FAQs

What is the primary material of these shorts?

The SPRINTER SHORTS are primarily made from 100% recycled Polyamide (PA6), utilizing a durable plain weave fabric.

Are these shorts suitable for intense athletic training?

These shorts are suitable for light to moderate athletic activities and general fitness. For high-intensity training requiring extreme flexibility or specific moisture-wicking properties, other specialized shorts might be more appropriate.

How do I determine the correct size?

The shorts feature a regular fit. Refer to the size chart provided by adidas Originals, paying attention to waist and hip measurements for the most accurate selection.

Can I wear these shorts in water?

While the fabric can dry relatively quickly, these shorts are not designed as swimwear. They can be used as cover-ups or for light water activities, but prolonged submersion is not recommended.

What does 'Regular Fit' mean for these shorts?

Regular fit indicates a standard, comfortable cut that is neither too tight nor too loose, offering ease of movement for everyday wear and light activities.

Are these shorts machine washable?

Yes, these shorts are machine washable. It is recommended to wash them in cold water with like colors and tumble dry on low heat or hang dry.

What is the benefit of the drawcord closure?

The drawcord closure allows you to easily adjust the waistband for a secure, customized, and comfortable fit, ensuring the shorts stay in place during movement.

Troubleshooting

Drawcord is difficult to adjust.

Ensure the drawcord ends are not frayed. If they are, you can carefully trim them or tie a small knot. Gently work the drawcord back and forth to loosen it.

Shorts feel stiff after washing.

Avoid using fabric softener, which can degrade synthetic fibers over time. Tumble dry on low heat or hang dry. Ensure the shorts are not over-dried.

Fit is too loose despite drawcord.

Ensure the drawcord is tied securely. If the waistband is significantly too large, consider if a smaller size would be more appropriate for future purchases.

Color fading on the black shorts.

Wash inside out with cold water and similar colors. Avoid using harsh detergents or bleach. Air drying in shade can also help preserve color.
