Fit Type: Compressive
Fit Note: Please do not assume your size is the same as previous years, please use our size chart and if in doubt, email us: femme@desotosport.com. Triathlon apparel is meant to fit next-to-skin. This is to eliminate potential chafing, and unnecessary drag during the swim, bike and run. If you’re not comfortable with this type of fit and or are between sizes, we recommend sizing up. Garment will fit the most snug the first time you put it on, it will relax slightly once wet.
Customer feedback indicates sizing down if you are between sizes.

AustraliaGreat product
Wore them for half Ironman recently and will be using them for the full Ironman Australian race in a couple of weeks time. Very comfortable and practicle - slightly longer leg length which I like.
CanadaGreat design
My wife loves it
United StatesFirst 70.3
Amazing shorts! I did my first 70.3 in them. I have tried other tri shorts but the padding was too thin. I was worried about bumping the padding up for the run, but they did great there too. If I ever do another one- these will be my go-to shorts! I am incredibly happy with them!
United StatesLove the pad!
DeSoto has the best cycling chamois for women of any trisuits that I’ve researched or owned. The only thing I would change would be to make the waist a bit higher, but then I have a 60 year old tummy to cover. :) They have the “cooler” material added, so I’m looking forward to the warmer weather to see how it feels.
United StatesBest Tri shorts to date
I’ve been having relationship issues with my saddle lately, and was worried that none of my tri shorts would be help make even a 25 mile ride very tolerable. The Riviera, with the thicker chamois, is the most comfortable tri short I’ve found. I’ve ridden for an hour and half with no issues, which is great. Also ran off the bike once, and they were very comfortable. Love the side pocket!
