Meet the Arena Powerskin ST NEXT Openback Kneeskin - Mandarin the worlds first ever racing suit made of recycled fabrics and experience enhanced performance while contributing to the reduction of waste at every stroke. Arena proudly introduces the NEXT generation of competitive swimsuits: lighter, more durable, higher performing and sustainable. The NEXT generation has never been greater. The exclusive limited edition suit celebrates and promotes sustainability with a unique print inspired by the ocean.
Compared to the previous ST 2.0, this re-envisioned version is 20% lighter, which results in less water absorption and drag. The specific characteristics of the new fabric provide a longer-lasting compression and, consequently, greater durability. In addition to its performance, ST NEXT utilizes sustainable materials. Over 60% of the yarns used in its fabrication come from pre and post-consumer waste, which would have otherwise been destined for landfills. The World Aquatics (formerly FINA) approved status of the ST NEXT makes it the first of its kind to be suitable for competitions.

INT = International Size. Arena Australia are transitioning to international sizing in 2024. The International sizing is represented by F (for French) on existing suits.
Note 1: With the introduction of a 00 size the AUS sizing was slid along e.g. Current AUS 2 is an old AUS 4.
Note 2: Some boxes currently have incorrect labels for the AUS size, but the suit size inside is correct e.g. F 30 / AUS 2 (incorrect) on the outside label of the box will contain a suit that is F 30 / AUS 0 (correct) on the inside. Updated March 2024.
