These Castelli women's shorts are super easy to use. Just put them on like your regular shorts and you're good to go for your daily activities or workouts. When it comes to care, you can machine - wash them in cold water to keep the colors vibrant and the fabric in good shape. Avoid using bleach as it might damage the special seat pad. Hang them to dry instead of using a dryer to prevent shrinkage. And remember, don't store them in a damp place to avoid mildew.
