FAQs
What makes ECONYL® yarn special?
ECONYL® yarn is made from regenerated nylon derived from waste, such as discarded fishing nets and carpets, which is then recycled to create new nylon fiber. This process reduces the environmental impact compared to virgin nylon.
How do I know my size?
Refer to the size chart provided by Stone Island. These shorts feature an elasticated drawstring waistband which allows for some adjustability.
Can I wear these for activities other than swimming?
Yes, the durable Nylon Metal fabric and comfortable fit make them suitable for casual wear, beach activities, or as stylish resort wear.
How should I care for the garment-dyed finish?
Wash cold with similar colors, inside out. Avoid bleach and tumble drying. It's advisable to wash separately for the first few times to prevent color transfer.
Are the pockets secure?
The shorts feature hand pockets and one back zip pocket, which is ideal for securely storing small items like keys or cards.
What is Nylon Metal fabric?
Nylon Metal is a distinctive fabric known for its iridescent, metallic appearance, achieved through a complex manufacturing process involving nylon monofilaments treated with resins and then metalized.
Troubleshooting
Color fading or bleeding
Follow garment care instructions strictly. Wash cold, inside out, and separately for the first few washes. Avoid harsh detergents.
Drawstring is difficult to adjust
Ensure the drawstring is not tangled. Gently pull both ends to adjust the waistband. If frayed, consider a gentle repair.
Mesh lining feels uncomfortable
Ensure the shorts are the correct size. Sometimes a slightly larger size can provide more comfort. Rinse thoroughly after swimming to remove salt or chlorine residue.
