Troubleshooting
Odor persists after washing
Ensure you are using a detergent designed for athletic wear and washing in cold water. Avoid fabric softeners as they can trap odors. If possible, air dry in sunlight.
Shorty feels too tight or too loose
The compression fit should be snug but comfortable. If it feels restrictive or slides down, re-evaluate the size. Refer to a size guide if available to confirm the correct fit for the wearer's measurements.
Fabric seems to be losing elasticity
This can often be caused by harsh washing conditions or frequent use of fabric softeners. Always follow the care label instructions and avoid high heat drying, which can degrade elastane.
