FAQs
Can I store my smartphone in the pocket?
The side pocket is designed for small essentials. Depending on the size of your smartphone, it may fit, but heavy devices might cause the shorts to pull down.
Are these shorts suitable for yoga?
Yes, the 2-in-1 design provides excellent coverage for inverted poses and stretching while the high-waisted fit keeps them secure.
How should I wash these shorts?
Machine wash at 30 degrees Celsius. Do not bleach, iron, or tumble dry to maintain fabric performance.
What does the 2-in-1 design mean?
It means there is a compression-style liner built inside the outer layer of the shorts, providing the support of leggings with the look and airflow of shorts.
Does the fabric stretch?
Yes, the inclusion of 11% elastane provides sufficient four-way stretch to accommodate dynamic movements without restricting your range of motion.
Troubleshooting
Waistband feels tight or rolls down
Ensure you are pulling the shorts up to the narrowest part of your waist and verify you have selected the correct size according to your measurements.
Fabric snagging or pilling
Avoid washing with items that have rough textures or zippers; consider using a mesh laundry bag to protect the delicate polyester-elastane blend.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your LA Gear shorts, follow standard care guidelines for synthetic athletic wear. Machine wash the shorts at 30 degrees Celsius to protect the elastane fibers from heat degradation. Avoid tumble drying or using bleach, as these can damage the elasticity of the waistband and the inner lining. The shorts are designed to fit true to size, but the high-waisted elastic offers some flexibility if you prefer a tighter or more relaxed fit.
