FAQs
Are these shorts suitable for intense lap swimming?
While they are made of durable nylon, they are primarily designed for casual wear and recreational swimming rather than competitive lap swimming.
Does the waistband have a lot of stretch?
Yes, the elasticated waistband provides significant stretch to ensure a comfortable and secure fit across different waist sizes.
Can I wear these as regular casual shorts?
Many users wear these as casual streetwear due to the bold checker graphic and branding, provided the setting is appropriate for swim-style attire.
What is the best way to store them?
Store them dry and folded in a cool, dark place to preserve the fabric's integrity and color.
Is the back pocket waterproof?
The back pocket is designed for convenience, but it is not waterproof; ensure you remove all electronic devices before entering the water.
Troubleshooting
Drawcord has retracted into the waistband
Use a safety pin attached to the end of the cord to feed it back through the waistband opening.
Fabric feels stiff after drying
Rinse thoroughly to ensure all salt or chlorine has been removed, then air dry in a well-ventilated space.
Loose threads appearing near embroidery
Carefully trim loose threads with small scissors, but do not pull them, as this can unravel the embroidery stitching.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your ICECREAM Checker Running Dog Swim Shorts, follow these care guidelines:
- Rinse After Use: Always rinse the shorts in fresh, cold water after exposure to chlorine or saltwater to prevent fabric degradation.
- Machine Wash: Use a gentle cycle with cold water to protect the embroidered details and the checker graphic.
- Avoid Bleach: Do not use bleach or fabric softeners, as these can strip the colors and damage the technical properties of the nylon.
- Drying: Air dry the shorts in a shaded area away from direct sunlight to maintain the vibrancy of the print and the elasticity of the waistband.
- Fit Check: These are available in various sizes from XS to XXL. Because they utilize an elasticated waistband, they offer a forgiving fit; however, check the size chart to ensure the regular cut aligns with your preferred leg length.
