FAQs

Do these shorts offer full sun protection?

They provide UVA and UVB protection only for the skin covered by the garment. You must still apply sunscreen to exposed areas.

Are these shorts water-resistant?

They are designed with Dri-FIT technology for moisture management, but they are not categorized as waterproof.

What is the fit like?

These shorts feature an 'Oversized' fit, meaning they are designed to be loose and roomy, falling at the knee.

Can I use these for swimming?

While made of polyester, they are designed primarily as lifestyle and training shorts rather than dedicated swimwear.

How many pockets do the shorts have?

They have two zip-secured hand pockets and one zip-secured back pocket.

Troubleshooting

Drawcord gets stuck in the waistband

Gently massage the fabric around the exit hole to work the knot or tip back through the channel.

Zipper feels stiff

Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper teeth and clear any debris with a soft brush.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your shorts maintain their performance features, follow these care guidelines:

  1. Washing: Machine wash in cold water with similar colors to prevent fading.
  2. Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting or air dry to preserve the integrity of the fabric fibers.
  3. Avoid Bleach: Do not use bleach or harsh fabric softeners, as these can compromise the Dri-FIT and UV-blocking treatments.
  4. Sun Protection: Remember that the UV protection is built into the fabric; always apply high-quality sunscreen to your legs and other exposed skin areas for comprehensive safety.
