FAQs

What material are the KooGa Junior Rugby Training Shorts made from?

These shorts are made from 100% cotton, providing a soft, breathable, and comfortable feel for active wear.

Are these shorts suitable for both training and matches?

Yes, they are designed to be ideal for both rugby training sessions and competitive matches, offering durability and comfort for both scenarios.

How do I choose the correct size for my child?

This specific product is sized for children aged 9-10. It's recommended to select the size based on the child's age group, and refer to a detailed size chart if available for precise measurements.

Can these shorts be used for sports other than rugby?

While specifically designed for rugby, their comfortable 100% cotton material and flexible fit make them suitable for other general athletic activities or casual wear for active children.

How should I wash these shorts to maintain their quality?

For best results and to prevent shrinking or damage, it is crucial to follow the specific care instructions located on the garment's internal label. Generally, for 100% cotton, washing in cold water on a gentle cycle and air-drying or tumble-drying on a low heat setting is recommended.

Are these shorts durable enough for rough play?

Yes, they feature reinforced stitching, which adds significant durability to withstand the demands of tough play and frequent use common in junior rugby.

What color options are available for these shorts?

This specific product is black. Other variants in the KooGa Junior Rugby Training Shorts range may include blue, depending on availability.

Troubleshooting

Shorts feel uncomfortable or restrictive during play.

Ensure the correct size (age 9-10 for this variant) has been purchased. While the elasticated waistband offers flexibility, an ill-fitting size can cause discomfort. Double-check the child's measurements against a size chart if available.

Stitching appears loose or damaged prematurely after use.

While designed for durability with reinforced stitching, inspect for snags or excessive wear from abrasive surfaces or rough play. Ensure proper care, as outlined in the `Care Instructions` section, to prolong garment life and prevent premature wear.

Fabric seems to have shrunk or lost shape after washing.

Cotton is prone to shrinking if washed or dried improperly. Always refer to the specific care label instructions located inside the garment (Info needed: [check internal garment label for specific washing instructions]). Generally, wash in cold water on a gentle cycle and air dry or tumble dry on a low heat setting to prevent shrinkage.

Care

Proper care will extend the life and maintain the quality of your KooGa Junior Rugby Training Shorts. As they are 100% cotton, specific attention should be paid to washing and drying to prevent shrinking or damage.

General Care Guidelines (Always check garment label for specific instructions):

  1. Washing: Machine wash cold with similar colors on a gentle cycle. Avoid hot water, which can cause cotton to shrink.
  2. Detergent: Use a mild detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals or bleach.
  3. Drying: Air dry whenever possible by laying flat or hanging. If using a dryer, tumble dry on a low heat setting to minimize shrinkage. Remove promptly to avoid wrinkles.
  4. Ironing: If necessary, iron on a low-heat setting.
  5. Stains: Treat stains promptly according to fabric care best practices.
