FAQs
Are these shorts suitable for marathon running?
Yes, the 2-in-1 design is specifically built to prevent chafing, which is ideal for long-distance training.
Can I put my phone in the side pocket?
The side pocket is designed for small essentials like keys or cards; it is generally not large enough to securely hold most modern smartphones.
How do I choose the right size?
These shorts follow standard UK dress sizing. Refer to the size you typically wear for athletic bottoms.
Is the fabric see-through?
No, the 2-in-1 construction features an integrated inner short that provides complete opacity and secure coverage.
Can I tumble dry these shorts?
It is recommended to air dry the shorts to maintain the integrity of the elastic and the fabric's shape.
Is the waistband adjustable with a drawstring?
The shorts utilize a high-waisted ruched design for comfort and fit rather than a traditional drawstring.
Troubleshooting
Waistband feels too loose during intense activity
Ensure the ruched detailing is correctly positioned and flat against your skin, and verify that you have chosen the correct UK size.
Fabric feels slightly heavy when very wet
Polyester is durable but can retain water; ensure you are not using heavy fabric softeners during wash cycles, which can hinder the material's performance.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These shorts do not require any complex setup; simply ensure the size corresponds to your standard UK dress size. To keep the garment in peak condition, follow these care guidelines:
- Wash Temperature: Machine wash at a maximum of 30 degrees Celsius.
- Detergent: Use a mild athletic detergent to preserve the moisture-wicking properties of the polyester.
- Drying: Avoid high-heat tumble drying, as this can degrade the elasticity of the waist and inner lining; air drying is recommended.
- Ironing: Avoid ironing directly on the elasticated waistband to prevent heat damage.
