FAQs
What material are these shorts made from?
They are made from 100% Recycled Nylon, which is lightweight and quick-drying.
How do I determine the correct size?
Refer to the provided sizing guide, which lists waist measurements in inches for each size (XS to XXL: 22" to 32"). The blue size M corresponds to a 26" waist.
Are these suitable for competitive swimming?
These watershorts are designed for recreational swimming and general water activities. They are not specifically engineered for the performance demands of competitive racing.
Can the drawcord be removed?
The drawcord is integrated for adjustability and is not designed to be removed. Ensure it is tied securely to prevent it from slipping back into the waistband.
How should I wash these shorts?
Machine wash cold with similar colors. Do not bleach. Tumble dry on low or air dry. Rinse with fresh water after each use.
Do these shorts have a liner?
Yes, they feature an inner mesh brief for added support and comfort.
Are the pockets secure?
The side pockets are open and have a mesh drainage system. They are not designed for securely storing items as they do not have zippers or closures.
Troubleshooting
Drawcord is difficult to adjust
Ensure the drawcord is not twisted. If it feels stiff, it may loosen with use. Avoid excessive force when adjusting.
Shorts feel too loose
Tighten the external drawcord to achieve a secure fit. Ensure you have selected the correct size based on the waist measurement chart.
Fabric feels stiff after washing
This is usually temporary. Ensure you are using a mild detergent and have rinsed thoroughly. Avoid fabric softeners, which can affect the quick-drying properties.
Pockets retain water
The mesh drainage system should allow water to escape. Ensure the mesh openings are not blocked by debris. A thorough rinse should clear any blockages.
