FAQs
What is NB DRY technology?
NB DRY is New Balance's proprietary fast-drying technology that wicks moisture away from your body, helping you stay cool and dry during exercise.
Are these shorts suitable for swimming?
While the material is quick-drying, these shorts are designed primarily for athletic training and not as swimwear.
How deep are the hand pockets?
The hand pockets are designed to hold small essentials like keys or cards securely. Specific depth measurements are not provided, but they are typical for athletic shorts.
What is the inseam length?
The inseam length for these shorts is 7 inches.
Can I wear these without underwear?
Yes, the shorts feature a breathable built-in brief designed to provide support and comfort, allowing you to wear them without additional underwear.
How do I know which size to order?
Refer to the New Balance sizing chart, paying attention to waist measurements. The regular fit is designed for comfort, so choose a size that aligns with your preferred fit.
Will the reflective logo wear off?
With proper care (avoiding high heat drying and harsh detergents), the reflective logo should maintain its visibility for the lifespan of the garment.
Troubleshooting
Shorts feel restrictive
Ensure you have selected the correct size. The mechanical stretch offers flexibility, but a size too small will limit movement.
Moisture-wicking seems less effective
Check that you are not using fabric softener during washing, as this can clog the fibers. Wash with like colors in cold water and avoid high heat drying.
Drawcord comes undone
Tie a secure knot after adjusting the drawcord. If the drawcord itself is fraying, consider a replacement.
