The range includes four models — the Apex Viper, Apex Viper Secure (with period protection), Apex Predator X, and Apex Oblivion.

Shop Funkita Racing Kneesuits →How to Measure — Funkita APEX Kneesuit
APEX kneesuits are sized on four measurements. Racing suits are compression garments — measure directly against the skin for the most accurate fit.
- Body Loop — the most important measurement. Start at the shoulder, run the tape down the front of the body, through the crotch, and back up to the same shoulder point.
- Chest — measure around the fullest part of the chest, keeping the tape parallel to the floor.
- Waist — measure around the narrowest part of the waistline, usually just above the belly button.
- Hips — measure around the fullest part of the hips and seat, keeping the tape parallel to the floor.
- Racing suits feel considerably tighter than training swimwear — this is normal and intentional. Do not size up solely to avoid the compression feel.

UK, US, and AUS sizes are equivalent for this range. Use the body loop as the primary measurement. Do not use training swimwear sizing as a guide for racing suits. If between sizes, speak to a member of staff at Allens.

Fit Notes — Funkita APEX Kneesuit
- APEX kneesuits are World Aquatics Approved competition race suits — designed for racing only. Using them for training will significantly shorten their lifespan and reduce performance properties.
- The body loop is the most important measurement for kneesuits. A suit that is too short in the body loop will pull at the shoulders and be uncomfortable to race in — always measure this first.
- Racing suits are compression garments and will feel considerably tighter than training swimwear — this is normal and intentional. Do not size up solely to avoid the compression feel.
- The Apex Viper Secure is the first World Aquatics-approved race suit with a built-in absorbent gusset lining providing light flow protection during periods.
- The Apex Oblivion is an elite suit for experienced racing suit wearers. If you are new to racing suits, the Apex Viper is the recommended starting point.
- Care: rinse in cold fresh water immediately after use. Do not machine wash, tumble dry, wring, or expose to prolonged sunlight. Store flat and dry.

Frequently Asked Questions — Funkita APEX Kneesuit
Measure your body loop, chest, waist, and hips in centimetres and match to the size table above. The body loop is the most important measurement. UK, US, and AUS sizes are equivalent.

The Predator X adds internal X design bonding and ultrasonic bonding for greater compression and muscle isolation. The Oblivion is the most advanced, with internal bonding for lift, maximum compression, and additional leg compression — designed for elite swimmers experienced in compressive suits.

Yes. The Apex Viper Secure is the first World Aquatics-approved race suit to include a built-in absorbent gusset lining, providing discreet light flow protection during your period. It is approved for use in sanctioned competition and the gusset lining is completely discreet.
APEX kneesuits are designed for competition use only. Using them for regular training will significantly reduce their lifespan and compromise their hydrodynamic and compression properties. For training kneesuits, see the Funkita training range.
A racing kneesuit should feel tight and compressive — considerably more so than a training suit. There should be no excess fabric, bunching, or gaping. The compression is intentional and supports the muscles, reduces drag, and improves body position. If the suit restricts breathing or circulation, try the next size up and speak to our team.
If you are new to racing suits, the Apex Viper is the recommended starting point — World Aquatics Approved with mid-level compression and all key race suit features. Choose the Viper Secure if you want period protection in a competition-approved suit. The Predator X suits swimmers competing at regional or national level wanting greater compression. The Oblivion is for elite swimmers with experience in compressive race suits competing at the highest level. Speak to our team at Allens if you would like help choosing.
Rinse thoroughly in cold fresh water immediately after every use. Do not machine wash, tumble dry, wring, iron, or expose to direct sunlight for extended periods. Store flat and dry, away from sharp objects. Proper care will preserve the water-repellent coating, compression properties, and bonding for longer.
