Arena Carbon Air3 OB Kneesuit - Black/Teal

Introducing the Arena Carbon Air 3 Open Back Suit — the latest evolution in Arena's elite Powerskin race suit range and the successor to the Carbon Air 2. Engineered for elite competitive swimmers, the Carbon Air 3 delivers a breakthrough combination of ultralight fabric, targeted carbon compression, and World Aquatics approval, making it one of the most advanced race jammers available today.

The Carbon Air 3 is built for swimmers who demand every marginal gain on race day. The black suit is highlighted with both the smart taping detail and the arena name in teal.

Comfortable Compression

Horizontal carbon bands lock down at critical stretch points to deliver moderate, targeted compression — providing stability and power precisely where it's needed most, without restricting mobility.

FLEXMAX Shoulder Straps

A newly engineered shoulder strap that conforms to the body with adaptive flexibility,
maximizing comfort and freedom in every motion.

Carbon Shell Fabric

At its core, the Carbon Air 3 features the same ultralight Carbon shell fabric that established the Air family as a benchmark in competitive swimwear — delivering the same exceptional feel for the water, with next-generation performance upgrades. Internal tape construction provides excellent core stability, delivering a secure and supportive fit that holds its shape throughout the race.

Premium Internal Lining

Optimised for hydrodynamics and lasting performance, the premium internal lining reduces drag and maintains suit integrity across training and competition use.

Leg Lift Effect

Developed from Arena's Primo and Veloce taping technology, the leg lift effect helps swimmers maintain a higher body position in the water — reducing drag and improving efficiency with every stroke.

Maximum Comfort & Mobility

Engineered for supreme freedom of movement, the Carbon Air 3 allows full range of motion without compromising the compressive support elite swimmers rely on.

Ultralight Fabric

The lightest suit in the Powerskin range, offering maximum flexibility and an exceptional feel for the water — so you stay focused on performance, not your suit.
