Description
xAir 3 uses the same ultra-lightweight Carbon shell fabric that made the Air family legendary. Maximum flexibility, excellent water feel and the light-as-air sense of support in the water that competitive swimmers have trusted for over a decade.
New internal taping construction with leg-lifting technology drawn from the Primo and Veloce elite suits lifts the legs and hips for optimal body positioning, reduced drag and improved stability through every stroke, turn and finish.
Horizontal carbon bands lock at critical stretch, providing targeted moderate compression, stability and power at the moments that matter most. Extended waist-to-knee coverage for superior hydrodynamics and all-day race comfort across multiple events.

Compression and flexibility ratings are indicative guides based on arena's published range positioning. World Aquatics (WA) approved status applies across the full Powerskin range.
Always verify current approval status on the World Aquatics approved swimwear list before competition.
Yes. The arena Powerskin Air 3 Jammer is World Aquatics (WA) approved for sanctioned competition. Always verify on the current World Aquatics approved swimwear list before your event.
Leg-lifting construction refers to the new internal taping system featuring hamstring seams that physically lift the legs and hips when the suit is worn. This creates optimal body positioning in the water, reducing drag and improving stability through every stroke, turn and finish.
UK jammer sizes (22 to 34, even numbers only) correspond to arena's Italian sizing (55 to 85 in increments of 5). Measure your natural waist and hip and refer to arena's sizing guide. If between sizes, select the larger size. Our team is happy to help with sizing — contact us or visit us in store.
Racing suits are designed for competition, not regular training. The compression and performance properties degrade with repeated chlorine exposure. For best longevity, reserve your Air 3 for competition and key race sessions, and rinse in cool fresh water immediately after every use. Our race suit repair service can also help extend the life of your suit.

Allens Swimwear is a family-run business founded in 1976 by Dennis Allen and his daughter Linda Beal. It started from a genuine need. "With 2 swimmers in the family it was often difficult to find the right kit, so dad and I took the plunge and started selling to local swimmers at our local pool in Kingsbury out of a suitcase and we've never looked back." Today, Linda, her husband Richard, and three of their children Danny, Will and Jenna still run the business together. The suitcase may be long gone, but the founding principle of helping swimmers get the right kit remains exactly the same.

Size chart
This size guide covers the Arena Powerskin Air 3 Men's Jammer — the newest member of the most popular elite racing suit family in arena history. Born from the same iconic Carbon shell fabric athletes have trusted for over a decade, the Air 3 adds key upgrades: new leg-lifting internal taping construction, an upgraded hydrophobic lining, and extended waist-to-knee coverage — all while retaining the ultra-light second-skin feel the Air family is renowned for. World Aquatics (FINA) approved.
All measurements are body measurements taken directly from your body. Use your Hip (B) as the primary sizing guide.

Take all measurements directly against your skin using a soft tape measure. Use the Hip (B) as the primary sizing guide.
If measurements fall between sizes, use the hip measurement to decide. Speak to a member of staff at Allens if you are unsure.

All measurements are body measurements, not garment measurements. Use the Hip (B) as the primary sizing guide. Speak to a member of staff at Allens if you are unsure.
Measure your waist (A) and hip (B) using a soft tape measure directly against your skin. Use the hip as the primary guide and compare both measurements to the sizing table above. Speak to a member of staff at Allens if you are unsure.
If your measurements fall between two sizes, use the hip measurement to decide and select the larger size. Arena racing jammers are designed to fit closely — a correctly fitted suit should feel firm and supportive without restricting breathing or leg movement. Speak to a member of staff at Allens if you need further guidance.
The Primo uses Hyperforce tensoelastic fabric (220 g/m²) with the greatest compression in the range — the most powerful suit Arena make. The Air 3 uses Carbon shell fabric (113 g/m²) — the lightest in the Powerskin range — with an ultra-light second-skin feel and more flexibility than the Primo. Both suits now feature leg-lifting internal construction. The Air 3 is ideal for swimmers who prefer an energising but more comfortable fit across a full competition day.
Leg-lifting construction refers to the new internal taping system with hamstring seams that physically lift the legs and hips when the suit is worn — creating optimal body positioning in the water, reducing drag, and improving stability through every stroke, turn and finish. This technology was previously reserved for Arena's elite Primo and Veloce suits and is new to the Air 3.
Yes — the Arena Powerskin Air 3 Jammer is World Aquatics (FINA) approved for use in all sanctioned competitive swimming events. Always verify approval status on the current World Aquatics approved swimwear list before competition, as the list is updated regularly. Speak to a member of staff at Allens if you need further guidance.
Arena racing jammers are competition garments and are not designed for regular training use. Using a tech suit for training will degrade the Carbon shell fabric and significantly reduce its performance lifespan. Reserve the Air 3 for competition and key race sessions. Arena offer a wide range of dedicated training jammers for everyday pool use.
Arena racing jammer sizes (22–34) do not directly correspond to standard clothing sizes. Always use body measurements to select the correct Arena size. The international size equivalents shown in the table (France, UK, USA, Italy, Germany) are provided as a secondary reference — always prioritise body measurements when selecting your size.
Rinse in cold fresh water immediately after every use. Do not leave the wet suit in a bag for extended periods and do not expose to direct sunlight. Hand wash gently with a mild detergent if needed. Do not machine wash, tumble dry, wring, iron, or dry-clean. Lay flat to dry away from direct heat sources. Avoid contact with sunscreen, oils, and rough pool surfaces.
