Full details

Engineered with performance-focused polyester and O Protect DWR technology, these shorts offer excellent moisture management and quick-drying capabilities. While highly functional for travel and outdoor sports, users should note that the 21-inch inseam offers a longer, more traditional fit compared to shorter, high-performance athletic board shorts.

FAQs
Are these shorts suitable for swimming?
Yes, they are designed as hybrid shorts, meaning they feature quick-drying, water-repellent fabric suitable for water sports.
Does the fabric have any stretch?
The shorts are made from lightweight polyester, which offers a standard fit without the high-stretch recovery found in performance compression gear.
How should I store my sunglasses using the loop?
The fixed loop is located near the pocket area; simply slide one arm of your eyewear through the loop so the frame sits securely against the waistband.
Can I put these in the dryer?
Yes, tumble dry on a low heat setting. Avoid high heat as it can damage the synthetic fibers and the DWR treatment.
Is the waist adjustable?
The model features a fixed waist design with a zipper and button closure rather than a full elastic drawstring waistband.
Troubleshooting
Water-repellency seems to be fading
Over time, DWR coatings can wear off. Washing without heavy detergents and occasional low-heat tumble drying can sometimes help reactivate the finish.
Zipper is sticking or stiff
Rinse the zipper mechanism thoroughly with fresh water to remove salt or sand residue, then ensure it is completely dry.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Durable, quick-drying polyester material
- Water-repellent DWR finish excels in aquatic environments
- Dedicated loop for secure eyewear storage
- Versatile design suitable for both water and land use
Cons
- 21-inch length may feel too long for those preferring modern short cuts
- Limited stretch compared to specialized technical surf trunks
- Fixed waist design lacks the adjustable flexibility of drawstring-only options
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of the DWR coating and the structural integrity of the fabric, machine wash these shorts in cold water with like colors. Avoid using fabric softeners, as these can clog the technical fibers and degrade the water-repellent properties of the O Protect treatment. Tumble dry on low heat or hang to air dry away from direct sunlight to maintain color vibrancy. These shorts are compatible with standard sizing conventions; however, please consult the size guide to ensure the 30-inch waist offers your desired fit, as the hybrid material does not provide significant elastic tension.
