What material are the shorts made of?
The main fabric is 90% polyester and 10% elastane. The lining is 100% polyester.
How should I wash these swim shorts?
They can be machine washed at 30°C on a delicate cycle. Avoid bleach and high heat drying.
Does the embroidered pony logo require special care?
While durable, it's advisable to avoid direct high heat from ironing on the logo area to maintain its appearance.
Are these shorts suitable for saltwater?
Yes, they are suitable for pool swimming and general water activities. It is recommended to rinse them with fresh water after exposure to saltwater or chlorine to maintain fabric integrity.
Troubleshooting
Drawstring is difficult to adjust
Ensure the drawstring is not tangled. If it feels stiff, try gently stretching it or applying a small amount of silicone lubricant to the eyelets.
Pockets feel loose
Check if the button on the back pocket is securely fastened. For the side pockets, ensure items are not overstuffed, which can cause them to gap.
Mesh lining feels uncomfortable
Ensure the shorts are properly rinsed after swimming to remove salt or chlorine, which can stiffen the mesh. Try washing them according to care instructions to soften the lining.
Color fading after washing
Always wash in cold water on a delicate cycle and use a mild detergent. Avoid direct sunlight when drying, as UV rays can accelerate fading.
