Full details
The Mountain Warehouse Coast Shorts are designed for adult women seeking comfortable and durable shorts for casual wear and outdoor activities. Their key benefit is the 4-Way-Stretch fabric providing flexibility and freedom of movement, combined with UPF 50+ sun protection. A potential consideration is that the material composition is primarily cotton, which may take longer to dry than synthetic alternatives. These shorts are lightweight, easy to pack, and suitable for travel, walking, and everyday summer use.

FAQs
What is the main material of the Coast Shorts?
The shorts are made from 98% cotton and 2% spandex, providing a comfortable feel with a bit of stretch.
Are these shorts suitable for hiking?

What does UPF 50+ mean?
UPF 50+ stands for Ultraviolet Protection Factor 50+. It indicates that the fabric blocks 98% of the sun's harmful UV rays, providing excellent sun protection.
How should I wash these shorts?
They are machine washable. Follow the care label instructions, typically using a gentle cycle and cold or lukewarm water with similar colors.
What is the warranty period for these shorts?
The shorts come with a 2-year warranty against manufacturing defects.
Can I wear these shorts for swimming?
While they are quick-drying for casual wear, they are not specifically designed as swimwear and may not offer the same performance or durability in chlorinated or saltwater as dedicated swimwear.
Are there other colors available?
Yes, the Mountain Warehouse Coast Shorts are available in various colors and styles, including different fits and materials, depending on the specific variant.
Troubleshooting
Shorts feel too tight or too loose.
Ensure you have selected the correct size based on the provided size chart. If the fit is still not ideal, consider trying a different size or style.
Fabric appears to be pilling after a few washes.
This can sometimes occur with cotton blends. To minimize pilling, wash inside out on a gentle cycle and avoid high heat tumble drying. Consider air drying.
Stitching coming undone.
Check the garment for defects. If the issue is due to a manufacturing fault within the warranty period, contact the retailer or manufacturer for a potential repair or replacement.
