NORDIC RACE SUITS: WHAT ARE THE DIFFERENCES?

By Daniel Johnson 

One of the most frequently asked questions Borah receives goes something like “can you help me understand the differences between each of your race suits?” After all, on the surface, Nordic race suits all share many of the same features regardless of what brand makes them or what team is using them. They fit snuggly and are made of some type of a thin-ish, stretchy material. If you look at images or videos from the World Cup, other than the graphics and colors, it’s pretty tough to spot the technical differences between a Russian suit, a Swedish suit, and a Team USA or Team Canada suit. When we dig a little deeper, zoom-in a bit, and touch/feel/stretch and intimately analyze the fabrics and fit concepts you’ll notice the difference is in the details. In some cases, the difference becomes much bigger than just nuance. 

Let’s jump in and compare the different race suit collections available from Borah Teamwear.
