The outer short drapes loose around the thigh with a softly curved hem hitting mid-thigh on a 170cm / 5'7" model. The inner tight sits flush against the leg ending just above the outer hem — long enough to prevent chafing, short enough to stay invisible. Wide elastic waistband sits at the natural waist. Hidden pocket in the inner tight (right side) fits a phone case, card, key, or gel. Take your true size for a relaxed outer / supportive inner; size down if you prefer a closer outer fit. Ideal for running, training, yoga, hiking, and travel. The ZUBEK Difference Merino is the original performance fabric. Sheep evolved it to regulate body temperature across forty-degree swings — desert noon to mountain night, same fleece. The fiber is hollow at the core: it pulls sweat off your skin as vapor before it ever becomes wet, and resists bacterial odor naturally without chemical treatments. Polyester does none of this — it traps heat, holds moisture, breeds bacteria, and sheds microplastics into your skin every time you sweat. We use natural finishing instead of standard superwash — so the fiber keeps its natural intelligence instead of getting coated in synthetic resin. Care Machine wash cold (30°C) on gentle cycle — natural finish is machine-wash-friendly. Lay flat to dry — never tumble dry. Do not bleach. Skip fabric softener — it coats fibers and reduces breathability. Store folded, away from direct sunlight. Merino is naturally odor-resistant — wash less, wear more. OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100 certified — every component independently tested against 1,000+ harmful substances and verified below scientifically established thresholds. No PFAS, no PFC, no quick-dry chemistry, no stain repellents. Part of the COCOA drop.
