Fall Training Wear

This is a new style of DeSoto's great Polypro Jersey. New features include the speed-skater-style hood and thumb tabs, two angled side pockets, and contrast flatstitch seams, This piece is unisex.  It is made of Polyolefin, a new generation of polypropylene. It is the ultimate fabric to use as a first-layer for any cold weather activity. It not only keeps you warm, it is odor-resistant and has moisture-transfer properties that move moisture away from the skin to the surface of the fabric where it evaporates. It is designed to perform best when worn tight against the skin.  This is company founder, Emilio De Soto's single favorite garment. He travels with it everywhere. He uses it not only for running and for wearing in the winter under a cycling jersey, but also as his base layer for snowboarding, and even packs it in his carry-on for those chilly airline flights.

Please note this item fits on the small side.

This is a lightweight vest (weighs 2.3 oz = 65 gm) made of a laminated rip-stop nylon. It is windproof, water-resistant, warm, and extremely light weight. This combination keeps your core warm on chilly rides and fast decents, yet allows your body to breathe on long climbs. Rather than having a mesh back like most cycling vests, it is rip-stop so it works great for for cycling and running. It features a YKK molded full front zipper with a high-neck. This vest compacts to the size an Altoid box or a cigarette box.

Men's Training Wear

  Now larger fitting.

A relaxed-fitting crew neck training shirt made of cool, quick-drying and moisture-transporting Skin Cooler® Fabric. It is smooth texture and much larger cut than the 2009 model. Unisex in design and fit, it features contrast stitching and wicking properties that make it ideal for multiple types of exercise and workouts.

Your hamstrings and quadriceps will thank you for the incredible support offered by the Forza Compressor™ fabric and double leg band. De Soto's famous innovative 400-Mile™ pad floats and stretches which means it can be used as a race piece in a triathlon. On the bike, the pad stretches with the short and follows your skin as it moves with every pedal stroke, eliminating the friction that can cause irritation or rashes.

This 11-panel bike short has a Carrera™ Piqué Abdomen panel to hold in your midsection, and to give you bit more breathability in front, just above the pad. Drawstring elastic waist, Curvilinear™ seam lines, contrast flat stitch, and the 400-Mile™ Pad make it the most comfortable short money can buy. It has 3 pockets (one on each leg, and one in back) that fit cell phones, mp3 players, fuel packets, and most sunglasses. One of the great features of this short is what it does not have…no leg gripper, so there is no tight binding around the thighs. The short stays down and in place since it is made of Forza Compressor™.Emilio gave these shorts and bibs the "400-Mile" name from product testing consisting of 400 miles over 4 days. His logic was that many shorts feel fine for 100+ mile rides. The real question is how does that saddle feel when you get on the bike the next morning for another 100 miles...and the next morning? This was the inspiration for the design, the pad, and the name.

A perfect scenario, as the airflow provided by your helmet vents truly accelerates the cooling effect provided by this helmet beanie! Constructed of Skin Cooler™ Stretch, this proprietary moisture-radiating material is cool and light against your head, and fits well under your helmet. Not only does it keep you head cool, protect you from the sun, it also keeps the sweat from rolling down into your eyes! The stretch of the fabric combined with your helmet holding it in place really does allow this helmet beanie to fit from small to really large heads.

Constructed of the same Forza Compressor™ fabric used in De Soto's entire Forza line, this innovative piece is not for recovery, but rather to wear in racing. It has been  deliberately designed to stop just above the foot. De Soto's logic is that since the vast majority of triathletes don’t wear socks, you can train and race in them and reap the benefits of its support factor. Forza Compressor lifts and support the muscles and dampens the vibration which occurs with every isometric flex.  Again this product offer the same effect as De Soto's Forza Grupo. It is lift and support. It features Curvilinear™ seam lines and contrast micro flat stitching.

We recommend you wear it under your wetsuit to save yourself time in transition.
