FAQs

What material are these cycling shorts made from?

The Miso High Waisted Cycling Shorts are made from a blend of 95% Cotton and 5% Elastane, providing a balance of breathability, softness, and stretch.

Are these shorts suitable for intense cycling or workouts?

These shorts are ideal for general workouts, casual cycling, and athleisure wear. While they offer comfort and support, for very intense or long-duration activities, specialized performance wear might offer more technical benefits like advanced moisture-wicking or padding.

How should I wash my Miso High Waisted Cycling Shorts?

They are machine washable. We recommend washing them on a gentle cycle with cold or lukewarm water and using a mild detergent. Always refer to the care label for specific instructions.

Can I tumble dry these shorts?

It is best to air dry these shorts to maintain their shape and fabric integrity. High heat from tumble drying can cause cotton to shrink or damage the elastane fibers. If absolutely necessary, use the lowest heat setting.

What is the benefit of the high waist design?

The high waist design offers a flattering fit, provides gentle core support, and ensures the shorts stay comfortably in place during movement, preventing them from rolling down.

Do these shorts help prevent chafing?

Yes, they feature flat lock seams specifically designed to minimize friction and reduce the likelihood of chafing, enhancing comfort during wear.

Troubleshooting

Shorts feel too tight or uncomfortable around the waist/thighs.

Ensure you have selected the correct size. While the elasticated waistband offers flexibility, an incorrect size can still cause discomfort. If uncertain, compare your measurements against a sizing guide.

Experiencing minor chafing despite flat lock seams during activity.

Flat lock seams significantly reduce chafing, but prolonged or intense activity, or an imperfect fit, can still lead to some friction. Ensure the shorts are not bunched up and are fitting smoothly. For very long sessions, consider applying an anti-chafing balm to susceptible areas.

Fabric feels less soft or has shrunk after washing.

This often occurs if care instructions are not followed. Ensure you are machine washing on a gentle cycle with appropriate water temperature and avoiding high heat in the dryer. Always air dry or use a very low heat setting if tumble drying is absolutely necessary.

Shorts are not providing enough support for intense workouts.

While these shorts offer core support, they are designed for versatility across various activities. For very high-intensity training that requires maximum compression or highly specialized support, you might consider activewear specifically engineered for those demands.
