhanced performance in the pool. The only downside that this tech suit has, in my opinion, is the comfort as the tight fit isn’t always desirable. That said, after a few wears you should feel much more comfortable racing with this tech suit.
