ZootMen’s Core 7-Inch Tri Shorts, Quick Dry Performance Triathlon Shorts with Cycling Chamois Pad, Pockets & UPF 50+ Fabric

I purchased multiple pairs of riding shorts and kept only these Zoots. They are true to size, padded just enough and very durable. They have already been washed several times and still look brand new!! I could ride all day.

The Zoot Core is a decent light, but comfortably padded short.Pros: sits in place Thinner padding so no bulking 2” leg gripping bands to keep from crawlingCons: they tend to run small for ZootsOverall: if you are looking for a nice riding short that offers some cushion without the bulk, these are nice to have in the closet.I have purchased Zoots upper end shorts in the past and I wear a small. With the Core, I had to send the small back and exchange for medium. The small were too tight, the medium were better but not quite tight enough. I must be an in between fit.I would purchase these again.

I’m 6‘2“ and 185 pounds and this fit very well, which to me means snug, so it doesn’t move around during exercise. The pad is perfect for short to medium rides (using these for Olympic triathlon training but probably wouldn’t for half iron or more. The only reason I gave this four stars and not five is because the stitching is a little off center in the front and the back, but that has a minimal effect on comfort.

Good fit, great brand, 7 inch was best since 9 inch was too long for me

These are great tri biking shorts---thin material yet very good compression feel. They dry quickly after exiting the water or in a rain shower, look great too and have adequate padding as well=---just a really great product and great pricing too!

Zoot makes high quality sportswear and gear. These tri shorts are true to size and fit right. Arrived fast as well. Good value too.

Nice shorts. Much thinner than any other Tri shorts I have had. Pad is smaller than other shorts as well. Makes it easier to run, not great for long rides. Great swimmingNot very durable. Wore 4 times. First times ripped on the wall betting our. 4th time scraped the ground and they are now unwearable.

great product, so much more than just Tri-shorts.
