FAQs

Are these shorts suitable for competitive swimming?

While comfortable for general swimming and training, these shorts are designed with a regular fit and side pockets, making them less ideal for competitive swimming where a more streamlined fit is preferred.

What is the inseam length of these shorts?

These are described as 'Short-Length' swim shorts, typically indicating a shorter inseam suitable for a more athletic cut. Specific measurements can vary by size but generally fall above the knee.

Can I machine dry these shorts?

No, tumble drying is not recommended as it can damage the fabric and cause colors to fade. It's best to hang dry them in a shaded area.

How do I know if I need to use the drawcord?

The drawcord is adjustable to ensure a snug fit. If the elastic waistband feels loose or you prefer a more secure fit, tighten the drawcord as needed.

What does 'CLX' stand for?

CLX often refers to 'ClimaCool' or similar adidas technologies related to heat and moisture management, although specific product lines may have unique interpretations.

Is the inner brief removable?

The mesh inner brief is typically sewn in for support and is not designed to be removed.

How do I clean sand or debris from the pockets?

Turn the pockets inside out and shake vigorously. A gentle rinse under running water can also help dislodge stubborn particles before washing.

Troubleshooting

Drawcord is difficult to adjust

Ensure the drawcord is not twisted. If it feels stuck, gently work it back and forth. If it's frayed, consider replacing it.

Pockets feel bulky when wet

The pockets are designed for minimal use when wet. Avoid overfilling them. Ensure all excess water is shaken out after swimming.

Fabric feels stiff after washing

Ensure you are using a mild detergent and not using fabric softener, which can affect the fabric's properties. Hang drying should restore flexibility.
