Women's Carrera Tri Short*
WCTS2
We were the first to make a short with no gripper on the legs so you won't find any squeezing or pressing around the thighs!
Sizing: Please refer to the size chart button above for sizing guidance.
Fit Type: Form-Fitted
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 at: 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.

Women’s Carrera short
Bought the Carrera short for my wife. Fit is nice, only issue is the drawstring came out during first wash so she has to pull shorts up continually
Hi Jim, We're sorry to hear the drawstring came out in the washing machine. Please copy and paste this link for a short "How-To-Fix" https://www.desotosport.com/blogs/tips-from-emilio/a-tip-from-emilio-how-to-put-the-drawcord-back-into-your-shorts For future use we recommend tying a knot prior to washing.
Women's Carrera Tri Short
Absolutely love my Carrera Tri Shorts. I’m on my second pair. I bought the first pair after trying the 400-miler shorts. I figured if the Tri shorts were only half as good as the 400-miler shorts, it would be worth it! Not half as good but just as good! Omg. The fit is perfect. And they are so stylish! Writing this review makes me want to get another pair! Haha!
Good fit. Good quality
Liked them enough to buy in another design.
I like them, but wish they were a touch longer
I ordered the small and XS. The XS fit my waist and hips wonderfully, but felt a touch short. The small fit my waist and hips a bit loser, and in order to feel comfortable I had to pull the drawstring very snug, and it left a gap along my hips, which I did not like, BUT the SMALL had a much better length (along my thighs) in my opinion. I have worn and washed them twice, and I can definitely say they fit my hips, waist and bum wonderfully - they feel properly snug when I work out and I love the new longer padding. The ONLY CON for me is that the XS is just a touch short, if they were 1/4 inch longer they would be perfect. I would say definitely buy them, you can't beat the comfort in the proper places!
Awesome shorts
I can�۪t say enough about these shorts. This was my third pair. Fabric is so soft and comfortable, they move with your body, no binding or rubbing. I won�۪t buy anything else. Worth every penny!
