Troubleshooting
Shorts do not fit correctly.
Refer to the Vivienne Westwood size guide and compare with your measurements. If between sizes, consider the next size up for a more relaxed fit or consult with a tailor for alterations.
Color fading after washing.
Ensure washing in cold water and using a mild detergent. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight when drying. Wash inside out.
Buttons appear dull or scratched.
Gently clean the buttons with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using any cleaning solutions directly on the embossed 'Line Orb' motif. If significant scratching occurs, professional repair or replacement may be considered.
Fabric feels stiff after drying.
Ensure the shorts are fully air-dried or tumble-dried on a low setting. A light iron on the reverse side can help soften the fabric. Avoid over-drying.
