Setup, Compatibility & Care
These shorts require no specific setup; simply choose the size that matches your standard fit. Because different versions of the Coast shorts use different materials (such as cotton versus performance synthetics), always check the garment label before washing. Generally, the shorts are machine washable. To maintain the elasticity and UV protection properties, avoid using harsh fabric softeners or high-heat drying, which can break down the technical fibers over time. Hanging them to air dry is recommended to preserve the shape of the high-rise waistband.
