FAQs

What age group are these shorts designed for?

These shorts are designed for kids, specifically noted as a youth size (YMD 2.5" inseam) suitable for ages approximately 7-8 years, though other sizes may be available.

Are these shorts suitable for swimming?

While the fabric is lightweight and quick-drying, these shorts are not specifically designed as swimwear. They are intended for athletic activities and casual wear.

How do I know if I'm choosing the right size?

Can these shorts be worn for lounging?

Yes, the soft, lightweight, and breathable fabric makes them very comfortable for lounging at home.

What is the main benefit of the shaped hem?

The shaped hem is designed to provide a more flattering fit and allow for a greater range of motion during physical activities.

How much recycled material is used?

The main body fabric contains at least 90% recycled polyester, excluding trims and embellishments.

What should I do if the elastic waistband feels uncomfortable?

The shorts feature a mid-rise exposed elastic waistband. If it feels uncomfortable, consider checking the sizing or exploring other Under Armour styles with different waistband designs.

Troubleshooting

Shorts feel too tight or too loose

Ensure you have selected the correct size based on the provided size chart. The fit can vary slightly due to the mid-rise and elastic waistband.

Fabric is not wicking sweat effectively

Verify that fabric softener was not used during washing, as it can impede moisture-wicking capabilities. Ensure the garment is washed according to care instructions.

Avoid washing with abrasive materials like denim. Follow the recommended washing and drying procedures to minimize wear and tear.
