Epixgear Product Review

I have been a sponsored Epixgear athlete for 4 years and have worn a lot of their clothing, almost on a daily basis while training and racing. Here are a few of my thoughts on the Fit & Durability of a few products and any Improvements I think they could make. 

​The GoFierce Tri Top & Shorts is one I use often in training, I have even raced in the shorts. ​

Fit: 
The shorts fit great, they do not come up too high on my waist and they don’t ride up when you are riding and what I like most are the open mesh pockets on each side, where I can fit a couple gels or anything else I need to bring with me, especially in the summer when it is hot and I don’t wear a jersey top I still have some pockets that are easy to access while riding or running. 

Durability:
I have had these shorts and top for over 2 years now. They have faded a little bit that is expected with how much I have used them. They have not ripped at all and are still in great shape. 

Improvements:
I have no complaints about the shorts but the tri top can get a little warm in the summer. I live in FL and sweat a lot- the top is a little thick.  A thinner more breathable material may help.  This top is a couple years old and the material Epix has been using lately is an improvement from this tri top. ​

​​The Custom Design Racing Kit is one of my favorites.  I don’t prefer sleeves while I am racing and usually get the custom design Sleeveless 1 Piece Airflow Tri Suit.

Fit:
The racing kit is snug around your legs and torso but is not too tight around your shoulders.  It is a slightly stretchy material and is very comfortable while swimming, on the bike and while running.  The back and side is a very thin, breathable material.  There is also a back zipper pocket + a mesh side pocket on each side. The back zipper can be accessed while racing.  The side pockets are great for storing empty gel wrappers during a race so you don’t get a penalty for littering! 

Durability:
I have used my racing kits all season and never had it rip or any problems with the zippers.  The material holds up very well and they look the same as when I first got them. 

Improvement:
Since the custom design racing kit is custom made for and by you, I really don’t have any improvements I would like to see. I really like the new improved air flow material on the back and sides.  Keeps you cool while racing.  You can pick your own colors, print and choose front or back zipper etc. Its a great racing kit!

Urbo Women’s Cycling Shorts and Jersey is one I use in training often.  The cycling shorts are great for long rides. One rear zipper pocket on the shorts and the cycling top has lots of pockets and one on each side has zippers. ​

Fit:
The shorts are very comfortable, stretchy and has plenty of padding that helps keep things comfortable on the long rides!   The top is a lighter breathable material and is also a little stretchy for a snug comfortable fit. 

Durability:
I wear the cycling shorts and jersey often, I have had it for about a year and it looks exactly the same as when I got it.

Improvements:
The shorts come up a little high on my waist but from person to person the preference pry changes.  The shorts also don’t have the mesh side pockets which are easier to access while riding than the rear zipper that is on shorts.  I do love the colors and material on this one!
