Size chart

This size guide covers the Arena Powerskin Carbon Air² Men’s Jammer. Our newest men’s competitive tech suit features an innovative external one-piece construction and new lining design for maximum speed, comfort and flexibility. Crafted from an ultra-lightweight fabric with horizontal carbon bands for intelligent muscle compression, the Carbon Air² smoothes the body into a streamlined shape from the waist to the knees.

With no stitching for zero chafing and dragging, this FINA-approved jammer is loved by elite swimmers for its ease of wear, unrestricted movement and second-skin feel. All measurements are body measurements taken directly from your body. Use your Hip (B) as the primary sizing guide.

Fit Notes — Arena Powerskin Carbon Air² Men's
  • Use the Hip (B) as the primary sizing guide — the jammer needs to seat correctly over the hips before the waistband can sit flat.
  • If your measurements fall between sizes, speak to a member of staff at Allens who will be happy to advise on the best fit.
  • The one-piece external construction means no stitching — the surface should lie completely smooth with no rubbing or friction at any point during the race.
  • The carbon band technology provides intelligent muscle compression from waist to knee — the suit should feel supportive without restricting breathing or leg movement.
  • The new lining design should feel comfortable against the skin throughout a full competition day with no chafing or pressure points.
  • The suit should be completely wrinkle-free when correctly fitted — any bunching or gathering indicates the suit is too large.
  • The waistband should sit flat with no rolling or gaps. Leg hems should end above the knee in line with World Aquatics regulations.
  • Allow 10–15 minutes to put on correctly for the first time. Take care with fingernails and jewellery to protect the fabric.
  • Do not use sunscreen, oils, or petroleum-based products before putting on the suit as these degrade the fabric.
  • Rinse in cold fresh water immediately after each use. Do not machine wash, tumble dry, iron, or dry-clean.
  • Unsure? Contact our team or call +44 1827 330600. Speak to a member of staff at Allens if you are unsure.
Frequently Asked Questions — Arena Powerskin Carbon Air² Men's

Measure your waist (A) at the natural waist point and your hip (B) at the widest point, keeping the tape horizontal and level. Both measurements should be taken directly against your skin with no clothing. Use the hip as the primary sizing guide.

If your measurements fall between two sizes, speak to a member of staff at Allens who will be happy to advise on the best fit for you. Arena racing jammers are designed to fit closely — a suit that fits correctly should feel firm and supportive without restricting breathing or movement.

A tech suit jammer should feel firm and compressive but wearable throughout a full competition day. It should be completely wrinkle-free when correctly fitted — any bunching or gathering indicates the suit is too large. The waistband should sit flat with no rolling, and leg hems should end above the knee.

Arena racing jammers are competition suits and are not designed for regular training use. Using a tech suit for training will degrade the fabric and reduce its lifespan significantly. Reserve it for races and competition warm-ups. Arena offer a wide range of training jammers for everyday pool use.

Rinse the suit in cold fresh water immediately after every use. Do not machine wash, tumble dry, iron, or dry-clean. Store flat and dry, away from direct sunlight. Avoid contact with sunscreen, oils, and petroleum-based products. Do not wring or twist the suit.

Arena racing suit 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.

Yes — the Arena Powerskin Carbon Air² meets FINA/World Aquatics specifications and is approved for use in all sanctioned competitive swimming events. Always check with your event organiser for any local rules regarding tech suits in competition. Speak to a member of staff at Allens if you need further guidance.
