Troubleshooting
Drawcord is stuck or difficult to tighten
Ensure the cord is not twisted inside the waistband and pull both ends evenly to release tension.
Shorts feel damp after short periods of exercise
Ensure you are not using fabric softener during the wash cycle, as this inhibits the moisture-wicking performance of the polyester.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your New Balance Sport Essentials 7-Inch Shorts, follow these care instructions:
- Machine Wash: Use a cold cycle with similar colors. Avoid high heat as it can degrade the moisture-wicking fabric properties.
- Detergent: Use a mild, non-bleach detergent. Avoid fabric softeners, as these leave a residue that can clog the pores of the moisture-wicking fibers.
- Drying: Air drying is recommended to maintain the fabric's integrity. If using a dryer, select the low-heat setting.
- Fit Adjustment: Before starting your workout, utilize the external drawcords to achieve a snug fit around the waist to prevent slippage during high-intensity movement.
