Product description

An evolution of our race-proven marathon short, rebuilt around a single integrated system.

Developed within ProtoLab, it removes the traditional waistband entirely, replacing it with a one-piece waist and pocket construction that sits flatter against the body.

Less pressure. Less movement. Greater comfort at pace. The short stays stable over distance, designed to disappear once worn.

Storage is engineered into the structure. A rear pocket carries four gels, with two more secured in dedicated loops. A zipped pocket holds a phone without bounce. Everything close, quiet, controlled.

The outer is cut from our lightest-ever French woven fabric for airflow and minimal weight. Laser-cut hems, bonded seams, and reinforced side splits preserve freedom while maintaining form under load.

A refined marathon platform, tuned for 26.2 miles where comfort, carry, and speed work as one.
