許多運動褲都會有網紗設計曾加透氣度, 但是這種薄的物料比較容易穿破, 最好就是手洗, 若必須使用洗衣機, 就記得先放入洗衣袋。但千萬不要使用乾衣模式，會破壞了物料質量！
Leggings with mesh panels are a popular style. These types of garments, while great for breathability and design, are easily snagged by other pieces of clothing during wash. We recommend you place the item inside a mesh bag and hang-dry. The high heat of the dryer can warp individual strands of fiber of your activewear and weaken the material.

另一個大家都可能會犯錯的可能是放柔順劑! 通常運動褲都有一個功能就是透氣快乾，但柔順劑的矽樹脂會形成了覆蓋在運動褲表面，大大減低了透氣度。
Another tip is avoid washing your legging with softeners. Most softeners contain silicone, which can create a coating on the fabric that weakens its breathability and wicking functions.
