FAQs
Are these shorts suitable for swimming?
These shorts are designed for land-based training and moisture-wicking. While the polyester material is quick-drying, they are not intended as primary swimwear.
Can I remove the built-in brief?
The brief is integrated into the construction of the short for support and is not intended to be removed.
How do I choose the right size?
New Balance sizing follows standard athletic sizing. If you prefer a looser fit for squats, consider sizing up; otherwise, use your standard waist measurement.
Does the reflective logo wear off?
With proper care—specifically washing inside out and avoiding high-heat drying—the reflective logo is designed to remain intact for the life of the garment.
What is the primary material used?
The shorts are crafted from high-quality, performance-grade polyester, chosen for its durability and moisture-wicking properties.
Troubleshooting
Drawcord gets pulled inside the waistband
Use a safety pin attached to the end of the cord to carefully thread it back through the eyelet of the waistband.
Fabric snagging
Avoid contact with sharp surfaces or abrasive Velcro, which can cause pilling or pulled threads in the mechanical stretch weave.
Moisture management feels less effective
Ensure you are not using heavy fabric softeners during laundry, as they coat the fibers and block the moisture-wicking technology.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your New Balance shorts maintain their performance capabilities over time, follow these care instructions:
- Washing: Machine wash in cold water with like colors. Avoid using bleach or fabric softeners, as these can degrade the moisture-wicking performance of the fabric.
- Drying: Tumble dry on a low setting or hang to air dry. The synthetic polyester material dries quickly on its own.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Ensure pockets are emptied before washing to prevent damage to the interior liners.
- Compatibility: These shorts are designed primarily for athletic use and are compatible with all standard male training apparel.
