Zoot were born in Kona during the 1980s and their latest release is the ladies’ Ultra Tri Racesuit. Made from a lightweight fabric, the suit boasts the brand’s BIOwrap muscle support, designed to offer the benefits of compression wear as well as sun protection.

Other neat features include the leg hem design, which successfully eliminated the traditional leg gripper but still kept the shorts securely in place, and a welcoming low-profile fleece pad that was quick-drying in the saddle and added to the flattering design.

The additional internal bra offered support with a handy front zipper to open it up for easy on-and-off (it won’t be supportive enough, however, for big-busted women). But with the £150 price tag taking it well into the top-end bracket, these smart design features are something that you should expect, nay demand.
