FAQs
What makes the 37.5® technology special?
37.5® technology uses active particles embedded in the fabric that help to regulate body temperature by capturing and releasing moisture vapor. This process accelerates drying and enhances cooling comfort, keeping you at your optimal microclimate.
Are these shorts suitable for very hot weather?
Yes, they are specifically designed for warm conditions with features like quick-drying, cooling 37.5® fabric and UPF 40 protection to maximize comfort.
How durable are the reinforced pockets?
The pockets (ruler, leg, and endings) are reinforced to withstand the wear and tear of carrying tools and frequent use, enhancing their longevity compared to non-reinforced pockets.
What is the UPF rating, and what does it mean?
UPF stands for Ultraviolet Protection Factor. A UPF 40 rating means that the fabric will block approximately 97.5% of the sun's harmful ultraviolet rays, providing significant sun protection.
Can I wear these shorts in colder temperatures?
While they offer some protection, these shorts are optimized for warm weather. For cold conditions, layering or wearing insulated trousers would be more appropriate.
What materials are these shorts made from?
The main material is a blend of 45% polyester, 30% 37.5® polyester, and 25% cotton, with a fabric weight of 202 g/m2.
How should I clean these shorts to maintain their performance?
Machine wash warm (40°C) with similar colors. Avoid bleach, fabric softeners, and dry cleaning. Tumble dry on low heat and iron on medium heat. Proper care ensures the 37.5® technology remains effective.
Troubleshooting
Shorts feel warm or less breathable than expected.
Ensure the garment is clean, as dirt and residue can impede fabric performance. Check care label instructions and avoid fabric softeners. Verify the ambient temperature is within the intended use range for the cooling technology.
Stitching on reinforced pockets is coming undone.
Inspect the area for excessive wear or damage. Minor fraying can sometimes be secured with a few stitches. For significant damage, consider professional repair or replacement if within warranty.
Stretch panel feels restrictive.
Verify the correct size has been selected. An undersized garment will restrict movement. Ensure the stretch panel is not caught on anything.
ID card holder is difficult to access.
The ID card holder is designed for security. Practice using it to become familiar with the optimal way to insert and retrieve your card. Ensure the card itself is not too large for the holder.
