Troubleshooting
Shorts feel stiff initially
Denim often requires a break-in period. Wear them for extended periods during daily activities, or wash them once or twice following the care instructions to soften the fabric.
Color fading after washing
Wash the shorts inside out in cold water with like colors to minimize color loss. Avoid using bleach and opt for air drying when possible.
Pockets feel tight for larger items
While designed for utility, the primary pockets are sized for everyday essentials. For larger items, consider the dedicated carpenter or utility pockets if applicable to the specific design, or use a bag.
