The trifunction = a 3-in-1 product!
A triathlete's iconic accessory, the trifonction is a must-have and a triathlon essential:
- For swimming, its material is similar to that of a swimsuit, and its internal foam skin is perforated and won't get waterlogged.
- For cycling, foam skin improves seating comfort. The tri-function also doubles as a cycling shorts, to be worn without underwear.
- When running, its thin skin ensures comfort and lightness.
All you have to do is cross the finish line.
Dry quickly!
Thanks to the material of this tri-function, you'll dry ultra-fast during your swim/bike transition, so you won't pedal wet. And yes, so you don't lose any time during this transition, you'll be swimming with your tri-function under your neoprene wetsuit!
What's more, we've added a large strip of mesh to wick away perspiration where your body sweats the most: your spine.
The little details that make all the difference!
- This tri-functional garment features a siliconized thigh band to prevent the bottom from shifting when wearing or putting on a neoprene wetsuit for swimming.
- A front zipper running down to the navel lets you breathe while running, and ensures quick donning! What's more, this zip has an internal protection strip to prevent chafing.
- Finally, your armpits don't come into contact with the material, so they don't get irritated.
A trifunction to suit every body type!
This tri-function has been designed to embrace the different morphological zones characteristic of men.
Overall, the material used for this tri-function is lighter on the top and has a little more support on the bottom. Without compressing you, it provides all the support you need for a natural, comfortable fit. As for the internal foam, it follows your male morphology perfectly.
A product designed to carry nutrition.
To reach the finish line of a short-distance triathlon (between 1 and 3 hours of effort), you need to think about eating! This trifunction features a pocket on the right thigh: no more fumbling blindly in your pockets looking for supplies, you can see everything! This pocket can hold up to 2 bars and/or gels and is thermoformed: with no seams or fastenings, it doesn't feel tight, and the products inside are under tension and won't move.
Trifonction, combi triathlon, trifonction triathlon...what's the difference?
None at all! It's the same type of triathlon suit, a 3-in-1 combi: it's up to you to choose the term you prefer. Be careful not to confuse it with a neoprene suit, which provides buoyancy and thermal insulation for the swimming part.
Do I need an extra wetsuit to swim?
It all depends on the water temperature!
The buoyancy of a neoprene wetsuit makes it ideal for swimming. Good to know: the French Triathlon Federation prohibits the use of wetsuits for swimming if the water temperature exceeds 24°C, and makes them compulsory if the temperature drops below 16°C. Between 16 and 24°C, it's up to you.
With or without underwear?
We encourage you not to wear briefs or boxer shorts to avoid unnecessary chafing.
