Review on SLS3 Men's Triathlon Shorts - Compression Tri Shorts for Men - FX Z Black Edition by Gage Lawson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Meets all expectations of this newcomer

Edit: Years later I bought another pair (lost the original before the race) and although the price is a bit higher I think it's still very competitive. I'm glad I took the risk and went with a brand I know despite the higher price. This is a new revision of the product and even better quality than the original. The leg grip area is much wider/higher at the bottom for a little more comfort. And something about the design around the crotch makes running more comfortable. The old design was great, but this new design is definitely better. I've seen reviews complaining about the quality of the zipper construction and I haven't noticed any issues with mine, although I don't pocket anything for my races. Original review, old design: my first experience with a tricourt. I've been with them for two open water practice swims, but I haven't run or biked yet. I am very comfortable. Fits as expected. As long as it's convenient. The build quality looks good. I take comfort in the fact that this one seems to fit the bill compared to the more expensive options.
