FAQs

What type of activities are these shorts best suited for?

The Sweaty Betty Explorer Track Piped Shorts are versatile and suitable for running, gym workouts, yoga, and general activewear. They also transition well into casual everyday wear.

How do I determine my size?

Refer to the brand's sizing chart for Sweaty Betty apparel. These shorts are designed for a regular fit, and you can adjust the waistband with the drawcord for a more personalized fit.

Can I wear these shorts in wet conditions?

Yes, the fabric is designed to be quick-drying, making them suitable for activities where you might encounter moisture, such as during intense workouts or light rain.

Are the pockets deep enough for a phone?

The shorts feature two side slip pockets, which are typically designed for smaller essentials like keys or cards. They may not securely accommodate larger smartphones.

What is the difference between this 'Crimson Red' and other red variants?

The primary difference would be the specific shade of red. 'Crimson Red' typically refers to a deep, rich red. Always check product images for the most accurate color representation.

How should I wash these shorts to maintain their shape and color?

Machine wash cold with like colors on a gentle cycle. Avoid bleach and tumble dry on low heat. For best results, air dry. Iron on a low setting on the reverse side if needed.

Troubleshooting

Drawcord comes undone or is difficult to adjust

Ensure the drawcord is tied securely but not overly tight. If it has become detached from the waistband, carefully re-thread it through the eyelets.

Fabric feels clingy after washing

Avoid using fabric softener, as it can reduce the breathability and moisture-wicking properties of the fabric. Ensure the shorts are fully rinsed and dried according to care instructions.

Piping detail appears creased or damaged

Always iron on the reverse side of the fabric on a low heat setting. Avoid direct ironing on the piping to prevent melting or distortion.
