FAQs

Are these shorts suitable for girls too?

Yes, while listed under 'Male' in some systems, these core shorts are a unisex design and suitable for any active junior.

What's the best way to wash these shorts?

They are machine washable. We recommend washing them with similar colors on a cool or warm cycle. Avoid using fabric softeners, which can sometimes affect the wicking properties of athletic wear.

Can my child wear these for swimming?

While they will dry quickly due to the polyester/lycra blend, they are primarily designed as athletic shorts for land-based activities rather than swimwear. They do not have chlorine resistance typically found in swimwear.

How do I know what size to buy?

These shorts are sized by age. The current product is for ages 5-6. We recommend choosing based on the child's typical clothing size, keeping in mind the compression fit is designed to be snug.

Are these shorts durable enough for daily sports?

Yes, the blend of Polyester and Lycra is chosen for its durability and elasticity, making them ideal for regular use in sports and active play, provided care instructions are followed.

What does 'Keep away from fire' mean?

This is a standard safety warning for clothing made from synthetic materials. These fabrics can melt or ignite if exposed to a direct flame or intense heat, posing a burn risk. Always keep them away from heat sources like open fires, heaters, or hot surfaces.

Troubleshooting

Shorts feel too tight or too loose.

Ensure you have the correct size for the child's age and build. The compression fit is designed to be snug, but shouldn't restrict movement uncomfortably. Refer to sizing guides if unsure.

Skin irritation or chafing.

While flatlock seams minimize chafing, ensure the shorts are clean before wearing and worn directly against the skin. If irritation persists, check for detergent residue or consider if the fit might be slightly off.

Shorts losing elasticity.

Follow care instructions strictly. Avoid high heat during washing or drying as it can degrade Lycra fibers over time. Ensure no harsh chemicals are used.

Stains not coming out.

Treat stains promptly with a suitable sports fabric stain remover before washing. Avoid using bleach, which can damage the fabric.

Care

To ensure the longevity and performance of your Sondico Core Shorts Juniors:
