FAQs
What activities are these shorts best suited for?
These shorts are versatile and ideal for cycling, yoga, gym workouts, running, and general fitness activities, thanks to their supportive fit and sweat-wicking properties.
Are these shorts truly seamless, and what does that mean for comfort?
Yes, they feature advanced seamless technology. This means fewer seams, which significantly reduces chafing and irritation, providing a smoother, more comfortable feel against your skin during movement.
How do I choose the correct size for optimal fit and support?
Refer to the USA Pro size guide. These shorts are designed for a supportive, compressive fit. If you prefer a less snug feel or are between sizes, consider sizing up. The high-waisted design aims to stay put during activity.
Can I wear these shorts for swimming or water sports?
While the PRO-DRY fabric is designed to wick sweat and dry quickly, these shorts are not specifically designed for prolonged immersion in water or swimming. Exposure to chlorine or saltwater may impact fabric longevity and performance.
What is the material composition of these shorts?
The plain variant is composed of 88% Nylon and 12% Elastane, providing a blend that offers durability, stretch, and moisture-wicking capabilities. (Note: Marl versions may have a slightly different blend of Nylon, Polyester, and Elastane).
How should I wash these shorts to maintain their quality?
For best results, machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with mild detergent. Do not use fabric softener, as it can impair the sweat-wicking function. Always air dry by laying flat or hanging; avoid tumble drying to preserve fabric elasticity and shape.
Troubleshooting
Shorts feel too tight or uncomfortable.
Ensure you have selected the correct size according to the USA Pro size guide. The shorts are designed to offer optimal support and a compressive fit, which may feel snug. If discomfort persists, consider trying the next size up. Remember, some initial snugness is normal for performance activewear.
Sweat is not wicking effectively, or fabric feels damp.
Verify the shorts are worn correctly and fit snugly against your skin, allowing the PRO-DRY fabric to work efficiently. Avoid using fabric softeners during washing, as they can coat the fibers and hinder moisture-wicking capabilities. Ensure they are fully dry before wearing.
Fabric shows signs of pilling or damage after washing.
Review your washing routine. Always machine wash cold on a gentle cycle, with similar colors. Avoid washing with items that have zippers or velcro that could snag the fabric. Air dry only, as high heat from tumble drying can damage the synthetic fibers and lead to pilling.
Shorts are slipping down during activity.
Confirm you have the correct size; shorts that are too large may not stay up. The high-waisted design should provide a secure fit. If the issue persists, ensure the waistband is positioned correctly on your natural waist before beginning your activity.

Care Instructions
Proper care will extend the life and performance of your USA Pro Longline Cycling Shorts. Follow these guidelines:
- Machine Wash Cold: Use a gentle cycle with similar colors.
- Mild Detergent: Avoid harsh chemicals or bleach.
- Do Not Use Fabric Softener: Fabric softeners can clog the fibers of the PRO-DRY sweat-wicking fabric, reducing its effectiveness.
- Air Dry: Lay flat or hang to dry. Avoid direct sunlight or high heat, as this can damage the elastic fibers.

- Avoid Dry Cleaning: Not suitable for dry cleaning.
