I just used this singlet with the 2XU Active Tri shorts in a sprint triathlon. This singlet has a built in shelf bra and is made out of nice, soft, lightweight wicking material. For the most part, I really like it. BUT...I was really disappointed by the "pockets" on the side/rear. I uploaded a picture that shows a packet of GU inserted into the pocket. During my triathlon, I was repeatedly frustrated by the pocket. I had put a package of GU in to eat on the bike, but it wound up falling out. On the run, I tried several times to shove my small bag of sport beans into the pocket but was stymied. I eventually pushed it in....only to have it fall out not too far down the road.In a triathlon, it's important to have nutrition along the way, but unfortunately this singlet lacks the capacity to carry that nutrition. So even though it feels great, it comes up lacking in practical performance. As I am becoming more of an endurance cyclist and growing an excitement for traithlons, I am learning a lot about the nutrition necessary to keep up performance and carry me to the finish. So while pockets may seem like a silly thing, I now realize how important they are. I was planning to have the GU shortly before hitting the transition from biking to running so that I'd be fueled up for the run. But, instead, the GU fell out of the pocket and I couldn't get the nutrition I needed when I needed it.
This will be a great top for training shorter distances or going out on the bike when I have a Camelbak. But if/when I do my next triathlon, it will be in a different top. There are other tops that have bigger pockets, some of which have a zipper.
