FAQs
Are these shorts true to size?
Yes, they follow standard sizing, but because they are 100% cotton without stretch, some customers prefer to size up if they prefer a looser fit.
How long are the shorts exactly?
These are Bermuda-style longline shorts, typically hitting just above or at the mid-thigh area.
Can I bleach these shorts?
It is not recommended to use bleach on these shorts as it will degrade the cotton fibers and alter the black pigment of the denim.
Does the waist have stretch?
No, the waistband is made from structured denim cotton and does not provide significant elasticity.
What is the best way to prevent the hem from fraying further?
Always wash them in a mesh laundry bag to reduce friction against other garments, and avoid aggressive wash cycles.
Troubleshooting
The frayed hem is becoming too long or messy.
Carefully use a sharp pair of fabric scissors to trim any long, loose threads, ensuring you don't cut into the structural stitching of the leg.
The fit feels stiff after drying.
Cotton fibers can stiffen when air-dried. Gently stretch the fabric by hand or tumble them on an 'air fluff' (no heat) setting with a clean dryer ball to soften the fibers.
Zipper feels tight or difficult to pull.
Rub a small amount of candle wax or a graphite pencil lead along the teeth of the zipper to lubricate the mechanism.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Stradivarius D93 shorts maintain their fit and look, follow these care instructions:
- Washing: Turn the shorts inside out before placing them in the machine to protect the frayed hem. Wash in cold water on a delicate cycle.
- Drying: Air dry whenever possible. If you must use a dryer, choose a low heat setting to prevent the cotton from shrinking.
- Ironing: Use a medium-hot iron to press the waistband or pockets, but avoid ironing directly over the frayed hem to prevent further fraying or singeing.
- Storage: Hang the shorts by the belt loops or fold them neatly in a drawer to maintain their shape.
