Troubleshooting

Elastic waistband feeling loose

Ensure the waistband is not stretched by improper drying methods; avoid high heat in the dryer.

Ensure the garment is not layered under non-breathable outer layers and that you are wearing it as intended without obstructive undergarments.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Asics Road 5 Inch Running Shorts, follow these care guidelines:

  1. Washing: Machine wash in cold water with similar colors. Avoid using heavy detergents or fabric softeners that may degrade the moisture-wicking properties of the polyester.
  2. Drying: Air dry whenever possible to preserve the elastic waistband and fabric integrity. If you must use a dryer, choose a low-heat setting.
  3. Fit: These shorts feature a regular fit. If you are between sizes, consider your preference for a looser or more tailored feel around the thighs.
  4. Storage: Ensure pockets are emptied before washing to prevent potential snagging or damage to the interior lining.
