Troubleshooting
Drawstring has retracted into the waistband

Fabric feels stiff after washing
Ensure you are not using excess detergent and skip the fabric softener, which can cause residue buildup.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your adidas 5-inch swim shorts last through multiple seasons, rinse them with fresh, cold water immediately after swimming in salt or chlorinated water. This helps prevent fabric degradation and color fading. Wash in a machine on a gentle cycle and always air dry in the shade to maintain the elasticity of the waistband. Avoid using fabric softeners, as these can strip the quick-drying finish from the polyester fibers. Ensure you have selected your correct size based on the regular fit guidelines, as the internal drawstring allows for minor adjustments if the waist is slightly loose.
