De Soto’s NEW Femme Carrera Tri Short has an upgrade! We have replaced the wide elastic waistband (which some felt a bit “squeezy”) to non-elastic fabric with an adjustable drawcord. It is still fashionable, technical and now even more comfortable. Perfect for training, triathlon racing or spin class!

Fit note – Triathlon apparel is meant to fit like second skin. The functionality of this is to eliminate potential chafing and drag in the water and on the bike. Once wet the garment will relax slightly. The tightest the garment will ever feel is the first time you put it on. It will never shrink or pill Inseam lengths: X-Small: 4.75″, Small: 5.25″, Medium: 5.75″, Large: 6.25″, X-Large: 6.75″, XX-Large: 7.25″ Outseam lengths: X-Small: 12″, Small: 13″, Medium: 14″, Large: 15″, X-Large: 16″, XX-Large: 17″ Front Rise: X-Small: 9.5″, Small 10″, Medium 10.5″, Large 11″, X-Large 11.5″, XX-Large 12″ Back Rise: X-Small: 10.5″, Small 11″, Medium 11.5″, Large 12″, X-Large 12.5″, XX-Large 13″ CHEST – Fullest part of breast, measured as the largest part of circumference right over the pectoral muscle. WAIST – Circumference measured at the belly-button line – this is NOT the same as your pants waist size. HIPS – Circumference measured at the widest point, NOT at your hips where your belt may go. Typically this will measure just a few inches below your hip bones and around the largest part of the glutes. If you do not have a tape measure and you need something to measure with, use a belt, or smart phone power cord, and a ruler.

This short is an update to last year’s model (WCTS2). We removed the wide elastic waistband for further comfort while on the bike and kept the darwstring for adjustability. Carrera Skin fabric is non-abrasive, has a buttery softy hand and blocks 75% of UVB rays. Microlock contrast stitching is virtually indestructible while providing an eloquent appearance.
