Pulled on over a speed suit, the POC Men's Race Shorts add a layer of stretchy, durable coverage for training and race day. They're built to go on and off quickly even in ski boots, and cut so they don't fight you in a tuck. For alpine racers, they're a simple piece of kit that makes the cold, awkward moments in the start area easier.

Why we like it:

The full-length leg zippers are the standout; they run the length of each leg so you can throw the shorts on or peel them off without removing your boots, something anyone who has wrestled with warm-ups in a lift line will appreciate.

Features and Functions:

A durable stretch fabric is the core of the shorts, tough enough for repeated on-off cycles while still moving with you in a racing stance. Full-length zippers on each leg make them easy to pull on and off over ski boots, and the pulls are sized to work with gloves on. The cut is shaped specifically for a race position to keep everything comfortable when you fold into a tuck.

Fit and Sizing:

These are cut to sit over a speed suit and a base layer, so they run roomy by design. The race-position cut adds room where you need it in a tuck. Sizing is straightforward across the men's range.

Bottom Line:

These are a convenience piece for training and race day, best for racers who need a quick warm-up layer over a speed suit. They shine in the start area, where getting dressed and undressed fast matters. Not a technical short for skiing runs, but exactly right for their job.
