FAQs

What is the primary material of these shorts?

The shorts are made from a blend of 55% cotton, 36% recycled polyester, and 9% viscose.

Are these shorts suitable for intense running?

While comfortable for light activity, the cotton blend may not offer the best moisture-wicking or breathability for intense, high-sweat activities compared to specialized athletic wear.

How do I ensure the best fit?

The shorts feature an elastic waist with a drawcord. Adjust the drawcord to tighten or loosen the waistband for a secure and personalized fit.

What does 'minimum of 70% recycled and renewable content' mean?

This indicates that at least 70% of the materials used in the shorts (like the recycled polyester) come from recycled sources or sustainable, renewable resources, contributing to a reduced environmental impact.

Can I wear these shorts in cooler weather?

Yes, the French terry fabric provides some warmth, making them suitable for cooler days or as loungewear. However, they are not insulated for very cold conditions.

How should I wash these shorts?

Machine wash them cold with similar colors, tumble dry on low, or hang them to dry. Avoid bleach and do not dry clean. It's recommended to wash with fasteners closed.

Troubleshooting

Drawcord is difficult to adjust

Ensure the drawcord is not tangled and is threaded evenly through the waistband. If it feels stiff, gently work it back and forth.

Fabric feels rough after washing

Check if fabric softener was used excessively or if harsh detergents were employed. Wash with a mild detergent and consider a fabric softener on a subsequent wash if needed, following care label instructions.

Pockets feel shallow

The depth of the pockets is a design feature. For carrying larger items, consider a bag or backpack.
