FAQs
What kind of outdoor activities are these shorts best suited for?
These shorts are ideal for a variety of outdoor activities such as hiking, walking, travelling, and casual day trips, especially in warm or sunny weather due to their UV protection and quick-drying properties.
How does the UV protection work?
The fabric is woven or treated to block a significant portion of the sun's ultraviolet (UV) radiation, helping to protect your skin from sunburn and long-term damage.
Are the pockets deep enough for a smartphone?
The zipped pockets are designed for secure storage. While depth can vary, they are generally suitable for most standard-sized smartphones, keys, and wallets.
Can I wear these for water sports?
While the shorts are quick-drying, they are not specifically designed as swimwear. They are suitable for activities where you might get splashed or caught in rain, but not for prolonged submersion.
What is the warranty period for these shorts?
The Mountain Warehouse Explorer Long Shorts come with a 2-year warranty, providing peace of mind regarding their quality and durability.
How should I wash these shorts to preserve their features?
Machine wash at a low temperature (around 30°C) with similar colours and tumble dry on a low heat setting or air dry. Avoid bleach and high heat ironing.
Does the elastic waistband offer adjustable tightness?
The waistband is elastic for comfort and fit, but it is not typically adjustable with a drawstring or internal mechanism unless specified otherwise in the product details.
Troubleshooting
Shorts feel too tight or too loose
Adjust the elastic waistband. If the fit is still significantly off, consider if you have ordered the correct size or if a different size in the range would be more appropriate.
Zippers are stiff or stuck
Gently try to move the zipper back and forth. Apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a silicone-based lubricant to the teeth. Avoid forcing the zipper.
Fabric retains water after washing
Ensure the shorts are not overloaded in the washing machine and are rinsed thoroughly. Check care label for specific washing temperature and spin speed recommendations. Air drying in a well-ventilated area may also help.
