What is the length of the shorts?

How should I wash these shorts to prevent shrinkage?

Do the pockets have zippers or closures?

Troubleshooting

Elastic waist feels too tight or too loose

The elasticated waist is designed for a relaxed fit. If it feels uncomfortable, consider if the size is appropriate or if the shorts have been over-dried, which can sometimes shrink the elastic. Ensure you are following the recommended care instructions.

Fabric feels rough after washing

This can happen if the garment is over-dried or washed with harsh detergents. Always use a mild detergent and avoid high heat when drying. Line drying or tumble drying on a low setting is recommended. You can try a fabric softener on a subsequent wash, but avoid excessive use.

Pockets seem shallow

The pockets are designed for convenience with everyday small items. For security of larger items, consider using a bag or a different garment with deeper pockets. The shallow depth is a design choice for the relaxed style.
