FAQs
How do I determine the right size?
Refer to the size chart provided by Dare 2b. Measure your waist and hip circumference and compare it to the measurements listed for the Recurrent Under Short.
Can I wear these without outer cycling shorts?
While possible, these are designed as undershorts to be worn with outer layers. For adequate protection and coverage during cycling, wearing them with baggies, sports shorts, or leggings is recommended.
How often should I wash these shorts?
It is recommended to wash them after each use to maintain hygiene, especially given the anti-bacterial treatment. Follow the care instructions for best results.
What does 'Coolmax technology' mean for the pad?
Coolmax is a fabric technology that enhances breathability and moisture management. It helps to wick sweat away from the body and keep the area dry and cool.
Is the pad removable?
No, the 2D moulded stretch multi-density foam insert is integrated into the shorts and is not designed to be removable.
How many plastic bottles are recycled to make one pair?
Each pair of these shorts is made using materials that have recycled 3 plastic bottles.
What is the return policy if they don't fit?
Please refer to the retailer's specific return policy for exchanges or returns due to sizing issues. Typically, unworn items with tags may be eligible.
Troubleshooting
Chafing or discomfort
Ensure the shorts are the correct size and the flat-locked seams are lying flat against the skin. Adjust the position of the pad if necessary. Ensure outer shorts are not too tight.
Reduced wicking performance
Check that the garment is not overly saturated with heavy detergents, which can impede fabric performance. Follow care instructions carefully and avoid fabric softeners.
Pad feels too thin or too thick
The pad is designed for general comfort; personal preference for padding varies greatly. For very long rides, consider a thicker pad in outer shorts. For shorter rides, the current padding should suffice.
