FAQs

What size are these shorts?

These specific shorts are a UK Men's Waist Size 28.

Are these shorts suitable for intense workouts?

They are suitable for light workouts and gym wear due to their comfortable and breathable cotton fabric and regular fit. However, for very intense or specialized athletic activities, performance-specific shorts with advanced moisture-wicking properties might be more appropriate.

What does 'BCI Cotton' mean?

BCI stands for 'Better Cotton Initiative'. It means the cotton was sourced through a system that supports more sustainable cotton farming practices, benefiting the environment and farming communities.

Can I put these shorts in the dryer?

Yes, you can tumble dry them on a low heat setting. For best results and to minimize shrinkage, air drying is recommended. Always check the garment's care label.

Do these shorts have pockets?

Yes, they feature convenient side pockets for carrying small essentials.

What is the material composition?

These shorts are crafted from 100% BCI cotton with a 320 gsm loop fabric, providing a soft, durable, and breathable feel.

How should I wash these shorts to prevent color fading?

To prevent color fading, machine wash them in cold water with similar colors and use a mild detergent. Avoid using bleach, and air dry or tumble dry on low heat.

Troubleshooting

Shorts feel tighter or have shrunk after washing.

Cotton can shrink if exposed to high heat. Always wash in cold water and tumble dry on a low heat setting, or air dry to prevent this. Check the garment's care label for specific temperature recommendations.

Drawstring has pulled out or become uneven.

Use a safety pin attached to one end of the drawstring. Thread the safety pin through the waistband tunnel, pushing it along until the drawstring comes out the other side. This makes re-threading much easier.

Fabric feels rough or stiff after drying.

This can happen if too much detergent is used, or if the shorts are over-dried. Try using less detergent and adding a fabric softener during the wash cycle. Air drying or tumble drying on a very low heat can also help maintain softness.

Pilling (small fabric balls) appears on the surface.

Pilling can occur with friction. Use a fabric shaver or a lint brush designed for pilling removal to carefully remove them. Washing inside out can also help reduce friction.

Care Instructions

Proper care will ensure the longevity and comfort of your Lyle & Scott Grey Sweat Shorts. Always refer to the specific care label inside the garment for the most accurate instructions, but generally, for 100% cotton garments:

  • Washing: Machine wash cold (30°C or 86°F) with similar colors to prevent color bleeding and minimize shrinkage. Use a gentle cycle.
  • Detergent: Use a mild detergent.
  • Bleaching: Do not use bleach, as it can damage the cotton fibers and alter the color.
  • Drying: Tumble dry on low heat or, ideally, air dry flat to help maintain the shape and prevent excessive shrinkage. Over-drying can cause stiffness and reduce fabric softness.
  • Ironing: If necessary, iron on a low heat setting. Avoid ironing directly on any printed logos.
  • Dry Cleaning: Do not dry clean.

Following these guidelines will help maintain the soft feel, fit, and color of your shorts for a long time. Regular washing at appropriate temperatures also ensures hygiene, especially after workouts.
