FAQs
What material are these shorts made of?
They are constructed from 100% durable, water-resistant polyester.
Are these shorts suitable for intense lap swimming?
Yes, the regular fit and elastic waistband are designed to support active movement in the water.
How should I wash my adidas swim shorts?
Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle and always air dry to protect the material and waistband elasticity.
Do these shorts have pockets?
The product is designed as a minimalist performance swim short; please check the specific inner lining for small key pockets if present.
How does the sizing run?
These shorts feature a regular fit. It is recommended to choose your standard waist size as indicated in the sizing guide.
Can I wear these as casual shorts outside of the pool?
While they are intended for swimming, the classic striped design makes them suitable for casual beach or poolside wear.
Troubleshooting
Waistband feels loose after repeated use
Ensure the internal drawstring (if applicable to your specific sub-model) is tied securely and avoid drying in high-heat machines which can degrade the elasticity.
Fabric holds onto pool odor
Soak the shorts in a mixture of cold water and a small amount of mild detergent, then rinse thoroughly with fresh water.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These swim shorts are ready to wear immediately. To ensure the longest life for your garment, please follow these care instructions:
- Rinse After Use: Always rinse the shorts with fresh, cool water after swimming in a chlorinated pool or saltwater to remove chemical or salt residue.
- Washing: Machine wash in cold water using a gentle cycle with similar colors.
- Drying: Air dry in a shaded area. Avoid direct sunlight for prolonged periods, as this can fade colors, and avoid using a tumble dryer as heat can damage the elastic components.
- Storage: Ensure the shorts are completely dry before storing them in your gym bag to prevent odor or mildew buildup.
