FAQs
What does 'garment-dyed' mean?
Garment-dyeing is a process where the fabric is dyed after it has been cut and sewn into the final garment. This results in a softer feel and a unique, slightly faded or washed appearance, making each piece distinct.
How do I find my correct size?
The size '36' refers to the UK men's waist size. It's recommended to measure your waist or compare with a well-fitting pair of shorts you already own.
Can these shorts be worn for sports?
While they offer comfort for casual activities, they are designed primarily for casual wear and not for high-intensity athletic performance. The 100% cotton material may not offer the moisture-wicking properties of performance fabrics.
What material are the Dalesman Shorts made of?
They are made from 100% Cotton twill.
How should I care for the 'Aloe' color?
Wash cold with like colors, turn inside out, and avoid high heat when drying. This helps preserve the color and the unique garment-dyed effect.
Do these shorts have belt loops?
No, these shorts feature an elasticated waist with an adjustable tie and a button waist with zip fly, but they do not have traditional belt loops.
Troubleshooting
Color fading unevenly
This is a characteristic of the garment-dyeing process, intended to give a unique, lived-in look. If you prefer more uniform color, consider washing with similar dark colors and avoiding prolonged direct sunlight when drying.
Elastic waist feels too loose
Tighten the adjustable tie at the waist to secure a more snug fit. Ensure the tie is tied firmly.
Shrinking after washing
Avoid high heat in the washing machine and dryer. Always follow the cold wash and low/hang dry instructions. Minor shrinkage might occur with excessive heat.
