Subject: Tri Suit / Apparel in Houston
I was interested in looking at a one piece Tri-Suit for my first Sprint Tri in October.  However, I want to actually try it on, not just look at it online. 

Can someone recommend a place in the Houston area that sells these.  I can't find any online at REI so I'm guessing they don't sell them.

Thanks in advance!

Best of luck with your first tri in October.

I agree with everyone else.  I went to Tri On The Run and tried on a couple of suits.  By looking online I thought I wanted a Zoot but didn't like the way it felt.  I tried the Louis Garneau and liked it a lot.  I eneded up ordering it online because TOTR didn't have my size in the color I wanted but at least I knew what I wanted and what size.

Depending where you are in Houston Shelly, you can also try Luke's Locker (W.Gray or Katy) and (although some folks are not fans of this store - they still carry tri stuff) Bicycle World & Fitness on Dairy Ashford & Memorial.

I found a lot of good deals (sale items) and a good selection at the Katy Luke's...  TOTR is not convienent for me, although they are a good store.

Try both one and two piece sets on... you may find the two piece to be more user friendly... 'potty breaks' can be a little tougher in the onezie!

Not sure where you're located, but there is also a Luke's in The Woodlands.

I went to lukes in the woodlands and they said all the tri stuff was shipped to the houston store.  Bike land had a few things and bike lane had much more and more willing to help.

Hey,
REI does have danskin and zoot tri suits for women and men, you can also go to the danskin website. I tried the black one on and it was great, but I ended up getting a saucony one from a friend.

Thanks to all - I was able to find one at a reasonable price at Tri on the Run.
