FAQs
Are these shorts suitable for swimming?
These shorts are designed for training, running, and gym use, not specifically for swimming. The materials are performance-focused and optimized for dry-land exercise.
Can I remove the inner liner?
The liner is integrated into the construction of the shorts. It is not recommended to remove it as it provides structural support and security.
How should I store keys during a run?
Use the dedicated internal zip pocket to keep your keys or small cards secure and prevented from bouncing.
Is the fabric quick-drying?
Yes, the polyester blend is designed to wick moisture away from the skin and dry quickly after a workout.
What does the 2-in-1 design mean?
It means the shorts feature an outer layer for coverage and an inner compression-style liner for support, combined into a single garment.
Troubleshooting
Waistband feels loose during activity
Ensure the internal drawcord is tied securely before starting your workout; the elastic is designed for comfort, but the drawcord provides the necessary tension.
Cooling effect not felt during exercise
The ChillTek technology is sweat-activated. It will become more noticeable as your body temperature rises and moisture accumulates on the fabric.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your shorts, follow these guidelines:
- Fitment: Use the internal drawcord to secure the waistband; the shorts are designed to sit at the hips for optimal range of motion.
- Washing: Machine wash on a cold, gentle cycle to preserve the performance properties of the fabric. Avoid using heavy detergents or fabric softeners, as these can clog the sweat-activated cooling fibers.
- Drying: Hang dry away from direct heat sources. Tumble drying on high heat may degrade the stretch properties of the elastane and the effectiveness of the ChillTek technology.
- Storage: Store flat or hung; avoid leaving the shorts in damp gym bags for extended periods to prevent odor build-up.
