Getting started with your Craghoppers Active Stretch Performance Shorts is as simple as putting them on. To maximize their lifespan and performance, follow these guidelines.
Simply select your size and wear them! No special setup is required for these performance shorts.
These shorts pair well with a range of outdoor gear and apparel:
Footwear: Combine with hiking boots, trail shoes, or comfortable sandals for different activity levels.
Tops: Wear with moisture-wicking t-shirts or technical tops for optimal comfort during active pursuits.
Layering: On cooler days or for changing conditions, pair with a lightweight, packable jacket or fleece.
Accessories: Compatible with standard outdoor accessories like backpacks, hydration packs, and sun hats.
Proper care will maintain the shorts' performance and appearance:
Washing: Machine wash cold (30°C or 86°F) with similar colors.
Detergent: Use a mild liquid detergent. Avoid harsh detergents, bleach, and fabric softeners, as these can damage the fabric and the splashproof finish.
Drying: Tumble dry on a low setting or, ideally, hang to air dry. Air drying helps preserve the fabric and its performance features.
Ironing: Do not iron, as high heat can damage the polyester fabric and compromise the splashproof treatment.
Dry Cleaning: Do not dry clean.
Pre-Wash: Before washing, close all zippers to prevent snagging or damage to the garment.
Restoring Splashproof: Over time, the splashproof (DWR) finish may wear off. You can restore it using a DWR-specific spray or wash-in product designed for outdoor technical apparel, following the product's instructions.
