Troubleshooting
Inner shorts feel too tight
Ensure you have selected the correct size. If the size is correct, the fit might not be suitable for your body type. Consider trying a different size or style.
Shorts ride up during activity
Check that the elasticated waistband is snug but not overly tight. Ensure the inner shorts are properly positioned. Adjusting the fit may help.
Discomfort or chafing
Verify that the flatlock stitching is correctly positioned against the skin. Ensure the inner shorts are not bunching. For intense activities, consider a moisture-wicking base layer if irritation persists.
Fabric feels less breathable over time
Ensure the shorts are washed according to care instructions to remove sweat and body oils that can impede fabric performance. Avoid fabric softeners, which can clog fibers.
