FAQs
What type of fabric is the Sprint Hoodie made from?
The hoodie is made from Q-Wic fabric, which is lightweight, soft, stretchy, sweat-wicking, and quick-drying.
Is this hoodie suitable for very cold weather?
It is a lightweight hoodie designed primarily for workouts and mild conditions. For very cold weather, it is best used as a base or mid-layer under warmer outerwear.
How do I determine my correct size?
Refer to the Dare 2b size guide available on their website or product pages. Measurements for chest, waist, and hips are typically provided to help you find the best fit.
Can I wear this hoodie for running in the sun?
Yes, the hoodie features UPF 50+ protection, making it suitable for outdoor activities on sunny days to help shield your skin from UV rays.
What is the benefit of the anti-bacterial odour control?
This feature helps to inhibit the growth of bacteria that cause odour, keeping you feeling fresh during and after your workouts.
Are the thumbholes adjustable?
The thumbholes are integrated into the cuffs and are not adjustable. They are designed to help keep the sleeves in place and provide extra coverage for the hands.
What should I do if the colour fades?
To maintain colour vibrancy, wash the garment inside out in cold water and avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight when drying.
Troubleshooting
Hoodie feels tight or restrictive.
Ensure you have selected the correct size. Refer to the brand's sizing chart. If the fit is consistently too snug, consider an alternative style with a more relaxed fit.
Fabric is not wicking sweat effectively.
Check that you are using a mild detergent and have avoided fabric softeners. Residue from harsh detergents or softeners can clog the fabric's wicking properties. Wash with a small amount of white vinegar to help remove residue.
Odour persists after washing.
Soak the garment in a solution of cool water and baking soda for a few hours before washing again. Ensure the garment is thoroughly dried, as moisture can encourage bacterial growth.
