Expert  852    Evergreen, Colorado Bronze member |  Subject: Women's Desoto Tri ClothesHey Girls, I'm looking for opinions from people who have desoto tri clothes (women's tri shorts, tri support top, or tri top w/zipper). There are a few places having pretty good closeouts on last year's stuff, and I was going to pick up a top and shorts, but wanted to hear some opinions first. Do you like them? How do they fit? Are the tops generally short or long? The only people I know who wear Desoto are guys, so I could really use some female opinions on fit etc. Thanks!!! Stacey |

Pro 5153 Helena, MT | Subject: RE: Women's Desoto Tri Clothes I have DeSoto Tri Shorts and like them. They are my only tri shorts, so I can't say I have anything to compare them to... They seem a little short, but no shorter than the shorts in your avatar. Now, don't be stingy! Where are these great closeouts?! |

Expert 852 Evergreen, Colorado Bronze member | Subject: RE: Women's Desoto Tri Clothes Seems like a bunch of places are having sales on last year's stuff right now, in a bunch of different brands. A few places have the desoto tops for <$30, so I figured if anyone had a good review, I'd buy one. Check out: www.trivillage.com (good deals on Zoot and they have lots of sizes!) There, now no one can accuse me of being stingy |

Regular 67 Los Angeles, CA | Subject: RE: Women's Desoto Tri Clothes I bought both a tri support top and a tri top with zipper on closeout myself a couple months ago. I love the zipper top, and I wore it in my first tri w/ a sports bra underneath. It was very quick drying, comfortable and I liked the zipper. I also wear it training. I didn't like the support top as much. The support isn't great, and the elastic in the arm holes is a little uncomfortable. |

Extreme Veteran 724 Delray Beach, FL | Subject: RE: Women's Desoto Tri Clothes I got some of their closeout clothes: one pair of tri shorts for $30, one skinsuit for $25 and a pair of gloves. I really like them. Good quality! The skinsuit has the zipper on the back but it does not matter. I got the short size s and it was fine for me but the skinsuit was a little small for me. I thought about return it but I hope by the time of the race I lost the lbs I have extra and can fit it better  BTW the skinsuit does not have bra support. Since I am 34A it does not matter to me. I do not need the extra support. If you do, make sure it is detailed on the description. Some of the sizes are gone, I hope you find something: http://www.desotosport.com/products/specials.asp Edited by clflgrl 2005-03-28 4:40 PM |

Pro 4206 Los Angeles, CA | Subject: RE: Women's Desoto Tri Clothes I'll chime in a little. I have the desoto tri shorts that's unisex. If you ever have a question about sizing, email Emilio at desoto personally with your measurements and he will let you know the exact size. Edited by auto208562 2005-03-28 4:36 PM |

Pro 4174 Keller, Texas | Subject: RE: Women's Desoto Tri Clothes I Just got some DeSoto closeouts from Trisports. I have worn the shorts (unixes) and they were very confortable. I am used to riding in bike shorts, so the thinner padding did take some getting used to. I also got the top with the bra built in. I have only tried it on, but it feels comfortable and seems to have good support (I am pretty small up top so that might not be saying alot). I did find their size charts a little confusing. By one measurement I was a small, another a large and another an XL. I compormised on a Large and everything seems to fit good. Edited by dodgersmom 2005-03-29 1:09 PM |
