Troubleshooting

Waistband feels too tight or digs into skin

Ensure you have selected the correct size based on your UK dress size (Size 16 for XL). If the band is tight, ensure it is sitting correctly on the hips without folding.

Fabric shows signs of pilling

Avoid washing with rough fabrics like denim or garments with Velcro or zippers, which can abrade the specialized performance material.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Asics Core Sprinter Running Shorts, always follow the care label instructions. It is recommended to machine wash in cold water with similar colors. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can break down the performance fibers. Hang drying is preferred over tumble drying to preserve the elasticity of the waistband and the shape of the fabric. These shorts are designed to be worn as base-layer performance gear, making them compatible with various running tops and outer layers.
