FAQs
What is NosiLife fabric?

No, these shorts are not waterproof. They are designed for breathability and quick drying in warm conditions.

Can the integrated belt be removed?
The integrated belt is typically attached and not designed for removal, but it is adjustable.
What activities are these shorts best suited for?

How should I care for these shorts to maintain their features?
Machine wash at 40°C with similar colors, do not bleach, tumble dry on low or line dry, and cool iron. Avoid fabric softener.
Troubleshooting
Insect repellent property seems reduced after multiple washes
The NosiLife treatment is designed to last for the lifetime of the garment, but excessive harsh washing or drying may affect it. Follow care instructions carefully to maintain effectiveness.
Shorts feel slightly restrictive
Ensure the part-elasticated waist is adjusted correctly. If a looser fit is desired, consider trying a size up, though this may affect other dimensions.
Fabric is not drying as quickly as expected
Ensure the shorts are not over-wrung after washing. Line drying in a well-ventilated area or using a low heat tumble dry setting will facilitate quicker drying.
