FAQs
What materials are the Lacoste Core Performance 8 Inch Shorts made from?
The main fabric is 100% polyester, designed for durability and lightness. The lining is a blend of 65% polyester and 35% cotton.
Are these shorts suitable for intense athletic training?
Yes, they are designed for core performance and training. The lightweight, flexible, and durable fabric blend, along with the adjustable waistband, makes them suitable for various athletic activities including running, gym workouts, and court sports.
Do these shorts have pockets?
Yes, these shorts are equipped with convenient side pockets for storing small items.
How do I ensure the embroidered Lacoste crocodile logo lasts?
To protect the embroidered logo, it is recommended to wash the shorts inside out on a gentle cycle. Avoid direct ironing on the logo.
What is the inseam length of these shorts?
These shorts feature an 8-inch inseam, providing a comfortable length suitable for athletic performance and casual wear.
Can I machine dry these shorts?
Yes, you can machine dry them, but it's best to use a low heat setting or tumble dry low to preserve the fabric's integrity and elasticity. Air drying is also an excellent option.
Troubleshooting
Shorts feel too loose or keep slipping during activity.
Ensure the elasticated waistband is snug and fully utilize the inner tie-cord/drawstring to cinch the waist to your desired tightness.
Fabric feels stiff or less flexible after washing.
Verify that you are washing in cold water and drying on a low heat setting or air drying. High heat can damage the synthetic fibers, affecting flexibility. Avoid excessive use of fabric softener as it can build up on performance fabrics.
Embroidered logo shows signs of wear or peeling.
Always wash the shorts inside out to protect the embroidery from friction with other garments or machine parts. Use a gentle wash cycle.
