FAQs
Can I wear these shorts on artificial turf?
Yes, the padding is designed to provide protection against the impact of various surfaces, including artificial turf.
Are these shorts suitable for outfield players?
While technically usable, the hip padding is specifically designed for the diving requirements of goalkeepers and may feel unnecessary for outfield players.
How do I choose the right size?
These shorts follow standard adidas sizing; refer to the sizing chart based on your usual waist measurements for the best fit.
Is the padding removable?
No, the padding is sewn into the fabric construction to ensure it stays in the correct ergonomic position during movement.
Does the fabric shrink after washing?
When washed according to instructions (cold water and low heat), the polyester material is highly resistant to shrinking.
Troubleshooting
Padding feels stiff or restrictive
The pads are designed to mold slightly to your body with heat and movement; try a short warm-up session to let the materials soften.
Shorts slipping during intense movement
Ensure the internal drawstring is securely knotted after pulling the elastic waistband to your preferred tightness.
Sweat accumulation during play
Ensure you are wearing these shorts directly against the skin without thick underlayers that might trap moisture.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your shorts last throughout the season, follow these care instructions:
- Washing: Machine wash in cold water with similar colors to prevent fading.
- Detergent: Use a mild detergent; avoid harsh bleaches or fabric softeners that can degrade the moisture-wicking properties of the polyester.
- Drying: Air dry whenever possible. If you must use a dryer, choose a low-heat setting to avoid damaging the foam padding.
- Fit: The shorts are designed with a regular fit; choose your standard size for the best results.
