How should I wash these shorts?
They are machine washable. It is recommended to wash them on a gentle cycle with similar colors in cold water and tumble dry on low.
Do the drawstrings actually tighten the waistband?
Yes, the drawstrings are functional and can be used to adjust and secure the elasticated waistband for a better fit.
Troubleshooting
Drawstring comes loose or gets tangled
Carefully guide the drawstring back through the waistband using a safety pin. If it has come out completely, thread it through using a loop turner or safety pin attached to the end.
Pockets do not lay flat
Ensure the contents are not bulky. Try smoothing the pocket fabric after washing and drying.
Shrinking after washing
Check the care label for specific washing temperatures. Always use cold water and air dry or tumble dry on low heat to minimize shrinkage.
