FAQs
Are these swim shorts suitable for competitive swimming?
These shorts are designed for general swimming and beach activities. For competitive swimming, specialized racing suits are typically recommended for optimal hydrodynamics.
What does 'water-repellent PFC-free finish' mean?
It means the shorts have been treated with a finish that helps water bead off the surface, keeping them lighter and drying faster. 'PFC-free' signifies that the treatment avoids per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances, which are considered more environmentally friendly.
How do I know if I've chosen the right size?
Refer to the adidas sizing chart for men's or unisex apparel. The elastic waistband with a drawcord also allows for some adjustment.
Can I wear these shorts for running or other land sports?
While they are comfortable for casual wear, they are primarily designed for water activities. The built-in brief offers some support, but they may not be ideal for high-impact land sports.
What is the material of the swim shorts?
The shorts are made from 100% recycled polyester fabric.
How should I care for the PFC-free finish?
To best preserve the water-repellent finish, avoid fabric softeners, harsh detergents, and high heat when washing and drying. Gentle care will help maintain the fabric's properties.
Troubleshooting
Shorts feel heavy or waterlogged after swimming
Ensure the fabric is fully rinsed to remove any pool chemicals or salt water, which can affect drying time. Check that no pockets are holding excess water.
Waistband feels too loose or too tight
Adjust the fit using the internal drawcord. Tie securely to prevent slipping during activity.
Color fading
Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight and harsh detergents. Wash in cold water and dry on low heat or air dry.

Care Instructions:
