arena is pleased to announce a sponsorship and supply agreement with Stanford University’s men’s and women’s swimming and diving teams.

arena’s new agreement with Stanford Athletics means both the women’s and men’s teams will have the full range of arena’s flagship Powerskin Carbon racing suits at their disposal. With three different versions in the range, swimmers will be able to choose their suit based on different factors such as stroke, distance, or personal preference .

Over the course of three days in September, 2018, these three suits, along with arena’s racing accessories (goggles, caps, etc.), were subjected to an intensive, comprehensive series of tests at the Avery Aquatic Center by the Stanford women’s and men’s rosters. In collaboration with university coaches, swimmers put arena gear through two-hour training sessions that covered the gamut of strokes, speed and stamina.
