Troubleshooting
Shorts feel too tight
Ensure you have selected the correct size. The 'Compression' fit is designed to be extremely snug. Consider trying a size up if the fit is uncomfortable for your intended activity.
Fabric not wicking sweat effectively
Check that you are not using fabric softeners or dryer sheets during washing, as these can clog the fabric's performance fibers. Wash with a mild detergent and avoid excessive amounts of product.
Seams feel uncomfortable during activity
The ergonomic design places seams to minimize abrasion. Ensure the shorts are oriented correctly and that the fit is snug but not overly constricting.
Pocket feels insecure
The drop-in pocket is best suited for small, non-bulky items. Ensure items are fully inserted and do not exceed the pocket's capacity for a secure fit during vigorous movement.
