FAQs
What does 'seamless technology' mean?
Seamless technology refers to a garment construction method that minimizes or eliminates traditional seams. This results in a smoother, more comfortable fit, reducing chafing and irritation during physical activity.
What is PRO-DRY fabric?
PRO-DRY is a specialized sweat-wicking fabric designed to draw moisture away from your skin, allowing it to evaporate quickly. This helps to keep you dry, cool, and comfortable during workouts.
Are these shorts suitable for intense workouts?
Yes, with their PRO-DRY sweat-wicking fabric, seamless comfort, and supportive fit, these shorts are designed to perform well during intense workouts, including gym sessions, cycling, and high-impact activities.
How do I choose the correct size?
The product is available in various sizes (e.g., Size 18 for this variant). For the best fit, it's recommended to consult the official USA Pro sizing chart, usually found on their website, and compare your measurements to ensure an optimal fit.
Can I wear these shorts for activities other than cycling?
Absolutely! While named 'Cycling Shorts', their versatile design, comfort, and support make them ideal for a wide range of activities including yoga, Pilates, gym workouts, running, and general fitness or active wear.
What are the washing instructions?
For best care, machine wash cold with similar colors using a mild detergent. Tumble dry on low heat or hang dry to maintain fabric integrity. Avoid using bleach or ironing the shorts to prevent damage to the synthetic fibers. Always check the garment's internal care label for specific instructions.
Troubleshooting
Shorts feel too tight or restrictive.
Ensure you have selected the correct size (e.g., Size 18 in this variant). While designed for optimal support, an incorrect size can lead to discomfort. Refer to the USA Pro sizing chart if available, or consider trying an alternative size.
Fabric not effectively wicking sweat.
First, ensure the shorts are clean and free from fabric softener residue, which can impede wicking properties. If the issue persists, check if the garment has been exposed to extreme heat during washing or drying, which can damage the PRO-DRY fibers.
Shorts rolling down at the waist or up at the leg.
The high-waisted and longline design is intended to stay in place. Ensure the shorts are pulled up correctly. If rolling continues, it might indicate a sizing issue; a size too small could cause rolling up, while a size too large could cause rolling down due to lack of snugness.
Minor thread pulls or snags after washing.
Synthetic activewear can be prone to snags from rough surfaces or zippers in the wash. Wash inside out, preferably in a mesh laundry bag, to protect the seamless knit from damage during agitation.

Care
To maintain the quality and performance of your shorts, follow these general care guidelines for synthetic activewear:
- Washing: Machine wash cold with similar colors. It is recommended to wash inside out.
- Detergent: Use a mild detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals or bleach.
- Drying: Tumble dry low or, preferably, hang dry to preserve fabric elasticity and integrity.
- Ironing: Do not iron. High heat can damage the synthetic fibers.

- Material: The 'Marl' variant consists of 50% Nylon, 36% Polyester, 14% Elastane. The 'Plain' variant is 88% Nylon, 12% Elastane. These blends benefit from gentle care to maintain their sweat-wicking and sculpting properties.
