FAQs

What is the primary benefit of the "COOL DRY" polyester fabric?

The "COOL DRY" polyester is engineered to wick moisture away from the skin and allow for rapid evaporation, keeping you cool and comfortable during physical activity.

How do I determine the correct size?

Refer to the size guide provided: XXS - 28", XS - 30", S - 32", M - 34", L - 36", XL - 38", XXL - 40". It is recommended to measure your waist and compare.

Are these shorts suitable for swimming?

While the fabric is quick-drying, these shorts are designed for running and athletic activities, not specifically for swimming. They are water repellent but not waterproof.

How effective is the UV protection?

The shorts offer UV protection, which helps shield your skin from harmful ultraviolet rays during outdoor exercise. The specific UPF rating is not provided.

Can the drawcord be removed?

The drawcord is integrated for fit adjustment and is not designed to be removed. It works in conjunction with the elastic waistband.

What does 'anti-bacterial and deodorised treatment' mean?

This treatment helps to inhibit the growth of odor-causing bacteria on the fabric, helping to keep the shorts smelling fresher for longer between washes.

Will the water repellent feature last after multiple washes?

The water repellent finish may diminish over time with repeated washing. To maintain its effectiveness, avoid fabric softeners and consider re-waterproofing treatments if necessary.

Troubleshooting

Shorts feel restrictive

Ensure the drawcord is loosened appropriately and that you are selecting the correct waist size based on the provided chart. The active sport fit is designed for performance, so some initial adjustment may be needed.

Fabric not drying quickly

Ensure the garment is not overloaded in the washing machine and that fabric softeners have not been used, as these can affect the performance of the COOL DRY Polyester.

Reflective logo is fading

Reduce the frequency of tumble drying on high heat and consider washing the shorts inside out to protect the printed logo.

Waistband feels too loose or too tight

Utilize the internal drawcord to achieve a custom fit. If the waistband itself is fundamentally too large or small, consider exchanging for a different size.
