Product Information

Full details

The Dare 2b Off Trail Short is designed for active women participating in high-energy activities like running, hiking, or training. Its key benefit is providing flexibility, comfort, and durability for intense movement, with a water-repellent finish for changing conditions. A potential caveat is that it's a specialized garment, best suited for athletic pursuits rather than casual wear. Key features include 100% polyester construction, an elasticated waistband for a secure fit, and a discreet, invisible zipped pocket for essentials.

FAQs

What activities are these shorts best suited for?

These shorts are ideal for high-energy activities such as running, hiking, and general training due to their lightweight, flexible, and water-repellent design.

Can I store my phone in the zipped pocket?

The pocket is described as discreet and intended for essentials like keys. While a smaller smartphone might fit, it may be snug and could affect the comfort or silhouette during vigorous activity.

How do I wash and care for the shorts?

Machine wash at 30°C with similar colours. Do not bleach. Tumble dry on low or line dry. Do not iron or dry clean. Avoid fabric softeners to maintain water-repellency.

Are these shorts suitable for heavy rain?

The shorts have a water-repellent finish, which is effective against light moisture or splashes. They are not designed for heavy or prolonged rain exposure.

What material are the shorts made of?

The Dare 2b Off Trail Shorts are made from 100% polyester fabric.

What does PFAS Compliant mean?

PFAS Compliant means that the product's manufacturing process adheres to regulations concerning per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances, which are often used in water-repellent treatments but can have environmental concerns.

Troubleshooting

Shorts feel restrictive during movement

Ensure the elasticated waistband is not overly stretched and that the size is appropriate for your body. The 100% polyester fabric is designed for flexibility, so a proper fit is key.

Water repellency seems reduced

The water-repellent finish can degrade over time with washing. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can impair this function. Consider using a specialized re-waterproofing spray for outdoor apparel if performance diminishes significantly.

Zipper on the pocket is difficult to use

Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper. Gently try to move the zipper back and forth. If it remains stiff, a small amount of silicone-based lubricant or graphite from a pencil tip can help.
