“I have used BlueSeventy Workout suits exclusively since 2014. I have always been super impressed with their durability and fit. I just ordered new suits and it looks like they are now a more 'lycra-type' material which has usually meant faster disintegration. I am hoping that is not the case.”
So glad to hear you've loved our suits. Yes you are correct over the past 10 years materials have changed. Previously we've used Carvico Darwin (100% polyester) fabric, however that material was discontinued and we had to pick another option. We chose Carvico Vita (78% polyester 22% elastane) in order to be able to offer a consistent fit across both our inline suits and our suits produced for sponsored teams. Our current swimwear is extremely durable and will last longer than any full lycra suit. It may show signs of wear over time, but is still predominantly polyester for longer durability.
