FAQs
What does the 5-inch measurement refer to?
The 5-inch measurement refers to the inseam, which is the length of the shorts from the inner crotch seam to the bottom hem.
Can these shorts be worn as casual everyday wear?
Yes, thanks to the inclusion of side pockets and the athletic design, they can double as casual summer shorts.
Is the fabric stretchy?
These shorts are made of 100% polyester, which is durable and quick-drying, but it does not have the high-stretch characteristics of spandex blends.
How should I choose the right size?
These are in standard adult sizing. We recommend checking your waist measurement against the brand size guide, keeping in mind they feature an adjustable drawstring for fine-tuning.
Are these suitable for competitive swimming?
They are ideal for recreational and fitness swimming. While performance-oriented, competitive swimmers often prefer tighter, competition-specific jammers.
Troubleshooting
Drawstring feels stiff or hard to pull
Soak the waistband in warm water with a mild fabric softener to loosen the fabric fibers surrounding the drawstring.
Fabric retains a chlorine smell after washing
Add a half-cup of white vinegar to your rinse cycle to neutralize stubborn chlorine residue.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your swim shorts last as long as possible, follow these care instructions:
- Rinse Immediately: After every use in a pool or the ocean, rinse the shorts thoroughly with fresh, cold water to remove chlorine or salt.
- Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not use bleach or aggressive detergents that could degrade the polyester fabric.
- Air Dry Only: Lay the shorts flat or hang them to dry in a shaded area. High heat from tumble dryers can damage the elasticity of the waistband and the fabric finish.
- Storage: Ensure the shorts are completely dry before storing them in your gym bag to prevent odor and mildew buildup.
