FAQs
What is the inseam length?
These shorts feature a 5-inch inseam, which is a standard length for performance running to maximize range of motion.
Can I use these for swimming?
While they feature quick-drying material, they are designed primarily for running. Use in chlorine or salt water may degrade the FlashDry tech over time.
Are the pockets large enough for a smartphone?
The pockets are designed for small essentials like keys, gels, or cards. Most modern smartphones will likely be too large for the provided storage.
What is FlashDry technology?
FlashDry is a material technology that accelerates the removal of moisture from the skin and speeds up the evaporation process.
Are these shorts machine washable?
Yes, they are machine washable. We recommend cold water and air drying to maintain the performance fabric.
Troubleshooting
Drawcord is difficult to tighten or loose
Ensure the internal drawcord is centered and not twisted before pulling both ends simultaneously to adjust tension.
Excessive friction during runs
Verify that the internal liner is positioned correctly against the skin and consider using an anti-chafing balm if runs exceed 60 minutes.
Moisture buildup in pockets
Ensure items are placed in the power-mesh pockets rather than the sealed zip pocket if ventilation is needed for small, non-electronic items.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Summit Pacesetter shorts, adjust the internal drawcord while standing to achieve a firm but comfortable tension that doesn't pinch. For care, always machine wash in cold water using a mild, technical-fabric-safe detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can degrade the FlashDry wicking capabilities over time. It is recommended to air dry the shorts away from direct sunlight to preserve the technical properties of the woven fabric. When storing, ensure the secure-zip pocket is empty to prevent stress on the zipper track.
