THE IMPACT SHORT

Developed in collaboration with elite strength trainers, the Impact Short marks a major leap forward for in-gym performance gear.

THE WEAR TESTERS

Developed in collaboration with hybrid athletes and trainers Jacob Heppner and Juan Leija, the Impact Short underwent exhaustive wear testing to produce a final product that performed to their needs. We tried a variety of shell materials, liner constructions, paneling configurations, and waistband variants before settling on a combination that could withstand constant applied forces while allowing a virtually unlimited range of motion.

A seasoned veteran of the CrossFit Games with 3 top-10 finishes, Jacob now runs Grit Performance, a gym and training facility located on the outskirts of Kansas City. While he’s retired from CrossFit competition, he still incorporates explosive movements into his training blocks as he prepares for his next challenge–The Tactical Games.

"For me, the two most important aspects of any piece of gear are functionality and durability. The Impact Short hits both of those perfectly. The liner doesn’t ride up and it actually fits well around my thighs without squeezing me. I also love the material, it feels like it can really take a beating."
