FAQs

What is the primary purpose of these shorts?

The Mountain Warehouse Explorer Womens Long Shorts are designed for outdoor activities and everyday wear, offering comfort, quick-drying properties, and UV protection.

How do I determine the correct size?

It is recommended to consult the size chart provided by Mountain Warehouse and measure your waist and hips. Sizing can vary, so checking measurements is key.

Are these shorts suitable for swimming?

While they are quick-drying, they are not designed as swimwear. They are suitable for water-related activities where quick drying is a benefit, but not for prolonged immersion.

Can I wear these in colder weather?

These shorts are lightweight and designed for warmer conditions. For colder weather, layering with thermal base layers or opting for trousers would be more appropriate.

How effective is the UV protection?

The fabric offers UV protection, which helps to shield your skin from the sun's harmful rays. Specific UPF ratings are not detailed but it adds a beneficial layer of sun safety for outdoor use.

What should I do if the shorts are not as expected?

Please refer to the retailer's return policy for any issues related to fit, quality, or if the product does not meet expectations.

Troubleshooting

Shorts feel tight or loose in the waist

The elasticated waistband is designed to offer flexibility. If still uncomfortable, consider ordering a different size. For minor looseness, a belt can be used.

Zippers are stiff

Gently work the zipper up and down. A small amount of graphite from a pencil or a tiny bit of wax can help lubricate it. Avoid forcing the zipper.

Fabric has lost its quick-drying property

Ensure no fabric softener was used during washing, as this can affect fabric performance. Follow the care instructions carefully.
