Troubleshooting

Shorts appear wrinkled after washing.

Iron on a low setting while the garment is slightly damp, or use a steam iron. Ensure proper drying methods are used to minimize excessive wrinkling.

Tie waist is difficult to secure.

Ensure the tie is threaded through the waistband channels correctly. Practice tying a secure knot or bow that remains in place.

Fabric feels stiff after drying.
