FAQs
What does '13 Inch' refer to on these shorts?
'13 Inch' refers to the inseam length of the shorts, measuring from the crotch seam to the hem.
What is the 'Rinse' color description?
The 'Rinse' color typically indicates a dark indigo blue denim that has undergone minimal washing after dyeing, resulting in a deep, raw-like appearance.
Are these shorts suitable for hot weather?
While denim is a durable fabric, it can be warm. The loose fit does provide some airflow, making them more comfortable than tighter-fitting denim in warmer conditions. However, lighter fabrics may be preferable for extreme heat.
How do I know if the 'Loose Fit' is right for me?
If you prioritize comfort, freedom of movement, and a relaxed style over a tailored look, the loose fit is likely suitable. If you prefer a closer-to-the-body fit, you might consider other Dickies models.
Can I wear these shorts for formal occasions?
These shorts are designed as workwear and casual wear. They are not suitable for formal occasions.
How durable is the denim used in these shorts?
Dickies is known for its durable workwear. The denim used in the 958 model is robust and designed to withstand regular use and demanding conditions.
Troubleshooting
Shorts feel stiff or rigid
This is common with new denim. Wash the shorts once or twice separately in cold water before regular wear to soften the fabric. Avoid using fabric softener, as it can degrade denim fibers.
Color bleeding onto other garments
Wash the shorts in cold water with like colors for the first few washes. Avoid washing with light-colored items until several washes have occurred, or until color transfer is no longer an issue.
Seams feel uncomfortable
Ensure you have the correct size. If the seams are still an issue, try wearing them for short periods to allow the fabric to adapt to your movements.
