Making the commitment: wardrobe!

I actually wore the mens outfit in blue at IM. It worked fine. I just had a jog bra underneath.

I'm liking this one, I really like the idea of "longer cut". (no tummy blobble!) Looks like I'd be a Medium. Hmmm, blue and white are all that's left, but I kinda dig the orange.

Thanks, Wahine! I'll be looking at men's 2XU now that I know they fit women, too!

Here's a link on TE to me in my men's tri outfit. It was a medium, I prolly shoulda had a small. It worked though. I love the material and the chamois.

Wahine, that outfit looks like it fits great. That is the kind of thing I can imagine myself buying. Many of the women's versions just look like I would fall out of them, top and bottom!

The only reason I should have had a small is because the girth around my mid section was a little loose and that allowed for some chafing over my upper abs. The arm holes were also a little big. But you can see from the photo that the lenght of the top is fabulous, tons of coverage. That part I loved.

If a medium was loose on you, then it should be nice and snug on me.

Hot diggity! More goodies to order!

I just checked DeSoto's website and found some cool new 2008 stuff. Spendy though, but the Forza Tri shorts and top look pretty cool this year. Can also be worn under the wetsuit if necessary.

Ooooooooo. That is nice!

Just got my Sugoi Piston tri shorts! They are so perfect, exactly what I'd hoped they'd be!

Oooh, those are nice Knot. I love tri shorts so much more than the thick padded shorts I was wearing. Less chafe and more comfy for long rides and boy do they breathe better "down there".

thread drift... Wahine - I still can't believe they considered you an Athena. No disrespect to any Athena's out there, but not all triathlete women are built like a stick. Actually, most aren't. Strange to make you one. Okay, drift over. :o
