Men's Tech Race Short

From Ronhill

If any product symbolises the deep heritage we have in running this would be it. Ron first pioneered the split racing short when stood on the start line of a race over 55 years ago. Frustrated with the lack of freedom his shorts were giving him he ripped the sides of them so he could maximise his stride.

What was a simple yet primitive solution at that race quickly became a defining classic product in our running movement. Ron took the ripped shorts and prototyped a proper racing version utilising his doctorate in textile chemistry and knowledge of synthetic fabrics to create an iconic product that is now symbolic of race day.

Today’s race short is an evolution of that first design and pays tribute in every thread and design detail to what Ron created on that start line. What led Ron to perform to the highest of his powers also allows you to perform to your greatest potential.

The Tech Race Short is our most technical race short.  The ultralight Aeroweave fabric is a recycled polyester with elastane for great stretch and recovery.  This fabric features a melting yarn, and this enables a mesh like structure to be formed during the manufacturing process which allows for complete airflow.  The inner brief uses a super light recycled polyester knit fabric for support and breathability.
