Troubleshooting
Shorts feel too tight or restrictive.
Ensure you have selected the correct size. The 'hint of stretch' provides some give, but for a looser fit, consider sizing up. If the issue persists, check the product's sizing guide for specific measurements.
Color appears different than expected.
Washed-out finishes can vary slightly due to the dyeing process. View the product images on different screens if possible. The 'Ore' finish is designed to be a classic, authentic washed black.
Turn-up hem is uneven or difficult to adjust.
Carefully unfold the hem and re-fold it to your desired length. If the fabric is stiff, you can iron the fold in place. Ensure the shorts are laid flat when adjusting.
Denim feels stiff after washing.
This is common with new denim. Wear the shorts for a few hours; natural body heat and movement will help soften the fabric. You can also tumble dry on low heat for a short period.
