What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying:"I raced in the GOREWEAR Contest Race Short Tight and the 4-way stretch fabric moved so naturally with my stride that I forgot I was wearing anything structured at all. The back zip pocket held my gel securely through the whole effort and nothing shifted, bunched, or distracted me from the work."Race day demands that everything on your body earns its place. The GOREWEAR Contest Race Short Tight starts from a simple idea: superlight, supportive, and completely out of your way when the gun goes off. At just 2. 4 oz and built from a 4-way stretch polyamide and elastane blend, it moves with every stride rather than against it, fitting close to the body without ever feeling constricting. GOREWEAR kept the design deliberately minimal because clutter has no place on the start line. A back zip pocket secures your essentials and a left thigh pocket gives you one more option without adding bulk. Quick-drying fabric handles sweat efficiently so nothing weighs you down mid-race, and reflective details cover visibility on early morning efforts. The elastic waistband stays put through surges, hill repeats, and everything in between.
