FAQs
Are these shorts suitable for swimming?
While the fabric is quick-drying, these are designed as athletic running shorts and do not contain chlorine-resistant liners suitable for pool use.
Does the XL size fit true to size?
The Asics Core series generally follows standard athletic sizing; the regular fit provides a relaxed feel, but refer to the sizing chart for exact waist measurements.
Can I use the pockets for a large smartphone?
The side pockets are designed for small essentials like keys, cards, or energy gels and may not securely accommodate larger modern smartphones.
How should I wash them to preserve the reflective details?
Always wash the shorts inside out and avoid ironing the areas with reflective logos or strips.
What is the primary material used?
The shorts are constructed using performance polyester, often utilizing at least 50% recycled materials.
Is the waistband elastic?
Yes, they feature an elasticated waistband supplemented by an adjustable internal drawstring.
Troubleshooting
Drawstring feels difficult to tighten
Ensure the lace is not twisted inside the waistband casing and pull evenly from both sides.
Fabric appears to catch on rough surfaces
Avoid contact with abrasive surfaces or velcro fasteners, as the lightweight technical material can snag.
Reflective strips fading after heavy use
Ensure the garment is washed inside out to minimize friction against other clothes or the drum of the washer.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Asics Core 7in Shorts maintain their performance qualities over time, follow these care guidelines:
- Washing: Machine wash in cold water with similar colors to prevent dye transfer.
- Detergents: Avoid using heavy fabric softeners, as they can coat the moisture-wicking fibers and reduce breathability.
- Drying: Air dry or use a low-heat tumble dry setting. High heat can damage the synthetic fibers and reflective elements.
- Storage: Hang the shorts or fold them neatly to keep the elastic waistband from becoming overstretched.
- Fit Check: Ensure the drawstring is tied firmly but comfortably before starting your activity to prevent shifting during movement.
