Description

The Bont Retro Neo Inline Speed Skating Suit combines classic Bont styling with a close-fitting design for training and racing.

Italian Shine fabric, mesh ventilation panels, and folded elastane leg grippers bring together a streamlined fit and practical comfort.

Key Product Points

  • Race-focused fit: The same cut as the Retro Elite suit, designed to keep fabric close to the body.
  • Italian Shine fabric: The main fabric is paired with Asian mesh in the ventilation panels.
  • Strategically placed vents: Underarm and rear-hamstring ventilation helps warm air escape.
  • Secure leg openings: Folded elastane grippers help keep the shorts snug against the legs.
  • Classic Bont design: Red, black, and white graphics with striped trim, short sleeves, and unisex sizing.

Classic style, a fit built for speed

A racing suit should work with your skating position and make it easy to focus on the session ahead. The Retro Neo brings the cut of the Retro Elite suit to an accessible inline speed skating suit, combining a fitted silhouette with carefully positioned ventilation. It is an option for skaters who want purposeful race apparel for regular training, club sessions, and competition.

The design is recognizably Bont: a red upper body, black shorts, a bold white chest panel, and prominent BONT SKATES lettering. Red, white, and blue trim finishes the collar, sleeves, and leg openings. These details give the suit its retro identity while the one-piece construction keeps the overall appearance clean and coordinated.

For training sessions and race days

This suit is for inline speed skaters looking for close-fitting apparel with a short-sleeve, short-leg design. Whether you are developing your technique or preparing for your next event, the combination of fit, fabric, and ventilation gives you a practical alternative to separate training tops and shorts. Its unisex sizing lets skaters choose by measurements and preferred fit.

Choosing race apparel is also about finding a fit you can use consistently. The Neo keeps the same cut as the Retro Elite suit while offering a more affordable entry into Bont racing apparel. That makes it relevant to skaters who value the established design and want a suit they can bring into their regular skating routine.

Developed with Vie13 Kustom Apparel

Bont collaborated with Vie13 Kustom Apparel on this design. Vie13 brings experience in racing apparel to a suit created for athletes who care about performance and value. The partnership connects Bont's skating focus with Vie13's approach to the way a garment fits and interacts with airflow.

Vie13 was the first to bring coated speed fabrics to inline speed skating, with the goal of helping skaters of different body shapes go faster. The Retro Neo belongs to that wider approach to apparel design, where the cut, the position of the fabric, and the placement of the vents are considered together. Its specific construction combines Italian Shine fabric with Asian mesh ventilation panels.

Italian Shine fabric and mesh panels

Most of the suit is made from Italian Shine fabric. Mesh made in Asia is used for the venting panels, placing a different material where ventilation is needed. This combination is central to the Neo design: the main fabric forms the body of the suit, while the mesh panels provide targeted areas for warm air to escape.

The materials are arranged around the needs of a fitted racing garment. Rather than relying on a loose cut for ventilation, the suit incorporates vents into selected areas. This allows its streamlined shape and ventilation layout to work together, giving skaters a clear reason to choose a purpose-designed inline racing suit.

A smaller frontal wind profile

Vie13's design approach uses thermodynamics to help keep airflow closer to the athlete's limbs and torso. Keeping that flow close to the body reduces the frontal wind profile, with the aim of helping a skater maintain the same speed more easily and for longer. The suit's close-fitting cut is part of that approach.

For the wearer, fit is therefore an important part of selecting the suit. A garment that follows your body provides the intended silhouette, while choosing the appropriate size helps you use that shape comfortably. Check the measurements carefully, particularly if you are choosing your first one-piece racing suit or are between sizes.

Ventilation behind the hamstrings

The leg vents sit toward the back of the hamstrings. Their position allows warm air to come out as cooler air flows over the top. This places ventilation in a specific part of the shorts while keeping it away from the leading surface presented to the airflow.

That placement is a useful detail when comparing racing apparel. Ventilation is not simply a matter of adding mesh anywhere on the garment. Here, the position of the panels is linked to the way air moves around a skater, supporting the broader aim of keeping airflow close to the body.

Underarm ventilation

The underarm vents follow the same principle as the leg vents. They are positioned away from the athlete's leading edge and designed to catch airflow as it transitions toward the back. This provides another route for warm air to escape without changing the suit's fitted outline.

Together, the underarm and hamstring panels make ventilation an integrated part of the design. Both areas support the same balance: maintain a close-fitting racing shape while placing mesh where it can help air move through the garment.

Details that complete the fit

Folded elastane leg grippers

Folded elastane grippers finish the leg openings and help keep the shorts secure and close to the legs. This detail matters in a fitted suit because the hem is part of the overall silhouette. A snug opening helps the lower edge sit where intended as you move through your skating stride.

The grippers are incorporated into the short-leg construction, so the secure fit remains part of a simple one-piece garment. Along with the striped trim, they give the shorts a defined finish that complements the red upper body and black lower panels.

Chamois and front zipper

The suit includes a Taiwanese chamois modeled on an Italian style. A front zipper runs through the torso, as shown in the product photos. These construction details sit alongside the main fabric, ventilation panels, and leg grippers to complete the garment.

When reviewing the suit, consider all of those elements together rather than judging it only by its appearance. The familiar graphics give it character, but the cut, material choices, and vent placement are the features that define how it is intended to fit for skating.

Choose your size by the chart

The Neo uses unisex sizing from XXS to XL. The original size chart is based on a looser fit; Bont recommends sizing down for skaters at the smaller end of a size range. Compare the chart with your measurements before choosing, and use the available size selector to check the options currently in stock.

For skaters who want classic Bont styling, the Retro Elite cut, and targeted ventilation in an affordable racing suit, the Retro Neo brings those details together. Check your size and select your suit for your next training session or race.

It is an option for skaters who want purposeful race apparel for regular training, club sessions, and competition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe design is recognizably Bont: a red upper body, black shorts, a bold white chest panel, and prominent BONT SKATES lettering. Red, white, and blue trim finishes the collar, sleeves, and leg openings.

Whether you are developing your technique or preparing for your next event, the combination of fit, fabric, and ventilation gives you a practical alternative to separate training tops and shorts. Its unisex sizing lets skaters choose by measurements and preferred fit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChoosing race apparel is also about finding a fit you can use consistently. The Neo keeps the same cut as the Retro Elite suit while offering a more affordable entry into Bont racing apparel. That makes it relevant to skaters who value the established design and want a suit they can bring into their regular skating routine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eDeveloped with Vie13 Kustom Apparel\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBont collaborated with \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/vie13.com\/\" title=\"Vie13 Kustom Apparel\"\u003eVie13 Kustom Apparel\u003c\/a\u003e on this design. Vie13 brings experience in racing apparel to a suit created for athletes who care about performance and value. The partnership connects Bont's skating focus with Vie13's approach to the way a garment fits and interacts with airflow.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVie13 was the first to bring coated speed fabrics to inline speed skating, with the goal of helping skaters of different body shapes go faster. The Retro Neo belongs to that wider approach to apparel design, where the cut, the position of the fabric, and the placement of the vents are considered together. Its specific construction combines Italian Shine fabric with Asian mesh ventilation panels.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eItalian Shine fabric and mesh panels\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMost of the suit is made from Italian Shine fabric. Mesh made in Asia is used for the venting panels, placing a different material where ventilation is needed. This combination is central to the Neo design: the main fabric forms the body of the suit, while the mesh panels provide targeted areas for warm air to escape.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe materials are arranged around the needs of a fitted racing garment. Rather than relying on a loose cut for ventilation, the suit incorporates vents into selected areas. This allows its streamlined shape and ventilation layout to work together, giving skaters a clear reason to choose a purpose-designed inline racing suit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eA smaller frontal wind profile\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVie13's design approach uses thermodynamics to help keep airflow closer to the athlete's limbs and torso. Keeping that flow close to the body reduces the frontal wind profile, with the aim of helping a skater maintain the same speed more easily and for longer. The suit's close-fitting cut is part of that approach.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor the wearer, fit is therefore an important part of selecting the suit. A garment that follows your body provides the intended silhouette, while choosing the appropriate size helps you use that shape comfortably. Check the measurements carefully, particularly if you are choosing your first one-piece racing suit or are between sizes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eVentilation behind the hamstrings\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe leg vents sit toward the back of the hamstrings. Their position allows warm air to come out as cooler air flows over the top. This places ventilation in a specific part of the shorts while keeping it away from the leading surface presented to the airflow.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThat placement is a useful detail when comparing racing apparel. Ventilation is not simply a matter of adding mesh anywhere on the garment. Here, the position of the panels is linked to the way air moves around a skater, supporting the broader aim of keeping airflow close to the body.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eUnderarm ventilation\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe underarm vents follow the same principle as the leg vents. They are positioned away from the athlete's leading edge and designed to catch airflow as it transitions toward the back. This provides another route for warm air to escape without changing the suit's fitted outline.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTogether, the underarm and hamstring panels make ventilation an integrated part of the design. Both areas support the same balance: maintain a close-fitting racing shape while placing mesh where it can help air move through the garment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eDetails that complete the fit\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFolded elastane leg grippers\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFolded elastane grippers finish the leg openings and help keep the shorts secure and close to the legs. This detail matters in a fitted suit because the hem is part of the overall silhouette. A snug opening helps the lower edge sit where intended as you move through your skating stride.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe grippers are incorporated into the short-leg construction, so the secure fit remains part of a simple one-piece garment. Along with the striped trim, they give the shorts a defined finish that complements the red upper body and black lower panels.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eChamois and front zipper\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe suit includes a Taiwanese chamois modeled on an Italian style. A front zipper runs through the torso, as shown in the product photos. These construction details sit alongside the main fabric, ventilation panels, and leg grippers to complete the garment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen reviewing the suit, consider all of those elements together rather than judging it only by its appearance. The familiar graphics give it character, but the cut, material choices, and vent placement are the features that define how it is intended to fit for skating.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eChoose your size by the chart\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Neo uses unisex sizing from XXS to XL. The original size chart is based on a looser fit; Bont recommends sizing down for skaters at the smaller end of a size range. Compare the chart with your measurements before choosing, and use the available size selector to check the options currently in stock.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor skaters who want classic Bont styling, the Retro Elite cut, and targeted ventilation in an affordable racing suit, the Retro Neo brings those details together.

Customer photo review of Retro Neo Inline Speed Skating Suit

The skating suit reduces air resistance, the effect of headwinds, in particular, and thus allows for greater speed. It is also comfortable to wear.

Retro Neo Inline Speed Skating Suit

I ordered every size except the XL cause its out of stock. Large is just too tight, XXL is too big in the legs and arms only slightly. Might keep it.

Retro Neo Inline Speed Skating Suit

It fit great around my waist and shoulders, but at 6'1"/1.85m tall, it's tight height wise, which is felt in the crotch and back of the neck; not problematically so, though - definitely still wearable.

Retro Neo Inline Speed Skating Suit

Really nice and cute design. The only issue is that if it's too tight, the red color loses some of its radiance. Make sure you get the correct size.

Retro Neo Inline Speed Skating Suit

Used this in my first marathon and it performed well. I would appreciate a pair shorts in the same style. Thanks!

Retro Neo Inline Speed Skating Suit

This is a good skin suit for the price. I'm 5'9 but had to order the XL because of broad shoulders/chest but it wasn't too long for me despite that. The look of the outfit is above what I'd seen for other skate maker branded outfits so I'm happy with that too.
