Care Instructions
To preserve the technical AeroFabric and Hypermesh™ fibers:
- Rinse: Always rinse in fresh cold water immediately after use.
- Wash: Hand wash or use a delicate machine cycle in a laundry bag.
- Detergent: Use mild, pH-neutral detergent. Avoid fabric softeners and bleach.
- Dry: Drip dry in the shade. Do not tumble dry (high heat damages the aero-fibers).
- Warning: Keep away from Velcro or rough surfaces to prevent fabric snagging.
Material and Specification
High-Compression Upper Torso: Constructed from a 160gsm fabric blend (77% Nylon / 23% Spandex) that provides a locked-in feel with high-tensile breathability, ensuring the suit wicks sweat rapidly without losing its shape.
Italian Aero-Sleeves: The sleeves utilize specialized 140gsm AeroFabric sourced from Italy, textured specifically to disrupt airflow and reduce drag, saving you critical energy on the bike.
High-Durability Side Panels: Reinforced with a 215gsm polyester-spandex blend, these panels offer increased abrasion resistance and lateral stability during high-intensity movement.
Precision Leg Grippers: Features seamless, laser-cut hems with a signature screen-pattern grip, designed to stay perfectly in place without causing friction or "sausage-legging."
Elite Italian Chamois: Equipped with a world-class Elastic Interface® pad from Italy, engineered to provide maximum comfort for 180km on the saddle while remaining low-profile enough to "disappear" during the run.
Streamlined Storage: Built with high-stretch back pockets (85% Polyester / 15% Spandex) that lay flat against the body when empty to maintain your aerodynamic silhouette.
FAQ
1. How long will Purpose gear last with consistent triathlon training and racing?
All Purpose products - especially those with Hypermesh Pro - are built to endure the grind of serious triathlon prep. With proper care, they’ll hold their performance, fit, and structure through multiple seasons of racing, travel, and long training blocks.
2. What makes Purpose Performance Wear stand out in triathlon and endurance sports?
Purpose was made for athletes training in real-world conditions - heat, humidity, and high mileage. Hypermesh Pro fabric is lightweight, breathable, and fast-drying, offering race-day performance without compromising comfort. It’s trusted by elites across Asia and beyond for a reason.
3. How should I care for my Purpose gear after a session or race?
Rinse your kit right after training, then cold wash on a gentle cycle. Avoid softeners, bleach, and the dryer - hang dry only. The gear is tough, but a little care keeps the technical fabrics performing at their best.
4. How does Purpose gear fit - is it true to size?
Purpose is performance fit - streamlined, aero, and made to move with you during swim, bike, and run. It’s meant to feel close to the body without restricting movement. If you prefer a slightly looser feel or are between sizes, sizing up is a safe call.
