Troubleshooting
Shorts feel tight after washing
Ensure you are washing at the recommended 30°C and not using a high heat tumble dryer, which can shrink cotton blends. Iron on a cool setting inside out if needed.
Colour seems to fade quickly
Wash the shorts inside out and separately, especially for the first few washes, and avoid harsh detergents or excessive soaking.
Elastic waistband feels loose
Ensure the shorts are not being over-dried in a tumble dryer or exposed to high heat. Gentle washing according to instructions should preserve elasticity.
Print (Shaun the Sheep) is peeling
Avoid ironing directly on the print. Always iron inside out on a cool setting. Do not use bleach or harsh cleaning agents.
