Very Cute Tri Short
By Suzanne C. from Roseville, CA on 3/31/2013
These shorts were very cute on.  They were not tight at the thigh like some cycling shorts are.  I thought they might ride up while biking and running but they didn''t at all.  Will keep these and probably buy another pair! They seemed to run true to size.

carrera shorts
By jami from Wise, VA on 2/8/2013
Size: Feels true to size
These shorts are very comfy.  I can stay on the trainer much longer with these shorts and not get too uncomfortable.  The pad is very thin, but effective.  Also I find these tri shorts to be flattering.  They don''t squeeze the tummy or legs.  In some tri shorts I feel like a sausage in a casing, but these shorts fit well and look nice while being comfortable.

A little bit slippy
By Gayle M from Chicago, IL on 1/28/2013
Size: Feels true to size
These are a nice fit and great length. The chamois is light, and for the run portion of the tri they are ideal. My only complaint is that they are a little slippy ~ not so bad on the long ride when you''ve settled into the saddle a bit more and have built up some moisture :)  but at first they are really slippy. For new riders I would say to chose another pair.....these won''t help with feeling secure on your bike.

nice style, but way too small
By janice g. from austin, TX on 1/4/2013
Size: Feels too small
Of the 5 items I ordered from Swim Outlet, 4 were too small.  On one of the reviews for these shorts, it commented how small it was, so I ordered bigger.  still too small.

Comfortable Tri Shorts
By FirstTimeTriWannaBe from Tallahassee, FL on 9/26/2012
Size: Feels too big
Sized just a tad too big for me in the thighs but still a great pair of workout shorts. Next time I would order a size smaller to get a bit of compression.

Nice fit, no pockets
By shmana from brooklyn ny on 8/28/2012
Size: Feels true to size
Bought these along with 3 other pairs of tri shorts.  I ended up returning them because of the lack of pockets, but if you race/train with a Spibelt or something you''ll do fine with these.

The fit was nice - no sausage legs - and material seemed durable.  I really liked the soft, low waistband.  (I''m 5''8", 150 lbs.)  The length was a good mix of function with looks - after all I don''t want to keep my half-iron quads completely covered...  The chamois was comparable to the others I tried.  Based on the price and comfort I probably would have kept these if only there were pockets.

Great fit and comfortable!
By S. Winser from Virginia on 7/29/2012
Size: Feels true to size
I use these for training and competition and they are wonderful.  I am 5'7 and have larger thighs and hips.  Other tri shorts are too tight at the thigh at the hem area but these are perfect.   I don't recommend wearing underwear underneath because you can see outlines of shapes and bright colors.

Great Shorts
By tparkis from Helena, MT on 7/25/2012
Size: Feels true to size
Right out of the package I used these shorts for a sprint triathlon in Hawaii, in the ocean.  They were great throughout the swim, bike and run.  No riding up, the legs did not feel too tight and I like how the waistband fits.

Covers thighs well!
By swimmom from cleveland, OH on 7/25/2012
Size: Feels true to size
These shorts fit well and do not ride up or down when diving in or swimming.  I use them during master swim practice and they work great!  I wear a size 14 pants and am 5'10 and the x-large fit well.
