FAQs
Are these shorts suitable for the gym or just running?
While optimized for running, the lightweight construction and secure pockets make them versatile for various gym activities, particularly high-intensity interval training (HIIT).
Is the zippered pocket large enough for modern smartphones?
The back pocket is designed to hold most standard-sized smartphones securely against the body to reduce movement while running.
Do these shorts have an inner liner?
Yes, these shorts include an internal liner designed to provide support and comfort, eliminating the need for additional underwear.
What does ACTIBREEZE technology actually do?
ACTIBREEZE is a technology designed to improve breathability by keeping the runner cool through strategic ventilation zones.
Are the reflective details effective at night?
Yes, the reflective elements are placed specifically to catch artificial light from vehicles or streetlights to help improve visibility.
Troubleshooting
Waistband feels loose during long runs
Adjust the internal drawstring to ensure a tighter, customized fit around your waist.
Fabric holds moisture after very intense workouts
Ensure the garment is not being washed with fabric softener, which can clog the technical fibers and inhibit the wicking process.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Asics Road 5IN Shorts, follow these care guidelines:
- Washing: Machine wash on a cold, gentle cycle with similar colors. Avoid heavy detergents.
- Drying: Air dry whenever possible to protect the technical fibers and reflective elements. If using a machine, tumble dry on low heat.
- Avoid: Do not use fabric softeners or bleach, as these can break down the moisture-wicking properties of the polyester fabric.
- Fit: These shorts are designed with an athletic, snug-but-flexible fit. Use the internal drawcord for a personalized, secure hold at the waist.
