Using these bike pants is easy. Just put them on like you would any other pair of pants. The high - waisted design should sit comfortably around your waist, helping to engage your core as you move. For workouts, whether it's running or high - intensity training, they'll offer great support and flexibility. When it comes to cleaning, you can machine - wash them on a gentle cycle with cold water. Avoid using harsh detergents or bleach as they might damage the fabric. Hang them to dry instead of using a dryer to maintain their shape and elasticity. Also, make sure to empty the internal waistband pocket before washing to prevent any items from getting lost or damaged.
