i used to have the arena REVO, the REVO+ seems smaller and a lot thinner. so thin it becomes see through, i would highly recommend just buying the revo that is thicker, provides more compression and is more comfortable.

I have been using Arena for a few years now.  In my opinion there are no suits on the market that come close to the quality of Arena.  This year I decided to go from the older Evo jammer to this newer one during my D2 conference championship.  Although I put on some weight in my season, this one felt much tighter then any Arena I''ve worn in the past, but as my 3 day long meet went on, it loosened up proportionally.  The suit will help maximize your potential, not make you a better athlete, so don''t go for it if you''re not trying to make an NCAA A cut.  If you are a better swimmer, this suit in it''s first few uses will create a noticeable lift in the position of your lower back and legs, and will place you in a better position on the surface of the water.  This I feel is the suit''s greatest advantage, aside from the incredible compression.  At the end of my conference championship i noticed some of the waistband was coming apart, and the rubber strands were becoming exposed.  I just wish that for the price you would get a better use out of it.  Highlight of my weekend in this suit was going from a best time of 1:42.81 to a 1:40.87 in the 200 free.  In season without a technical suit my best had been a 1:46.55. Hope this helps, i''ll be buying a Carbon if I make Nationals.

I bought this suit for last years championship meet and i did really like it for the following reasons. The suit did a great job at keeping my legs up and did repel water for a solid amount of races. BUT. The fabric is very thin/basically see through. It lost its compressiveness and wore out quite fast.
The suit was great for the first few races, but i just feel like for this price it should be a little more durable. I dropped time, but worth almost 300 dollars, not sure if its worth it.

The suit was overall quite good although I did feel that because they ran a bit small that the stretching of the fabric did affect the longevity of the suit. I would recommend getting the suit size you normally wear or to be on the safe side, a size larger.
