4.8 Rating 18 Reviews
I have only swam in this a couple times so far and love it! This things makes you feel like your skiing on top of the water. This is my first wetsuit, but have been very impressed so far, great product and company.

Reaction suit is my first wetsuit. As such, I have no basis of comparison. My worries of restricted arm movement vanished as soon as I tried it on. I have now been on 4 lake swims in temperatures between 59 & 66 degF. I knew about bouyancy of wetsuits before purchase, but was still very surprised during my first swim. I may consider less bouyancy in legs on future purchase. I have pretty good swim mechanics and might not have "sinking legs". I am 6'-1" 165 lbs and bought MT (medium-tall) suit. I placed 2 calls to BlueSeventy inquiry about suit and thermal cap. Both were answered immediately. Kudos. Happy swims!

Using this suit in the chilly pacific has been amazing! Easy to get on and off, super light weight, great range of motion when swimming, and most importantly have never felt cold or too hot while getting the yardage in! The fact that it has remained the same after several swims really showcases the quality of the suit and company! For reference I’m 5”10, 175lbs, and wear a M.

This is my first wetsuit, so while I don't have others to compare it to, I'm really happy with it. I've been using it a couple times a week for a couple weeks now in swims up to 2000 yards and have no regrets. As someone new to open water swimming, this has been a great experience.

Having only worn sleeveless suits I was a bit worried about being too restricted in the shoulders with a full suit. The reaction allowed the necessary flexibility. Warmer than I thought as well. Completed Escape from Alcatraz swim and this suit was more than insulated enough.

I rented several different wetsuits and sizes before trying this one. I finally found the Reaction and fell in love. Unfortunately, 6 weeks later, the zipper came off track. It was probably user error, but BlueSeventy replaced it under warranty. So now I am both delighted and grateful, a committed customer.

Wet suit performed exactly as advertised. It was quite comfortable, especially after getting in the water. Water temp was about 69 degrees, so while not terribly, cold, it did require a wet suit. I will stick with Blueseventy, without doubt.
