Troubleshooting

Water repellency seems reduced.

The water-repellent finish can diminish over time. Consider using a re-proofing spray suitable for outdoor apparel after washing according to care instructions.

Shorts feel tight or restrictive.

Ensure you have selected the correct size by checking the size guide. The stretch fabric offers some give, but proper sizing is key for comfort.

Color fading after washing.

Always wash dark colors separately for the first few washes. Follow the recommended washing temperature (30°C) and avoid harsh detergents to preserve color.
