FAQs

Can I wear these for swimming?

While the fabric is water-resistant, these shorts are designed for hiking and outdoor activity rather than use as swimwear.

Are these shorts true to size?

Yes, they feature a regular fit with an adjustable waist, allowing for a standard, comfortable sizing profile.

How long is the inseam?

The inseam on this model is 24 cm.

What material are these made from?

The shorts are constructed from polyester with four-way stretch properties.

Can I use bleach on these shorts?

No, you should avoid bleach as it will damage the fabric and the DWR coating.

Troubleshooting

The DWR finish seems to be losing its effectiveness.

Wash the garment to remove dirt and oils, then tumble dry on low heat, which can help reactivate the water-repellent coating.

The shorts feel less water-resistant than when new.

Ensure you are not using fabric softeners during laundry cycles and consider applying a technical gear wash-in DWR treatment.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent freedom of movement due to stretch material
  • Water-resistant finish for light weather protection
  • Adjustable waist ensures a consistent fit
  • Versatile storage options for small hiking items

Cons

  • Not intended for heavy downpours
  • Requires specific low-heat care cycles
  • Fabric softeners can degrade the DWR coating

Setup, Compatibility & Care

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

  1. Wash: Machine wash in warm water at 40 degrees Celsius.
  2. Prep: Always close all zippers before putting the garment in the wash to avoid snagging.
  3. Avoid: Never use fabric softeners, as they leave a residue that can clog the pores of the fabric and strip the DWR water-repellent performance.
  4. Dry: Tumble dry on low heat to maintain the integrity of the synthetic fibers.
  5. Ironing: Use a low heat setting if ironing is required to smooth out wrinkles.
