The North Face 24/7 Shorts are engineered to support your active lifestyle with practical benefits.
Staying Dry with FlashDry
FlashDry technology is at the core of these shorts' performance. When you sweat, the fabric actively pulls moisture from your skin to the fabric's surface, where it spreads out. This increased surface area allows for much faster evaporation compared to standard fabrics, helping you remain dry and comfortable even during intense workouts or hot days. This means less clamminess and a consistently fresh feel.
Enhanced Breathability
The integrated mesh venting plays a crucial role in maintaining comfort. These ventilation zones allow for continuous air circulation, helping to dissipate heat and prevent your body from overheating. Whether you're running, cycling, or just enjoying a casual stroll, the constant airflow contributes to a cooler wearing experience.
Practical Storage
The secure zip stash pocket is a thoughtful addition for any active individual. It's perfectly sized for essential items you don't want to lose, such as house keys, a credit card, or wireless earbuds. This eliminates the need for bulky armbands or waist packs for small valuables.
Versatile Applications
These shorts are genuinely '24/7' in their versatility. They are excellent for:
Gym Workouts: Stay dry and focused during your training sessions.
Running & Hiking: Enjoy comfort on trails or urban routes with optimal moisture management.
Beach & Poolside: Quick-drying properties make them suitable for transitioning from water activities to relaxation.
Casual Wear: Their comfortable fit and stylish design make them a great choice for everyday wear during warmer months.
Getting Started
These shorts require no complex setup. Simply put them on and adjust the rib waistband using the internal drawcord to achieve your desired fit. Ensure the fit is snug enough to stay in place during movement but not so tight that it restricts comfort or circulation.
Compatibility
The North Face 24/7 Shorts are designed for adults and complement a wide range of athletic and casual wear. They are ideal for pairing with performance t-shirts, athletic tops, or casual hoodies. Their adjustable waistband makes them compatible with various body types, ensuring comfort for most users.
Care Instructions
Proper care will maintain the performance and longevity of your shorts:
Washing: Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with like colors.
Detergent: Use a mild detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals.
Bleach: Do not bleach, as this can damage the FlashDry properties and fabric integrity.
Fabric Softener: Do not use fabric softeners, as they can leave residues that clog the fabric's pores and reduce its wicking ability.
Drying: Tumble dry low. Remove promptly to avoid wrinkles.
Ironing: Do not iron.
Dry Cleaning: Do not dry clean.
Following these guidelines will help preserve the quick-drying and moisture-wicking capabilities of your shorts for continued comfort and performance.
