The Orca 3.8 - The premium offering for endurance swimming for 2009/2010. I designed the graphics for this suit, art directed the photo shoot and retouched the image.

Triathlon Wetsuit Design - Orca 3.8 - 2009 - 2013

Orca - Synonymous with high performance in triathlon, Ironman and freediving. Primarily my role was to design all the graphics up until about 2009-2010 where I began to also work on the physical properties and new materials. This meant liaising with production in Hong Kong and travelling to China to work with our factories. My designs are worn by current and former world champions. Worn by Ironmen, triathletes, open water swimmers, wind surfers, kite boarders and are used for many other disciplines that require speed and flexibility (and style) in the water! The Orca 3.8 is just one design that I have done to date. I have also designed the Orca Alpha, Sonar, Equip, RS1, Free, Breathe and TRN. Each suit has a commercial life span of two years before it is updated. I have designed three versions of each!
