I live in the US and am looking for an adidas Equipment bodysuit. I haven't seen any for sale since 2001 and I think they left the US market due to lagging sales. Does anyone know where I can find one for sale either through mail-order or on the Internet? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Contact me at dburke_lse@hotmail.com or on AIM at firstfiveeighth. Thanks.

Oops, I forgot to mention I'm a guy. But where did you buy it? Do they have a website? It sounds like you have exactly what I'm looking for (only in another sex).

I know guys who used to buy the womens suits as they were a better fit

I have a full suit (somewhere...) I have to say I hated wearing it. But if you're interested let me know. Being a girl's suit, you're probably not, but I think it's a size 30 or 28 if you are. I also have the coolest nike bodysuit, it's wicked, but size 36!!!! I was given it to try out not to race in though!

i bought the suit from a swimshop at the haslemere open meet about 2 years ago, i'm not sure what the company is, but i know that they don't sell them anymore as i do not think adidas make them any more :(

Not that nike suit, a different one (do u mean the one in the mailsports or swimrite catalogue or whatever it is?). It's odd but cool, all legs but no arms and a really weird neck bit. Comfortable though! Superfish there are Nike bodysuits somewhere, though I presume they're not as good popular as speedo ones as no1 seems to wear them!

Hi Chucklebean and anyone else interested

I have the following Adidas bodysuits:
2 x 30" long arm, long leg
1 x 30" long arm, no legs
1 x 32" long arm, no legs

All mens and all unworn - I got them as part of a team sponsorship deal and didn't like them.
I would be prepared to sell them - OFFERS?

Contact me here or by PM.

Soz, the long arm no leg ones are female - I am female but v. tall - when the adidas full body suits came out they weren't long enough in the arm or leg for me so I got given male ones - though there is hardly any difference whatsoever between them. The long arm no leg ones are just like a normal high neck female costume, just with arms!! They are like the costumes gymnasts wear. They were never very popular, I think breaststrokers tried them for a while because they thought it wouldn't restrict their leg movements...

Hi chucklebean. I had an adidas bodysuit back in 2001, but then went and lost it, can't find a replacement anywhere. I have seen what looks suspiciously like the full bodysuit being advertised for sale in a running magazine in the UK. They are selling them as sprinter suits? I have never seen any athlete wear one though, maybe they are one and the same thing.
