Watery wetsuit for men - Tackey Elite - Black/blue

Introducing Our Flagship: A Cutting-Edge Wetsuit Designed for Speed, Precision, and the Demands of Elite Swimmers.

The Watery Tackey Elite represents the pinnacle of our performance gear for men. This top-of-the-line model is crafted for advanced swimmers and triathletes who demand the most from their equipment. Featuring a sleek profile, it combines exceptional flexibility in the upper body with maximum buoyancy in the lower body, enabling you to shave seconds off your time—whether training or competing.

The design boasts a sleek black look with bold blue high-visibility details on the arms and legs, as well as a fully colored pull cord to ensure you remain visible to vessels and coaches in open water.

Elite Performance Through Advanced Materials

Where other wetsuits fall short, the Tackey Elite excels. We've integrated top-tier specifications:

• Premium Yamamoto Neoprene: Constructed from ultra-light and highly flexible #39 cell Yamamoto neoprene, offering unmatched freedom of movement and thermal protection to keep your muscles warm and explosive throughout your swim.
• SCS (Super Composite Skin) Nano-Coating: This advanced surface treatment drastically reduces water resistance. The wetsuit is "hydrophobic," meaning it repels water, keeping weight down and speed up. Additionally, the coating protects the neoprene from nail marks and tears.
• Strategic 3-5mm Lift Technology: Built with carefully balanced panel thickness to optimize your water position. 5mm neoprene around the hips and thighs lifts your legs to the surface, while 3mm panels on the chest ensure balance, allowing you to achieve the most aerodynamic position in the water.

Freedom for the Perfect Stroke

No swimmer is faster than their stroke. That's why the Tackey Elite features ultra-thin 1.5 mm neoprene panels over the shoulders and back, combined with specially designed stretch zones in the armpits. This eliminates shoulder fatigue common in thicker wetsuits, making it ideal for both freestyle and more powerful strokes.

Precision in Technical Details

• Aqua-Seal No-Leak Cuffs: 2 mm thin panels at the neck, wrists, and ankles seal completely thanks to a built-in light elastic band. This prevents water from entering, which can otherwise increase weight and cool the body.
• Anatomical Neckline: The low profile and curved Velcro closure follow the natural lines of the neck, significantly reducing the risk of chafing—even over long distances.
• Speed-Cuff Forearms: Textured panels on the forearms provide better "grip" in the water and enhanced feedback with every stroke.
• Lightning-Fast Transitions: With a durable, stainless YKK zipper and anatomically cut leg openings, you can remove the wetsuit in seconds during transitions.

Size Guide and Fit:

A wetsuit should fit snugly to function properly, but your choice depends largely on your intended use. Here’s our guide to choosing the right fit:

General Fit Tips

When trying on a dry wetsuit on land, it will always feel tighter than in the water. Neoprene expands slightly and becomes more flexible once wet.

A good rule of thumb is that the wetsuit should feel like pants that are just one size too small; they fit you, but you feel they might split if you sat down quickly. You should have full mobility and be able to zip it up easily, and it should never restrict your breathing—if it does, it's too small.

Note on Our Size Guides: Measurements are taken with the wetsuit lying flat and unstretched. The wetsuit will give both with use and in water, adapting to your body during swimming. Select a size based on the measurements closest to yours.

Temperature and Season:

The Tackey Elite performs optimally in water temperatures between 10 and 26 degrees Celsius. In Danish waters, this means a full season from mid-April to the end of September.

Maintenance for Longevity:

To protect your investment, rinse the wetsuit in cold fresh water after each use. Avoid direct sunlight while drying and always store it on a wide hanger across the middle to preserve the neoprene's structure and elasticity in vital areas.
