Troubleshooting
Shorts feel too tight or too loose
Ensure you have selected the correct size based on your measurements. Refer to the sizing guide if available. The high-rise waistband is designed to be snug; consider if this is the intended fit.
Fabric feels less soft after washing
Review care instructions. Avoid high heat drying, as this can degrade fabric fibers. Using a fabric softener specifically designed for activewear might help.
Dri-FIT technology seems ineffective
Ensure the shorts are not excessively saturated with heavy oils or lotions, which can impede wicking. Wash the shorts according to care instructions to reactivate the wicking properties.
