Ski Apparel: HEAD Race Short Unisex
Anyone who regularly trains for slalom or giant slalom knows the importance of flexible ski apparel. The HEAD Race Short Unisex was specifically developed for racers who want to stay warm before and after their run, without having to take off their ski boots every time. Unlike classic ski pants, the Race Short can be put on or taken off in a matter of seconds thanks to full-length side zippers. This is precisely why it has been standard equipment in race training, competitions, and the World Cup for years.
Ski Apparel for Race Training and Competition
During long waiting times at the start or on lift rides, leg muscles can quickly cool down. The HEAD Race Short keeps muscles warm without restricting freedom of movement. This makes it the ideal addition over a race suit or training gear.
Especially in alpine ski racing, every little detail counts. Warm muscles react faster, reduce the risk of injury, and ensure that the first run can be skied just as precisely as the last.

Why the HEAD Race Short Excels in Racing
Every minute counts in race training. Nobody wants to take off their ski boots just before the start to put on an extra pair of pants. This is where the HEAD Race Short truly shines.
The long side zippers allow the pants to be put on or taken off over a race suit and ski boots in seconds. This saves time and keeps the body comfortably warm right up until the start.
The most important advantages in daily race use:
- Quick on and off without removing ski boots
- Reliably keeps thigh muscles warm
- Ideal between training runs and competitions
- Lightweight material for high wearing comfort
- Perfect complement to HEAD race apparel
Compared to conventional ski pants, these Race Shorts were consistently developed for daily training. Leisure models do not offer this flexibility and are usually much more cumbersome to handle.
Especially in race training, skiers benefit from:
- consistently warm muscles
- more comfort during long waiting times
- quick transitions between training and start
- less cooling on cold race days
- professional race equipment
Our Advice from Racing
From our experience, race shorts are an essential part of every ambitious racer's basic equipment.
Especially on cold training days or during longer competitions, the difference is immediately noticeable. Keeping muscles warm maintains flexibility and allows for a much more relaxed start to the run.
Particularly suitable for:
- Racers in slalom and giant slalom
- FIS athletes
- Junior racers
- Ski clubs
- Coaches
- Ambitious skiers
Those who only ski occasionally usually do not need this type of ski clothing. However, those who train regularly or race will not want to miss the comfort and function after just a few uses.
Care Instructions
The HEAD Race Short should be thoroughly dried after each training session and washed according to the care label. Closing zippers during washing extends their lifespan. Fabric softener should be avoided so that the functional material retains its water-repellent properties long-term.
