Full details
These Calvin Klein Board Shorts are designed for adults seeking comfortable and stylish swimwear for pool or beach activities.

FAQs
Are these shorts suitable for surfing?
Yes, the durable polyester and secure fit make them suitable for surfing and other water sports. However, for intense wave riding, a more specialized fit might be preferred by some.
Can I wear these as everyday casual shorts?
While they are comfortable and stylish, their primary design is for water activities. The quick-drying polyester is best suited for environments where they might get wet.
How do I know if I need a size up or down?
Refer to the Calvin Klein size chart available on the product page. It's generally recommended to check measurements for waist and hip, and consider reviews regarding fit.
What is the difference between these board shorts and swim trunks?
Board shorts typically have a slightly longer inseam and a more durable, 'board short' style waistband (often with a drawstring and velcro fly), whereas swim trunks can vary widely in length and material, often being lighter and more suited for casual swimming.
Does the embroidered logo wear off?
The embroidered logo is designed for durability. Following the care instructions, especially avoiding direct high heat ironing on the logo, will help preserve its appearance.
Are these shorts lined?
The product description does not specify an inner lining. Typically, board shorts of this style are unlined or may have a brief mesh lining for support, but this should be confirmed by checking detailed product specifications if available.
Troubleshooting
Fit is too loose or too tight.
Adjust the drawstring for a tighter fit. If too tight, ensure the drawstring is fully loosened. Consider checking the size guide for future purchases.
Material feels stiff after washing.
Ensure you are using a gentle cycle and cold water. Avoid harsh detergents. Tumble dry on low heat or air dry, which can help soften the fabric.
Color fades quickly.
Wash inside out in cold water with mild detergent. Avoid direct sunlight when drying; opt for shade or low heat tumble drying.
Pockets do not lie flat.
Ensure pockets are not overstuffed. Reshape them after washing and drying. Avoid prolonged storage with items in the pockets.
