Troubleshooting

Shorts feel too tight

Ensure you have selected the correct size by consulting the size chart. The compression fit is intended to be snug.

Material is not drying quickly

Check that the care instructions are followed precisely. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can impede moisture-wicking properties. Ensure the dryer setting is low.
