Cornelia | Women's Shorts
Cornelia* is the first Spiridon technical short . It is part of our new Anthology collection, which weaves the link between the history of Spiridon and our vision of technical outdoor creation.
100% Made in Europe (from the origin of the yarn to the manufacturing, including knitting).
Designed in part with the ecological Italian fiber Q-Nova ® (recycled polyamide), the Cornelia shorts stand out for their durable material and vintage look.
To achieve this, we developed a specific technical material in Spain (Barcelona), which explains its 12 months of development. It is resistant , breathable , of top premium quality and optimizes moisture transfer . It also stands out for its style with its "piqué-quadrillé" knitting . This super pleasant, supple and light material (150 g for size M shorts) has a dry but "bouncy" feel which gives it almost a rare and innovative "cottony" appearance. The result: a unique, ecological and stylish Spiridon silhouette!
Cornelia pairs perfectly with the Summit tank top, the Anthology t-shirt and the Salvan long sleeve .

Collection identity
On the left thigh, the bird "Road Runner" , designed in 1973 by Karel Matejovsky as a nod to Fred Lebow's New York Road Runners Club. At the top, a broken line , like an exit from the track to broaden horizons beyond the running lanes and the sole objective of performance. A step aside, in the spirit of Spiridon, to reclaim nature and taste this unique feeling of freedom that running provides.

The waist is drawn with a flat tricolor jacquard lace—decorated with our iconic orange—and stopped by engraved aglets to tie on the outside, for a confident vintage touch.

Cornelia* , in tribute to Cornelia Bürki, the first middle-distance athlete to wear Spiridon during official meetings: a way of showing her adherence to Spiridon's values to include women in our sport. Voted Sportswoman of the Year in 1978, she still holds the Swiss record for the 2,000 meters at 5 min 35 s.
