De Soto Low Rise Carrera Tri Short

The Carrera Low-Rise Tri Short offers unparalleled comfort and speed at an affordable price, making it a tremendous value. Crafted with Carrera Skin fabric, this short is non-abrasive, lightweight, and dries quickly. The Invisipad, a quick-drying, thin, and unobtrusive fleece tri-pad, is suspended from the inside to provide support and comfort without the appearance of a bulky pad.

The 6-panel construction ensures a quality fit. This is the low-rise version, distinct from the mid-rise Carrera Tri Short. The elastic waistband with a drawstring allows for adjustability. It is not designed for repeated use in a chlorinated pool, but is perfect for triathlon, cycling, or indoor spin classes.

Carrera Skin Fabric: This fabric has a smooth, buttery feel and is extremely comfortable for training and racing. It also blocks 75% of UVB rays.

Minimal Fleece Invisipad: The Invisipad is a quick-drying, thin, and unobtrusive fleece tri-pad that offers support and comfort without the appearance of a pad.

The Carrera Low-Rise Tri Short is part of the De Soto Sport triathlon apparel line, which was founded in 1990 by former pro triathlete, Emilio De Soto II. The San Diego-based company leverages over 30 years of experience in international triathlon and endurance sports competition to create innovative, technical garments for men and women.

De Soto Sport's products are designed with comfort and style in mind, and most can be used for swimming, biking, and running, eliminating the need to change. In 2017, the company introduced its "Flisuit" for men and "Sneak-a-Poo" Femme trisuit, which were well-received and remain the only bathroom-friendly trisuits on the market.

More than 98% of all De Soto products are made in the USA. The company is committed to innovation and continues to push the boundaries of triathlon apparel, ensuring its customers can compete and train in comfort and style.

When it comes to sizing, it's important to note that triathlon apparel is meant to fit next-to-skin to eliminate unnecessary drag and potential chafing. If you're not comfortable with this type of fit or are between sizes, it's recommended to size up. The garment will be tightest the first time it's worn and will relax slightly once worn or wet.
