FAQs

What kind of activities are these shorts best suited for?

These shorts are ideal for a wide range of junior athletic activities, including running, team sports, gym class, and general active play, thanks to their sweat-wicking technology and comfortable design.

Are these shorts suitable for both boys and girls?

Yes, the New Balance Accelerate Shorts Junior are designed with a unisex fit, making them appropriate for all junior athletes regardless of gender.

How should I wash these shorts to maintain their quality?

To maintain their quality and `NB DRY` performance, machine wash them in cold water with similar colors. Tumble dry on low heat or air dry. Avoid using bleach or fabric softeners, and do not iron directly on the branding.

Do these shorts have a built-in liner?

No, these shorts do not feature a built-in liner. They are designed to be a single-layer athletic short.

What does NB DRY technology do?

`NB DRY` is New Balance's proprietary technology designed to wick moisture away from the body, helping the wearer stay dry and comfortable during physical activity by enhancing evaporation.

Are these shorts environmentally friendly?

Yes, these shorts are made from 55% recycled polyester, contributing to a more sustainable product choice.

What does 'standard fit' mean for these shorts?

A standard fit provides a comfortable, athletic cut that's not too tight nor too loose, allowing for a full range of motion without restriction. For precise sizing, refer to the official New Balance size chart.

Troubleshooting

Shorts feel too loose or too tight around the waist.

Utilize the drawcord waistband to adjust the fit. If adjustment doesn't resolve the issue, confirm you have the correct size for the junior wearer by referring to the New Balance size chart.

Shorts don't seem to be wicking sweat effectively.

Ensure the shorts are clean, as residue from fabric softeners can impair wicking performance. Always wash according to care instructions. For very intense activities, sweat production might exceed the fabric's capacity.

Fabric appears to be snagging or showing wear prematurely.

Avoid washing with items that have zippers or hooks that could snag the fabric. Wash inside out. Always follow the recommended machine wash cycle and avoid harsh detergents.
