Homme Shorts de flottabilité - Silver Shadow

Was only able to use in a pool so far. The swim in the 70.3 that I entered was canx. I think they'll be great

I was searching for a pair of buoyancy shorts for an upcoming race which requires swimming and running together. I tried a couple of different brands and stumbled across these as a zoo team member. I figured I’d give him a try to my surprise. They feel like a regular try short, but have an amazing buoyancy characteristic this allows me to concentrate on my stroke. I highly recommend these.

Shorts are really comfortable and fit to size. Really improves open water swimming.

Love the shorts. The neoprene is soft and flexible. good fit. One issue though. The waist string loop is to big so when one tightens the string it's not at the top of the suit so when swimming the top flips down to the point of where the string is.

I will not be able to SWIM until Summer...

These snug buoyancy shorts have helped me shave 2-3 seconds off my 100 yd times by keeping me higher in the water as I build up my core strength. They are well constructed, too, with reinforcements at all seams.

it is a great gear for training, to get used to neoprene, and to develop body rotation without wetsuit.

I owned a pair of XTERRA Lava shorts. They were ok but nothing special and the company has poor customer service. I then bought TYR Hurricane Cat 1 which was a major improvement for product and company. But since I’m getting into more and more triathlons and doing much more swim training, I decided I wanted another pair. I chose Zoot Silver Shadow and I’m very glad I did. Great fit. Great look. Great ease to get on and off quickly. Great company. Great drawstring (I know this doesn’t sound important but trust me when you’re a mile into a swim and feeling the water get in). But most important for me was my performance improvement. Time-wise I am averaging 8 seconds per 100 over TYR and 17 over XTERRA. Since I am a slower swimmer, you may see as great an improvement but I think you will feel and enjoy the streamline impact like I did. I honestly feel more ready for my bike too as the buoyancy is better with this suit (and since I only do shorter triathlons and avoid cold water, shorts over wetsuit is my preference when they’re this good)

And I’ll mention it once again, they look really cool!

I ordered a pair of your buoyancy jammers first day. I put them on it. Ripped in the left leg pretty disappointed didn’t even get a chance to wear them.
