Please note that these are black. The short tights are made from an Italian blend of 57% nylon and 43% elastane, which ensures a highly compressive fit. The dense knit hits all the essential performance notes; It’s soft and breathable with plenty of stretch and supports quick-drying for your sweatiest sessions. Whether you're sprinting at speeds that will ensure a PR or putting in abundant mileage for the sake of distance, the Allston is designed to keep you held in so that you feel secure as you give it your all. Combining sleek and comfortable compression with temperature-regulating breathability, the 5.25" Allston Shorts’ Italian-made fabric blend offers the highest performance when it matters. At the cuffs, we use silicon grippers to ensure these tights won’t ride up or dig in. The short tights feature simple storage, streamlined with one external drop in pocket for fuel along the rear yoke. The ergonomic design allows for easy access from the top of the waistband, an ideal entry point to complement a fast run, from the mile to the marathon.
