Product Information
Full details
The Helly Hansen Cascais Trunk 4.5" is a versatile, lightweight swimwear option designed for active adults who enjoy sailing, swimming, and various water sports. With its quick-drying fabric and integrated brief liner, it offers exceptional comfort and freedom of movement for all-day wear. While it is perfect for both performance on the water and casual relaxation on the beach, users should note the shorter 11.5 cm inseam, which provides a modern, athletic fit that may not suit those preferring longer board shorts.

Extended Product Information
FAQs
What does the 4.5" refer to?
This refers to the inseam length of the shorts, which is approximately 11.5 cm, providing a shorter, athletic cut.
Can these be worn as everyday shorts?
Yes, thanks to the casual design and functional hand pockets, they are suitable for beachside wear and casual summer outings.
Is the fabric chlorine resistant?
While the fabric is designed for water sports, prolonged exposure to harsh pool chemicals may eventually affect the material; always rinse with fresh water after swimming.
How do I determine my size?
These trunks use standard sizing (M, L, XL, etc.) with a regular fit. If you prefer a looser fit, you may consider sizing up.
What does bluesign® certified mean?
It means the textile was produced in a way that is safe for the environment, workers, and consumers by eliminating harmful substances from the start of the manufacturing process.
Troubleshooting
Drawstring feels loose or slips
Ensure you are tying a firm double knot or check that the drawstring channels are free from sand or debris.
Fabric feels stiff after washing
Ensure you are using a gentle cycle and avoid high-heat drying, which can make the synthetic fibers brittle.
Sand trapped inside the liner
Rinse thoroughly with fresh water after each use in the ocean and shake out the garment while wet to dislodge particles.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These trunks feature a standard regular fit and a traditional elastic waist. To ensure longevity, follow the manufacturer's care guidelines: machine wash in warm water at 40° C on a gentle cycle. Avoid bleach, as it can damage the specialized synthetic fabric and dyes. When drying, use a low heat setting in the tumble dryer. Do not iron the garment, as high heat can degrade the elastic and the technical fabric properties. Professional dry cleaning is not recommended.
