It's awesome. I have another pair

You are AWESOME. I have another pair that I'm not that happy with. They don't have the tight elastic at the bottom like most. You feel very comfortable.

Pros
  • Works great for me
Cons
  • Works

The perfect triathlon pants

These pants are perfect for my triathlons. They are very comfortable to wear at all three events. The padding is comfortable for cycling but not bulky, which gets in the way when running. I highly recommend these shorts.

Pros
  • Still satisfied
Cons
  • Volume

Seams scratch

The seams are like little saws that gnaw at your skin. Otherwise great shorts. This is a fatal mistake. The seams are too big and scratch like CRAZY! I have worn them several times hoping they will break and even washed them twice. nope I ended up throwing them away. Damn expensive for that :(Check out the Baleaf tights!

Pros
  • Top marks for support and durability from testers
Cons
  • Out of style

Slightly larger than the 2017 model.

Shorts are good for cycling, but dangerous for triathlon. I have 2017 FX shorts and also this 2018 model. The 2018 model seems to be made for big feet. Additional fabric can be seen in the leg area. I only use them for cycling, they are my great grandparents but I'm not sure how they will react when they get out of the water during a triathlon.

Pros
  • beautiful thing
Cons
  • periodicity

The inseam is rough and chafing

My only complaint aside, these shorts could have been given a much better view. However, in a short triathlon, rubbing your butt is totally unacceptable in my opinion. I would send them back if I could, but unfortunately it took me too long to put them on properly. Now only expensive swim shorts due to chafing during running and cycling competitions.

Pros
  • comfortable item
Cons
  • long shipping

stop looking Buy it.

Excellent suit. i love quality I've worn it for 3 sprint triathlons and it continues to hold up great. Very comfortable in all 3 events. Full disclosure, I wear light shorts over this for cycling and running, but probably not necessary. Although I believe the specs say otherwise, I've worn it a few times in an indoor chlorinated pool and haven't noticed any effect on them yet. Can only recommend these shorts!

Pros
  • Inspires confidence
Cons
  • Exchange possible

Good shorts I think?

These are my first triathlon shorts so I didn't know what to expect. Other than that, I've ridden the bike about 100 miles and rode it about 15 miles and they're doing fine. I can't swim in them yet because I train in a chlorine pool and I've heard that the shorts can become damaged over time. The only downside I can think of is that the stitching on the seat (see picture) inside and out is starting to unravel. I hope it doesn't get worse as I haven't ridden that many kilometers yet.

Pros
  • Slim design
Cons
  • Not everything fits
