Troubleshooting
Fabric feels damp after long workouts
Ensure the garment is not being worn over non-breathable underlayers, which can trap moisture.
Zipper feels stiff or stuck
Clean the zipper tracks of any debris or lint and ensure no fabric is caught inside the mechanism.
Material snagging or pilling
Wash the shorts inside out in a mesh laundry bag to protect the textured surface from contact with other garments.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep your Adidas Essentials Base Melange Shorts in optimal condition, machine wash them in cold water with similar colors. Avoid the use of fabric softeners, as these can degrade the moisture-wicking properties of the polyester fibers. It is recommended to air dry the garment to maintain the integrity of the fabric and the zipper mechanisms. Do not iron directly over any logos or synthetic textures. These shorts are compatible with a wide range of athletic footwear and compression base layers.
