FAQs

What is the main material composition of these shorts?

The shorts are primarily made from a blend of 42% cotton, 37% recycled polyester, 15% viscose, 5% recycled cotton, and 1% elastane.

How should I care for my denim shorts to make them last longer?

Machine wash them cold, inside out, with similar colors. Tumble dry on low heat or hang them to dry. Avoid bleach.

What does 'stone washed' mean for the appearance?

Stone washing is a process that gives the denim a pre-worn, faded look, making the shorts appear softer and more relaxed from the first wear.

Are these shorts suitable for hot weather?

While they are made with a cotton blend, the inclusion of polyester and viscose means they might be less breathable than 100% cotton shorts in very high temperatures. However, they are generally comfortable for warm weather casual wear.

What is the rise of the waist on these shorts?

These shorts feature a mid-rise waist, designed to sit comfortably at your natural waistline.

Can I find these shorts in other colors or sizes?

Jack & Jones offers various styles and colors. You may find similar shorts in different color families like Beige, Brown, and Grey, and in various sizes. Please check the product catalog for available options.

What is the fit type of these shorts?

The shorts have a regular fit, characterized by a regular thigh and a regular leg opening for a classic, comfortable silhouette.

Troubleshooting

Shorts feel too tight after washing

Denim can shrink slightly. If they feel too tight, try stretching the waistband gently while damp or allow them to air dry instead of using a dryer. If the issue persists, consider if a larger size might be more appropriate for future purchases.

Color is fading unevenly

This can occur with regular washing and wear, especially with stone-washed finishes. To minimize uneven fading, wash inside out and avoid harsh detergents or bleach. If the fading is undesirable, consider professional garment dyeing or accept it as part of the garment's character.

Button fly is difficult to fasten

Ensure all buttons are properly aligned with their buttonholes. If a buttonhole feels particularly tight, gently work a small, blunt object (like the end of a pen) through it to loosen it slightly. Avoid forcing the buttons.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Durable construction suitable for regular wear.
  • Stylish stone-washed finish for a casual look.
  • Practical pocket layout for everyday items.
  • Comfortable regular fit with a mid-rise waist.
  • Includes recycled materials, contributing to sustainability.

Cons

  • Material blend might be less breathable than pure cotton in extreme heat.
  • Specific wash/finish may vary slightly between units.
  • As with all denim, prolonged exposure to direct sunlight could lead to further fading.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

These shorts require no setup as they are ready to wear upon purchase. They are compatible with most casual tops and footwear. To maintain their appearance and integrity:

  1. Washing: Machine wash cold, inside out, with like colors. Use a mild detergent.
  2. Drying: Tumble dry low or hang dry for best results and to minimize shrinkage.
  3. Ironing: If needed, iron on a medium heat setting. Avoid ironing directly on any printed graphics if present.
  4. Bleaching: Do not bleach, as this can damage the fabric and fade the color unevenly.
  5. Dry Cleaning: Avoid dry cleaning, as the chemicals can degrade the fibers.
