Note: This is NOT a paid review. I simply want to help other athletes feel and perform their best.
I have done the research, and found the perfect tri/run&cycle shorts…and the winner is 2XU Core Tri shorts. I’ve tried four other big brands in the tri shorts industry and these are the clear choice for me.
I’m 4’11’’ (Just short of), with a 27.6 inseam., and weigh approximately 111lbs. I do have thighs.
These shorts fall about halfway down my thigh, supply just enough stable consistent pressure throughout, have a very comfy chamois, and stay put—- no roll up, no chamois wedgie, no chafe. Since I had replace my running shorts, and only have one bib short for longer rides, I decided to just purchase tri shirts.
They wash beautifully - I line dry all of my kit to preserve the material.
The pockets are even big enough to accommodate my iPhone 15 pro and gels.
Since I’m a teacher and pretty poor - I can only afford two complete kits - so I have to work to preserve my performance clothing. I’ll try to give an update in another few weeks to let everyone know how they’re holding up👍
