Mens Triathlon Shorts with Adjustable Drawstring and Chamois - Fast

In this review the MY KILOMETRE Mens Triathlon Shorts stand out as a practical option for athletes who need a single short that performs across swim, bike and run. The single biggest reason to buy is the combination of an aero-focused multi density chamois and easy-reach side pockets, which together let a triathlete stay fuelled and comfortable without changing garments. Constructed from a chlorine resistant, UPF 50+ blend with moderate compression, these shorts are aimed at multisport training and long-distance race use.

Key Features

• Fabric blend: The regenerated polyamide and spandex mix gives a light, durable feel with moderate compression for muscle support during long efforts.
• Chlorine resistant: Built to tolerate indoor pool swims so the same short can be used through swim-bike-run sessions without rapid degradation.
• MK TRI 2.0 chamois: A multi density pad shaped for the aero position that provides cushioning on the bike while remaining comfortable for the run.
• Accessible side pockets: Nutrition mesh pockets on each leg keep gels and chews within easy reach on the bike or while running between aid stations.
• Leg grippers: Ultra-thin elastic grippers conform to the leg for a secure fit without silicone bands and reduce restriction during pedaling and stride.
• Flat locked stitching: Seams follow body contours to help prevent chafing on long rides and runs and increase garment durability.

Who It's For

The shorts are best for triathletes and multisport athletes who want one garment that can handle pool swims, cycling and running, especially in training or long-distance events where storage and comfort matter. The moderate compression and UPF 50+ protection make them a good everyday training short for outdoor sessions and open-water practice.

Athletes who need heavy winter insulation, extremely thick padding for ultra-endurance bike-only events, or a race-specific wetsuit alternative should look elsewhere. Riders who prefer silicone grippers or very aggressive compression will also want to try different models.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Comfortable multi density chamois that supports aero position and transitions well to the run.
• Convenient mesh side pockets for gels and chews that are accessible while riding or running.
• Chlorine resistance and UPF 50+ protection let the shorts be used for pool sessions and outdoor training.
• Flat locked seams and ultra-thin leg grippers reduce chafing and improve fit during long efforts.

Cons

• Moderate padding may not satisfy riders who want very thick cushioning for long solo road rides.
• Compression level is moderate, so athletes seeking a very tight race-fit may prefer a different cut.
