FAQs
What is the inseam length of these shorts?

Are these shorts suitable for competitive swimming?

Can I wear these shorts for activities other than swimming?
Yes, their comfort, stretch, and quick-drying properties make them suitable for various summer activities like hiking, beach volleyball, or casual outings.
How do I choose the right size?
Refer to the brand's sizing chart, paying attention to waist measurements. The adjustable drawcord provides some flexibility.

The outer fabric and lining are both made from 100% recycled polyester.

Troubleshooting
Waistband feels too loose or too tight.
Adjust the internal drawcord to achieve the desired fit. Ensure the knot is secure.
Fabric feels stiff after washing.
Ensure you are using a gentle cycle and mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners, which can degrade synthetic materials over time. Tumble dry on low heat can help restore softness.
Pockets not draining water effectively.
Ensure pocket openings are clear and that any items stored are not obstructing drainage. The mesh lining should facilitate drainage.
