Troubleshooting

Fabric feels heavy or saturated during workouts

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Because these are ready-to-wear fitness shorts, no setup is required. To maintain the integrity of the Dri-FIT technology and the fabric's shape, it is recommended to wash the shorts in cold water with similar colors. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can coat the fibers and reduce the moisture-wicking efficacy of the garment. Air drying or tumble drying on a low-heat setting is advised to prevent heat damage to the synthetic fibers. Always check the care label inside the garment for specific temperature guidelines and to ensure longevity.
