Troubleshooting

Shorts feel too tight or restrictive

Ensure you have selected the correct size based on the sizing chart. Consider trying a size up if you prefer a looser fit, or if you are between sizes.

Fabric is not wicking sweat effectively

Check that you are not using fabric softeners during washing, as this can impede moisture-wicking capabilities. Wash with like colors using a mild detergent.

Seams are uncomfortable or causing irritation

Ensure the shorts are worn with the correct side out. If irritation persists, consider trying a different size or style, as personal fit and sensitivity can vary.

Pockets are too small for items

The side pockets are designed for small essentials like keys or cards. For larger items, consider pairing with a running belt or bag.
