FAQs
What is ProTek technology?
ProTek is Castore's technology that incorporates a water-repellent coating into the fabric, designed to help you stay comfortable and perform better by repelling light moisture and water.
What is the inseam length of these shorts?
These shorts have a 5-inch inseam, offering a shorter cut for enhanced freedom of movement.
Are these shorts suitable for swimming?
While the shorts have a water-repellent coating, they are designed for training and athletic activities, not as swimwear. Prolonged submersion may affect the fabric and its properties.
How should I wash these shorts?
Machine wash cold with similar colors and use a mild detergent. Avoid bleach. Tumble dry on low heat or hang dry.
Can I store my phone in the zipped pockets?
Yes, the zipped pockets are designed to securely hold items like a phone, keys, or wallet during physical activity.
What material are these shorts made from?
They are made from a blend of 88% polyester and 12% elastane woven fabric.
Are there other color or size options available?
This guide is for the Black - S size. Please check the product listing for availability of other colors and sizes.
Troubleshooting
Waistband feels too loose or too tight.
Ensure the drawstring is properly tied for a secure fit. If the waistband consistently feels uncomfortable, consider if the size is appropriate for your body type.
Zippers are sticking.
Gently try to work the zipper back and forth. Avoid pulling forcefully. If persistent, a small amount of graphite (from a pencil tip) or a silicone-based lubricant can help.
Water-repellent property seems reduced.
The effectiveness of the water-repellent treatment can decrease over time. Consider using a performance wash or re-waterproofing spray designed for athletic apparel, following the product's instructions.
Shorts feel restrictive during movement.
Verify that the size is correct. The fabric blend is designed for flexibility, so restriction may indicate a size issue or a very specific, extreme range of motion not typical for the intended use.
