FAQs
What does 'PFC-Free Hydrophobic Treatment' mean?
It means the fabric has been treated to repel water without using perfluorinated chemicals, making it environmentally friendlier. Water will bead up and roll off the surface, leading to quicker drying times.
What is the benefit of a 'Straight Leg Fit'?
A straight leg fit provides a classic, relaxed silhouette that offers good freedom of movement and is generally comfortable without being too tight or too loose.
How do I determine the correct size?
The size '34' refers to a men's waist size in UK inches. It's recommended to measure your waist and compare it to a standard sizing chart if available, or consider your usual fit in similar garments. Since the waist is fixed, accurate sizing is important.
Can I wear these for swimming and surfing?
Yes, these board shorts are designed for water activities like swimming and surfing, featuring quick-drying properties and a secure fit.
What is the outseam length?
The outseam length is 16 inches, which typically results in a mid-thigh length for most individuals.
Are there any pockets on these board shorts?
Typically, board shorts of this style may not feature traditional pockets for security and performance reasons during water activities. Please check the product details for specific pocket information.
Troubleshooting
Board shorts feel stiff after washing
Ensure you are washing with cold water and avoiding harsh detergents. Tumble dry on low or hang dry to maintain fabric softness.
Drawcord is difficult to adjust
Make sure the drawcord is not tangled and that the fabric around the eyelets is not frayed. If frayed, gently trim any loose threads.
Color fading after a few uses
Always rinse immediately after use, wash in cold water with like colors, and dry in the shade. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight when not in use.
