Product Information

Full details

The Mountain Warehouse Women's Explorer Long Shorts are designed for adult women seeking durable and comfortable apparel for outdoor adventures. Their key benefit lies in their lightweight, quick-dry fabric with built-in UV protection, ensuring comfort during sunny expeditions. A potential caveat is their simple, plain design, which may not appeal to those seeking highly stylized activewear. These shorts feature two zippered side pockets for secure storage, an adjustable drawcord and elastic waistband, and an extended length for increased coverage.

FAQs

What activities are these shorts best suited for?

These shorts are ideal for hiking, walking, travel, and general outdoor activities, especially in sunny or warm conditions due to their quick-dry and UV protection features.

How do I adjust the fit of the shorts?

The shorts feature an elastic waistband combined with a drawcord. You can tighten or loosen the waistband by adjusting the drawcord to achieve your preferred fit.

Can I store valuables safely in the pockets?

Yes, the shorts come with two zippered side pockets, which are designed to securely hold essentials like keys, a phone, or a wallet.

What is the material of the shorts?

The shorts are crafted from a blend of Elastane Polyamide and Polyester, offering durability and comfort.

Are these shorts waterproof?

No, the shorts are not waterproof. They are designed with quick-dry fabric technology to manage moisture from sweat and light rain.

How should I wash and care for the shorts?

Machine wash with similar colors using a mild detergent. Avoid bleach. Tumble dry on low heat or air dry. Iron on a low setting if needed.

Troubleshooting

Drawcord comes undone

Gently pull the drawcord through the waistband. If it has fully detached, use a safety pin to guide it back through the casing.

Fabric feels stiff after washing

Ensure you are using a mild detergent and avoid fabric softeners, which can sometimes affect fabric performance. Air drying can also help maintain fabric softness.

Zipper is difficult to operate

Check for any fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Gently try to free any obstruction. Lubricate the zipper with a graphite pencil or wax if it continues to stick.
