FAQs

Are these shorts suitable for intense lap swimming?

While they are comfortable for general swimming, their regular fit is more optimized for leisure than competitive lap swimming, where tighter compression gear might be preferred.

Can these be worn as casual shorts?

Yes, thanks to their quick-drying material and integrated side pockets, they are designed to function well as casual summer shorts for beach or pool-side activities.

How should I choose the right size?

These shorts follow standard sizing. Refer to the size guide to match your waist measurement, noting that the elastic waistband offers some flexibility in fit.

Does the mesh lining cause chafing?

The inner mesh briefs are designed for comfort and support; however, if you have sensitive skin, ensure the shorts fit properly to minimize friction.

How long is the inseam?

The inseam is 5 inches, which is designed to sit mid-thigh on most individuals.

Troubleshooting

Drawcord becomes stuck or pulled into the waistband

Gently massage the fabric to work the cord toward the opening, or use a safety pin attached to the end of the cord to guide it back through.

Fabric holds onto sand after beach use

Allow the shorts to dry completely in the shade, then shake them out firmly. Rinse with fresh water to remove fine grains from the mesh liner.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

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

  1. Rinsing: Always rinse the shorts with fresh, cool water immediately after use in chlorinated pools or saltwater to remove residues.
  2. Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle with like colors using mild detergent.
  3. Drying: Air dry in a shaded area away from direct sunlight to prevent fabric degradation and color fading.
  4. Fit Adjustment: Before entering the water, tighten the internal drawcord to ensure the shorts remain secure during dives or active swimming.
