FAQs
Are these shorts suitable for swimming?
While the fabric is quick-drying polyester, these are designed as athletic running shorts, not board shorts, and do not include a chlorine-resistant treatment.
Do these shorts have an inner liner?
The Salomon Shakeout 7" shorts are designed as a versatile performance garment; check the specific product label to confirm if a brief liner is present for your specific model year.
How do I choose the right size?
Refer to the Salomon size guide. If you are between sizes, the integrated drawcord allows for some flexibility, but generally, choose the size that fits your waist comfortably.
Can I iron these shorts?
It is not recommended to iron these shorts, as high heat can damage the synthetic fibers and the reflective elements.
What is the best way to wash the reflective branding?
Turn the shorts inside out before washing to protect the reflective logo from direct abrasion against the machine drum.
Troubleshooting
Drawcord is stuck or difficult to pull
Ensure the cord is not twisted inside the waistband tunnel; smooth it out manually and avoid over-tightening the initial knot.
Fabric feels heavy or retains sweat
Check if fabric softener was used in previous washes; if so, wash without softener to restore the wicking performance.
Zipper feels stiff
Clear any debris or grit from the zipper track and ensure no fabric is caught in the teeth before opening or closing.
Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Salomon Shakeout shorts maintain their performance characteristics, proper care is essential.
- Setup: Before your first run, adjust the elastic drawcord to your preferred tension level to prevent shifting.
- Cleaning: Always machine wash in cold water with similar colors. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can clog the moisture-wicking pores of the polyester fabric.
- Drying: Air dry the shorts whenever possible. If you must use a dryer, select the lowest heat setting to prevent the reflective branding from peeling or the fabric from losing its structural integrity.
- Storage: Ensure pockets are zipped shut before washing to avoid snagging or damaging the zippers during the cycle.
