Dri-FIT technology not wicking sweat effectively
Check the care instructions. Fabric softeners or improper washing can impede the moisture-wicking capabilities. Wash with mild detergent and avoid fabric softeners. Ensure the garment is not overly worn or damaged.
Drawcord is difficult to adjust or keep tied
Ensure the drawcord ends are not frayed. If they are, you can try securing them with tape or a knot. Ensure the waistband is not overly stretched.
