Review on Soto Forza Tri Short Pockets Sports & Fitness by Dan Bobbert

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Quality shorts that fit great and feel fantastic!

These are triathlon shorts designed for running, cycling and swimming (with or without a wetsuit) and are really great for all three activities The padding in the crotch is nice and thick for excellent comfort when cycling, restricts but not the body movement. usually while running or swimming. The shorts stretch well, don't chafe anywhere and don't chafe while running. You feel amazing! Be sure to check out the size chart in the product photos here on Revain. I have a 32" waist and am right on the border between M and L (apart from my height which puts me in the L category); I chose L because I didn't want the shorts to be too tight and I think they fit perfectly. They are compression shorts so they compress my hips but are comfortable and my legs feel great in them after a workout. Please note the manufacturer says they are "not for reuse". recommended in a chlorinated pool" but if you wash them diligently afterwards I don't see any problems other than that the color may fade. I feel great wearing these, these fantastic shorts are worth every penny!

Pros
  • The integrated 4mm thick Clasico pad offers comfort when cycling and is invisible when running. The ride height is 1 inch (2.54 cm) lower than previous models, making it more of a regular fit than a high fit - it sits just below the pelvic bones. Seamless inner thigh eliminates friction and improves durability.
