Giordana

Fr-C Tri Short - Women's

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"I’ve put these through pool sessions, long tempo rides, and race simulations, and they hold up across all three disciplines. The compression feels supportive without being restrictive, and the chamois doesn’t feel bulky on the run. The DWR finish really helps them avoid that heavy, waterlogged feel after the swim."

When we’re chasing marginal gains across three disciplines, we need apparel that performs without compromise. The FR-C Pro Tri Short from Giordana is engineered for seamless transitions, giving us a consistent fit and feel from the opening swim to the final stride of the run. Whether we’re racing short course or building endurance for longer events, it maintains comfort and control under sustained effort. The construction mirrors the standards of Giordana’s pro-level cycling apparel, using multiple panels of compressive Lycra Power to stabilize working muscles. A durable water repellent treatment minimizes water absorption and reduces the drag and weight that can follow the swim. Around the legs, abrasion-resistant fabric enhances durability, while 7.5mm Stay Put hems with integrated silicone maintain a secure hold without excessive squeeze. The tri-specific chamois features a low-profile design and an aloe vera–infused top layer, delivering targeted support on the bike while remaining discreet and flexible on the run. A three-step zigzag stitch reinforces the insert for long-term durability through repeated training cycles.

Dual front-access pockets provide practical storage for gels and bars without disrupting aerodynamic positioning on the bike. The compressive fit pairs well with tri tops and race jerseys, and the streamlined silhouette minimizes bulk under a wetsuit. For athletes focused on efficient transitions and consistent comfort across swim, bike, and run, this short is built to handle race intensity and high-volume training alike.
