FAQs
What activities are these shorts best suited for?
These shorts are highly versatile and ideal for a range of activities including gym workouts, yoga, Pilates, cycling, running, and general activewear. The seamless design and sweat-wicking fabric make them comfortable for various types of exercise.
How do I ensure the best fit for these shorts?
For an optimal fit, refer to the USA Pro size guide. The seamless technology provides comfort and support, but selecting your correct size is key to experiencing the full benefits. They should feel snug and supportive without being overly restrictive.
What does 'PRO-DRY Sweat-wicking Fabric' mean?
PRO-DRY is a specialized fabric technology designed to draw moisture (sweat) away from your skin to the outer surface of the fabric. This process helps it evaporate quickly, keeping you dry, comfortable, and focused during your workout.
Are these shorts transparent or 'squat-proof'?
The USA Pro Longline Cycling Shorts feature a body sculpting knitted pattern and seamless technology designed for coverage and support. While specific transparency can vary with extreme stretching or lighting, the construction is intended to provide confidence during movements like squats. For best results, ensure you're wearing the correct size to prevent overstretching the fabric.
What is the material composition of the shorts?
The plain black variant is composed of 88% Nylon and 12% Elastane. If you have a 'marl' (heathered) version, the composition is 50% Nylon, 36% Polyester, and 14% Elastane.
Do these shorts have any pockets?
No, these USA Pro Longline Cycling Shorts do not feature any pockets for storage.
Can I wear these shorts for swimming?
While the fabric is moisture-wicking, these shorts are not specifically designed as swimwear. Prolonged exposure to chlorine or salt water may affect the fabric's integrity and performance over time. It's best to use them for dryland activities.
Troubleshooting
Shorts feel too tight or restrictive
Ensure you have selected the correct size. While designed to be supportive, they should not feel overly restrictive. If discomfort persists, consider trying the next size up.
Sweat is not wicking away effectively
Check if the shorts are saturated. For optimal wicking, ensure a snug fit that allows the fabric to make contact with your skin. Avoid using fabric softeners during washing, as they can coat fibers and reduce moisture-wicking capability.
Fabric appears to be stretching out or losing shape
Review care instructions to ensure proper washing and drying. High heat can damage elastane, leading to loss of shape. Always machine wash cold and tumble dry low or hang dry.
Shorts are riding up during activity
The longline design is intended to minimize riding up. Ensure your shorts are properly pulled up and seated at your natural waistline. If the problem persists, your size might be too small, or the activity might require a different garment type.
