Performance Tri 6in Shorts - Women's

While it's not advisable to blindly follow the crowd, some things are popular for a reason. Case in point are the Zoot Performance Tri 6in Women's Shorts. Touted as the best selling women's triathlon shorts in Zoot's history, the Performance Tri delivers near-perfection in every aspect of its construction.

Zoot incorporated three different fabrics for the construction of the Performance Tri shorts. All three materials work harmoniously toward the same objective — making your efforts and transitions smoother — but the Performance Tri also has some features that set it apart from other tri shorts. It uses Zoot's SeamLink technology, which adds stretch to the seams to eliminate dead spots and banish chafing, and has a doubled inseam gusset that keeps you unrestricted and comfortable.

At the waist, a wide comfort waistband and elastic drawcord keep the shorts in place, while a Teksheen BioWrap gripper-free hem helps support your muscles and encourages circulation without pinching or abrading. Dual hip holster pockets secure gels and tablets, and reflective details and UPF 50+ sun protection keep you safe during training missions.

We'd also be remiss not to mention the Performance Tri's Integra SB 2D chamois, a two-layer pad that provides low-bulk, quick-drying cushioning that will help on the bike without slowing you down during the run or swim.
