FAQs
What does 'dryCELL' technology do?
dryCELL is PUMA's designation for moisture-wicking fabrics. It is designed to draw sweat away from your skin and towards the fabric's surface, where it can evaporate, helping you stay dry and comfortable.
Are these shorts suitable for other sports?
While primarily designed for football, their lightweight, breathable, and moisture-wicking properties make them suitable for other athletic activities like running, training, or general fitness.
How much recycled material is used?
This garment is made of at least 95% recycled material, sourced from textile waste and other used materials, as part of the RE:FIBRE program.
What is the fit like?
The shorts have a regular fit with a medium rise and an elasticated waistband with an internal drawstring for adjustability.
How do I ensure the best fit?
Refer to the size chart and consider the 'regular' fit description. The adjustable drawstring allows for some customization of the fit around the waist.
What does the 'Portugal badge' signify?
The Portugal badge indicates that these shorts are part of an official apparel line associated with the Portuguese national football team.
Can I iron these shorts?
Yes, you can iron them on a low heat setting if necessary. It is recommended to iron them inside out and avoid direct heat on any printed logos or badges.
Troubleshooting
Drawstring is difficult to adjust
Ensure the drawstring is not tangled and thread it through the waistband channels smoothly. If frayed, consider a gentle trim.
Fabric feels sticky after washing
This may be due to residual detergent or fabric softener. Ensure thorough rinsing during the wash cycle and avoid using fabric softeners, which can interfere with moisture-wicking properties.
Mesh panels losing breathability
Check for lint or debris trapped in the mesh. Clean gently with a soft brush and rinse thoroughly. Ensure proper washing as per care instructions.
Pilling on the fabric surface
Pilling can occur with friction. Ensure the shorts are washed inside out and avoid washing with abrasive materials like denim or items with Velcro.
