What's wrong with hanging as pair of shorts out for an hr or 2?

All my shorts seems to dry real quick no matter what the material.

It says on the site and on their shorts, "Do not dry the Inspirit shorts." My Inspirits take like a hour and a half to air dry. Most fight shorts can't be put in the dryer. I don't know what or if anything will happen to them in the dryer, but I'm not risking the $50 I paid for them to find out.

LoL! Exactly! The dryer can be pretty harsh on all fabrics. Something about the rapid evaporation of water I guess?
