Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Helly Hansen Newport Board Shorts maintain their performance qualities, follow these care steps:
- Rinse after use: Always rinse the shorts with fresh, cool water after exposure to chlorine or salt water to prevent material degradation.
- Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle with mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners as they can clog the moisture-wicking fibers.
- Drying: Air dry whenever possible by hanging the shorts in a shaded, well-ventilated area. Avoid direct sunlight for extended periods to prevent color fading.
- Storage: Ensure the shorts are completely dry before storing to prevent mildew or odors.
