The challenge

The Interval Short is built for versatility. Constructed with four-way stretch to ensure maximum range of motion and a cling-free, ultra-wicking shell for mobility, the Interval Short was constructed to handle everything from conventional strength workouts to unconventional, highly-technical sets. As a pro skateboarder, Neen believes there’s a time and place for all types of training and for strengthening from all angles. That’s why he needs a short that can handle every workout he throws at it, from explosive isolated one legged movements to mobility drills.
