FAQs
What does the 16-inch outseam mean?
The outseam measurement refers to the length of the shorts from the top of the waistband to the bottom hem, meaning these sit well above the knee.
Are these shorts suitable for casual wear?
Yes, the classic straight-leg design and solid colors make them suitable for both beach activities and casual summer wear.
How should I choose the right size?
These shorts feature a regular fit and a fixed waist. We recommend choosing your standard trouser waist size for the best fit.
What is PFC-free treatment?
It is an environmentally friendly water-repellent coating that is free from harmful perfluorinated chemicals while still providing excellent quick-dry performance.
Can I tumble dry these shorts?
We recommend air drying to extend the life of the fabric and the effectiveness of the water-repellent treatment.
Troubleshooting
Drawcord is difficult to tighten
Ensure no sand is trapped inside the eyelets or within the drawstring channel; rinse thoroughly with fresh water to dislodge debris.
Shorts feel less water-repellent over time
Thoroughly clean the garment to remove soap or sunscreen residue, which can mask the hydrophobic coating, and allow it to fully air dry.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because these shorts utilize a fixed waist, it is important to ensure you have selected the correct UK waist size (e.g., 32-inch) to ensure a secure but comfortable fit. For longevity, always rinse the shorts in fresh water after every use in salt or chlorinated water to remove mineral deposits that can degrade the fabric. Machine wash on a gentle cycle with like colors, and avoid using heavy fabric softeners, as these can interfere with the hydrophobic treatment. Always air dry in the shade to protect the integrity of the synthetic fibers.
