For track pants & shorts specifically, track pants sell in autumn and winter in cooler markets and for sports seasons elsewhere; shorts peak for spring and summer orders placed November–February. Our lead time is 35–50 days, plus sea transit of about 18–28 days, so we advise confirming orders early enough to land the goods before the peak rather than during it.
