FAQs

Are these shorts suitable for swimming?

While the shorts are made of polyester, they are designed for running and gym use. They may not be treated for chlorine resistance.

Do these shorts have a zipper for the pockets?

No, the pockets are open-style, designed for quick access rather than secure storage for valuables.

Is the internal brief removable?

No, the internal brief is stitched into the garment to provide structural support and is not intended to be removed.

Are they true to size?

Yes, they generally follow standard sizing; however, the elastic waistband and drawstring allow for flexibility if you are between sizes.

Can I wear these for long-distance running?

Absolutely, the moisture-wicking material and supportive liner make them well-suited for long-distance runs.

Troubleshooting

Drawstring lost inside the waistband

Use a safety pin to attach to one end of the drawstring and gently guide it back through the channel from the outside.

Fabric snagging on rough surfaces

Avoid contact with abrasive surfaces like concrete or rough gym benches to maintain the smooth finish of the polyester.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your New Balance Accelerate Shorts, follow these care instructions:

  1. Washing: Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with like colors to prevent color bleeding.
  2. Drying: Air drying is highly recommended to preserve the integrity of the fabric and the reflective branding. If you must use a machine, select the lowest heat setting.
  3. Avoid Bleach: Do not use bleach or fabric softeners, as these can degrade the moisture-wicking properties of the polyester.
  4. Fitment: The elastic waistband is designed to sit comfortably at the hips. Use the internal drawstring to secure the fit if the waistband feels loose during movement.
