FAQs

Are these shorts suitable for swimming?

These shorts are designed specifically for running and land-based training. While the material is quick-drying, they are not intended for use in pool or ocean environments.

Does the inner brief have a pocket?

The inner brief does not have its own pocket; however, the outer shell features a secure zippered back pocket designed to store small items like a phone.

What is the benefit of the 7-inch inseam?

The 7-inch inseam is considered a standard running length, providing a balance of coverage, modesty, and unhindered leg movement.

Can I iron these shorts?

It is not recommended to iron the shorts, as the high heat can damage the synthetic Dri-FIT fabric and the reflective detailing.

How should I store them to maintain the fabric?

Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to ensure the reflective elements and fabric elasticity last as long as possible.

Troubleshooting

Shorts feel too tight in the waist during long runs

Loosen the external drawcord and ensure the waistband is positioned on your hips rather than the waist to reduce pressure.

Fabric retains a slight odor after washing

Use a technical fabric laundry detergent designed for athletic wear to effectively remove oils and bacteria trapped in synthetic fibers.

Phone bounces in the back pocket

Ensure the zipper is fully closed and the waistband is tightened sufficiently to keep the pocket flush against your lower back.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent sweat management during intense activity
  • Secure zipper pocket keeps phones stable while running
  • Hem vents significantly improve range of motion
  • Lightweight feel prevents the fabric from weighing you down

Cons

  • Internal brief fit can feel restrictive for some users
  • Limited storage options beyond the single back pocket
  • Minimalist design may not be suitable for multi-purpose casual wear

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your shorts remain in peak condition, follow these care guidelines. Always machine wash in cold water with similar colors to preserve the integrity of the Dri-FIT moisture-wicking fibers. Avoid using fabric softeners or bleach, as these chemicals can strip the performance finish from the material. For the best longevity, air dry the shorts or tumble dry on a low-heat setting. The adjustable drawcord allows for a personalized fit—ensure the cord is tied securely before starting your run to prevent it from snagging. The shorts are designed for standard sizing; if you fall between sizes, consider your preferred waist tension, as the internal brief is meant to fit snugly.
