Troubleshooting
Chafing still occurs
Ensure the shorts are the correct size and fit snugly without being too tight. Check for any seams or tags that might be causing irritation and consider using a chamois cream for added protection.
Shorts feel too warm
While designed for breathability, in extreme heat, ensure proper ventilation by wearing a moisture-wicking base layer if preferred. Ensure the shorts are not overly tight, which can restrict airflow.
Seams feel uncomfortable
Inspect the seams for any irregularities. If a seam feels rough, try washing the shorts again as residual manufacturing material can sometimes cause discomfort. For persistent issues, consider a different size or model.
