Custom Kit for Duathlon, Aquabike and Multi-Sport Clubs

A duathlon, aquabike or multi-sport club should build its custom kit around a one-piece trisuit, then add jerseys and base layers for training rides and cold starts. Order it as one programme with one design, not three separate orders. This guide covers what each discipline needs and how to scope it.

What does a duathlon club actually need?

Duathlon is run, bike, run, so the garment has to work across both disciplines without a change. That is a trisuit: it stays put on the run, sits flat on the bike, and carries a chamois thin enough to run in. Clubs usually add a custom jersey for training rides and a base layer for cold early-season starts.

Aquabike: what changes without the run?

Aquabike is swim then bike, so the run constraint disappears and the chamois can lean further toward the ride. The trisuit still does the swim-to-bike job, under a wetsuit where the race allows one. Aquabike members often also race triathlon, so one trisuit design covers both. See what athletes wear in aquabike and duathlon races.

Can one design cover the whole club?

Yes, and it should. Run one artwork across the trisuit, jersey and base layer so members read as one club in transition, on the start line and on group rides. Sponsor placement carries across pieces too; the sponsor logo placement guide shows where logos work on each garment.

How do you order for a mixed-discipline club?

Start with the pieces every member needs, usually the custom trisuit, then add optional pieces members can choose to take. Collect sizes with the club sizing guide. Orders start from 5 to 10 pieces (minimums explained), and turnaround is typically 6 to 8 weeks (order timeline). Nothing goes to production without your sign-off.

Frequently asked questions

Does a multi-sport club need separate designs per discipline?

No. One design applied across the trisuit, jersey and base layer keeps the club recognisable in every discipline, and it simplifies sign-off. Triathlon squads follow the same approach, covered in custom kit for triathlon squads.

Can members order just a trisuit?

Yes. Agree the core piece and the optional pieces up front so every member orders against the same design and one minimum.
