The De Soto T1 Speedtube 5 wetsuit pant exceeded our greatest expectations in 2007 in regards to demand, and it is sure to be a hot weapon in your arsenal again this year. The T1 Speedtube 5 is made of 5mm rubber #38 Yamamoto SCS™ (Super Composite Skin). It is lined with 4-way stretch Nylon Lycra® to minimize chafing.

Add a Speedtube 5 to a Speedvest or De Soto Pullover and get ready to come out of the water at the front of the pack this year.

Please keep in mind that the size chart is a basic guide and every body is unique. We each know our own bodies and whether we are considered disproportional in any way based on garments we have bought in the past. If you have any doubts, please call us at 888-293-3934 or email us at sales@trisports.com.
How to use this Chart.
Find your height and weight on the size chart. This will narrow you down to one or two different sizes.
Bibjohn Size:Find your waist and hip measurements in the chart for your gender. This will be your Bibjohn size.
Pullover Size:Find your chest and waist measurements in the chart for your gender. This will be your Pullover size.
Other factors:1.It is not uncommon for the sizes of Pullover and Bibjohn to be different.
2. If you are on the border of two sizes, and you are buying the Black Pearl Model, choose the larger of the two sizes.
3. If you are on the border of two sizes, and you are an aggressive swimmer, choose the smaller size.
One of the strengths of a two-piece suit is the ability to mix-and-match tops and bottoms to come up with an appropriate fit. Even a top pro––man or woman––may find the size chart not entirely indicative of his or her body's idiosynchracies. One who comes from a strong cycling background and has muscular legs and a smaller upper body may fit into a different set of sizes than one who comes from swimming and has a large chest and back. Consider, when choosing the appropriate T1 sizes for you, whether you're evenly proportioned or whether you might need to stray from the recommended bibjohn and pullover sizes.
