It's not magic, it's KUMI: the science behind epic triathlon clothing

If you think triathlon clothing is just a nice outfit to compete in, you haven't tried KUMI. Every garment we design is designed to optimize your performance in swimming, cycling and running, because in a triathlon every detail counts. From aerodynamics to water resistance, science is on our side to help you cross the finish line faster.

Discover the technology behind the best triathlon clothing: aerodynamics, quick drying, compression and UV protection. Performance, comfort and design in every kilometer

 

1.- Aerodynamics and perfect fit

In cycling and running, the wind can be your worst enemy. KUMI triathlon clothing is designed with low wind resistance fabrics, helping you maintain better speed with less effort. Our ergonomic second-skin fit prevents the "parachute" effect and maximizes the efficiency of every movement.

2.- Hydrophobia: technology that repels water

The swim is the first stage of a triathlon, and getting out of the water in a soaked garment is a disadvantage. That's why our triathlon clothing features hydrophobic technology , which repels water and prevents the fabric from soaking through, helping to make a quicker and more comfortable transition to the bike.

3.- Quick drying for frictionless transitions

Triathlon is a race against time, and that includes transitions. Our ultra-quick-drying materials ensure that when you get out of the water and onto the bike, you don’t have to deal with a wet, heavy garment. This prevents chafing and improves comfort in the stages that follow.

4.- Smart compression for more resistance

Compression in triathlon clothing is not just for aesthetics, it helps reduce muscle vibration, improve circulation and delay fatigue. Our garments have strategic compression zones , which means less muscle wear and faster recovery, ideal for withstanding the demands of a triathlon.

5.- UV protection for worry-free training

Triathletes spend hours in the sun, and their skin suffers. KUMI triathlon clothing is made with integrated UV filters , which protect you from solar radiation without affecting the breathability of the fabric, so you can focus on your performance without worrying about sun damage.

6.- Durability and extreme resistance

We know that triathlon requires clothing that can keep up. That's why our garments are made with reinforced seams and high-performance fabrics , capable of withstanding intense training, multiple washes and long hours of competition without losing quality.

7.- Personalization: make your triathlon clothing tell a story

At KUMI we believe that every triathlete has their own essence and story. That's why we offer custom designs for teams, clubs and events, combining performance with identity. Because triathlon clothing should not only make you faster, but also represent you.

Conclusion: The best triathlon clothing is the one that works for you

It's not magic, it's technology applied to sport. KUMI triathlon clothing is designed to make you more efficient, faster and more resistant in every stage. When every second counts, choosing the right equipment can make the difference between finishing and winning.
