They are highly compatible with other athletic apparel and footwear. Their classic black color also makes them easy to integrate into any workout ensemble. While they can be worn for casual activities, their primary benefits are realized during active use.
Care Instructions
To maintain the integrity of the Dri-FIT technology, fabric elasticity, and overall quality of your shorts, follow these care guidelines:
- Machine Wash Cold: Wash with like colors to prevent color bleeding.
- Gentle Cycle: Use a gentle cycle to protect the fabric.
- Do Not Bleach: Bleach can damage the fabric's properties and color.
- Tumble Dry Low: High heat can degrade elastic fibers and fabric performance. Air drying is also a good option.
- Do Not Iron: Ironing can damage the synthetic fibers and Dri-FIT technology.
