FAQs
Can I tumble dry these shorts?
It is recommended to air dry the shorts to protect the compression material from high-heat damage.
Are these shorts high-waisted?
The lifting design features a contoured cut that typically sits at a mid-to-high position to maximize the sculpting effect.
Will my phone fit in the back pocket?
The pocket is designed for small essentials like keys or cards; it is likely too small for modern smartphones.
What material are the shorts made from?
These shorts are constructed from a durable, flexible polyester blend designed for support and comfort.
Do these shorts run true to size?
They follow standard UK dress sizing, though the compression fit may feel snugger than casual shorts.
Troubleshooting
Fabric feels restrictive during deep stretches
Ensure the shorts are positioned correctly on the waist and hips. If the fit remains too tight, verify the sizing aligns with standard UK dress sizing.
Visible wear or thinning of fabric
Check if the shorts are being washed with abrasive items like zippers or denim. Always wash in a mesh laundry bag to protect the compression material.
