FAQs

Are these shorts suitable for swimming?

These shorts are designed for land-based athletic training. While the material is durable, they are not specifically marketed as board shorts or swimwear.

Can I remove the built-in brief?

The brief is sewn directly into the shorts for support and is not intended to be removed. Attempting to do so may damage the structural integrity of the shorts.

How do I choose the right size?

These shorts follow standard men's sizing. Refer to the New Balance official size chart for your waist measurement to select between the XS to XXL range.

Are the pockets deep enough for a smartphone?

The hand pockets are designed for small essentials. Most modern large-screen smartphones may not fit securely in the pockets during intense exercise.

Does the reflective logo fade?

The reflective logo is designed for durability, but washing the shorts inside out and avoiding high-heat drying will help maintain its reflective properties.

Troubleshooting

Shorts feel loose during movement

Adjust the externally facing drawcords to achieve a tighter, more secure fit around your waist.

Fabric feels heavy after washing

Ensure all soap residue is rinsed out and avoid heavy fabric conditioners that trap moisture in the fibers.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent moisture-wicking capabilities for long workouts
  • Lightweight and breathable material construction
  • Reflective logo improves safety in dim environments

  • Requires careful laundering to maintain moisture-wicking properties

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your New Balance Sport Essentials 7-Inch Shorts, follow these care guidelines:

  1. Washing: Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with like colors to protect the polyester fibers.
  2. Avoid Fabric Softeners: Do not use fabric softeners as they can coat the moisture-wicking technology and reduce the effectiveness of the fabric.
  3. Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting or air dry to prevent damage to the fabric's elasticity.
  4. Ironing: Avoid ironing directly over the reflective logo to prevent melting or damage to the high-visibility components.
