FAQs

Are these swim shorts suitable for competitive swimming?

These shorts are designed for general recreational use and comfort. For competitive swimming, specialized racing suits may offer better hydrodynamics.

What does '100% recycled materials' mean?

It means the fabric used to make these shorts is derived from post-consumer or post-industrial waste, such as plastic bottles, which are reprocessed into new materials. This helps reduce waste and reliance on virgin resources.

How do I choose the correct size?

Refer to the size chart provided by adidas, typically based on age and/or specific measurements for children's apparel. The size '9-10' refers to UK sizing for children.

Can these be worn for sports other than swimming?

Yes, their lightweight and quick-drying nature makes them suitable for other summer activities like beach volleyball or general play.

What is the benefit of the inner mesh briefs?

The inner mesh briefs provide added support, coverage, and can help reduce chafing during water activities.

How durable is the fabric?

The polyester fabric is generally durable and resistant to chlorine and saltwater, but proper care as per the instructions will maximize its lifespan.

Troubleshooting

Swim shorts feel tight or restrictive

Ensure the elastic waistband is fully extended and the inner drawcord is loosened. If the issue persists, consider a larger size.

Fabric is taking a long time to dry

Ensure the shorts are thoroughly wrung out after rinsing. Hang them in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat. Avoid using a tumble dryer.

Drawcord has come undone

Use a safety pin or a similar tool to carefully thread the drawcord back through the waistband casing.
