Best wetsuit for the price
Pros: Great Value, Attractive, Comfortable, High Quality, Lightweight, Good Fit
"You need a wetsuit. That's why you're here. You don't ask for much in a wetsuit. You need something to keep you warm, and free from the fear of bluebottle stings, which flexes to your body, lasts a long time, looks and feels a million dollars, is easy to get on and off, stretches to your muscles unique dimensions, and helps you swim a little faster, all while keeping a reasonable price.
If this is you, then you've come to the right place. The Axium delivers all these points in spades - and the price is more than reasonable for such a quality wetsuit. I'd suggest going one size above what you need, but other than that, there is really no significant difference between this and a thousand dollar wettie made out of some super high tech fabric scooped up by NASA on Mars, which only forms in small quantities every thousand years. The rubber is slippery on the front, slightly sticky on the back, to give you a good kick, And it's specifically made for triathletes, so our tree-trunk running/cycling legs aren't squished into something made specifically for swimmers, like other wetsuits."

fantastic value for a super product
Pros: Great Value, High Quality, Good Fit
"Fantastic suit, made my swim so much easier, now I can push for better times. I am 168cm, and 65kg and this suit fits me like a glove. Needs to be tight to get on and feel tight and it does!!. The floatation is very obvious and makes a huge difference. Cant wait for some cooler weather to try it in more tri's. I have tried a few much more expensive suits and cannot really find where the money would go!!!!"

Basic value
Pros: Great Value
"Basic suit but also very good value for money. Rubs the neck but no different to more expensive suits - fix with body glide or similar. Lets a little water in but nothing drastic. Don't worry about the tight fit - wear it a few times and it will be sweet."

The most comfy low price wetsuit ever
Pros: Great Value, Comfortable, Good Fit, great flexability
"I just bought this wetsuit and tried it out at my local pol thinking "well i didn't send much so i wont see much improvement". I went from a 43 sec 50 meter swimmer to a 36 sec 50 meter swimmer, for the entire pool session. I love this thing can't wait to get it into the open water and puts some kms in. The extra flotation was perfectly balanced and i swam with no extra stress on my shoulders due to the flex. Awesome!!! get one. Visit trirunning.blogger.com.au for more pic's and times"

Nice step up
Pros: Great Value, Attractive, Comfortable, High Quality, Lightweight, Good Fit
"Bought this to replace a Blueseventy Torpedo for a growing teeneager. He is very, very pleased with it. It is nicely cut, made from good quality materials and looks great too. Especially the WIGGLE logo on the inside of the chest, which he is more than happy to show off before and after his races. A great step up and at this price, you can't go wrong."

axium wetsuit
Pros: Great Value, Comfortable, Good Fit
"overall great suit and fit. my one grumble is their decision not to coat the back of the legs in the suit with SCS, making it rather more difficult to take off in transition. other than that it's very comfortable and adds a nice amount of buoyancy to your swim
and as someone else mentioned, when you strip the suit down to your waist you become a wiggle ad board!! i guess that cheeky advertising brought the price of the suit down, i'll take that!"

Pros: Great Value, Comfortable, High Quality, Lightweight, Good Fit
"I took a punt and ordered this online as comparable suits in NZ were 3x the price, after reading the online reviews I went for the size up from the recommendation. I am 178cm and 83Kg so I got the ML. The suit turned up very promptly and I immediately tried it on, and found it very snug, however after a couple of swims it is now a very comfortable suit to swim in. I've done a couple of events in it now and found transitioning out of it was quick and easy. One word of warning I was a little rough putting the suit on and put a small tear into the buttock reigon, but this was easily repaired."

The size accorging the chart was too tight
Pros: Great Value, Attractive, good quality for its price
"So I am 95kg and 194cm, I tryed the L size, and it was very tight. I tryed to put it on twice, it was very tight in chest and shoulders, so I sent it back. Wanted to get bigger size, but XL size suits is not available at all anymore :("

DOUBLE CHECK YOUR SIZE
Pros: Great Value, High Quality
"I am planning to do a few open water swims during the forthcoming summer and so I needed to purchase a reasonably priced wet suit and although i had seen cheaper suits I decided to purchase a Blue Seventy ( a very reputable wet suit manufacturer) suit from Wiggle. Before I purchased the wet suit I checked the sizing chart and actually e-mailed Blue Seventy giving my weight (13st 4lb),height 5ft 9.5 in, waist 36 in and chest 42in measurements and the reply was that a medium would be fine. I ordered the next size up ( medium long) to give a margin of error but there is no way that I could zip up the suit. Fit was fine up to and including waist but there was to big a gap at the back even with assistance to try and zip it up it proved to be impossible. I returned the suit using Wiggle's superb return service and re-ordered the next size ( medium large). I cannot say this was an easy fit but at least I could zip it up. I haven't used it yet to swim in but I am sure it will be fine now that I can get in it and the quality of the suit for the price is very good"

Great wetsuit
Pros: Great Value
"This is my first triathlon wetsuit so I don't have anything to compare it to but it really helps get my feet high in the water and maintain good body position.
I am 179.5cm tall and 70kg with relatively broad shoulders and a 31 inch waist. I bought the SMT and it fits perfectly.
It isn't very easy to get on and I need help from someone to pull it back over my shoulders. It also feels tight, especially around my neck, when I'm not in the water but once I start swimming it feels perfect!
The only thing I'm not stoked about is there is a massive wiggle logo on the inside that turns you into a human advertising board as you run into T1."

wet fish!
Pros: Good Fit
Cons: not as boyant as stated!
"I have an old light foot wetsuit without all the advantages! Figured it was time to update as doing a few open water triathlons and this sounded good. I'm still using the old wet suit as it holds me higher in the water. This suit may be good for swimmers whos legs dont drag, but otherwise stear clear!"

Good wetsuit
Pros: Durable, Great Value, Attractive, Comfortable, Good Fit
Cons: Limited Color Choices
"good fit, I ordered size "small" (SM) and I am 171 cm tall and weigh 60 kg.
Height is perfect, arms and legs at the right length and no sag anywhere.
When my weight was around 62 kg this wet suit was a little too tight around the chest. However, now my weight is around 60 kg the suit is perfect. Its still a little uncomfortable around my neck line but i wouldn't want to go the size up and expect to trim down a little more in the coming months.
Would recommend the small size to anyone under 62 kg."

Great Wetsuit
Pros: Great Value, Comfortable, Good Fit
"I completed my first Ironman 70.3 in this suit 3 weeks ago. I can't compare it to anything else as its the first time I have ever worn a wetsuit. I swam the swim leg about 6 minutes quicker than I thought I would based on training times in the pool and the extra buoyancy felt great."
