Full details

The Puma LightSpeed UltraWeave 2 Inch Running Shorts are designed for male runners seeking lightweight performance and unrestricted movement.

These shorts feature dryCELL technology for moisture management, a perforated waistband for breathability, and a secure back pocket for essentials, all constructed from a durable Dobby main material.

FAQs

What is dryCELL technology?

dryCELL is Puma's designation for technical fabrics that draw sweat away from the skin, helping to keep you dry and comfortable during exercise.

How do I determine my size?

Refer to the brand's specific sizing chart, paying attention to waist measurements. The fit is described as 'performance fit,' meaning it's athletic and close to the body.

Can I store my phone in the back pocket?

The back pocket is designed for small essentials. While a smaller smartphone might fit, it could affect comfort and balance during intense runs. A key or energy gel is a more typical use.

Are these shorts suitable for swimming?

These shorts are designed for running and athletic training. They are not optimized for swimming and may not provide the necessary coverage or material properties for water activities.

What does 'UltraWeave' refer to?

UltraWeave indicates a particularly lightweight and durable fabric construction, engineered for high performance and minimal weight.

How should I wash these shorts to maintain their performance?

Machine wash cold with like colors, use mild detergent, do not bleach, and tumble dry low or hang dry. Avoid fabric softeners to preserve moisture-wicking properties.

What is the inseam length?

The inseam length for these shorts is 2 inches.

Troubleshooting

Shorts feel restrictive

Ensure you have selected the correct size and that the waistband is not overly tightened. The high split is designed for range of motion; confirm they are oriented correctly.

Moisture not wicking effectively

Rinse shorts after each use to remove sweat residue. Wash with a mild detergent and avoid fabric softeners, which can impede wicking capabilities.

Waistband feels uncomfortable

The perforated waistband is designed for breathability. Ensure it is positioned correctly on your waist and not folded over. Adjust drawstring if necessary.
