FAQs

Are these shorts suitable for swimming?

While the material is quick-drying, they are designed specifically for gym and running performance, not as dedicated swimwear.

Can I use the internal pocket for any size smartphone?

The pocket is designed for standard-sized phones; very large or heavy devices may feel bulky or uncomfortable.

Is the material stretchy?

Yes, the outer shorts are made from a lightweight, stretchy woven fabric to allow for maximum freedom of movement.

How should I wash these shorts?

Machine wash cold with like colors, do not bleach, and tumble dry low or hang dry.

What is the primary material used?

The shorts are made from 100% polyester, with at least 90% being recycled material in the main body.

Do these shorts have a regular fit?

Yes, these are designed with a regular fit that is neither too tight nor too baggy, with added compression support underneath.

Troubleshooting

Drawcord has retracted into the waistband

Use a safety pin attached to the end of the cord to carefully thread it back through the eyelet.

Fabric appears to be losing moisture-wicking efficiency

Wash the garment without fabric softener, as chemical build-up can block the moisture-wicking fibers.

Compression liner feels too tight after washing

Avoid high heat in the dryer, as excessive heat can cause the spandex components in the knit to shrink.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent moisture management and quick-drying properties
  • Internal compression liner provides superior support and prevents chafing
  • Integrated internal pocket prevents phone bouncing during movement
  • Highly breathable design keeps you cool during intense sessions

Cons

  • Compression liner may not suit users who prefer a non-restrictive fit
  • Limited to a 7-inch inseam which may feel long for some runners
  • Hand pockets may not securely hold larger bulky items without the internal phone sleeve

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your UA Launch shorts, use the internal drawcord to achieve a firm but comfortable tension around the waist before starting your activity. The garment is machine washable. For best results, wash in cold water with similar colors and avoid using fabric softeners, as these can break down the moisture-wicking properties of the polyester fibers. Hang drying is recommended to maintain the elasticity of the knit liner, but if you must use a dryer, choose a low-heat setting.
