FAQs

What material are these shorts made from?

These Stradivarius D75 Ripped Denim Shorts are made from comfortable and durable cotton.

How should I wash these shorts to best preserve them?

We recommend machine washing them cold, inside out, with similar colors. Use a mild detergent and do not use bleach. Air drying is preferred, or tumble dry on a low setting.

Will the frayed hems unravel completely?

The frayed hems are designed to have a distressed look. While some loose threads are natural, they should not completely unravel. You can trim any excessively long threads as needed.

Are these shorts true to size?

These shorts are designed for a UK women's dress size 8. For best fit, please refer to Stradivarius's official size guide, as sizing can vary between brands.

Can I wear these shorts for a more dressed-up occasion?

These shorts are primarily designed for casual wear due to their ripped and frayed details. While you can style them with dressier tops, they might not be suitable for formal or semi-formal events.

How should I store these shorts when not in use?

Store your shorts by folding them neatly or hanging them to maintain their shape and prevent excessive wrinkling. Keep them in a dry place away from direct sunlight.

Troubleshooting

Frayed hems seem to be unraveling excessively.

It is normal for frayed hems to have some loose threads. Gently trim any long, stray threads with sharp fabric scissors. Avoid pulling them to prevent further unraveling.

Denim color appears to be fading after washing.

Always wash your denim shorts inside out with cold water and a mild detergent. This method helps to lock in the color and reduce fading. Air drying can also help preserve color better than machine drying.

Shorts feel stiff or less comfortable after washing.

This can happen with cotton denim. Consider adding a fabric softener to your wash cycle. Additionally, air drying rather than high-heat machine drying can help maintain the fabric's natural softness.

Shorts are wrinkling easily.

Cotton denim can wrinkle. To minimize wrinkles, remove shorts promptly from the dryer (if machine drying) or hang them immediately after washing. Iron on a low-medium setting if necessary, ironing inside out.

Care Instructions

Proper care will help maintain the quality and appearance of your shorts:

  1. Washing: Machine wash cold, inside out, with similar colors. This helps preserve the denim color and protects the frayed hems.
  2. Detergent: Use a mild detergent.
  3. Bleach: Do not bleach, as this can damage the fabric and alter the color.
  4. Drying: Tumble dry low or, preferably, hang dry to minimize shrinkage and maintain the shape and frayed details. Air drying also helps reduce wear on the frayed hems.
  5. Ironing: If needed, iron on a low-medium setting inside out. Avoid ironing directly on the frayed areas to prevent flattening them.
  6. Frayed Hems: Over time, the frayed hems might develop loose threads. Gently trim any excessively long or unruly threads with fabric scissors; avoid pulling them.
