FAQs
What does '7" inseam' mean?
The 7-inch inseam refers to the length of the short's leg from the crotch seam to the hem. This is a common length for athletic shorts, offering a balance between coverage and freedom of movement.
Can I wear these for casual activities?
Yes, while designed for athletic performance, the comfort and lightweight nature of these shorts make them suitable for casual wear as well.
How do I know if the 'slim fit' is right for me?
The slim fit is designed to be more fitted through the hips, seat, and legs without being restrictive. If you prefer a looser feel or have larger thighs, you might find a relaxed fit more comfortable.
What is the benefit of the internal mesh liner?
The internal mesh liner provides added support and coverage, helping to reduce chafing and enhance comfort during intense physical activity.
How much recycled material is used?
The main body fabric of the shorts contains at least 90% recycled polyester, excluding trims and embellishments.
Are these shorts suitable for swimming?
While the material is quick-drying, these shorts are not specifically designed as swimwear. They are best suited for running, training, and other athletic activities.
What should I do if the reflective logo starts to fade?
Avoid harsh detergents and excessive heat when washing and drying. If the logo is peeling, do not iron it. Gentle care should preserve its reflectivity.
Troubleshooting
Shorts feel too tight
Ensure you have selected the correct size. The 'slim' fit is intentional; consider trying a size up or a different model if a looser fit is preferred. Check the waistband drawcord for proper adjustment.
Material not drying quickly
Verify that fabric softeners were not used, as they can impede moisture-wicking. Ensure the shorts are tumbling dry on low heat and not overloaded in the dryer.
Phone pocket feels insecure
Ensure the phone is fully seated in the internal pocket and that the waistband is securely tightened with the drawcord. For very large phones, consider an alternative secure storage method if needed.
Waistband is uncomfortable
Adjust the internal drawcord for a more comfortable and secure fit. Ensure the waistband is not twisted or folded awkwardly.
