TD/TK Undersuits


BroadSword

Recommended Posts

Need some suggestions on undersuits. Right now I have a two piece Eastbay brand suit, but I've tried marker and fabric spray to blacken the seams, but nothing works. Anyone have a suggestion a two piece suit that doesn't have white threaded seams (or even some other method of blackening the seams I haven't tried??)

 

Thanks all!

Contrast stitching on the seams is a major hassle. :(

UnderArmor didn't do us any favor by dropping most of their all black compression gear.

I currently use a mix of UnderArmor and DrSkin (from Amazon).  The UnderArmor bottoms have logos at the thigh that can sometimes be seen, but it can be blacked out with a sharpie, or with enough patience, you can probably get the logos off with construction grade acetone and elbow grease.  I stopped using my UA top when I found the DrSkin top, because I prefer the mock turtle, and even WITH acetone I couldn't get the X off the back of my neck, grrr.  The DrSkin bottoms are fine, as well, but a little thinner than the UA.  (not a bad thing in the summer!)

They appear to be out of most normal sizes for the top right now, unfortunately, but once they get them back in, I may buy a second.  The logos WILL come off with Acetone (I got them off mine), or you can go the black sharpie route, and just reapply on occasion as needed.
