When we set out to make this short, the idea was to make the short that we would grab the moment it's dry after being washed, no matter what kind of ride is on the calendar for that day. So that's what we did. First, we found a soft, stretchy fabric that feels amazing on the skin the second you put the short on. This fabric forms and moves with the body without being tight or constrictive. We paid extra attention to the fit to make sure everything stays where you want it, but we added silicone gripper at the leg ending just to make sure your tan line stays crisp. Of course, we've used our Progetto X2 Air Donna seat pad for all-day comfort. Finally, we added some extra details like reflective tabs for added safety. All of this makes the Espresso our, and your, new favorite short.
