Troubleshooting

Drawcord has come out of the waistband

Carefully re-thread the drawcord through the waistband casing using a safety pin or a specialised tool. Ensure it is centered before tying.

Zippers are stiff or difficult to close

Apply a small amount of graphite pencil lead or a silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth. Gently work the zipper up and down to loosen it.

Shorts feel less breathable than expected

Ensure the mesh panels are not obstructed. Wash according to care instructions to remove any residue that might be blocking airflow.
