FAQs

What material are the Diesel De-Sire Shorts made of?

The Diesel De-Sire Shorts are made from 100% cotton denim.

How should I wash these shorts?

Machine wash cold, inside out, with like colors on a gentle cycle. Do not bleach.

What does 'distressed' mean in the product description?

Distressed refers to intentional wear-and-tear effects, such as rips and abrasions, applied to the denim to give it a pre-worn, vintage look.

Are these shorts suitable for hot weather?

Yes, the cotton denim and relaxed fit make them comfortable for warm weather.

Can the raw hem be adjusted?

The raw hem is part of the design. While it may naturally fray further, it can be altered by a tailor if a different finish is desired.

What is the fit of the De-Sire Short?

The De-Sire Short has a relaxed, knee-length fit.

Troubleshooting

Distressing appears to be increasing excessively.

This can happen with wear. If it's undesirable, consider reinforcing the edges of the rips internally or washing the garment less frequently.

Fraying at the hem is more than desired.

The raw hem is designed to fray slightly. If excessive fraying occurs, you can carefully trim loose threads or consider a professional alteration to secure the hem.

Shorts feel too tight or too loose.

Denim can vary in fit. Consult the size chart for precise measurements before purchasing, and consider trying on if possible. Wash and dry on high heat to shrink slightly, or seek alterations for a custom fit.
