FAQs
What is ProTek technology?
ProTek technology in these shorts refers to the fabric's engineered properties designed to help you adapt to your environment, likely focusing on breathability and protective qualities.
Are these shorts suitable for swimming?
These shorts are designed for training and athletic activities, not specifically for swimming. While they have water-repellent properties, they are made from polyester and elastane, which are not ideal for prolonged submersion.
What is the material composition of the shorts?
The shorts are made from a woven fabric consisting of 88% polyester and 12% elastane.
How do I determine the right size?
Refer to the brand's sizing chart for accurate measurements. Ensure you measure your waist and consider the inseam length preference.
Can I wear these for everyday casual wear?
While the shorts are functional, their athletic design means they are best suited for sports and training. However, some individuals may choose to wear them for very casual, active-oriented outings.
How long will the water-repellent feature last?
The longevity of the water-repellent feature depends on usage and care. Regular washing, especially with harsh detergents or fabric softeners, can reduce its effectiveness over time. Following the care instructions will help maintain this property.
Troubleshooting
Shorts feel tight despite correct size
Ensure the waistband is not twisted and lies flat. Check if the fabric has been over-dried, which can sometimes cause stiffness. Gentle stretching while damp can help.
Water repellency seems reduced
Wash the shorts according to care instructions and avoid fabric softeners. Consider a re-waterproofing treatment specifically designed for athletic apparel if the issue persists after several washes.
Zipper on pocket is difficult to operate
Gently pull the zipper with even pressure. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper teeth. A small amount of silicone lubricant or graphite from a pencil on the zipper teeth can help.
