FAQs
Are these shorts suitable for other sports besides running?
While optimized for running with features like dryCELL and ergonomic cutlines, they can be comfortable for other low-impact activities like gym workouts or yoga, though they may not offer the specific support of sport-specific apparel.
What does 'dryCELL' technology do?
dryCELL is PUMA's designation for moisture-wicking materials that draw sweat away from your skin to keep you dry and comfortable during exercise.
How do I know if I've chosen the right size?
Refer to the PUMA sizing chart for apparel, paying close attention to waist and hip measurements. The adjustable waistband offers some flexibility, but a correct base size ensures the best overall fit.
Can I wear these in cold weather?
These shorts are lightweight and designed for performance in moderate to warm conditions. For cold weather, consider layering them over base layers or choosing warmer running tights.
What is the benefit of the ergonomic cutlines?
Ergonomic cutlines are shaped to complement the body's natural movements, providing enhanced freedom and flexibility, reducing chafing, and improving overall comfort during physical activity.
Are these shorts see-through when stretched?
The material is designed for athletic performance. When selecting the correct size and not overstretching, they should not be see-through. However, excessive stretching or improper sizing can affect opacity.
How much of the product is made from recycled materials?
These shorts are made with at least 50% recycled materials, aligning with PUMA's commitment to sustainability.
Troubleshooting
Shorts feel too tight or too loose
Adjust the waistband using the integrated drawstring to achieve a secure but comfortable fit. Ensure you have selected the correct size based on the provided size chart.
Discomfort during long runs
Check the waistband adjustment and ensure it's not too constrictive. Consider if the inseam length is appropriate for your preference.
Pilling or wear after washing
Follow the recommended washing instructions carefully, especially regarding water temperature and drying methods. Avoid washing with abrasive items like jeans or items with zippers.
Phone does not fit securely in the pocket
The pocket is designed for essentials. For larger phones, consider using an armband or a running belt for more secure storage.
