about the nero 10k
The blueseventy nero 10k open water swimskin is specifically designed to increase comfort and long course performance. Tested and designed with input from
the world’s top open water swim specialists, the nero is the first competitive swim garment to use the unique DRST (Drag Reduction Swimskin Technology). It’s
extremely low drag coefficient, of only 0.032, in combination with years of
knowledge in designing open water swimwear, creates a garment that is
different than anything else on the market today. Tailored to the needs and
body shapes of open water swimmers, the nero is also the official suit of the
FINA 10km Marathon Swimming World Cup series.
