Powerskin Primo Compression Heat Map
POWERSKIN PRIMO IS DESIGNED TO BE EASY TO GET ON.
Engineered with HYPERFORCE™, the world’s first tensoelastic fabric, POWERSKIN Primo is both our most compressive and most flexible suit.
Unlike traditional high-compression race suits, the time it takes to get into POWERSKIN Primo is not an indicator of sizing accuracy: its unique HYPERFORCE™ Fabric is highly elastic – allowing to be ready to race in as little as 5 minutes. Once on the body, the power of the HYPERFORCE™ fabric engages – delivering maximum compression while retaining an unprecedented level of flexibility and range of motion.
NOTE: To ensure you’re getting the most out of your POWERSKIN Primo when trying on the suit for the first time, please watch our tutorial video.
HOW DO I KNOW I’M IN THE RIGHT SIZE?
Consult the size chart and ensure that your measurements align with the recommended size.
Once on the body, POWERSKIN Primo will deliver our most powerful compression along with a new level of comfort and freedom of movement.
CAN I SIZE DOWN FOR MORE COMPRESSION?
The POWERSKIN Primo is a first-of-its-kind and will likely feel very different from any suit you’ve tried before. Confirm that your measurements align with the recommended size on the size chart. Due to the exceptional power of the HYPERFORCE™ fabric, sizing down is not recommended as the extreme levels of compression may restrict freedom of movement and decrease the overall performance of the suit.
Please note that individual experiences may vary.

Fit Notes — Arena Powerskin Primo Women's
- Use the Torso Loop (D) as the primary sizing guide — this determines how the suit sits across the shoulders and through the body.
- 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 Hyperforce tensoelastic fabric powerfully compresses as it stretches — the suit should feel firm and energising, moving with the body rather than restricting it.
- The X-tape connecting the upper body and hips should lie flat with no lifting or twisting — this structural element provides core stability and should remain smooth throughout the race.
- The open-back design should sit flat across the shoulders — ensure the comfort straps are not twisted and the back panel lies smooth against the skin.
- The flow channelling on the exterior surface should remain smooth and undistorted — any wrinkling of the outer surface indicates an incorrect fit.
- The suit should be completely wrinkle-free when correctly fitted — any bunching or gathering indicates the suit is too large.
- 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.

Frequently Asked Questions — Arena Powerskin Primo Women's
Measure your chest (A), waist (B), hip (C), and torso loop (D) using a soft tape measure directly against your skin. Use the Torso Loop as the primary guide and compare all measurements to the sizing table above. Speak to a member of staff at Allens if you are unsure.
The Torso Loop is measured by running a soft tape measure over one shoulder, down the front of the body, under the crotch, and back up to the same shoulder. This is the most important measurement for a racing suit as it determines how the suit sits across the shoulders and through the body.
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 suits are designed to fit closely — a suit that fits correctly should feel firm and supportive without restricting breathing or movement.
A tech suit 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 suit should feel tight but should not restrict breathing or cause pain. Seams and panels should lie flat with no rubbing or pressure points.
Arena racing suits 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 swimsuits 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. Handle with care when putting on and taking off to protect the fabric.
Arena racing suit sizes (18–34) 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, USA/UK, Italy, Germany) are provided as a secondary reference — always prioritise body measurements.
Yes — the Arena Powerskin Primo 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.
