Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your adidas swim shorts maintain their performance and color, proper care is essential. After each use, rinse the shorts thoroughly in cool, fresh water to remove chlorine, salt, or sunscreen, which can degrade the polyester fibers over time. Avoid wringing the fabric aggressively; instead, gently press out excess water and air dry in a shaded area away from direct sunlight to prevent fading. Given the regular fit and elasticated waist, these shorts are highly compatible with most body shapes, though it is recommended to pull the internal drawstring tight before diving to ensure they remain secure.
