GLYDE — Comfort is speed

Meet GLYDE · From your race director

COMFORT
IS SPEED.

More freedom. More confidence.
More reasons to love your swim.

From that first ocean swim to the next race-day challenge, swimmers are finding their GLYDE. And the feedback? It’s putting a very big grin on our faces.

Real swimmers. Their own words.

A wetsuit you can forget.
A swim you’ll want to remember.

Comfort changes how a swim feels. When your suit feels right, you can settle into your stroke, find your rhythm and enjoy being out there. That’s the thinking behind “Comfort is speed” — and it starts with a fit that works for you.

“That feeling when a wetsuit doesn’t feel like a wetsuit... just get in and swim . Ridiculously comfortable.”
Nicole · @cole1610

“Shoulder flexibility is spot on. ZERO chafing on the neck.”
Tony Frost · GLYDE Zenith, first swim

“First ocean swim! Absolutely loving the wetsuit.”

The Kiwi behind the wetsuits

Your race director.
Your wetsuit designer.

GLYDE was founded and designed by Dan Feisst — the same Dan you’ll see getting race night underway at Kohi. A born-and-bred New Zealander, Dan brings a proper number 8 wire mindset: listen to swimmers, get stuck in and keep making things better.

The goal is simple: a suit that feels great to swim in. Comfort, freedom of movement and a fit that helps you focus on the water ahead. From first-timers to experienced racers, it’s brilliant seeing swimmers at different levels make GLYDE their own.

NZ born. NZ owned. NZ designed.
Number 8 wire thinking. Thankfully, no actual wire in the wetsuit.
