FAQs
Can these be worn without underwear?
Yes, they are designed with a built-in mesh liner intended to be worn as swimwear or casual athletic wear.
Are these shorts true to size?
They are generally true to size, but the elastic waistband allows for some flexibility; if you are between sizes, refer to the sizing guide.
What is the inseam length?
This specific model features a 5-inch inseam, which sits well above the knee.
Are the pockets deep enough for a smartphone?
They are designed for small essentials, but a modern large smartphone may be insecure; the rear snap pocket is better for small items like keys.
Are these shorts PFAS-free?
Yes, the DWR finish on this product is made without intentionally added PFAS.
Where are these shorts manufactured?
They are manufactured in a Fair Trade Certified factory, ensuring workers receive premiums for their labor.
Troubleshooting
Drawstring feels loose or slips during activity
Tie a secure double-knot and ensure the elastic band is sitting flat against your waist.
Water no longer beads on the fabric
The DWR finish may be worn out; wash the shorts and tumble dry on low to reactivate the coating, or apply a PFAS-free DWR refresh treatment.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These shorts require no setup. Simply adjust the internal drawcord for your desired tension. To maintain the integrity of the fabric and the DWR finish, follow these care instructions:
- Washing: Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle.
- Detergents: Use mild soap; avoid bleach and fabric softeners which can degrade the DWR coating.
- Drying: Tumble dry on low heat or hang dry in the shade to preserve the material fibers.
- Reactivating DWR: If water stops beading on the surface after extensive use, a gentle tumble in a warm dryer or an aftermarket DWR spray can help restore performance.
