FAQs
Are these shorts suitable for swimming?
While made of polyester, they are designed as casual sportswear and lack an integrated mesh liner, so they are not recommended for swimming.
Does the polyester fabric shrink?
Polyester is generally resistant to shrinking; however, it is best to avoid high heat in the dryer to maintain the integrity of the elastic.
How do I determine my size?
These shorts follow a standard regular fit. If you prefer a looser feel, consider sizing up based on your typical preference for sportswear.
Can I use these for running?
They are suitable for casual, light activity. For high-intensity, long-distance running, you may prefer a garment with more technical moisture-wicking properties.
Are the pockets deep enough for a large smartphone?
The side pockets are standard size and suitable for most everyday items, though very large smartphones may protrude slightly.
Troubleshooting
Drawcord gets stuck inside the waistband
Use a small safety pin to feed the end of the drawcord back through the opening of the waistband.
Pilling on fabric surface
Avoid washing with rougher fabrics like denim or items with Velcro. Use a fabric shaver to gently remove surface pilling.
Waistband feels too loose after washing
Ensure the internal drawcord is tied securely and check that the elastic has not been over-stretched by high-heat tumble drying.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your shorts maintain their shape and color, follow these maintenance tips:
- Washing: Machine wash in cold water with similar colors. Avoid using harsh bleach which can damage the synthetic fibers.
- Drying: Tumble dry on a low setting or hang to air dry to prevent heat-related degradation of the elastic.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Using a hanger helps prevent deep creases in the polyester fabric.
- Compatibility: These shorts feature a neutral design that pairs perfectly with standard t-shirts, hoodies, and athletic sneakers, making them highly compatible with most casual wardrobes.
