Spent $150 on a "beginner" tri suit and it fell apart after 2 washes
I bought this cheap tri suit off Amazon back in March when I could barely run a mile. Figured I didn't need anything fancy for my first sprint tri. After maybe four rides and two swims, the chamois started sagging and the zipper got stuck halfway. Now I'm stuck riding in baggy shorts and a t-shirt for my next practice. Anyone else get burned by buying the cheapest option first?

Burned by the cheapest option first" - yep, been there. I grabbed a clearance wetsuit once and the seam split on my second open water swim... ended up just getting a mid-range one after that and haven't had issues since.

Mid-range is the sweet spot. Pay once, cry once.
