What is the best way to care for these shorts to ensure longevity?
Machine wash cold with like colors, do not bleach, and tumble dry on low heat or hang dry. Iron on a low setting if needed.
Do the pockets offer secure storage?
The shorts feature two side slip pockets, which are suitable for very light items like keys or a small card. They are not designed for secure storage of valuable items during vigorous activity.
Troubleshooting
Pilling or fabric wear after washing
Ensure you are washing with like colors and avoiding harsh detergents. Consider air drying or tumble drying on a low setting.
Drawcord becomes untied or difficult to adjust
Tie a secure knot to prevent it from pulling through the waistband. If it's frayed, consider replacing it.
Fit is too loose or too tight
Adjust the drawcord for a tighter fit. If the waist is consistently too loose, consider if a smaller size would be more appropriate. If it's too tight, ensure you are using the drawcord to its full extent.
