FAQs
Are these shorts suitable for swimming?
While the material is quick-drying polyester, these are designed as casual outdoor shorts, not dedicated swimwear.
Do the pockets have zippers?
No, the shorts feature four open-style pockets for easy access.
What is the best way to wash them?
Wash in the machine at 40 degrees Celsius using a gentle cycle and mild detergent.
Does the oversized fit mean I should size down?
If you prefer a more regular fit, you might want to consider sizing down, though the waist is designed to be comfortable and adjustable.
Are these shorts good for long-distance hiking?
They are great for general hiking, but ensure you are comfortable with an open-pocket design if you plan on carrying valuables.
Troubleshooting
Fabric snagging on rough surfaces
While durable, synthetic fibers can snag. Avoid contact with sharp brambles or jagged rocks, and if a thread pulls, trim it carefully with scissors rather than pulling it.
Feeling too loose during physical activity
Utilize the adjustable leg endings to tighten the hem and ensure the shorts remain positioned correctly while moving.
Pros and Cons

- Secure and comfortable waist with elasticated back

Cons
- Oversized fit may feel too baggy for some users

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep your shorts in top condition, follow standard care protocols for synthetic fabrics. Machine wash at 40 degrees Celsius on a gentle cycle, preferably using a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners as they can interfere with the technical properties of the synthetic weave. Do not tumble dry at high temperatures; air drying is recommended to maintain the integrity of the fabric and prevent unnecessary wear. Because of the oversized sizing, check the size chart carefully; if you usually wear a slim-fit, you may want to consider sizing down for a more traditional look.
