TYR Men's Hurricane Category 1 Neoprene Wetsuit

Used these for sprint triathlon racing in warmer water temperatures and they have worked wonders. You get most of the buoyancy benefits of a wetsuit without having to worry about losing time in your transitions. ADDED 12.12.2017 - My shorts came with the tie-string stuck in the shorts which wasn't a problem at all in the open water swimming but is a huge pain when swimming in the pool as the shorts fill with water and fall off if I push off the wall after every lap. Unfortunately had to drop my review to 3 stars because of this; there is simply no way of threading a new draw string through these and more care should've been taken in the manufacturing to ensure something like this doesn't happen.

love love love them. used for open water swimmming weekly.I have even used them in wet suit legal triathlon races. Especially those races where the USAT has the magic thermometer out insuring the water is just under the legal limit. They provide the floatation (read speed) without the heat or difficult of removal of a full wet suit. Even ran in them in a sprint tri without issue.

I loved the shorts however, the draw string is so short that it was pulled in to the waistband. This makes the pants useless for indoor swims. I just made a warranty claim. Let's see how that goes. If I get a solution or a new pair these would be a 5 star.

This is the best bang for the buck in neoprene shorts for swimming. There is a difference btwn a surf short and swim short both where the neoprene is located, as well at texture. Theses are very smooth. Get some and get your swim on!

Great swimming shorts. Reduces drag while I swim through the water. I usually wear a size large, but I had to size up since this material does not give when I pull them over my quads. If you're a muscular build you will need to size up 1.

Great product, adds almost as much buoyancy as a full wet suit, great for open water swimming, five stars!

Do not trust the size chart. I measure large but needed the xl

I like the product , the sizing is more realistic than the Blue Seventy I bought ( it was an XL but way too tight ) in the TYR I bought an XL and it fits well, bouancy a little better than others I have tried . Unfortunately I left the shorts in my car in the sun ( inside out ) on a hot day and they fused ( melted ) together, I doubt that I could have claimed warranty so I bought another pair
