FAQs
Are these shorts true to size?
Yes, they follow standard UK dress sizing. If you are between sizes, it is recommended to check the measurements provided for your specific size.
Can I use the side pocket for a phone?
The side pocket is designed for small essentials like keys, a credit card, or small gels; it is likely too small for most modern smartphones.
What material are these shorts made of?
These shorts are constructed from durable, high-quality polyester, chosen for its resilience and ability to hold its shape during exercise.
Does the inner short ride up?
The inner short is designed to stay in place, but ensuring you have the correct size for your frame is key to preventing any movement.
Can these be tumble dried?
It is highly recommended to air dry these shorts to maintain the elasticity of the waistband and the longevity of the synthetic fabric.
Troubleshooting
Waistband feels too tight during deep stretches
Ensure the ruched detail is evenly distributed and not bunched up, as excessive fabric gathering can create pressure points.
Fabric holds onto perspiration
Ensure you are washing with high-quality detergent and avoiding fabric softeners, which leave a film that traps odors and prevents evaporation.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your LA Gear shorts maintain their performance, follow these care guidelines. Always machine wash on a cold, gentle cycle to preserve the integrity of the elastic and the polyester fibers. Avoid using harsh fabric softeners, as they can degrade the moisture-wicking capabilities of synthetic materials. Hang dry your shorts away from direct heat sources to prevent shrinkage or damage to the fabric's elasticity. When sizing, refer to standard UK dress sizes to ensure a proper fit; the high-waisted band should sit comfortably above the hips without digging into the skin.
