If you have something you wish to hide at your midsection, or nothing you want to show, this is the short for you. It is designed for the athlete who likes to wear his short around his waist, instead of on his hips. Made with all the same Forza Compressor fabric, the 4mm integrated pad, Mobius Comfort Compression Leg Bands, and the same construction as the best-selling Forza Tri Short 4-Pocket (FTF3), the only difference is the rise of this new short is about 2 inches higher.
