Buoyancy Shorts

Designed to support body position and swim efficiency, the ZONE3 buoyancy shorts collection offers a focused training solution for swimmers and triathletes looking to improve technique and confidence in the water. Ideal for pool training and open water sessions, buoyancy shorts help replicate the lift and balance of a wetsuit while allowing unrestricted upper-body movement.
ZONE3 buoyancy shorts are engineered to lift the hips and legs into a more streamlined position, reducing drag and encouraging a flatter, more efficient swim posture. By supporting the lower body, they allow swimmers to focus on stroke mechanics, rotation, and breathing without compensating for sinking legs. This makes them a valuable tool for technique development, endurance training, and building confidence ahead of wetsuit swims.
Constructed with flexible, close-fitting materials, buoyancy shorts are designed to move naturally with the body while remaining secure during continuous swimming. The streamlined shape minimises resistance, while durable construction ensures they maintain performance over repeated training sessions. Easy to put on and remove, they are a practical addition to both pool and open water training routines.
Whether you’re refining swim technique, transitioning between pool and wetsuit training, or looking for added support during endurance sessions, the ZONE3 buoyancy shorts range delivers targeted performance where it matters most. Designed to support efficient movement and consistent progress in the water, they’re a simple but effective tool for improving swim efficiency session after session.
