Troubleshooting
Fabric feels stiff after washing
Ensure you are washing with similar colors and at the recommended temperature. Hang drying is preferred over machine drying to maintain fabric flexibility.
Zipper on the side pocket is difficult to use
Gently try to move the zipper back and forth. If it persists, a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) applied to the teeth can help lubricate it.
Shorts feel slightly restrictive during extreme movement
While designed for stretch, individual range of motion can vary. Consider if the regular fit is optimal for your specific activities. Ensure the waistband is not too tight.
