FAQs

What material are these swim shorts made of?

These Burberry swim shorts are made from 100% Nylon, designed to be lightweight and quick-drying, and feature a comfortable mesh lining.

Are these shorts suitable for swimming in chlorinated pools?

Yes, they are suitable for use in chlorinated pools. However, it is highly recommended to rinse them thoroughly with fresh, cool water immediately after use to prolong their lifespan and preserve the fabric and color.

How should I wash and dry these swim shorts?

Hand washing with a mild detergent in cold water is recommended. If machine washing, use a gentle cycle with cold water and a laundry bag. Do not tumble dry; air dry them flat or hang in the shade, away from direct sunlight.

Do these swim shorts have pockets?

Yes, these swim shorts are equipped with convenient side pockets for carrying small essentials.

Is the waist adjustable?

Yes, the shorts feature an elasticated waist with a drawstring, allowing for a secure and adjustable fit.

Will the oversized check pattern fade over time?

With proper care—rinsing after use, washing correctly, and avoiding excessive sun exposure during drying—the oversized check pattern should retain its vibrancy. Harsh chemicals or prolonged direct sunlight can contribute to fading over time.

Troubleshooting

Fabric feels stiff after washing

Ensure you are using a mild detergent and rinsing thoroughly. Air dry completely and avoid excessive heat exposure during drying, as this can make nylon stiff. A gentle reshape while damp can also help.

Drawstring becoming tangled or difficult to adjust

Before washing, tie the drawstring in a simple bow or knot to prevent it from tangling or pulling out. If it comes out, use a safety pin attached to one end of the string to thread it back through the waistband casing.

Mesh lining feels uncomfortable or itchy

Ensure the shorts are the correct size; a lining that is too tight can cause discomfort. Wash the shorts according to care instructions, as residual chemicals from manufacturing or detergents can sometimes cause irritation. A fabric rinse designed for synthetics might help soften it.

Color appears to be fading

Minimize exposure to direct sunlight for extended periods, both when wearing and drying. Always rinse chlorine or saltwater off immediately after swimming. Use a color-safe, mild detergent and wash with like colors in cold water.

Care Instructions:

Proper care will help maintain the quality, color, and integrity of your Burberry swim shorts.

  1. Rinse After Use: Always rinse your shorts thoroughly with cool, clean water immediately after use, especially if worn in chlorinated pools or saltwater. This helps remove chlorine, salt, and sand that can degrade the fabric.
  2. Washing: Hand washing is recommended for longevity. Use a mild detergent in cold water. If machine washing, use a delicate cycle with cold water and place the shorts in a mesh laundry bag to protect them.
  3. Drying: Do not tumble dry. The high heat can damage the nylon fabric and mesh lining. Instead, gently squeeze out excess water (do not wring) and lay flat or hang to air dry in the shade. Avoid direct sunlight, which can cause color fading.
  4. Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not use bleach, strong stain removers, or fabric softeners, as these can harm the fabric's quick-drying properties and color.
  5. Storage: Ensure the shorts are completely dry before storing them to prevent mildew and odors.
