FAQs
Are these shorts suitable for swimming?
While the fabric is breathable, these are designed as athletic/casual shorts and not as dedicated board shorts; they may hold water longer than specialized swimwear.
How do I determine my size?
These shorts feature a regular fit; we recommend choosing your standard size based on your typical waist measurement as indicated in the product sizing chart.
Does the waistband have belt loops?
No, these shorts are designed with an elasticated waistband and internal drawstring for a comfortable, pull-on fit.
Can I put these in the dryer?
Yes, but we recommend using a low-heat setting to extend the lifespan of the elastic and the integrity of the fabric.
Are the pockets deep enough for a phone?
The side pockets are designed for everyday carry items like keys or a wallet, but they are not specifically reinforced for large, heavy devices.
Troubleshooting
Drawstring has retracted into the waistband
Use a safety pin attached to one end of the drawstring to carefully guide it back through the waistband channel.
Fabric feels damp after long workouts
Ensure the shorts are washed frequently to prevent salt and sweat buildup, which can reduce moisture-wicking efficiency.
Visible lint or pilling on the fabric
Wash the shorts inside out and avoid mixing with abrasive fabrics like denim to keep the surface smooth.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Getting the right fit is essential; ensure you select the correct size based on your standard waist measurements (ranging from XS to XXL). To maintain the integrity of the elastic waistband and the quality of the logo print, it is recommended to machine wash these shorts in cold water with similar colors. Avoid using harsh bleach or heavy fabric softeners, as these can degrade the technical moisture-wicking properties of the fibers. For drying, a low-heat tumble dry or air drying is best to prevent shrinking or damage to the elastic components. If ironing is required, do so on a low setting and avoid direct contact with the logo graphic.
