FAQs
What is the main material of the Coast Shorts?
The primary material is typically a blend of cotton and spandex. For example, some variants are made of 98% cotton and 2% spandex to provide 4-Way-Stretch properties.
Are these shorts suitable for hiking?
Yes, they are suitable for light hiking on well-maintained trails due to their flexibility and lightweight nature. For more challenging terrain or extreme conditions, more specialized gear might be considered.
How much sun protection do these shorts offer?
The shorts provide UPF 50+ sun protection, which is a high level of defense against harmful UV radiation.
Can I wear these shorts for swimming?
While they are lightweight and quick-drying, they are not specifically designed as swimwear. They are best suited for casual wear and land-based activities.
What is the warranty period for these shorts?
The Mountain Warehouse Coast Shorts come with a 2-year warranty, covering guaranteed quality and peace of mind.
How do I know which size to order?
It is recommended to consult the specific sizing chart provided by Mountain Warehouse to find the best fit, as sizing can vary between apparel items.
Are all colors made of the same fabric blend?
While the core design is consistent, the exact fabric composition might have minor variations between different colors or specific product runs to achieve desired properties like stretch or texture.
Troubleshooting
Shorts feel too tight or restrictive
Ensure you have selected the correct size. If the fit is still too restrictive, consider if the specific colorway's material composition is suitable for your needs, as slight variations exist. The stretch fabric should offer some give.
Color fading after washing
Wash the shorts in cold water with a mild detergent. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight when drying; opt for line drying in the shade or tumble drying on low heat.
Fabric pilling after wear
Pilling can occur with natural fibers like cotton. To minimize this, wash the shorts inside out and avoid washing with abrasive items like denim or items with Velcro.
