Zenana Windbreaker Smocked Waistband Running Shorts | BLACK / S 100100931331340

How to measure this product

Lay the shorts flat on a smooth, hard surface. Smooth out wrinkles but do not stretch the fabric (except where noted). Measure to the nearest 1/4 inch (or 0.5 cm). When a measurement is taken "flat," double that number to report the full circumference.

1. Waist (smocked waistband)
   • Relaxed: Measure across the top edge of the waistband while it is unstretched. Double the flat measurement to get the relaxed waist circumference.
   • Stretched: Gently stretch the smocked band to its maximum comfortable extension and measure across. Double that number to show the maximum stretched circumference (useful to show fit range).
2. Hip / Seat
   • With the shorts lying flat, measure across the widest part of the shorts (usually about 2" / 5 cm below the crotch seam). Double the flat measurement for full hip circumference.
3. Inseam
   • Measure from the crotch seam (where the front and back seams meet) down the inside leg seam to the hem.
4. Outseam (Total length)
   • Measure from the highest point of the waistband (including smocking) straight down the outside seam to the hem.
5. Front rise
   • Measure from the top center of the front waistband down to the crotch seam.
6. Back rise
   • Measure from the top center of the back waistband down to the crotch seam.
7. Thigh width
   • Measure across the leg 1" (2.5 cm) below the crotch seam. Double the flat measurement for full thigh circumference.
8. Leg opening / Hem
   • Measure across the hem of one leg. Double for the full leg opening circumference.
9. Pocket depth (if present)
   • Measure from the pocket opening down to the bottom of the pocket bag.

Tips: record both flat and doubled values, show both relaxed and stretched waist for smocked bands, and note whether measurements include seam allowances. Conversion: 1 in = 2.54 cm.

How to measure yourself for the best fit

• Waist: Measure around the natural waist (or where you prefer the shorts to sit). Keep tape snug but not tight.
• Hips: Measure around the fullest part of your hips/seat.
• Inseam: Measure from the crotch to the desired leg length.
• Compare your body measurements to the garment measurements and allow 1–2" (2.5–5 cm) of ease unless you prefer a snug fit.

Materials

Typical components for a "Windbreaker Smocked Waistband Running Shorts" style:

• Shell: Lightweight woven polyester or nylon with a durable water-repellent (DWR) finish for wind- and light water-resistance.
• Lining: Breathable polyester mesh or tricot lining for moisture wicking and ventilation (may be partial or full lining).
• Waistband: Smocked (elasticized) waistband made from polyester blended with elastic thread or a small percentage of elastane/spandex for stretch and recovery.
• Pockets & trim: Pocket bags usually polyester/nylon; hardware (zippers, toggles) commonly plastic or coated metal; reflective trims where applicable.

Performance qualities you can highlight: lightweight, quick-drying, wind-resistant, breathable, and packable. For exact fiber content and percentages, always refer to the garment label or the retailer's product spec sheet.

Care guide (to keep it lovely longer)

1. Before washing: Empty pockets, close zippers, fasten any toggles, and turn the shorts inside out.
2. Machine wash: Cold water on a gentle cycle with like colors. Use a mild detergent and avoid bleach.
3. Avoid fabric softeners: Fabric softeners can reduce moisture-wicking performance and affect water-repellent finishes.
4. Delicates: Use a mesh laundry bag for extra protection if the garment has delicate trims or zippers.
5. Drying: Hang to dry or tumble dry low. High heat can harm elastic smocking and DWR coatings—remove promptly from the dryer.
6. Ironing: If needed, use a low-temperature setting and avoid ironing directly on elastic smocking or reflective trims. Use a pressing cloth.
7. Reproofing: Over time, DWR finishes lose effectiveness. Reapply a wash-in or spray-on DWR treatment following the product instructions to restore water-beading performance.
8. Spot cleaning: For small stains, gently dab with a mild soap and cool water rather than repeated full washes.
9. Storage: Fold and store in a cool, dry place. Avoid long-term hanging if the smocked waistband may stretch out over time.

Quick maintenance tips: wash less frequently when possible, avoid contact with abrasive surfaces and Velcro, and treat sunscreen or deodorant marks promptly to preserve fabric appearance.

Style tips

• For running: Pair with a moisture-wicking tank or fitted tee, supportive running shoes, and a lightweight packable wind layer for cool starts.
• For gym or training: Wear over compression shorts or a fitted base layer; add a cropped hoodie for post-workout comfort.
• Casual street look: Pair with an oversized tee or a cropped sweatshirt and sneakers or slides for a relaxed, sporty vibe.
• Layering for cooler weather: Wear thermal leggings or tights underneath and add a longline windbreaker on top.
• Proportion tips: Balance the slightly voluminous windbreaker shell with a more fitted top or tuck in your tee to highlight the smocked waist.
• Accessories: Try a running belt or small crossbody, performance socks, a visor or cap, and reflective pieces for low-light visibility.

Color & pattern pairing: use neutral tops to let bold short colors stand out, or match trims (like reflective tape or piping) with footwear accents for a coordinated look.
