All Swimming Equipment

We know what it means to be a swimmer. And we know just as well what it takes. It takes a lot of blood, sweat, and tears, and it requires a lot of gear (at least if you ask our coaches…). In almost all Irish swimming clubs, it's a requirement that you have your swimming gear in order.

We've gathered all the best swimming gear from the most well-known and popular brands on the market. You'll find it all on this page. So you can dive right in! If you have any problems or questions, we're ready to help you right here in the live chat, via email, or on the phone.

What swimming gear should you invest in?

That's a good question because swimming gear can include a lot of different things. Some clubs have more requirements for your swimming gear than others. And how do you find out what exactly your club's opinion and expectations for swimming gear are?

If you're new to the club, and it's your first time investing in swimming gear, it can be nearly impossible to figure out. The club can't expect it from you either. That's why we've listed the most basic swimming gear below, which should be part of your investment:

Swim fins are a pair of "rubber feet" that you put on. Swim fins provide a larger surface area for you to kick in the water with. With them, you achieve higher propulsion. They will likely become the most essential and most used item of your gear. Both Biofuse swim fins from Speedo and our Arena powerfin pro are really popular choices.

The kickboard is a rubber board that you place your arms on, so you can focus on developing and using your legs. It's a frequently used piece of swimming gear because you often have specific leg series where you use the kickboard.

Finger paddles are smaller plates you place on your palm. They allow you to press even more and harder on the water. Finger paddles are typically not part of the essential swimming gear until you reach a certain size, age, and strength (often 11-12 years).

Pull buoy is a type of rubber board you place between your legs so you can't move them. This way, you can focus on training your arms. A pull buoy is very popular throughout Ireland as part of swimming gear. It's used early on, for example, in teaching groups. This Elite Pull Buoy from Speedo is an extremely popular choice.

The snorkel you know, right? It ensures you can breathe underwater. This allows you to focus on using your legs, arm strokes, pressing on the water, or other things because you don't have to think about breathing. The snorkel is used as swimming gear at a later age.

All this swimming gear – and more – we've gathered in a great blog post where we give you tips on ten specific swimming items you need for both competitions and swim training.

The right swimming gear for swim training can help you improve your technique

When you want to improve and focus on some specific things technically, the right gear for swim training comes to your rescue.

Do you tend not to get all the way down and finish your arm stroke in freestyle? Then put on a pair of finger paddles. They make it easier to press and feel, so you reach all the way to the hip before finishing your arm stroke. You can also use the snorkel if you want to improve your body position in the water. Here, the snorkel can help you stabilize your entire swimming. Are you interested in learning more about how to use the various swimming gear optimally? Then you can read our blog post on the subject.

Swimming gear can be really effective when you want to reach a higher level with your swimming technically. It's no wonder that the world's best swimmers like Michael Phelps, Jeanette Ottesen, Rikke Møller, and Katie Ledecky also use the recommended swimming gear. It just works!

Swimming gear is also a great tool to help children learn to swim. Our swimming gear is not only for the best or elite swimmers. Our swimming gear can be used even by new swimmers or children who, to a greater extent, learn to swim with the help of swimming gear.

When you want to help small children start swimming, it's important that they can use their legs more continuously. Here, the board is important as gear for swim training. If the child needs to learn to stay afloat, then a simple noodle is also a really good piece of equipment.

This way, you can use swimming gear in various contexts – and for swimmers at different levels. Therefore, you can definitely find some swimming gear to improve your swimming technique. We promise you that there is swimming gear you never even thought of!

Swimming gear for children

Most children love a good swim or to splash around in the water. Therefore, it's an advantage for all children if they learn to swim at an early age. It will benefit them for the rest of their lives. That's why you should do your child the favor of getting them started with swimming. You can check out our category children's swimming gear to get an overview of all our swimming gear for children.

Your child will definitely also need a lot of swimming accessories. However, it's important to start with the right swimming gear, such as a good pair of swimming goggles. The right swimming gear for children ensures that your child has a good and fun experience in the water.

You probably know it yourself from your own training. Is there anything as motivating as new workout clothes? No, right? Your children probably have the same attitude. New swimming gear for children is therefore important to ensure the right motivation, so they do even better in swim training. And when they're ready to get out of the pool, a children's bath poncho can be a great way to stay warm and for easy changing.
