LIMITED EDITION Arena Sjostrom Elite II Swim Shorts

The LIMITED EDITION Arena Sjostrom Elite II swim shorts are black and gold and feature the eagle wing which Sjostrom is synonymous with.  Perefect for regular training or around the pool on holiday!

The Athletes collection also features swimwear and race jammers and suits from Peaty, Hosszu and Paltrinieri.  As well as the swim shorts there are also T-shirts, swim caps and race jammers.

It is a collection that celebrates their passion, their personalities and their unique drive as outstanding athletes through the symbolism of animals. They each identify very strongly with an animal, they recognise specific qualities of their chosen animal in themselves and in some ways are inspired by them. Adam identifies with the lion, Sarah with the eagle and finally Paltrinieri with the dragon.
