FAQs
Are these shorts suitable for all types of running?
These shorts are optimized for regular running sessions due to their streamlined profile, moisture-wicking, and breathability features. They are versatile enough for various running types, from road running to training.
Can I wear these for other sports?
While designed primarily for running, the comfort and moisture-wicking features could make them suitable for other athletic activities that involve similar levels of movement and perspiration, though they may not offer the specific support or features of shorts designed for those sports.
How do I know if I need a different size?
The shorts should fit securely at the waist and allow for free movement without feeling restrictive. If the waistband is uncomfortable, or if movement is limited, consider trying a different size. Consult the size chart for specific measurements.
What is the purpose of the internal moisture barrier in the back pocket?
The internal moisture barrier is designed to protect the contents of the pocket, such as a phone or keys, from sweat that may accumulate inside the shorts.
How should I care for the reflective details?
To preserve the reflective details, avoid harsh detergents and high heat in washing and drying. It is recommended to wash the shorts inside out in cold water and tumble dry on low heat.
What material are the shorts made of?
The main body of the shorts is made from 88% Polyester and 12% Spandex, while the mesh panels are 100% Polyester.
Is the brief liner removable?
No, the ergonomic brief liner is integrated into the shorts and is not removable.
Troubleshooting
Waistband feels too tight or loose.
Adjust the drawcord. If the waistband itself is too tight, consider if a larger size is needed. If it's too loose and cannot be secured with the drawcord, a smaller size may be more appropriate.
Shorts feel restrictive during movement.
Ensure the size is correct and the drawcord is adjusted for a secure but not overly tight fit. The streamlined profile is intended for a close fit; check for any obvious sizing errors.
Moisture-wicking is not effective.
Ensure the shorts are washed according to care instructions, without fabric softeners, which can clog the fabric's pores. Over time, the effectiveness may slightly decrease, but proper care minimizes this.
Phone does not fit securely in the back pocket.
The back pocket is designed for most standard smartphones. If you have a larger model or a case, it may not fit. Consider alternative carrying solutions if the pocket is insufficient.
