Review on 🏊 MY KILOMETRE Men's 9" Triathlon Shorts with Convenient Leg Pockets and Long-Distance Chamois for Tri Race Cycling by Eduardo Locke

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Fits great and lasts so long in the pool

After over 30 years of cycling this summer I decided to try my hand at triathlon. I bought these shorts for my first sprint triathlon and pool workout. I'm 6ft 2cm, 180lbs and the large fit me really well - snug but not too tight in compression. To get used to racing in them and going swimming again after 20 years without a pool, I've been wearing them to my local gym/swimming pool about 3 times a week for the last 3 months. While I know the pool is not recommended to use, so far they have not shown any signs of deterioration. Like a decent pair of mufflers, they fit my body snugly and don't start soaking up water. The padding is very adequate for at least the 14 mile portion of the trike ride and I didn't even consider padding for the swim or run. Overall I really like these shorts and would not hesitate to buy another pair if they failed due to chlorine.

Pros
  • Flatlock seams prevent chafing
Cons
  • A few little things
