Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Montane Caelum Shorts, wash them in cool water with a mild detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners or bleach, as these can strip the water-repellent finish from the nylon fibers. Air drying is highly recommended to maintain the integrity of the stretch fabric. These shorts are compatible with all standard climbing and trekking harnesses due to their flat, low-profile waist construction. When layering, these shorts function best as a base or outer layer directly against the skin in moderate to warm temperatures.
