FAQs

Are these shorts suitable for all young athletes?

These shorts are specifically designed for rugby, offering the durability and flexibility required for the sport. They are suitable for children aged 9-10 years (UK size L).

Why do these shorts not have pockets?

The absence of pockets is a design choice common in performance rugby shorts to ensure a streamlined fit, prevent snagging, and reduce bulk during play.

How do the stretch gussets help?

The independent star gusset in the crotch and stretch inserts on the leg hems are made of power stretch fabric. They provide extra room and flexibility in key areas, preventing the fabric from tearing during dynamic movements and allowing for a greater range of motion.

What does 'Rip-Stop' fabric mean?

Rip-stop fabric is woven with a special reinforcing technique that makes it highly resistant to tearing and ripping. Interlocking threads are woven in a crosshatch pattern, strengthening the material.

Can these shorts be worn for other sports?

Yes, while designed for rugby, their durable construction, quick-dry properties, and freedom of movement make them suitable for other high-impact sports or general athletic training.

How do I ensure the best fit?

The shorts feature an elasticated waistband with a drawcord. Adjust the drawcord for a secure, comfortable fit that prevents the shorts from slipping down during activity.

What is the material of the shorts?

The shorts are made from 100% Polyester twill, incorporating power stretch fabric for the gussets and leg inserts.

Troubleshooting

Shorts feel too loose

Tighten the internal drawcord to achieve a secure fit.

Fabric seems restrictive

Ensure the stretch gussets and side panels are correctly positioned. These are designed to expand with movement; check for any unusual bunching.

Stains on white fabric

Treat stains promptly with a mild detergent before washing. Use non-chlorine bleach only if necessary and as per care instructions.

Drawcord becomes frayed

If the drawcord frays, consider gently sealing the ends with a flame (with adult supervision) or replacing the cord if significantly damaged.
