Frequently Asked Question about STAR "Virgo" Men's Beach Volleyball Shorts - Sand-Off Technology

The Virgo is described as 'elegant' — does that mean it's more of a lifestyle short or a true performance piece?

Both, without compromise. The Virgo's refined aesthetic is the design choice, but the performance foundation is identical to the rest of the Sand-Off series — patented Sand-Off Technology, smooth-fiber technical fabric, ergonomic athletic cut, and a secure waistband built for high-intensity play. You get a cleaner, more understated look on the court without sacrificing a single performance feature. Style and substance in equal measure.

How does the Sand-Off Technology handle wet sand specifically — is it still effective after getting in the water?

Wet sand is actually the trickier challenge, and it's where the patented weave really proves itself. Because Sand-Off works at the fiber structure level rather than as a surface coating, it repels sand particles whether they're dry or damp. After coming out of the water, a quick shake removes the bulk of it — no heavy, sand-logged fabric weighing you down or irritating your skin for the rest of the match.

Will the Virgo Shorts maintain their shape and fit after a full season of regular washing?

That's built into the construction. The reinforced elastic waistband retains its tension wash after wash, the fade-resistant fabric holds its color and integrity under repeated UV and salt water exposure, and the ergonomic cut doesn't lose its shape over time. A full competitive season of training and tournament play is exactly what the Virgo Shorts are engineered to handle — season after season.
