Arena racing swimsuit for women - Carbon Air 3 - Green/Dark blue (Limited 2026)

The updated Arena Carbon Air 3 is the most comfortable racing swimsuit available, while still featuring plenty of carbon panels. It’s worn by swimmers at the Olympics and World Championships, and is FINA-approved. We recommend it for women looking for their first serious racing swimsuit—it’s suitable for all strokes.

Why choose the Arena Carbon Air 3?

Seamless design: Seams have no place in a racing swimsuit—it’s as simple as that. They create unnecessary drag and can feel irritating against your skin. That’s why the completely seamless Carbon Air 3 is such a great choice: it gives you a smooth, streamlined fit with no added resistance.

3-piece lining: The special 3-piece lining offers excellent flexibility, giving you more freedom to move and stretch your body in different ways. This makes the suit ideal for competitions in every stroke, so whatever your specialty, this Arena suit is ready to perform.

Horizontal carbon-fiber bands: The fabric features integrated horizontal carbon-fiber bands that lock over your muscles to provide compression, increased support and control over your body. In other words, the suit helps you take full control of your body so you can perform to the best of your ability.

Quick and easy to get in and out of: It’s important that a suit is easy to put on and take off. Sometimes there isn’t much time between races, or your first race may start shortly after warm-up. In those situations, you don’t want to spend ages struggling with your suit—and fortunately, you won’t have to with the Arena Carbon Air 3 2026.

Made from 65% Polyamide 34% Elastane 1% Carbon Fibre: These materials combine to give you a fantastic swimming experience. They make the suit lightweight and smooth, and it feels as if you’re wearing almost nothing. At the same time, it helps keep your muscles supported in the right way. That’s likely why this suit is so popular with elite swimmers and is worn at both the World Championships and the Olympics.

If you’re looking for a top-quality, highly reliable racing swimsuit, the Arena Carbon Air 3 Open Back 2026 in beautiful dark blue and green is a great choice. It won’t let you down, and you’ll definitely notice the difference if you’ve never worn a proper racing swimsuit before—as well as if you’re already an experienced competitor.

How to care for your competition swimwear

Competition swimsuits and swim trunks are technical garments with bonded seams and applied logos. They last longer and retain their fit and compression when cared for gently:

• Rinse immediately in cold, clean water after every use—even after swimming in chlorinated or salt water. Don’t wait until you get home.
• Hand wash only. Never use a washing machine or tumble dryer. Heat, spinning and friction can break down the fibers and loosen seams and applied logos.
• Use mild soap or detergent made for swimwear. Avoid bleach and fabric softener.
• Never wring out the garment. Gently press out the water.
• Lay flat to dry in the shade, away from direct sunlight, radiators and other sources of heat.
• Don’t leave the garment wet in a bag or rolled up in a towel—this traps heat and chemicals that wear down the material.
• Avoid rough surfaces such as pool edges and tiles, which can snag seams and logos.

Arena racing swimsuits also vary in size depending on how much compression you want. Keep this in mind if you’re between sizes.
