Full details

FAQs
What is the inseam length of these shorts?

How do I best maintain the fabric's softness?
To maintain softness, wash in cold water with like colors and tumble dry on low heat. Avoid using bleach or harsh detergents.
Can I wear these in cold weather?

How do I adjust the fit of the waistband?

Troubleshooting
Waistband feels too loose or too tight
Adjust the external drawcord to achieve the desired tightness. Ensure the waistband is positioned correctly on your waist.
Shorts feel damp after a workout
While designed to wick sweat, extreme exertion may lead to some moisture retention. Ensure the shorts are fully dry before storing. Consider a higher synthetic content garment for very intense activities.
Fabric pilling or showing wear
Reduce the frequency of tumble drying on high heat and avoid washing with abrasive items like denim. Consider air drying to preserve fabric integrity.
Pockets feel insecure for small items
The open hand pockets and back pocket are designed for light items. For secure storage of keys or phones during vigorous activity, consider using a running belt or a garment with zippered pockets.
