2021 REACTION SLEEVELESS (MEN'S) XS Reviews

4.9 Rating 12 Reviews
I love my sleeveless reaction suit which compliments my reaction thermal when it gets cold again. Blueseventy suits are very good for ocean swimming.

I'm thrilled with both my new wetsuit and with my interactions w/ Blueseventy! The suit is comfortable, warm, and easy to get on/off. My only nit is the whole downhill swimming thing takes some getting used to and has some tradeoffs (nice for crawl/backstroke and floating to relax, but less than ideal for breastroke). I'm a first time customer who is now a big fan of the company. I really respect their "Take it for a Swim!" return policy and very much appreciated how responsive and helpful customer service was when I encountered a shipping issue. Very satisfied!

This is my second Blue70 suit and, just like the full Reaction, this one puts me in a great body position in the water. Easy to don (i.e. put on) and remove, it is a joy to use such a high quality product. I also own Blue70 caps, booties and gloves. They are each 110% excellent. I have been swimming with wetsuits since the 80's and the technology has improved exponentially since then. And Blue70 leads the pack as they seem to devote alot of energy to product development (thanks Lance). I could not be happier to recommend their products.

I purchased this suit because I wanted to try a sleeveless suit. I do ocean swims about 3-4 times/week averaging 1-2 miles each. I previously owned an Xterra full body suit and it was cheap and fell apart quickly. Xterra’s customer service is probably the worst I’ve ever experienced. To the contrary, Blueseventy has outstanding customer service and makes a great product. My first Blue70 suit was too big. I swam in it about 10 times and realized it wasn’t going to work out so I returned it and got a smaller size. The turnaround and refund was quick. The materials are much better than the XTerra. Super comfortable and stretchy. I’m 5’11”, 185 and ordered the M. It fits snug and perfectly. I’ve owned the suit for about a month now and it looks like it’ll last a long time. I take really good care of it. I’ve swam in it down to about 53° and it works well for me. I like the freedom of a sleeveless suit. Great product!

This is my third sleeveless wetsuit I've owned, and the most I've paid for one as well, so my expectations were high. It meets everything I would have hoped for. I feel very buoyant and fast. The neck is the outstanding - no rubbing, not too tight or bulky, etc. I did not feel the least bit constrained - it feels very flexible. It also feels thinner than previous suits I've owned. I trimmed off the bottom of the legs at the mid-calf with a razor blade because it's easier to take on and off, plus you don't need help with your ankles and feet floating when you are supposed to be kicking. If you haven't cut your bottoms off before, put the suit on, have someone take a silver sharpie and mark the cuts before you get a razor blade on it. And of course take it off before you cut. I would highly recommend this wetsuit without any reservations. If I need to buy another one at some point I'd come back here to get it. I am 6 feet 2 inches, abt 215-220 pounds, and I bought a large. I think the XL would have been too big.

I bought a thermal reaction wet suit in April 2020 after all the pools closed so I could swim open water(water temps 55). It was great! So I bought this sleeveless a couple of weeks ago because the thermal was getting too warm (water temp Lake Washington 68). Love them both. I'm 5'6" 145lbs and the small fits perfect.

I have a full sleeve BlueSeventy and recently purchased the Reaction sleeveless. The first one was a little tight, so I exchanged it for one size up. The ease of returning and speed of exchange is awesome. The new sleeveless is great and the customer service is top notch. This is a wetsuit for swimming and triathlon.

I bought this based off the recommendation from a customer service rep due to it build and my size. I am 300lbs with 48” waist and chest measurements. Took awhile to get it on since this was my first time putting on a wetsuit. It was slightly tighter than I thought. Went swimming in a shaded pond to try it out (in early April). It worked great and i cant wait to use it for more training and races.
