Orca's all new 226 Kompression Racesuit has been designed to give women the perfect balance of performance, comfort and durability. Orca's 70 denier Killaskn Kompress fabric is scientifically proven to provide optimum levels of active and graduated compression, and is used in the leg and shoulder areas to help athletes to race further, faster. Panels of the new Tri-Enduro mesh fabric are used across the back for higher levels of breathability and moisture wicking. The latest generation Vapour fabric has been refined for an even better fit and comfort. The internal bra has been re-engineered with compression and mesh fabrics for support and comfort, while a new breakaway zip system has been developed to make getting in and out of the suit easier. The 3.5mm Tri-tech chamois gives increased protection on the bike, and comfort on the run. Other endurance distance-specific features include safety elastic pockets, reflective elements for visibility in low light, and comfortable, low drag Hydroseal leg hems.
