Product Information
Full details
The Billabong Crossfire Solid Shorts are designed for active adults who need a versatile garment that transitions seamlessly from water to land. Featuring a 4-way stretch fabric and a quick-dry Micro Repel coating, these shorts offer excellent mobility and durability for various activities, though the fixed waist design means they lack the adjustability of drawstring-style boardshorts.

FAQs
Can these be worn as regular casual shorts?
Yes, the chino-style aesthetic is specifically designed to look like a standard walk short.
Does the pocket zip keep water out?
No, the zipper pocket is designed to keep items secure within the pocket, but it is not waterproof.
How do I ensure the right fit?
These use a standard waist measurement system (e.g., 34); refer to the size label to ensure they match your standard trouser size.
Are these shorts machine washable?
Yes, they are machine washable. We recommend cold water and a gentle cycle.
What is the outseam length?
These shorts have a 20-inch outseam, providing a modern fit that typically falls just above or at the knee.
Troubleshooting
Water spots remain after drying
Rinse thoroughly with fresh water to remove salt or chlorine residue, then air dry completely.
Fabric feels stiff after multiple uses
Soak the shorts in cool, fresh water for 30 minutes to remove mineral accumulation and allow them to drip dry in the shade.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Dries very quickly due to Micro Repel coating
- Versatile design functions as both a walk short and a boardshort
- Secure zipper pocket for items like keys or wallets
- Durable polyester fabric maintains its shape well
Cons
- Fixed waist does not offer the adjustability of elastic or drawstring waistbands
- Polyester material lacks the soft, breathable feel of cotton
- Limited to specific sizing rather than one-size-fits-all elastic
Setup, Compatibility & Care
These shorts utilize a standard button and fly closure system. To maintain the effectiveness of the Micro Repel treatment, rinse the shorts with fresh water after every use in saltwater or chlorinated pools to remove chemical buildup. For long-term care, machine wash in cold water on a gentle cycle. Avoid using fabric softeners, as these can strip the hydrophobic quick-dry coating from the fabric fibers. Air drying is highly recommended to preserve the integrity of the material and prevent the heat damage often associated with high-temperature tumble drying.
