High-technology swimwear fabrics are scientifically advanced materials used for swimwear in competitive water sports such as swimming and triathlon. Technical Suits made of materials of this type are normally lycra and nylon composite fabrics with features to reduce drag against the water. The fabrics include features that increase the swimmer's glide through the water (said to mimic marine animal skin) and reduce the absorption of water by the suit as opposed to regular swimsuits. Technical Suit options include the Speedo FS3, Speedo LZR Elite, Speedo LZR Pro, Speedo Fastskin FS II, Speedo Aquablade, TYR AP12, TYR Fusion, TYR Tracer Light, TYR Tracer B Series, TYR Tracer C Series, Nike Flex LT, Nike HD3, Nike Swift II, Nike EV3, Blueseventy Nero TX, Blueseventy Nero XII, Arena Powerskin XP and Arena Powerskin R-Evolution.

If you are wearing your suit for official competition, make sure that the suit is FINA approved since full body suits and certain types of fabric are no longer legal. Remember that tech suits are worn tight to reduce drag. Either try on a suit before you buy it, or measure yourself and look at the online size chart before purchasing. Lastly, if you are unsure if a tech suit is right for you — because of your skill level or because of the price tag — try one of the lower-end tech suits first. These have many of the features of the top of the line suits, but may not include every drag-reducing detail. As you become more competitive, you can always upgrade to another style or model.
