FAQs
Are these shorts suitable for swimming?
While made of polyester, these are designed for general athletic training and not specifically as swimwear.
Do these shorts have internal pockets?
The design focuses on a streamlined, lightweight fit for training and does not typically include pockets.
Can I put these in the dryer?
Yes, but it is recommended to use the low-heat setting to avoid damaging the technical fabrics and elastic.
Is the fit true to size?
Yes, they feature a regular fit that is designed to be standard for children's athletic sizing.
How do I ensure the moisture-wicking works best?
Avoid using fabric softeners during the wash cycle, as they leave a film on the fabric that blocks its ability to wick sweat.
Troubleshooting
Waistband feels too loose during activity
Ensure the shorts are pulled up correctly to the natural waist; if the size is correct, check that the elastic has not been over-stretched by improper drying.
Fabric retains odors after heavy use
Use a specialized sports laundry detergent designed to penetrate synthetic fibers and neutralize bacteria buildup.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep the moisture-wicking properties effective, wash the shorts in cold water with similar colors and avoid using heavy fabric softeners, as these can coat the fibers and reduce wicking performance. Tumble dry on a low setting or hang-dry to preserve the elastic integrity of the waistband. These shorts pair effectively with standard compression base layers if additional support is needed during cold-weather training. Always check the internal care label for specific temperature recommendations to prevent shrinkage or heat damage to the synthetic fabric.
