Troubleshooting
Inner short feels too tight
Ensure you have selected the correct size. If the fit is consistently too tight, consider trying a size up or looking for shorts with a less compressive inner layer.
Moisture-wicking performance seems reduced
Ensure you are not using fabric softeners during washing, as they can clog the fabric's pores and reduce moisture-wicking capabilities. Follow the care instructions carefully.
Zipper on pockets is difficult to use
Gently try to work the zipper back and forth. If it remains stuck, apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a tiny drop of lubricant to the zipper teeth, then test the movement again.
Shorts feel heavy or retain water
This may indicate a breakdown in the fabric's water-repellent properties or improper washing. Ensure you are using appropriate detergents and avoiding fabric softeners. Check care label for any specific instructions.
