FAQs

Are these shorts suitable for intense running?

Yes, the 3-inch inseam and inner liner are specifically designed to support high-intensity movement without restricting range of motion.

What size should I choose if I am a UK 8?

The XS size is designated for a UK 8 fit; however, always refer to the specific brand size chart if you are between sizes.

Do the shorts have pockets?

The design focuses on a streamlined, lightweight aesthetic and does not include external storage pockets.

Can these be tumble dried?

It is recommended to air dry these shorts to maintain the elasticity of the waistband and the integrity of the technical fabrics.

Is the fabric see-through?

The inclusion of the inner layer provides an additional barrier for modesty and coverage during movement.

Troubleshooting

Waistband feels too loose after multiple washes

Avoid high heat in the dryer, which can break down elastic fibers prematurely; stick to air drying.

Fabric irritation during long distance runs

Ensure the shorts are pulled high enough to allow the inner liner to sit flush against the skin for maximum support.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your New Balance 3 Inch Shorts remain in peak condition, always follow the care label instructions provided on the garment. It is generally recommended to machine wash in cold water with similar colours to prevent fading. Avoid using harsh bleaching agents or heavy-duty fabric softeners, as these can degrade the elasticity of the waistband and the performance of the inner liner. Air drying is encouraged to preserve the shape and longevity of the synthetic fibres. Ensure you consult the size guide before purchase to verify that your UK size 8 (XS) corresponds correctly with your personal preference for fit.
