Troubleshooting

Shorts feel restrictive

Ensure you have selected the correct size. Check that the waistband is adjusted properly and not twisted.

Phone pocket feels insecure

Ensure the phone is placed correctly within the pocket and that the pocket flap (if present) is closed. For very vigorous activity, consider a phone armband for added security.

Fabric is not breathable enough

Ensure the garment is clean and free of sweat and debris. For extreme heat, consider wearing them in a cooler environment or during cooler parts of the day.

Chafing occurs during runs

Apply anti-chafing balm to potential friction areas before running. Ensure the shorts fit correctly and are not bunching up.
