ZONE3 Premium Buoyancy Shorts 5/3 mm
ZONE3 Premium Buoyancy Shorts are an advanced version of the swim-training shorts first introduced by the brand in 2008. Their construction provides extra lift through the hips and legs to help swimmers and triathletes work on body position and technique.
They are particularly useful for swimmers whose legs sit low in the water. Added buoyancy raises the lower body, supports balance and lets the swimmer focus on the stroke.
Benefits
- Enhanced buoyancy: 5 mm Yamamoto Aerodome side panels contain air cells and are stated to provide approximately 30% more buoyancy than standard neoprene;
- Supported body position: the panel layout raises the legs and supports hip rotation;
- Smooth surface: the SCS Nano coating is designed to reduce friction in the water;
- Comfort: front and rear panels use light, flexible 3 mm Yamamoto #39 SCS neoprene;

- Wetsuit-grade construction: glued and stitched seams.
