What are the Talus 2 in 1 Shorts?
They're lightweight and supportive two-layer running shorts, ideal for a wide range of sports, working out at the gym and all aspects of running, from trail running to the local park run.
What are they made from?
Rab has used a lightweight Matrix™ softshell material for the outer shorts and a stretchy Flexile™ 100 fabric for the inner shorts to deliver a balance of comfort, coverage and performance.
Matrix™ single-weave stretch nylon comprises polyamide and elastane, providing the fabric with good levels of both durability and stretch. Matrix™ is wind-resistant, air-permeable and offers excellent levels of breathability. This comfortable material also provides UPF protection to shield your skin from sun exposure. It's also exceptionally light and stretchy, offering unhindered movement for moving fast and dynamically.
Flexile™ 100 is a lightweight, extra-breathable nylon and elastane stretch knit fabric. Made with a specialised blend of polyamide and elastane fibres, Flexile™ 100 offers a durable layer of moisture-wicking technology that is flexible and supportive - perfect for a comfortable next-to-skin layer.
Both the inner and outer shorts are finished with a fluorocarbon-free DWR (durable water repellent) to help the shorts shed light rain and moisture. However, please note it doesn't mean the material is waterproof. Fluorocarbon-free treatments are much more environmentally responsible than traditional DWR treatments because they don't use harmful forever chemicals that damage our environment and ecosystems.
What are their features?
The Talus 2 in 1 Shorts feature a deep stretch waistband which is both comfortable and compressive for a reassuringly secure fit, that won't feel like it's digging in or rubbing during your run.
The snug, compressive feeling is mirrored in the supportive inner shorts, constructed with flatlock seams to reduce the risk of chafing and silicone grips to the bottom hem to stop them from riding up.
In contrast, the outer shorts are light and airy, with bonded side splits for unrestricted movement, and are made from a thin softshell fabric for light protection from the elements.
For storage, you'll find an integrated back yoke pocket ideal for storing energy gels and two thigh mesh stash pockets on the inner shorts, perfect for storing a mobile phone and trail snacks.
The shorts are finished with reflective branding for increased visibility to other road users in low light.
